Skada Damage Meter
Skada Damage Meter
Skada is a modular damage meter for World of Warcraft with various viewing modes, segmented fights, and customizable windows. It is designed for efficiency with minimal memory and CPU impact.
"Skada" is Swedish for "Damage".
Midnight Edition (WoW 12.0+)
This version of Skada is updated for World of Warcraft: Midnight and uses Blizzard's new session-based combat systems.
Features

- LDB Integration: Compatible with Data Broker displays such as Titan Panel, ChocolateBar, and ElvUI.
- Extensible Architecture: The API allows developers to create additional plugins.

Getting Started
A default window is created upon first load. Access the configuration menu by clicking the cog icon on the window title bar or via the minimap button. Select Configure to access settings.

Posted Aug 20, 2016I've not used Skada for a couple of weeks. Is it still showing the "Void Tendrils" damage from the Touch of the Void heirloom trinket as a separate entity for other players? (It should be combining it as pet damage but this only happens for the user, and not other party members.)

Posted Aug 20, 2016If you are using a recent version, this should be fixed. However, it is a bit experimental still. Same goes for Greater Blessing of Might.

However, when linking to damaging abilities, when posting damaging abilities to a chat, it says that Templar's Verdict has a 100 Yard range.

Posted Aug 19, 2016Love to see smite for disc priests count as healing. As of right now, skada correctly counts it for atonement healing but smite also places an absorb debuf on the boss which prevents 100% of smite's damage from even going out.

Posted Aug 19, 2016Thanks. Yeah, I set the border thickness to zero (the small inner border seems to be made by Skinner, which is how I liked the border), and the "bar font size" seemed to increase from 12 to 13 for some reason after the update, which was weird, but seems to be fixed.

Is that tiny inner border made by another addon? If so, just disable Skada's own border in the window settings. Set border thickness to zero.
