MyThreat  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 1.6.5
by: Brimm [More]

MyThreat is a simple compact threat information frame containing only the most essential data. It is designed to be a summary of the current threat situation - basically "how does threat relate to me RIGHT NOW".

Threat is automatically adjusted for Mirror Image and Fade.

There are three modes of operation:

  • Standard mode:
    • Main use: Default behavior. Shows your threat relative to the person who currently has aggro on your target.
    • The percentage value represents your threat relative to the current tank's threat.
    • The threat difference represents the difference between your threat and the current tank's threat.
    • The name is that of the current target's tank.
  • Focus mode
    • Main use: On fights with multiple tanks where the DPSers need to stay below all of them (ex: Gruul, Void Reaver, Gurtogg, Eredar Twins).
    • The percentage value represents your threat relative to the person on the focus list with the lowest threat.
    • The threat difference represents the difference between your threat and the person on the focus list with the lowest threat.
    • The name is that of the person on the focus list with the lowest threat.
    • Enabled via a slash command ("/myt focus set TankA,TankB" to set, "/myt focus" to clear).
    • Cleared via a slash command ("/myt focus clear").
    • Set to automatically adjust to the raid's Main Tanksm as set via the Blizzard raid UI ("/myt focus tanks").
  • Tank mode:
    • Main use: Being able to see who is about to surpass you on threat and determine rapidly your thread lead relative to the other raid members.
    • The percentage value represents the person with the 2nd highest threat's relative threat compared to yours.
    • The threat difference represents your lead on the 2nd highest person on the threat list.
    • The name is that of the 2nd highest person on the threat list.
    • Enabled via the interface options or a slash command.

The values are color coded based on level of danger of pulling threat. All values (absolute threshold, relative threshold, alpha) for threat levels can be customized via a slash command (/mythreat or /myt) or the Interface->AddOns menu.

All threat information is obtained via the WoW Threat API. This AddOn is not meant as a replacement to Omen but rather as a supplement, allowing you to have summary information on your current threat situation at a glance while ignoring that of others.

1.6.5:
-Increased the maximum threat thresholds to 200,000 (up from 50,000).
------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.6.4:
-Fixes for patch 4.0.1.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.6.3:
-Adjusted frame alpha to always be full during Mirror Image / Fade instead of falling back to the "safe" alpha value.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.6.2:
-Fixed a problem with threat adjustment during Mirror Images and Fade.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.6.1:
-Fixed global variable leakage.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.6:
-Added support for custom alpha transparency based on threat level.
-Increased the maximum absolute threat for any range to 50000 (up from 20000).
------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.5.3:
-Updated TOC for WoW 3.3 patch.
-Updated version of Ace3 library to version 3.3.

-Revamped focus mode. /mythreat focus now has three options: set (to set a manual list, much like it worked previously), clear (which removes the current focus list) and tank, a new mode, that sets the focus list to mirror the raid's Main Tank list (as set by the default raid UI).
------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.4:
-Threat is now adjusted when Fade and Mirror Image is in effect (enabled/disabled via interface options).
------------------------------------------------------------------------

-Fixed Focus mode.
-Optimized display update code.
------------------------------------------------------------------------

-Changed the standard mode to hide when player is the one tanking target.
-Fixed an issue with threat range colors.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.3:
-Moved from Threat-2.0 to the WoWAPI for threat information.
-Changed standard mode to always compare to current tank rather than current target.
-Added profile support to the addon interface options.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.2:
-Added a new "tank mode" that can be enabled via the options.
-Added a new "focus mode" that can be set and cleared via a slash command.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.1:
-No significant changes other than updating Threat-2.0 version.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.0:
-Initial release.

If you no longer support this addon you should consider marking it as such, and removing the donation option. :/

This does not mean it cannot be supported. Omen shows how the COMBAT_LOG_EVENT_UNFILTERED event can be used to evaluate threat while mirror images are up. It is more implementation work, sure, but it can be done.

If the author is willing to work on it, I could give some pointers in Omen.lua which show how to do it.

In this age now of 60-70k crits and more, perhaps you could expand the threat thresholds beyond 50k? Thank you.

God I love this mod. I remember using the focus tank mode back in Black Temple.

@sivid13 -Why would you need a sound alert? Can't see this mod on-screen? Keep it simple.

Thanks for this one Brimm, awesome mod.

Hi, would you mind adding a sound alert for whenever my threat gets to X% of the tank's? MyThreat is really simple and useful, thanks!

Great addon and thank you for the hard work, but Headcase111 is correct. The issue with mirror image is still ongoing even in the newest version and would be totally cool if you fixed it

Pretty sure that was fixed with the latest version. You should redownload it and give it a try!

A great addon! However .. since 4.0.3, whenever I use Mirror Image on my mage the threat display changes to, and stays at, 0% and doesn't change to blue colour. With the result that I have no idea what my current threat is, and have pulled from the tank on a couple of occasions. Many thanks again for your work on this addon, it's so much better than all the others.

I'm glad you like it!

I don't get to use it as much as I used to (seeing as how I don't raid much these days) but I'll try to keep it up to date with the current versions for as long as I play WoW

Thanks for continuing development on this; it is a great addon for people that don't want all the info of Omen.
