Damage meter suggest

For the most part the damage meters seem fine, however, could you add a way to minimize the damage meters so they are not open all the time.

Yes I know there is an option to only show in combat, hidden, or always show, but if I have it on always show or show in combat I am not looking at the meters 100% of the time and they are taking of space on my screen. I do this with details as well where I have it minimized so I can focus on the fight, and if I want to see what my dps/damage was I just have to click the icon next to the minimap. However, with blizzards new damage meter there is not way to minimize it. Its open or closed no in between. Right now if I dont want the damage meters taking of room on my screen while I am fighting I have to set it as hidden in edit mode for the ui, and then go back to edit mode to show it again to see what I did and then go back and put it in hidden mode so its not taking up room.

That is one too many steps when it could just have a minimize button

Second this. Also

%’s on all the damages.

Buff up-time

Death order/timer? (probably the absolute most useful for raid)

Overhealing done

Hard agree. The built-in damage meter is a far cry from what addons did. Why can’t I have an easily accessible button to switch its display on and off? Why can’t I see what targets people damaged? Why can’t I have both damage done and DPS on the meter at once? Why can’t I control when the data gets deleted? Why can’t I share the data?

We had Ferraris. You took them and crushed them into cubes while telling us you’ll give us the same thing anyway. You then gave us a 60 year old Lada and told us we have 30 minutes to move our cube.

The overall damage values when looking at damage done is fine, but it should also list what percentage each spell has done so you can easily parse that. Did Chaos bolt do 35% of my damage or do I have to eyeball it.

I would also like to have total damage done and dps combined because I don’t think there’s really a need for one and not the other. Just have one in ( ) and have them side by size like details.

Also being able to check % of damage done to targets like on a boss fight with adds. Was 80% of my damage done to boss or was 60% done to boss and 40% to adds.

Right now the segments are just listed as PH unnamed segment or something. Hopefully that will be broken down into boss names, dungeon trash, dungeon boss, etc.

I would also like to see Damage Meters expand to not just this BUT also include:

In detail: (point 1 expanded)
A List similar to the % spell/ability breakdown of current Add-On. Where a player can click on the line and see what % a spell/ability did/did not do out of the total for damage done for the current segment or past segments.

This is crucial because this is how players evaluate their rotations based off of site simulations information given from IE: Raidbots. Or compared to other players that are doing well in a group or raid compared to themselves.

Without this feature Damage Meters are almost useless

My suggestion is to have a grow left/grow right option for the popout when you click your bar to see the breakdown. Right now to have it where I want it, the popup goes underneath my bars, so I either have to put it in a spot I dont want or never see my breakdown :confused:

Or just let it be unbound to the screen so i can pick it up and move it to midscreen while I’m parsing out what I did after the fact then put it back in place afterward. Really hoping Blizzmove still works in Midnight and will allow for this.
