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.

- Classic Version: The version for older WoW releases.

Posted Sep 4, 2017Hi there.
Love this addon and have used it for YEARS! Suddenly this morning, ALL of my skada modules are listed as DISABLED in red text, on all of my characters. Has something happened in a recent build or is it a conflict with other addons?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks!

Posted Sep 8, 2017Probably you accidentally triggered a shortcut to disable them. You can check your settings and enable them again

Posted Aug 25, 2017So i'm currently experiencing some weird problem with LUI+Skada in which whenever i Join a raid group my Skada instantly hides itself though LUI still has the module as being turned on. I have to click to turn off DPS, and then turn it back on to make the skada window appear. I've looked through the settings and cant find anything that should be causing it. Anyone having similar problems or know how to solve it?

Posted Aug 12, 2017In some videos the names in the raid interface do not match the names in Skada.
What is this mod?

Posted Jul 24, 2017I dont get the damage from Kil'Jaedens Buning Wish to show up in Skada. It does show in Recount however (running both addons at the same time for testing). Tho it doesn't always no-show, but most of the times...
Anyone else got this issue?

Posted Jul 16, 2017How does the blizzard services whisper work? Whenever I try to whisper someone on my list a skada chart, it just says "Skada: Error: Whisper target not found". I've tried their bnet tag, their tag without the # behind it, their real name, etc, but it still refuses to locate the target

Posted Jul 21, 2017This is most likely because the author STILL hasn't added the ability to recognize what realm a person is playing from, it is still a MAJOR problem compared to anything else. I am thinking your whisper target is because they are from a different realm, and frankly Skada is TOO STUPID TO KNOW THAT.
I often would like to look someone up to see their build when I play with them and they are doing great. The only way you can do this is WHILE YOU ARE STILL IN THE GROUP, start typing "/w name" and the name of that person will come up with the realm after their name. IF YOU LEFT THE GROUP ALREADY YOU CAN'T DO IT. So again, Skada is very stupid this way.
Recount doesn't do this. You roll your mouse on a name and it shows the proper Name-Realm like it's supposed to.

Posted Jul 15, 2017The interrupt module hasn't worked for me for years - anyone know why? I've started using Details because its interrupt counter works for me.

Posted Jul 15, 2017This is because you have the external Friendly Fire addon installed.

Posted Jul 13, 2017Just did a tos raid finder with 2 dmg metters on. On skada one of the other 3 bm hunters had 69 main pet kill commands and his hati had 129 kill commands:)). Ofc his hati should have had the same amount as the main pet. Looked at my main pet and hati, i was missing 23 hati kill commands and same with 2 other hunters (different amounts) . So that hunter was given randomly some of the other hunters' hati dmg that was previously showing separately. It no longer shows separately on the metter hati , it just goes to some random lucky player in the raid that has his dps boosted nicely. I only checked kill comand but probably there were other amounts of several hati damages that went to him too. No offense intended but this has become beyond ridiculous.
L.E. Actually it used to show separately mostly beast cleave, now it's worse than before the update.
