Skada Damage Meter  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 1.8.2
by: zarnivoop, funkydude, oscarucb

Skada is a modular damage meter with various viewing modes, segmented fights and customizable windows. It aims to be highly efficient with memory and CPU.

Usage

When you first start using Skada, there will be a window created by default. This window can be extensively customized in Skada's configuration panel; click the little cog icon to access a menu, and then click Configure. Depending on your user interface, there may also be a minimap button allowing quick access to this menu.

Skada supports multiple windows. To create a new window, click Windows in the addon's configuration panel. There are three built-in types of windows - Bar, Inline, and Data text. Bar is the classic damage meter window, and is very customizable. Inline shows the meter in a horizontal line, which can be useful for integration in custom user interfaces. Data text shows just one item at a time, and can also be displayed by any LDB display addon, such as Titan Panel, ChocolateBar, or ElvUI.

In the normal Bar window, you can left click on specific items for more detailed information, and right click for less details. At the very "top" is the list of all saved fight segments. Some data modes have several detailed information views. In this case you choose alternate views by holding certain keys pressed while clicking. For example, in Damage mode, you can Shift-click a player to see what enemies the player caused damage to. Tooltips will display how to reach the different views.

You can also use window buttons for selecting fight segment and mode directly.

Scrolling in Skada is done with the mousewheel.

Plugins

Skada is very easy to extend, and there are many extra plugin addons out there that add functionality, such as:

One quirk.

I love this addon a lot, but one thing I'm wondering.

When I first started using this addon, upon mousever of a certain spell in my damage breakdown, it would show me the average and max hit for each spell on my tooltip, now it seems to have been disabled. Where in the options can I renable this?

I love using this addon over recount/omen, just that little bit has me a bit annoyed. Thanks.

You must have been using the wowace development version. It should be fixed in 1.2-8.

Hey,

I'm afraid I have another question/suggestion. Is there any way how to change font color? I can't find it in settings and I'd like to use something different than white.

awesome addon but 2 things let me going crazy :P

Hey there

awesome addon...i replaced omen and recount since they arent neccessary anymore

but 2 things let me going a bit crazy all the time..

first of all if i click a person in either dmg or healing (got 2 windows while in combat since im a healer) it will show someone totaly different...for example we do a malygos fight and i click the top dps'er atm then it will show the dmg actions from someone whos place 10 or smth...same with healing....sometimes this proble occured aswell after fight while out of combat...can only be solved by rightclicking into the "current fight/total" box and then back to current fight's dmg/healing

and the 2nd one is the percentage on healing and dps....i dont need the % from the top ppl..only things i care for r hps/dps/total and the name....

can those 2 things fixed anyhow so i'd be the luckiest guy in wow, for sure!

keep on the with the good work

Awesome addon and would be exactly what I need with one feature

Skada is a wonderful addon! I've replaced both recount and omen with it. If I could suggest one feature and get it included it would be perfect.

I've suggested this before to the Omen folks but it was never implemented. I'd like a tanking mode threat notification. Basically it would notify you who was creeping up on your threat, thereby giving you a chance to counter before they pull off you.

Sometimes it's not practical to be watching your threat the entire fight and that seems to be when the DPS like to steal aggro. If you could implement something like this that would be awesome.

Thanks!

Hey,

I'm not quite sure if someone else already haven't suggested it already, but…

In „General options“ tab, there's „Hide when solo“ checkbox. I was wondering if there's any possibility to add another checkbox, „Hide in battlegrounds and arenas“, please? I really don't need to know my DPS while in BG

Edit: I have just found /skada toggle command. That could do the trick for now, but automatic showing/hiding would be of course much better

This has been said before, but the max bar count setting is still not capping the number of bars displayed in any module. Thanks for this awesome addon otherwise!

I love this addon, except for one nagging issue which is the fact it doesn't sort the bars properly when you switch to reverse growth. Sorry if it's a known bug already, great addon!

Friendly Fire

I'm not sure if a friendly fire module is in the works or not, but could a config option be added to filter out friendly fire from the Damage and/or DPS views?

It is never really interesting to compare overall damage done between players if some of the totals include things like damage done with gravity bomb or light bomb on XT-002.

It may be interesting to see the specific friendly fire numbers in a separate view, of course, where you can drill down and see what abilities they used to do the friendly fire damage, but...

Thanks,
