ShammyShields

ShammyShields1

ShammyShields is a small addon that tracks the duration and charges of your Water, Lightning, and Earth Shields. It also shows the cooldown, if any, remains on your reincarnate.

MOP

Use the 3.0.x Beta versions for testing with the MoP Beta and eventual PTR.

Shield Overview

ShammyShields has two shield icons. The top one is your personal shield and changes between Water and Lightning based on what you have on. The time remaining on your shield shows up to the right, and charges are displayed on the icon itself. If you are specced into the Resto tree a second icon will show up underneath your shield. This will show the name of the person you have your Earth Shield on as well as time and charges. Icons fade when shield is not active.

Both Icons are now buttons that can be used to refresh your shields. The top one defaults to Lightning Shield when either Ele or Enh spec, and to Water Shield when Resto spec. It will change to which ever you last cast though.

The Earth Shield button will cast on either your target or yourself the first time, after that it will continue to reapply to that same target. To change the target you have to cast it on any other target, either by casting from action bars, mouse-over-macros, etc.

Reincarnate

The status of Reincarnate is displayed in the top right corner of the frame if you have learned the spell. It will show the time remaining on its cooldown or that it is ready. The number of Ankhs in your inventory is displayed in the top left. If you have Glyph of Renewed Life in your spec the Ankh counter hides and the Reincarnate timer moved to the top center of the frame.

Options

The Options page can be reached through the slash command "/ssoptions" or the in game addon page, Esc->Interface->Addons->ShammyShields. There are options allowing you to customize the look of ShammyShields, things you can modify are:

  • Colors of all the text
  • Text size of shield charges
  • Background Transparency
  • Scale
  • Out of Combat Transparency
  • Toggle to lock position

You can drag the frame anywhere on your screen by holding down the right mouse button. If you manage to drag the frame offscreen, "/ssreset" will recenter it on your screen.
