ShieldWatch

Version: 1.0.4
by: guyofgarithos [More]

ShieldWatch will add a bar to your screen displaying the total amount of damage you can absorb with spells such as Power Word: Shield, or Death Strike's Blood Shield (examples, covers any shield buff with a fixed absorb amount). It can be locked/unlocked as well as resized. It gets shields by reading your buff tooltips, very lightweight.

ShieldWatch commands:
/shieldwatch - show help
/shieldwatch [lock/unlock] - sets bar's moving state
/shieldwatch setwidth (50-250) - set bar's width
/shieldwatch setheight (16-80) - set bar's height

Sadly I will be taking a break from WoW, so I will not be able to update my addons. I hope to be back soon, but until then, anyone who creates addons, please feel free to take over it.

1.0.3 - Sunday, May 15
Added shield timer to right side of bar, displaying the remaining time on your shortest-duration shield.

1.0.2 - Tuesday, May 10
Added a shield count to left side of bar, displaying the number of shields you have up.

1.0.1 - Thursday, May 5
Call me stupid, but I was under the impression there was a maximum of 16 buffs. ShieldWatch didn't read any buffs past the 16th. Increased this to 40.

ShieldWatch looks for buffs with "absorb" in the tooltip. It displays Savage Defense just fine on my druid. There are 2 reasons I can think of why it wouldn't be working for you: either you have another addon stomping on the tooltips, or it's not in English. If someone will tell me what the tooltip says for absorbs in other languages, I'll add checking for that.

Currently you only see the bar when you have a shield up. I'll make it visible upon unlocking and post an update shortly.
