Hardest Hits

Hardest Hits

Ever wish you could remember the details around that epic crit you delivered in Alterac Valley last week - was that the highest damage I’ve ever delivered, the hardest hit? Who did I hit, was it melee or a spell? How about the highest damage you’ve ever received? You remember C’Thun hit you for some amazing damage last night in the raid, but cannot remember if it the highest damage you’ve ever received.

Hardest Hits is a light-weight addon (less than 25K memory) that solves these problems by helping you keep track and remember the details surrounding your hardest hit or damage dealt and the hardest hit or highest damage you’ve ever received. Hardest Hits keeps track of your historic maximum damage dealt and maximum damage taken in a small, movable window. You are alerted with combat text and a default chat window message when attaining a new maximum. The damage values are maintained across sessions/logins and are able to be reset, recalled and reported anytime with slash, “/” commands or by right-mouse-button clicking the small window.

• Tracks, throughout the lifetime of a character, the hardest hit or maximum damage dealt and the hardest hit, maximum damage received
  
• Tracks the situational details surrounding the new maximum: date, what player or mob received, dealt the damage, what is their level, what type of damage (spell, melee, thrown), whether the hit was critical, and of course how much
  
• Alerts you when a new maximum is attained in floating combat text (displays for 5 seconds - green for maximum damage dealt and red for maximum damage taken) and the default chat window
  
• Captures a screenshot of your Hardest Hit (configurable). The default is enabled. (thank you Tanthalus for the suggestion)
  
• Able to turn on/off the report going automatically to the default chat window for a Hardest Hit (thank you rybo3282 for the suggestion)
  
• Able reset window position to the center of the screen (thank you Silentmouse for the suggestion)
  
• Able to display current configuration, type /hh config
  
• Report with situational details around maximum hits is available by right mouse button clicking the Hardest Hits window or using slash “/” commands
  
• Reset the values to zero together or separately
  
• Roll-back to the previous damage values together or separately

Known Issues
Unrealistic, extremely high damage not caused by your abilities skews your record high damage: Quests or events that enable you to do extreme damage with a special prop, like a bomb or charge, can skew your personal best damage output (see quests below). I've begun to exclude damage from those. The following bombing run quests are no longer tracked in Hardest Hits. If you come across quests or events that mess up your numbers, please email me and I'll exclude it and release a new version.

"Arcane Charges", part of The Air Strikes Must Continue (daily quest)
"Dropping Heavy Bomb" from Return to the Abyssal Shelf
"Dropping The Nether Modulator" from The Murketh and Shaadraz Gateways
"Throw Bomb" from Bomb Them Again! (daily quest) and Bombing Run
"Dropping Phase Disruptor" from On Nethery Wings
"Destroy Legion Hold Infernals" from Blast the Infernals!
"Throw Boom's Doom" from Dr. Boom!
