PetEmote currently doesnt work but I'm sure it'll get fixed.
Re: New addons for new hunters, the hunt is on
I'm curious to give pet emote a try.
I was referring more to the practical addons for heroics and raiding.

I use OmniCC, which I'd recommend to anyone in a heartbeat. It's awesome to have massive numbers telling you exactly when you can use a spell again.
Aside from that, I think I just need to familiarise myself with the proc notifications they put in-game. Seems most of the procs (at least for BM) are covered, so I just need to know what it means when I get a bundle of arrows on either side and such.

Oh, that sounds handy!The Insect Man wrote:I've picked up one called HunterFocusBar that gives you a draggable bar showing focus, all very simple but invaluable for managing the new resource.
I only use Petemote and Autodecline (automatically declines guild charter requests, duel requests and so on) but that sounds like a great addon to have as well.
Goes off addon hunting....

Re: New addons for new hunters, the hunt is on
That reminds me, has anyone tried out the new spell alert feature? I'm curious as to how much this overlaps with things like powerauras, e.g. is it going to do to them what the built-in threat-o-meter did to (some) threat meter addons?Saturo wrote:I would recommend Parrot. Together with the built in PowerAuras, you get a good-looking, and effective procalerter. I would also suggest whatever unitframe is used in LUI, as it shows focus quite nicely for me.

Basically tells you what raid buffs you're missing. Looks like it hasn't had an update since 3.3.3.
May just rely on the raid leader to point out if we're missing some obscure buff. Is this what if feels like to be a shaman?
HunterFocusBar looks really handy, especially with the proc icons.
Off topic, but did anyone ever find out what carrion birds ability was changed to?

Re: New addons for new hunters, the hunt is on
Yup. Well, you quickly learn. Around level 50 or so, when you really start getting a ton of totems, it feels daunting to keep track and uncertain in terms of what to use when... but you learn. By the time I was healing Outlands dungeons, I knew what to drop what.Paurixote wrote:Is this what if feels like to be a shaman?
Someone on these forums is developing a hunter pet buff/debuff addon that'll tell you what buffs aren't covered in your group/raid and which of your pets would provide it. I think we'll see a post when she's finished with it.

Personally, I need something to make me be more aware of that damn Imp Steady Shot when I am running around as marksman.

It puts a bar in the middle of your screen (not movable, unfortunately) that also flashes procs.

Re: New addons for new hunters, the hunt is on
Not sure if it's exactly what you're after, but you could have a look at RaidChecklist which I'm currently in the process of building. It's based on the excellent spreadsheets maintained by Malazee over in this thread. It doesn't track what buffs are applied/used, only what could be applied provided the players know what they're doing.Paurixote wrote:I was looking for something like this in reference to buffs:

Not so far as I'm aware. Still waiting to find out about them and the beetles.Off topic, but did anyone ever find out what carrion birds ability was changed to?

Re: New addons for new hunters, the hunt is on
For general wow addons, I think I'm using bagon, silverdragon, bartender, x-perl and recount. Might be more but eh, haven't been paying too much attention to addons lol.

Probly easier to read the features list, but to explain:
What the addon does is put a colored box around your button for buff and debuff abilities when used. So if u have HM up on the target there's a red box around it. Also, if its up but from another hunter it'll show up as yellow instead letting you know its up but someone else is managing it. Works for serpent sting, venom, etc.
For buffs u get a green box around while the buffs active, so for say BW the button will be green till the effect wears off. Works for targeting friendly players too, to know what buffs you have on them.
Also, most importantly it gives a tiny little timer at the bottom of each button letting you know how much longer the buff/debuff lasts. This is really invaluable for keeping Serpent up, knowing when buffs will fade, and timing LnL procs even. Also, it has another small colored number for stacks on stackable debuffs etc.
Has a few nice options for timers MM:SS and colors etc. and works well on any char outta the box.
I'd also recommend quartz for a moveable cast bar especially the autoshot bar, and it's helpful for timing SS casts.
