EBB provides groups of statusbar style indicators to show (de)buffs currently affecting your char or some other units (currently focus, pet and target). For the player, it can also show indicators for temporary enchants place on it's weapons.

Due to changes Blizzard made with WoW 4.x it's no longer possible to cancel buffs without the use of secure frames. Currently EBB limits canceling of buffs to out-of-fight since using SecureAuraHeader would have required a major code restructuring. This will be coming in a later version.

Version 2.x is a total recode based on the Ace2 framework which became necessary in order to support some of the longtime wanted and suggested features.
It's now possible to show different groups of bars which can be configured in many ways. Each group can be assigned an individual look and filter settings.
EBB can be configured via a dropdown menu which is accessible via chat (/ebb config), FuBar plugin or (for the group settings) by right clicking the groups anchor.
After setting up a group, its anchor can be hidden by alt-left clicking a bar or the anchor itself in order to lock the group in place.

In order to get additional bar textures and fonts for EBB simply install SharedMedia which is available for download under http://mods.curse.com/addons/wow/sharedmedia

Actually, it is safed but not restored correctly. This will be fixed in the WoW2.0 release.

Greetings Elkano,

I would like to extend my appreciation for this excellent buffbar mod. I use it exclusively and love it. I'd also echo patchtimer's request for upwards growth from a truly anchored spot. With the current build (r14740), if I set the anchor to BOTTOMLEFT, it actually does grow upwards, but in a slightly unpredictable way. I lock the EBB window in the lower lefthand quadrant on the screen, just above a damage meter window. If I apply poisons to mainhand/offhand (which creates 2 purple buff bars), and move EBB so that they are just above damage meters, other buffs will grow upwards from there. This position doesn't hold though. If I relog, the window will be in the right position, but as I start applying weapon buffs, they start growing downwards, overlapping the damage meters window again. I then have to drag the window back up... and repeat.

I hope this makes sense. It would be nice if in a future revision at some point, there was a way to set a bottom most anchor point and all buffs will grow upwards from there. No pressure! I use it, regardless of this, just a thought for the future. me lo ve y o u!

uninstall CT_BuffMod

EBB does hide the default frames, but some other evil mods out there are showing them again...

excellent add-on, however i'm wondering if there is a way to make the list grow upwards rather than down?

thanks.

it will be in the next big version since Ace2 has a profile system build in. Until then simply change the .toc file.

any chance of getting the Save By Character in this addon soon?

Cause i have 5 Chars and when i move it to one corner on 1 char it is on a totally other position on the next char. When i move the bar on the second char the bar is again on another place on char 1 and so on.

Its getting me crazy to rearrange the elkbuffbar every login with every char. :-(

would be glad if you got any time spare to spend on this...

thx in advance for any answer

could you possibly make this into a mod that works with elk buffbar? Like that runs along side of it, and save priority settings in its own variable file?

I've actually written the basic code that will make this work. It would have to be done language-by-language, and have an interface added to make it user friendly, but I have the basic functionality going.

Add this, maybe in a separate file to ease localization. (Right now I've just hacked it into the init function.

PriorityTableEn = {

["Prayer of Fortitude"] = 1,
["Power Word: Fortitude"] = 1,
["Gift of the Wild"] = 1,
["Mark of the Wild"] = 1,
["Arcane Brilliance"] = 1,
["Arcane Intellect"] = 1,
["Prayer of Spirit"] = 1,
["Divine Spirit"] = 1,

["Greater Blessing of Kings"] = 2,
["Blessing of Kings"] = 2,
["Greater Blessing of Light"] = 2,
["Blessing of Light"] = 2,
["Greater Blessing of Might"] = 2,
["Blessing of Might"] = 2,
["Greater Blessing of Salvation"] = 2,
["Blessing of Salvation"] = 2,
["Blessing of Sacrifice"] = 2,
["Greater Blessing of Sanctuary"] = 2,
["Blessing of Sanctuary"] = 2,
["Greater Blessing of Wisdom"] = 2,
["Blessing of Wisdom"] = 2,
}
Then add this for your sort function

local function buffssort_bypriority(a,b)
if (not a or not b) then
return true
end


if PriorityTableEn[b[2]] == nil then
if PriorityTableEn[a[2]] == nil then
if a[4] == b[4] then
return a[2] < b[2]
else
return a[4] > b[4]
end
else
return true
end
end


if PriorityTableEn[a[2]] == nil then
return false
end


if PriorityTableEn[a[2]] < PriorityTableEn[b[2]] then
return true
end

if PriorityTableEn[a[2]] > PriorityTableEn[b[2]] then
return false
end

return a[2] < b[2]

end
Then just update your options/calls to enable the sort by priority.

As you can see this first sorts by priority then timemax, then alpha.

I'll also work with my guild on a more comprehensive priority list.

There's one other "dream" feature that I've been thinking of for this:

The mod could scan the raid and count the number of paladins. Compare that to the number of blessings you have on you. If you have fewer blessings than pallies, show placeholder "missing blessing" buffs that are red or something.

So if there were 4 pallies in the raid, but you only had two blessings, it might look like this:


Greater Blessing of Wisdom 0:14
Greater Blessing of Salvation 0:14
[Missing 2 Blessings]
