Okay. |
http://www.curse-gaming.com/mod.php?addid=3103 This mod displays a bar with the time (to the tenth of a second) until an enemy's spell is cast and is usually very accurate. I had a chance to really test it in BWL tonight, and it made catching the wing buffets at just the right time much easier. It also works on things like Chromaggus' breaths. |

This is a huge advantage in pvp, as well. I've been using it for about a week now and its incredibly helpful to a) give you a heads up on what spell is coming your way, b) let you take preventative measures (ie, if its a Frostbolt or Fireball then try to get behind them so the spell fails, or put up the appropriate Ward), and c) perfectly time any countering measures (counterspell, kick, shield bash, silence, etc) - its always more satisfying to interrupt the spell within its last 1/2 second, when they've already wasted 80% of the cast time stationary and vulnerable, than to CS them right off the bat and give them those 2 sec back to get out of the way or flee! I haven't had much opportunity to test it on PvE mobs or bosses with non-instant-cast spells, but if it works as well for them as it does for PvP, then it would be a really, really helpful addon in many situations. --

This addon is fucking awesome. PVP it is godlike. For a healer, it's esp. handy when you're keeping HOTs up on folks. |

It's so awesome I'm not going to use it. No, really, it's too awesome. It's like that drug-thingy-that-you-don't-want-to-stop something or other. I'm losing INtellect just tooling with it. -Crissa |

Yeah I love this addon too. Hey it let me use my ice deflector once in AV. Sure, it didn't really do much more than surprise the mage but that's worth it all. (And it does show boss channeling as well.) --

Yup, its quite useful in case a timer you really need from a boss is off by a few seconds --

Did they fix the bug that caused you to randomly switch targets?

Also works great as a Banish timer. Tells you when mob will break banish, as long as you have it selected as your target. | |

This one just got updated, it now includes timers for just about every DoT in the game (Serpent Sting and SW:Pain! Woot!) --

This ought to be a required addon for BWL raiding. It's up there with CTRaid in usefulness. |

I think so, you should try it out... Although, I do know that the timer for Shadow Word Pain, for some reason, starts about 2 seconds after I cast it instead of right away... so they'll probably patch it up again soon. --
