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 Jun 14, 2017As of today, some modules (Damage, DPS, Healing, etc..) are not gathering any data and are showing DISABLED in red. Any idea how to fix this?
*Got it, only seems to be disabled in some zones. Kinda a Blizzard thing I guess ..

Posted Apr 20, 2017Not sure if I'm the only one with this problem but is there anyone else who can't seem to find the threat section? I know it used to be there as I used it not too long ago. Now I can't find it anywhere. Was it removed or is mine just bugged out?

Posted Apr 3, 2017Ch3vr0n complained about it too on this page. Skada window pops up when hidden taking an FP from dalaran, or when taking the portal from dalaran to SW. Despite the options saying it should be hidden.

Posted Mar 31, 2017You can manually start a new segment on phases by way of keybinds, or the menu.

Posted Mar 29, 2017After the patch and even after the update I'm finding that skada keeps stretching out horizontally on my ui. even if I have it locked or unlocked, I fix it, and after some time it goes back all stretched out. Is there a way to fix it? Since everytime I relog, reload, reload ui, it stretches skada out. I dont want to switch damage meters, but it's a little troublesome when it stretches out mid fight and I cant see my spells :(

Posted Mar 29, 2017Try enabling 'Load out of date addons' on your addon screen to get Skada to load.
Skada is working fine for me.
