ShieldsUp  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 6.0.3.48
by: Phanx [More]

2016/07/29 — I do not plan to update ShieldsUp for Legion, as shaman shields no longer exist in a meaningful form in the game.
ShieldsUp monitors your Earth Shield, Water Shield, and Lightning Shield.
  • Easy-to-read plain text display
  • Shows your active shields, their remaining charges*, and the name of your Earth Shield target
  • Optional text and sound alerts when one of your shields expires or is removed
  • Condensed display while solo (or for shamans without Earth Shield)
  • Support for all colorblindness modes
  • Support for custom fonts and sounds via LibSharedMedia-3.0 media packs
* Note that Water Shield and Lightning Shield will display a "W" or "L", respectively, except for elemental shamans, who will see a number for Lightning Shield when they have at least one extra charge.

Type “/sup” for options, or browse to the ShieldsUp panel in the standard Interface Options window.
Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Why isn’t ShieldsUp monitoring my Earth Shield?
A: ShieldsUp only monitors Earth Shield when it’s cast on yourself, or on a player or pet in your party or raid group. There is no way for addons to reliably monitor buffs cast on units who are not in your group, so ShieldsUp doesn’t try.
Q: Why am I only seeing one charge counter?
A: ShieldsUp switches to a single-counter display when you are solo, or if you don’t have the Earth Shield talent, since in either situation it’s only possible for you to have one shield active on a target ShieldsUp can monitor.
Feedback
Post a ticket on GitHub or post a comment on this page. If you are reporting a problem, please read this first. If you are requesting a feature, please note that I consider ShieldsUp to be complete, and will probably not add any new features.
Language Support
Works in all languages. Translated into English, Deutsch, Español, Français, Italiano (partial), Português, Русский, 한국어 (partial), 简体中文, and 繁體中文. You can add or update translations for any language on the CurseForge project page.

Accessing Sounds

Hi, love the addon. I am just trying to find out more about the sounds that are accessible in the dropdown list. I know that they are part of the SharedMedia library and are not within the ShieldsUp folder however I cannot for the life of me find whereabouts these sounds are anywhere in my addons folder. Are they accessed from some embedded file and not a .mp3 or .wav file?

Thanks for the help,
Bugsilius
