Is there a way to get only healing done to both your group and self on one side, and only your damage done on the other?
Currently self healing is on the left and your damage and group healing is smushed together on the right.
Just wondering if anyone has had a chance to tinker with this and maybe had more success than I had.
You can make Mik’s do pretty much anything, but it’s a huge pain to set up, and frankly, it’s just clutter on your screen. You’re way better off just ditching it entirely IMO.
Been using Miks for a while and at this point I’m starting to agree with ya, but it also causes my brain to make the happy chemical when I see the big shaking number for a big crit.
I have had damage turned off for … I can’t even rem when I last saw it. Cata??
I can’t think of any situation where it was actually USEFUL. Aside from epeen. Oooohhh 30k hit! 75k hit! Is the boss dead yet? No? Keep going …
My rotation matters. My overall dps matter. But each individual hit? An incessant stream of numbers that just covers up the visual diarrhea that passes for “challenge” anymore?? Like on Sarkareth … there’s this purple swirly, and the purple thing, stand behind this purple wave, OUT of this purple but IN this purple … is this fight some massive FU to people specifically color-blind to the color purple??
Rant mode over… I hope the OP gets what he wants. I just… I don’t understand the need to see combat numbers at all.
It’s very customizable but is it really worth all of that just to have obstructions in your field of view? Even if you ditch the notifications and static popups, you’re still dealing with the always obstructive scroll.
Honestly if I could get it so that it only shows my crits and my cooldown notifications, I’d honestly be pretty happy, other than that yeah its just a lot of visual clutter thats unneeded
Some of the best DPS I know have some of the worst UIs I have ever seen, largely because of happy brain chemicals lol.
I think I still have regular damage numbers on (not the incoming stuff or from any addon–just Blizz default), but during Mythic Painsmith prog I had to finally kill all healing numbers. With the entire raid pixel stacked, it was just impossible to see anything through all of it (I main a resto druid).
I used to have an addon called Eavesdrop that would allow you to scroll, after the fact, through damage events to see what happened. I found that super useful. But it hasn’t been updated in many years as of the last time I checked.
Now that Blizz provides a death recap, it’s not nearly as important tho tbh.
Also, MSBT Porky is such a terrible font… it’s the comic sans of the wow world
You can do that with classic numbers and Doom Cooldown Pulse.
I used to always like MSBT just for the sound notifications of low hp/mana and to show leaving combat notification without having to use blizzard’s default setup which will spam the incoming damage and healing. Weakauras can do that just fine.
I used to several expansions ago, but I can’t focus with so many flashy spell effects going on as it is to add floating numbers into the mix.
I mean, I like seeing numbers, especially for trinkets and primordial gems and stuff. I like how Miks combines damage numbers that occur at once into one big number. If you hit ten enemies for 10k each, instead of getting a bunch of 10ks all across your screen, you just get one single clean “100,000 (10 hits)” on your screen which is nice.
Idk how you guys turn damage numbers off. When I get an upgrade or a new ability or new build, I like to see visual confirmation on my sceeen.
yeah you can put Miks text wherever you want. I am not at home atm so I can’t look up the exact wording, but somewhere in the settings of MSBT there’s a “configuration mode” or something similar, that puts up sample dmg/healing numbers and let you drag them around to wherever you want on the screen.
Here. Try this. I’ll provide steps based on creating your own two panels so that we don’t accidentally screw up anything else you want to see.
/MSBT
Scroll Areas menu option
Add Scroll Area Button
Call it “Heal Panel”
Add Scroll Area Button
Call it “Damage Panel”
Heal window first:
Events Menu option
Event Category = Outgoing player
Go to bottom of the list. Find Heals, Crit Heals, Heals over Time, Crit heals over time.
For each one, hit the wrench/screw driver icon on the right.
Output scroll area → Heal Panel
Event Category = Incoming player
Self Heals, Self Crit Heals, Self heals over time, Self Crit Heals over time.
For each one, hit the wrench/screw driver icon on the right.
Output scroll area → Heal panel.
… Try that and see what it looks like (IE take some fall damage, heal yourself, heal someone near you). This doesn’t provide any font/size/animation customization… It’s just splitting out the numbers you want to see into a section.
Damage… I need to look at what’s available here. This one gets a bit tricky.
Actually… Maybe it’s not that tricky. Just tedious perhaps.
/MSBT
Events Menu option
Event Category = Outgoing player
Find Melee Hits, Crits
For each one, hit the wrench/screw driver icon on the right.
Output scroll area → Damage Panel.
Find Skill hits, skill crits, skill dots, skill dot crits, damage shield hits, damage shield crits
For each one, hit the wrench/screw driver icon on the right.
Output scroll area → Damage Panel.
(Decide how many more you want. Immunes, reflect, absorb, resist, deflect, block, parry, miss, etc are options too. Decide which ones you want set the scroll area to damage panel)
Try it out on a target dummy. If it worked, you should see a bunch of damage values going top to bottom in your new window, and not on the MSBT standard ones.
Absolute legend.
Not all heroes wear capes.
I mean… for moonkin, it tends to be a fair number of feathers and some antlers, but I appreciate the sentiment.
That setup worked then?
