Totem Addon

I've recently rolled a shaman and I'm looking for something specific.
Something sorta like the way zhuntermod operates I believe. Its been a while since I used that.

I want a totem mod that has my totem call, my earth, fire, water, and air and my totem recall on one bar. Thats easy to find.
Though I'd like to be able to mouseover each totem and see a pop up list of each totem I know thats, say, an earth totem. And from that pop up list I can click the totem and it replaces the one on my totem bar.

Might be alot to ask for >.<

My friend suggested totemtimers. But its spammy as all. Has a bunch of things I do not need.

Right now I'm using one totem bar and then have an action bar right beside each different type of totem thats hidden till mouseover.
Its a bit clunky. It serves the purpose but I'm hoping there is something out there that does it in a pop up so i can stop using all these dang buttons.

Oh and if it updates on its own. So when i learn a new totem/rank I dont have to update the hidden bars. That would be amazing

Thanks
Unkn

The default totem bar used in combination with another addon like InlineAura would do this for you. Honestly, the default totem bar is really well done.

Here's a picture of my Shaman's totem bar. This is the default Blizzard totem bar. My bar mod is Bartender4 and the highlight and timer is InlineAura.

Does the default bar show all the totems available to that particular type of totem?

Thats kinda what I'm missing.

I moved grid and took my bars with all my totems off mouseover-show to show you what I mean.



Green box - yay photoshop! - is the mouseover bars. My grid is normally sitting there on all my other toons. So right now totems are really cramping my ui.

I'd like to be able to use the totem bar with dominos. Which I am currently doing, but I'd like to be able to get rid of all these buttons all over my screen. Right now if I want to switch totem on totem bar I mouseover a bar, grab the totem put it on the totem bar and move the one i just picked up back up to the hidden bars. I've lost totems so many times its not even funny, had to go searching thru the spell book again for them.

Would be ideal if I could find a mod that functions like the Blizzard totem bars, where I can "load" a totem into it press my call of the elements and bam 4 totems down, but also has the ability to mouseover each totem to see all the totems of that type and select the one I want in that slot.

PS. Yes I know some of the totems are in 2 places in my screenshot. I'm trying to stream line atm. It was getting out of hand. I'm sure you all know how lvling is.

When you mouseover the different element types in the default totem bar you get a little up arrow (picture). Clicking on the arrow pops up a list of all of the totems of that element type. Clicking on totem of that element changes the currently selected call to include the chosen totem.

So do you have the Blizzard totem bar disabled with Dominoes right now?

And theres a reason to use bartender. I'm using the dominos totem bar. It does not do that

Thanks for the help man!

Best solution i got with totems was atotembar in combo with stotemtimers.

I only use one totemset and change that one too whatever totems i want and got that call bound too a key (never had any need too have the other calls. usually its the same totems you drop. or you can change the current setup before encounters or w/e)

Atotembar i had hidden on mouseover.. it works like the blizzard totemmanager with dropout bar too choose totems.

Stotemtimers are basicly just icon and timers (flashing when short duration) on the actual totems you got down, i use this because it shows me the timer of the totems i got up.. even if i use totems midfight with hotkeys (grounding,tremor,cleansing) most totem manager addons doesn't show me that. of the ones i've tried.

Gl with finding what's best for ya.. totems can be a mess if you want it clean :P

Bartender doesn't change the default totem bar functionality at all, it just lets you move it around the screen. Unlike the other action bars which Bartender lets you completely change. Sounds like Dominoes is somehow messing the totem bar up. Might be something to let Tuller know about.

Anyway...

I use the totem bar to set up my calls that I use all the time. The situational totems like Grounding and Tremor I either have keybound or in a spot I can click on. I don't play my Shaman a huge amount though.

If you don't like what the above poster suggested here's some other links:
