Gift-Of-Nurgle Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 I am playing a hatred assassin, a big part of what I do is damage over time. I can't seem to see any visual representation of the effects though, so I'm never sure when to reapply. At the moment it's not that big of a deal as I rarely fight anything where it doesn't die really fast anyway, but when I start doing harder content I'm gonna need to know when to reapply my DOTS. Is it a case of just learning a rotation and sticking to that, or is there any ways past counting in your head or using a metronome to time these dots right? I mean surely there should be some visual cue as well? am I just missing it? if it doesn't exist or is hard to spot, is there any way to augment it. can we use plug in's in this game?

CrazyScruffy Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 (edited) you can see any DOT you put on an enemy. and you can visually see when said Dot/s will expire. you can also make them larger or smaller, in the interface editor.

tuulem Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 The only place you can see the debuffs you put on something is on the unit frame. There's no way (that I can find) to have them over the nameplates. You can change how the unit frame shows you debuffs in the interface editor. Open it and click on the Target Frame. There you can change the layout of the buffs/debuffs, including size and different ways to sort them. Unfortunately, unlike the player buffs/debuffs, target ones are tied to the unit frame and can't be moved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tuulem Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 (edited) The thing shows you the portrait and health/power bars of the person you've got targeted. Some pics, if that helps. Yeah, I know my UI is weird, I have a naga and it works for me. https://imgur.com/a/vvW2BRm Edited May 16, 2018 by tuulem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocDAM Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 Judging from your capture, by "unit frame", you mean "target frame". Yeah, that's the only way I knew. My caveat on this is that (and please correct me if I'm wrong) it shows everyone's debuffs on the target. And it gets so cluttered against a boss that, at least to me, it gets indecipherable quickly. Also, no timer indication (like you can have on your own ability cooldowns). Though you can sort so yours show first. OP: it's worth playing with and maybe you'll find it does all you are looking for. YOu get access to it from the Interface Editor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gift-Of-Nurgle Posted May 18, 2018 Author Share Posted May 18, 2018 thanks. I worked out where you guys meant the symbols were popping up. not played in any groups yet so not had any issues with other players powers getting in the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
