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
- Midnight Optimized: Uses Blizzard's internal session data for performance and accuracy.
- Combat Reliability: Handles modern combat data restrictions for a stable experience.
- Updated UI: Includes new presets with smooth animations, gradients, and textures.
- Dynamic Elements: Alternating row colors, highlight overlays, spark effects, and icon scaling.
- LDB Integration: Compatible with Data Broker displays such as Titan Panel, ChocolateBar, and ElvUI.
- Extensible Architecture: The API allows developers to create additional plugins.
Usage
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.
Multiple Windows
Skada supports multiple windows. Create new ones under the Windows section of the configuration panel. Windows can be:
- Bar: The standard customizable meter.
- Inline: A horizontal line for custom UI setups.
- Data Text: For LDB displays and minimal setups.
Navigation
- Left-Click: View more detailed information.
- Right-Click: Return to the previous view.
- Mousewheel: Scroll through lists.
- Tooltips: Hover over bars to see additional context and shortcut keys (e.g., Shift-click for targets).
Themes
Manage window designs with the built-in Theme Engine. You can import and export themes by using theme strings.
Versions
- Midnight (Default): For WoW 12.0+ using the Native API.
- Classic Version: The version for older WoW releases.

Posted Feb 26, 2017Hello Zarnivoop
Since all the Links are not working to give you a suggestion i post it here.
Could you maybe consider adding a Option to position the Skada Windows with X and Y Sliders ?
This would really help very picky Players (like me^^) to align the Window perfectly.
Thx for considering and keep up the good Work.

Posted Feb 19, 2017Just updated Skada in I dunno how long and now it's doing something really weird... It used to be that the 'Skada: Modes' list was always in a set order, and sometimes, I would have to scroll all the way down to the bottom of the list to look at some arbitrary metric that I needed at the time. Since I've updated, the 'Skada: Modes' list is no longer a static order, it keeps shifting.
As far as I can determine, it's been set up so that whichever module is clicked the most is moved to the top and the others get shifted down. While this is probably nice for some people, I really would like to find a way to set it back to a static list. Partly because when I click through the menus, my default is to hit the 2nd option twice for Current Fight and DPS, but now, I get a random metric, since DPS has moved to the top. Also, when I want to go find that arbitrary metric that I use maybe once a month, I have to look through the entire list to figure out where it is instead of relying on the memory of where it is.
TL;DR: How can I revert my 'Skada: Modes' to a static order that doesn't change based on use history.

Posted Feb 15, 2017Got a problem.. Is there anyway to merge the damage from Lava Burst and Lava Burst overload in the spell list? so it doesn't show Lava Burst and the overload lava burst separately? same with lightning bolt and elemental blast? i noticed that it merges the damage from Flame shock direct damage and the DoT damage into one spell, and know it was like that in the past, so is there an option to turn that on again? thanks

Posted Feb 14, 2017Hey!
I wonder it would be possible to show damage taken but only within a certain time frame (say last 10 seconds)?

Posted Feb 9, 2017Just repeating the bug that skada keeps showing up despite having ticked the option "hide when solo", often after you port somewhere.

Posted Feb 4, 2017I've been getting a lot of disparity between my skada meter and other's skada meters in my guild while we're raiding. We checked and we're all up to date, but mine seem to show lower numbers than theirs. Is there a setting in the configuration I might have changed to cause this? A bug? Then numbers in raids and dungeons seem to be wonky as well and it never used to have that different feel to it. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Posted Feb 5, 2017I've been seeing the same thing. My Skada meters are almost always different from my guild members in both Mythics and raids. There isn't anything consistent with it either. For some party/raid members, my numbers are lower than others skada meters, while at the same time others are higher. It's not consistently lower or higher across the board.

Posted Feb 1, 2017Is there an option in skada that shows at what point in a parse your highest DPS was? I tried installing the graphs plugin but that shows it live and I am unable to scroll back in time. Not sure if this is possible with skada but I thought id ask since it would be useful for measuring effective burst

I miss clicked and pressed "dismiss" when the tooltip of new features for 1.6.5 popped.
I would like to know what they changed, or maybe restore that tooltip in-game. How is it possible?
Thanks!

Posted Jan 27, 2017Are they really that annoying? It's just one right-click to dismiss. Anyway, the idea is to only notify on major things that are deemed noteworthy but probably get overlooked by the vast majority, since Skada as a rule doesn't change defaults or impose itself too much.
