ClassTimer
Deprecation Notice: If possible, please use WeakAuras instead, this addon is no longer maintained
This is an addon to create timers for your own buffs and debuffs.
General
player bars on left, target in middle, focus on right, all can be moved
To track CC Effects you must set the CCed mob as your focus if its not your target.
Only icons and time can be shown if you don't want bars.
The text can be customized in the options by using, "%s for spell name", "%a for applications", "%u for unit name eg target or player", "%n for mob name"
This mod is set up with AceLocale so anyone who wants to add other locals feel free :)
If you want other textures for the bars, get the AddOn SharedMedia.
Note: When adding values in the files, double parentheses are necessary on the last item in a table because it contains all the values from the function call and we only want the first one.
Options
/classtimer or the LDB Launcher

Must give Nymbia credits as he is a legend!
Dunno what your talking about melec...... to take away the test bars all you do is relock them.
Hidak,
I know how to work the bars, they weren't behaving properly. Going back to an older version fixed all the issues I had.

I've noticed also that on my rogue, my skills such as perception or premed doesnt appear on the countdown. Do we have to add this manually or is it going to be added in the future?? What i'm asking is a more complete cool down list of our skills.... The (de)Buffs arent complete as well.
as i have already said if it works adding the buff/debuff to the custom list then post them here and i will add them
a couple of ideas, which you can take for what they are worth (you may or may not decide they are appropriate or even possible):
it does not appear that shield bash shows up as a debuff on a target, but is there any way to get a timer on it anyway? i could start a timer bar (on one timer or another) synchronously with firing shield bash (macro a timer and casting shield bash together and use that), but it would be nice if the WoW API reported whether it actually hit (or was blocked/dodged/resisted/whatever) and it could actually go up as a timer (on the target bars) only if "successful".
effects like sword specialization/blinkstrike/windfury procs... would there be any way for transient effects like those to be flagged? i can get windury notification from other mods, but as for extra swings from sword specialization or unique weapons like blinkstrike, its hard right now to tell how often those are proccing and what benefit i am getting out of them. i guess what i would like is for a bar to appear as soon as the proc is detected (i guess on the player bars), and then begin to fade out slowly as soon as the proc is accomplished. some way to flag the damage done out of the extra swing(s) or the total proc sequence would be cool as well.
For those looking for what I described in last post, go to ace and get ElkBuffBars. Is exactly what I was looking for.
Ok someone please help me I am going nuts. I have tried every 'debuff timer' addon I can find on the net and not a single one of them seems to be able to do what I am looking for. ClassTimers comes close but no cigar.
I want a timer bar addon that displays bars for debuffs that OTHER PLAYERS PUT ON ME.
Yes, its nice seeing bars for buffs I have put on my target or my focus. Its nice to see what debuffs I myself have put on my target. There are plenty of addons that can do that. But not a single one that will create bars for the debuffs that others put on me.
It can't be that hard to do. Default UI gives an icon with a counter under it for ANY and ALL debuffs any other class can put onto us. How hard can it be to simply ditch the default icons for debuffs placed on us by other players an replace with a timer bar?
When I get stunned, sap'd, feared, dotted, whatever the heck else. I don't want to squint at the default icon with the tiny arse font trying to figure out wtf effect is on me and how long it is going to last. I want a customizable bar that I can put anywhere on my screen!
ClassTimers is a great addon, but it can't seem to do this. On the timers menu I have 'added' every friggen debuff in the game but when I get hit by them it does not make a bar for them. The only debuffs ON ME that ClassTimers makes a bar for are debuffs that I put onto myself, like Forbearance and Weakened Soul.
Get stunned by someone else, no bar. Get sapped, no bar. Get feared, no bar. WHY NOT? Those are the ones that really matter. Who friggen cares about a bar that tells me there is 45 minutes left on the one hour buff I put on someone else. I want to know how much longer I am gonna be stunned, I want to know how long this friggen fear on me is going to last. And I want to know it without squinting at a 12x12 icon with size 5 font!
Please someone point me in the right direction. Thank you.
have been using this for a while and love it. but recently started playing my warlock again and there are no pet timers at all. my hunter has them, but none of my demon pets buffs/debuffs are there. intercept on target, demonic frenzy on pet. the only pet related timer i see is seduction. all the buff/debuffs my hunter's pets can do or have, the demon counterparts do not in classtimer.
just curious why warlocks don't have any pet timers, not demanding that there be one, just curious.
also, just remembered that my Mage has Frost armor buff showing, yet Demon Armor for lock... does not. Looks like a lot left out for warlocks.
can you post the pet buffs/debuffs that you want added but if possible post it on the wowace forum, there is a link to the threat on www.wowace.com/wiki/ClassTimer as i dont check here very often
Same as jamesbibby ; but it's only with my paladin (other classes work well).
11: Cannot find a library instance of SharedMedia - 1.0
Pretty good addon
Is it possible to disable announcement? Its quite often that I missclick and announce timers in raidchat, kinda annoying. Apart from that, really nice addon, love it.
james: im not sure ill look, hitekredneck13: i intend to add something similar to this
Idea: Add in an announce option : Say I'm a mage and in a raid grp. Sheep Breaking in 3 seconds - 2 seconds - 1 second (Break)
of coarse this option would have to be toggled for BG's but it'd work well with Hunter traps too and maybe a 'locks seduce
hm... i see only my stans and dont see other stans...
Really nice addon, one issue i found:
Class: Warrior
Skills: Sunder / Devastate
The Sunder Timer & Bar are correctly getting reset, but after you have sundered 5 times and you start Devestating, the Bar seems only to move an inch and not back to full, while the timer resets to 30 sec.
This is a VERY nice addon, thank you! I switched to this from the rogue timers (just to keep current), but this is versatile enough so that all my char's can use it... wow. I found one problem with the rogue part tho. I noticed there is an "Extras" spot where you can make your own timer, but I seriously, have no idea how to make it work. I found that you forgot to add Distract (was in the rogue timer), so i've been trying to make it, but just can't figure it out. Looked in the readable file in the ClassTimers folder, but that thing is so confusing and crazy to read through, i don't know if it tells you how to do it or not =p Do you need the AceLocale to be able to add an extras timer? I don't really know anything with creating addons, so please excuse my noobishness. And thanks in advance.
Sorry distract cant be added due to its not a debuff.
The Devistate problem is blizzards end.
it is only for your stuns
sorry cant do that cos of the way i have set this up
Ok, fair enough, I accept that :)
One idea, that may be a bit out of scope, but anyway... It sounds like you can detect if a cc effect on the focused target breaks early right? If that is the case, it would be a great feature if you for the individual "spells" to could "attach" an alert if it breaks early. Especially in raids it would be so nice, if you could be alerted when sap/sheep/shackle/trap for the focused target break before time, since you are not keeping an eye on the cc'ed target all the time.
