Indicator module for the Penetrating Cold debuff on Anub'arak.
The Penetrating Cold targets need to be healed in a very timely fashion. As a result each person with the debuff needs to have specific healers with a specific plans to deal with it. One option for dealing with this would be to have one person running a boss mod that sets raid icons and assign healers to the icons. The problem with this is that for anyone other than the person marking the delay is the marks latency + half of your own latency. If you both have 200 ms latency that's nearly a 3rd of a second before you can start healing the debuff.
An alternative strategy is to have all the PC healers setup their raid frames to sort the same way and then they count to their assignments. For example on person might take the 1st and 2nd marks, another might take the 3rd and another could take the 4th and 5th marks.
This works well and is fast but if your healers are using various different raid frames you may find yourself reconfiguring all the time because this person can't sort their frames this way or that way.
This module for PitBull4 solves the problem by allowing you to set the way you want the group sorted and your assignments for Penetrating Cold. The icon for the debuff is then shown as an indicator on only your assignments. There is an option to announce to the raid what the assignments were, which is useful for figuring out who was on the wrong target (but is turned off by default).

Shefki Wed, 11 Nov 2009 05:57:35teedog, The folder name was erroneously set to Pitbull4_Anubarak in the zip file. Change it to PitBull4_Anubarak and it should work. This will be fixed in the next packaging. Sorry for the inconvenience.

teedog Tue, 03 Nov 2009 01:57:44PitBull4_Anubarak is not appearing under Modules of the config screen. I get no errors or anything. I installed r20091027211753. Any idea why?
