GridStatusHealingReduced is a plugin for Grid to provide aggregate status indicators for debuffs which reduce or prevent healing taken.
After installing the plugin, you will find two new status indicators available in Grid: one for debuffs which reduce healing taken, and one for debuffs which reduce healing taken by 100%. Both indicators have all the options normally associated with Grid statuses, such as color, placement, priority, and range filtering.
The following healing reduction debuffs are tracked:
- Aimed Shot
- Arcing Smash (Gurtogg Bloodboil - Black Temple)
- Brood Affliction: Green (Chromaggus - Blackwing Lair)
- Curse of the Bleeding Hollow (Bleeding Hollow orcs - Hellfire Peninsula)
- Curse of the Deadwood (Deadwood furbolgs - Felwood)
- Dark Touched (Grand Warlock Alythess - Sunwell Plateau)
- Deathblow (Shattered Hand Savage - Shattered Halls)
- Demolish (Negatron - Netherstorm)
- Ebon Poison (Blackfang Tarantula - The Black Morass)
- Filet (Spectral Chef - Karazhan)
- Gehennas' Curse (Gehennas - Molten Core)
- Hex of Weakness
- Magma-Thrower's Curse (Sulfuron Magma-Thrower - The Arcatraz)
- Mortal Cleave (High Priestess Thekal - Zul'Gurub)
- Mortal Strike
- Mortal Wound (Temporus - The Black Morass)
- Necrotic Poison (Maexxna - Naxxramas)
- Nether Portal - Dominance (Netherspite - Karazhan)
- Shadow Spike (Kil'jaeden - Sunwell Plateau)
- Solar Strike (Bloodwarder Slayer - The Mechanar)

- Touch of the Forgotten (Auchenai Soulpriest - Auchenai Crypts)
- Veil of Shadow (Nefarian - Blackwing Lair)

The following healing prevention debuffs are tracked:

Localization
GridStatusHealingReduced is combatible with all locales, and does not depend on translations to function.
The options text is translated for English (enUS and enGB), German (deDE), Russian (ruRU), Korean (koKR), Simplified Chinese (zhCN), and Traditional Chinese (zhTW); if you would like to provide translations for another locale, please send me a PM.
Dependencies
As GridStatusHealingReduced is a plugin for Grid, it obviously will not function unless Grid is installed and enabled. You can find current release versions of Grid at http://wow.curse.com/downloads/wow-ad.../grid.aspx.

Installation Guide
- Exit "World of Warcraft" completely
- Download the mod you want to install
- Make a folder on your desktop called "My Mods"
- Save the .zip/.rar files to this folder.
- If, when you try to download the file, it automatically "opens" it... you need to RIGHT click on the link and "save as..." or "Save Target As".
- Extract the file - commonly known as 'unzipping'
Do this ONE FILE AT A TIME!
- Windows
- Windows XP has a built in ZIP extractor. Double click on the file to open it, inside should be the file or folders needed. Copy these outside to the "My Mods" folder.
- WinRAR: Right click the file, select "Extract Here"
- WinZip: You MUST make sure the option to "Use Folder Names" is CHECKED or it will just extract the files and not make the proper folders how the Authors designed
- Mac Users
- StuffitExpander: Double click the archive to extract it to a folder in the current directory.
- Verify your WoW Installation Path
That is where you are running WoW from and THAT is where you need to install your mods.
- Move to the Addon folder
- Open your World of Warcraft folder. (default is C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\)
- Go into the "Interface" folder.
- Go into the "AddOns" folder.
- In a new window, open the "My Mods" folder.
- The "My Mods" folder should have the "Addonname" folder in it.
- Move the "Addonname" folder into the "AddOns" folder
- Start World of Warcraft
- Make sure AddOns are installed
- Log in
- At the Character Select screen, look in lower left corner for the "addons" button.
- If button is there: make sure all the mods you installed are listed and make sure "load out of date addons" is checked.
- If the button is NOT there: means you did not install the addons properly. Look at the above screenshots. Try repeating the steps or getting someone who knows more about computers than you do to help.
Translations
When you download a mod, please be sure that the mod is compatible with your translation of wow. Some mods only work on the US versions, while some only work on some of the various European versions. These variations are called "Localizations".
TOC Numbers (Out of Date Mods)
When Blizzard patches WoW, they change the Interface number. This means that all mods will be "out of date" unless or until the author releases a new version for that interface. Some people go into the .toc files and update the numbers themselves, but this is STRONGLY advised against as it will cause problems locating possible incompatibilities addons. When you log into WoW after a patch, you DO NOT have to delete your interface directory. All you have to do is simply tell WoW to ignore the interface numbers and load all the mods anyway. All you have to do is, while at the "character select" screen, look in the lower left corner and click on the "addons" button. A window will pop up listing all your installed mods.
If you look in the upper left corner of that window there should be a box that says "Load Out of Date AddOns". You want to CHECK this box. Now simply go into WoW normally and all your mods should load. As of the 1.9 patch, you will have to do this after EVERY patch/update that Blizzard posts! If you encounter any problems with a mod after a patch, please be sure to let the author of the mod know so they can fix it.

Mac Support
WoW addons are not platformed based. As such, they can be used on either Mac or PC. You can extract both .zip and .rar files on a Mac using StuffitExpander.
