  • About TotemTimers
  •  

This addon displays timers for all totems and their cooldowns (referred to as timers), shaman shields, reincarnation cooldown and weapon buffs (referred to as trackers in TT). Each timer can be used to cast its associated spells, either by mouse or keybinds.

Small manual

This addon displays four timer buttons one for each totem element.
If you cast a totem its icon will be set to the appropriate timer button with the totem's remaining time underneath it.

These buttons also act as action buttons for casting your totems.
Each timer button consists of two icons: The big main icon indicates which totems are currently active, a small mini icon indicates what totem will be cast when you leftclick that button.
(Initially no spell will be assigned to the timer buttons. The mini icons won't show anything, until you assign a spell to a timer button.)
To change the totem assigned to that button mouseover it. A button bar will appear with all totems for the timer's element.
If you leftclick such a totem button it will cast the displayed totem. If you rightlick a totem button that totem will be assigned to the timer button. If you middleclick a totem button that totem will be cast and set to the timer button.
Additionally, if you enable "Timers1 -> Recast last totem", casting a totem out of combat will assign that totem to the appropiate timer button.

TT creates a macro called "TT" in your character specific macro slots containing a castsequence with the totems assigned to your timer buttons. (That macro can change out of combat only.)

By default the shield timer casts Lightning Shield on leftclick, Water Shield on rightlick,and Totemic Call on middleclick. Can be configured to cast Earth Shield as well.
The earth shield timer casts on focus on leftclick, target on righclick, targettarget on middleclick, and self on button 4 by default.
The weapon tracker casts spells on leftclick, rightclick oder left-/rightclick while holding a modifier key (shift, ctrl, alt). These spells should be configure in the options menu.

The options menu can be found in the interface options window of WoW or by the slash command /tt.

How to use totem sets

A totem set consists of four totem spells. On loading a totem set these spells will be set to the timer buttons.<br> The reincarnation timer (or ankh tracker) is used to control totem sets:

  • Rightclicking the ankh tracker saves a totem set.
  • Leftclicking the ankh tracker opens a menu with a button for each set. The first set is on top of the ankh tracker with the other sets following clockwise.
  • Leftclicking a set button loads that set, this can be done via keybindings as well.
  • Rightclicking a set button deletes that set. Saving and deleting a totem set can only be done out of combat, loading a set can be done in combat.

To be able to save a totem set, you have to have all four totems and you have to set spells to all four timer buttons. Initially there are no spells set to the timer buttons (if there are spells on the timer buttons, there are mini icons displaying them in the lower right corner of the buttons).

    I can't wait to see what you do Xian. This is one of those "can't live without" addons.

    Lets brainstorm here

    what are the most important features that you think will be enhanced by the new totem stomper?

    I do wish 1 thing: Being able to take a totem of the "cast next" bar. Anyone know how to do that? It would be nice if I could do that to make my macro (or totempole) have less totems.

    What else should TT have in 3.2?

    The macro is most likely obsolete in 3.2, the new summon spells are definitely easier to use. At the moment it doesn't seem possible to exclude a totem element from a summon spell, it always summons four. If the option to remove a totem from a summon spell is implemented in the default UI, I will add that to TT also.

    Otherwise I'm not really open to suggestions of new features atm, I have a bunch of things I want to implement and not too much time for coding.
    Right now I'm working mostly on internal changes. (For example changing the code for the totem menus so I can have similar menus for the new summon spells, shield spells, weapon buffs, changing the way available spells are detected, change the code for default settings, changing localizations, clean up a bit of the whole _G-clutter...).

  • Is there any way to have the Earth Shield timer show the target's name that it is applied to?

    This is something that I have found useful with FullMoon. It displays the first 4 characters of the person you put ES on. I know ShamanFriend has a dedicated ES Tracker frame, but that is a pretty large screen real estate hog (250px long, 40-50 px high)

    I don't know yet how TT will change or work with the new totem features. I'll have to see them on the ptr first.

    One of my all time favourite add ons, I literally would not be able to play my shaman without it.

    Just wondering how it will change with the oncoming of the blizz totembar? Will it be able to get rid of it, and add in "Call of fire"?

    Yes. All elements of the UI interface produced by blizzard are really just an addon that blizzard made. Everything that you see and notice there can be edited, removed, etc. by other addons. This totemrack idea that they are prolly copying from TT will be removable.

    I am really excited to see its capabilities though and how that can tie into TT, plus blizz is really good at making stuff that is easy for the masses to understand. Perhaps by looking at it, we will be able to see areas where TT is not as easy to use as this Totembar and replicate\improve without sacrificing customization.

    PS: Xian, I think in your options you should have something in the general where you choose basic config and advanced. Not everyone really cares about all of the control that you have enabled in TT. Though, this is mostly fixed by making it good out of the box, but sometimes people get scared off by a big scary options list. Just a thought!

  • You haven't saw a HealBot... I can't say i'm ill-minded or lazy, but i've been able to reconfigure TT to my liking in a few seconds, once i've realized what I REALLY want from totem bar. HealBot config for me is still a damned mess.

    Regarding Blizz totem bar, i can say from it's description that TT likely work better right now and will still be able to overcome it, like the rain covers the single waterdrop on the road.

  • Since blizzard is going to add something similar in 3.2, can you please make some suggestions in the US forums (assuming you are from US) to get proper LUA APIs for the new system? Especially so you can still have an addon for totem set configuration like you have now (i.e. both the TT right/middleclick stuff and the raid-wide RTT config).

    1. EU, not US.
    2. I hope we get proper UIs, cause this is going to be sweet to be swapping the sets really often in combat.
    3. I hope xian sees the possibilities that have been opened by this new feature. I will psot more on it when I get to PTR testing SoonTM

    I just logged in by accident with TotemTimers disabled (because of the bug when you disable some addons for 1 character it gets disabled for all characters).
    After i relogged with TT enabled again, many of the settings were gone. Mostly settings in Tracker 1.

    Would it be possible to get profiles that save all the options?

    I see you added broker support in this latest one. Nice man. ps, you still can't press escape to clear the RTT window. Haven't tested all the other features yet, so I can't comment on those.

  • it would be totally great if the addon would hide while entering a vehicle - like the rest of the UI does. since you cant cast totems, its only in the way of a cool vehicle feeling ;-)

    maybe turnable on/off through options

    Are you sure? I'm pretty sure that you can cast totems while riding in passenger seat of Demolishers nowadays (Think SotA). Am I wrong? I haven't done one for a few weeks...

  • u can cast them in some vehicles because ive done it in pvp i could swear

  • szeraax said 

    Confirmed. I am able to drop totems while in the Siege Demolishers in SotA. I haven't tested with other vehicles and I'm sure its a case by case thing. Prolly best to just leave it out always and use third party addons that let you hide frames and elements based on what is happening, me thinks.

  • Simply hide it in Ulduar etc and whitelist vehicles/locations where you might be able to or can place totems.
