Change Log:
--------------------
2.20 03/17/2013
** TOC Bump
** Should announce to INSTANCE_CHAT instead of Raid/Party where appropriate. (As requested)
2.17 10/26/2012
** More changes to the AD LDB tooltips. Most of the work was from ntex, based on Theck's theorycrafting.
** An addon I used for all these years finally broke. As a stopgap measure, I have added a 'quickmarks' ability to this addon. If enabled in settings, holding ALT and CONTROL while mousing over targets will mark them in order of Skull, X, Square, etc. Basically in reverse order of the default UI. This is still in testing, I threw it together in 15 minutes and it has not been extensively tested. Use at your own risk. Typing /ad reset will reset the tags.
** Fixed UI errors in raid chat (I think) .
2.16 09/06/2012
** Bugfixes for UI errors from UnitIsLeader()
** Added some addition info to tooltip: Parry to Dodge ratio. Now that Dodge and Parry are on very different diminishing returns. Let me know if this helps or not helps. Thanks ntex.
2.15 09/02/2012
** Replaced Divine Guardian with Devotion Aura.
2.14 Beta 08/30/2012
** 5.04 compatibility changes and TOC Bump.
** Some things may be broken, will fix problems are they are found.
** Note that this absolutely breaks compatibility with any previous version of WoW. (Mists compatibile ONLY)
2.13 12/05/11
** 4.3 Compatibility and TOC bump..
2.12 07/02/11
** 4.2 compatibility changes. Interrupt announcer works properly now.
** Avenger shield misses are handled a little differently, you can choose what channel (Raid, Party, Local, Yell) or disable it.
2.10 05/11/11
** Fixed the bug causing the report statistics to channel to not work (Shift-click LDB object)
** Fixed bug causing taunt to announce to channel even when disabled if basic mode was enabled.
2.09: 05/08/11
** Fixed blocks, absorbs, taunt watcher, parry watcher, etc. that were also broken in 4.1 and I didn't notice.
** Added new statistics by request: Will now track how m...
Description:
--------------------
Ardent Defender is an addon designed to help Protection Paladins.
It provides several functions which I found useful as a Tankadin,
and hope someone else finds them useful as well.
Ardent Defender will:
- Announces when Ardent Defender proc's and saves your life, as well as flashing your screen and shaking it to alert you to the averted death.
- Detects and tells you when someone causes a parry on an NPC you are tanking. Also tells you if you cause a parry on an NPC someone else is tanking.
- Announces bubblewall usage (when it activates and when it fades)
- Announce if your taunt fails (and why) or if your Avenger Shield misses.
- Tracks combat stats such as damage received, damage blocked, damage absorbed.
- Makes use of LibDataBroker if you have it, to display combat stats and Ardent Defender info.. see screenshots to see what I mean.
- Tracks & Whispers on usage: Hand of Protection, Sacrifice, Salvation,
Freedom. also Divine Guardian, Divine Intervention, Guardian of Ancient Kings and Lay On Hands.
- (Disabled by default) Can annoy you with red screen slashing if Righteous Fury is not active AND you are currently wearing defense gear.
- Will not announce or track any of the above while in a Battleground, but will work normally while in an Arena.
- The LDB object displays combat statistics such as how much damage you have absorbed, blocked and received, how many times (since reload)
Ardent Defender has saved your life, as well as how much Ardent Defender will heal you upon proc, how much damage Divine Sacrifice absorbs, and more..
Feel free to leave good or bad comments. I will take reasonable requests under consideration.
Type "/ad" to bring up the Options panel, or right click the LDB object.
Addon can also be enabled/disabled with "/ad standby" command.
Enjoy..
