Buff/Debuff timers/icons/bars

Carde · September 2015

Anyone know a good addon for buff/debuff timers that actually works right now (post-IC patch)?

FTC's timers is the only part of it I can see broken, and all the others on ESOUI haven't been updated in a looong time.

I use @Garkin 's update of Srendarr. Afaik, it is updated to include the new API functions (at least it displays a shipload of information now, way more than before) and it works like a charm.

That's the one I liked the look of the most, but the last update was on 4/20/15 and I was seeing a lot of very recent comments saying it was not really working right. You say it is, though?

Ah, didn't see that... Thought it was already updated.

But yes, it works, no errors no nothing. Maybe @Garkin could update us on whether he will publish another update in lieu of the original author...

Alright, I'll give it a try tomorrow. Thanks for the input!

Would love to hear @Garkin's answer to that also as the addon looks really good.

It seems that patches don't always affect all addons. Some of mine have been showing as out of date since I got them and they still work perfectly.

I've not thoroughly tested it but Srendarr seems to be working as normal with the new build, and it's definitely my favourite for showing buffs and debuffs - mainly because it blends in well with the default UI and it's highly customisable.

Yeah been using it today. Some of the timers are off (exploitation off the top of my head seems to be tracked longer than it actually lasts in my character sheet) and I'm sure it won't show new buffs like the Hidden Blade Major Brutality one, but its going to get the job done for now for sure.

I also just want to take this time to say that finding a way to track buff/debuff durations shouldn't be this hard. I hope @ZOS_RichLambert is my hero and eventually ushers in some of those UI improvements. You can make them minimal and still fit the simplistic UI so well (think SkyUI style for the buff/debuff timers).

Minimap
Buff/Debuff timers
Mouseover tooltip information for all of the things. Seriously. There's so many buffs and effects we get hit with that say nothing in their tooltip that they might as well just say "???" in them instead of the name of the effect.

^ All I want. I don't even care about nameplates unless they keep track of debuffs I apply to enemies somewhere on them.

edit: Added bonus for also letting us move UI elements (example: unlocking and dragging the quest tracker window somewhere else, or moving the resource bars more center screen if we want, etc).

I can't help with the rest but for this download Azurah. It lets you move and re-size all parts of the default UI and it's probably one of my favourite addons, mainly for that reason.
