So I've had tons of people tell me about PallyPower and all it's magnificense. I could see how it's convenient with a lot of pallies around, but it's usually just me, or me and Killean so it's not too bad. Anyhow, i was talking to Killean about the mod I use tonight, and I wanted to show him and everyone else so it makes slightly more sense about how ridiculously easy it is for me. This is what I see during a raid, when everyone is buffed and I don't have anything missing. It grous people by class, and then alphabetically. It'll put abbreviations of what's going on with them next to them, like soul stone (SS), innervate (Inn), etc. Also, when they're debuffed (poison, curse, etc.), it'll put those abbreviations by their name and highlight their bar with the color of the class of magic of the debuff. It's pretty nifty. This is what it looks like when buffing needs to happen. I'm usually on Kings, which is why I left it there tonight, but all I do is tell it which class gets what that night, and when that class doesn't have that certain buff, that little abbreviation will pop up next to their name. And since I watch that bar to heal anyway, I see it constantly. Anyway, it's clearly not for everyone, but I like it a lot, and it was easier and more compatible with my setup than PallyPower. But, they just updated it and it doesn't break PallyPower anymore, so I have it anyway, just for Killean.

"Ofie's Divine Intervention instantly kills Ofie." "Ofie dies." I like that.

lol, thanks man whatever works for you is fine, but keep PP just so you can see any changes if another pally steps out or someting. Plus it does glorious ten minute blessings for our numerous druids and their numerous needs . Great UI btw

Just to throw in my two cents - the value of pallypower isn't being able to view the raids buffs & durations, but rather the assignment of blessings. Granted it can be easy when there's only 1 or 2 pallies and it's pretty much kings and salv, but it's super helpful to have one pally in charge of setting it up, and let the rest visually see which pally is doing what.

Yeah I know. I can definitely see that being helpful with multiple pallies, but recently it's been just me, me and Scionn, or us two and Killean. Pallies ftw.

Also, Pally Power is neat, because it holds people accountable for their buffs. If someone is cryin in raid for 5 mintues that they need Salv, it is really easy for all pallys to be able to find out who is slackin. Its a lot easier to whisp 1 person and say "Hey buff Ofie" than it is to chance it gettin lost in raid text.
