Cooldown timers/ HUDs?
Posted: Fri Oct 21, 2016 8:57 am
I'm NOT a min/maxer.
I'm not a raider for whom the absolute maximum DPS is a required thing.
I don't calculate anything...
If the mob dies, I'm doing good.
If I die, I'm not doing good.
So, that said:
I love the graphics in WoW, it's cartoonish, sure, but it's also beautiful. And the Legion zones are gorgeous.
Encounters with mobs also hold a certain visual appeal.
Except I never get to actually SEE the encounters because I'm too busy watching my action bar to make sure I don't miss Dire Beast or Bestial Wrath coming off cooldown.
I don't know what add-on to look for to help with this.
It would be nice to have something that flashes in the middle of my screen when those two spells are off cooldown, something that tells me that my auto-attack crits have triggered a "free" Dire Beast, or that enough Dire Beasts have been called that my Bestial Wrath is available now.
I've tried a few add-ons, but most are simply too arcane for me to understand (the game makes me feel smart and wily, the add-ons make me feel like a complete dunce).
I don't want to see my pet's abilities come off cooldown when they just automatically use them anyways.
I don't want to see abilities that I barely use or that are very situational come off cooldown either.
I just need a minimum of information, mostly regarding Dire Beast, and Bestial Wrath.
Could someone please suggest an add-on that won't make me feel like an idiot, that could help with this?
I've tried:
SPTimers
SexyCooldown
Doom Cooldown Pulse
Ice HUD
I can't make heads or tails out of a couple of those, and the others don't seem to work "as advertised" (for example one of them doesn't allow me to drag abilities off its cooldown bar, which it clearly says in the "help" file you can do).
