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.

I was able to fix this current version of skada until someone created a more up to date version. Recount is ok, it's not as light weight as skada though so I have it turned off at the moment and using this since I fixed it. I think it was only 2 lua files I had to make small changes to make it work. I am going to try the TWW version soon though.

Posted Jan 5, 2024Is there a way to get Skada to mimic details ability to show segments dynamically? Like when the dungeon is over it will show the "dungeon total" but in normal scenarios it will show the current fight encounter or fight?

Posted Nov 13, 2023Hy, i know this Project is kinda "abandoned" but i use it since forever and since the last Patch i got an "error".
Something messed up the Colorization of the Bars. Causing 2 Lua Errors.
Maybe some genius can fix this or update this addon so it goes back to working.
Thank you very much :)

Posted Apr 8, 2023Skada doesn't work when using the Training Dummies, could this be made to work perhaps? Other damage meter type addons work fine against the target dummies, I don't particularly want to move to something else.

Posted Nov 17, 2022Most demon hunters will spec into Fodder of the Flame where Throw Glaive instantly kills the demon that spawns which has alot of health and therefore does alot of damage thus skewing the results in the damage meter as Throw Glaive being the highest damage ability on the list.
Details! as far as I know doesn't count this
