can you add a test function for the proximity meter use for Gruul's so it can be viewed and moved prior to the fight

I'm not seeing an easy way to increase the width of the bars and remove the icons? Also, is it possible to have an option to place the timer outside the bar (right or left)?

Thank you!

I'll research the Leotheras issue BlueGlyph

@funkydude

I wasn't trying to threaten in any way. I can try to fraps some of the encounter for you, don't know how much that would affect it though. As the below poster said, Tainted timer is off by about 5-10 seconds (Usually when our RL is calling out "10 seconds to tainted" it spawns). Strider timers for us have been off by about 10 seconds as well. Elite timers seem to be a bit better. Could this be someone in the raid using an outdated version and it broadcasting the incorrect timers? or is that not how the program works? I will be trying DBM for the first time on Vashj tonight, and if it works better, I can try to look into the code to see how the timers for Vashj are different than yours.

I also have some comments on the Lady Vashj fights. The strider timer are near to 100% accurate, I use this timer to know when to catch them for kiting. However, the Tainted Core one is off by a few seconds (3-4 maybe?). This is quite annoying, and the DBM one appears to be more accurate (according to my friends).

Another thing is that the Leotheras fight have been changed, and BigWigs haven't been updated in a long time. Maybe the creators are not doing SSC anymore? Anyway, Leotheras cooldown on WW doesn't tick in the Demon Phase anymore, it resets when the Human Phase starts. So the WW cooldown timer should show up in it's full duration when the Huma Phase starts, instead of the "WW soon" which is indicating that the cooldown is ready.

Just some small notes I found while farming SSC.

Great addon BTW.

Hi Jalba, I'm not sure what makes you think DBM is more accurate, after looking at DBM's code its clear that they are using the exact same time as us, so you must be seeing things :)

You have 2 options:

1. Go use DBM anyway, your threats couldn't make me care less. 2. You can give us some helpful advice like what the timer should be, preferably with some research and evidence of why it should be what you claim, then I will adjust the timer.

Dont know if this has been mentioned before or not, but the timers on the Vashj encounter are EXTREMELY unreliable. For example, last night, we were holding our last core until we could get the Naga that was still up down to a safe %, and we clicked the last generator with 10 SECONDS left before the Strider spawn, and bam...new strider pops. Is there anything you can do about this? because otherwise the Deadly Boss Mods are dead on on the Vashj encounter, and our guild will be moving over to them full time.

mscott998 BigWigs already has a distance frame, it appears when you engage Grull, if its not appearing you probably don't have BigWigs_Extras turned on in the addons menu

I use this with little wigs for 5 man instances and i use Deadly for Gruul's because of the distance meter it has, can this mod get the distance meter like Deadly so i can get rid if deadly? would be nice thanks

No you cannot use LittleWigs without BigWigs.

anyone know if theres away you can use LittleWigs with out have to use BigWigs, I am a Deadly Boss Mod user, but I would love to have a 5 man mod work for partys and I can only see that LittleWigs is as close as it gets for 5 mans. Thanks for your time.

Yeah read up after I posted here about the randomness of the BN and earthquake ability, was going to come back and remove this post but your quick on the repsonses :) Thanks for the heads up on the ~CD.

Faoite008: no 2 mods in the raid won't affect timers at all, its more a problem with the way blizzard have timed it, it used to be pretty exact but after 2.1 blizzard changed it to be more random, the timer is more of a 'safe zone' cooldown, he can cast blast nova any time after the bar expires. We highlight this by using a '~' and by specifying 'cooldown'

We noticed last night that the Mag countdown bar until he Blast Nova's was off. First BN it works great but seems to be loosing time gradually between each occurance. Is this issue known? Also we have some people in raid that uses DBM and a few of us with this. With the raid using 2 different boss mods does this corrupt timers maybe? Any other issues with 2 mods within the raid?

That was removed since blizzard doesn't allow it anymore.

Where is the Combat Log Range adjuster? I don't see it.

vash12788, firstly make sure you have the latest wowaceupdater, (1.9.x something) then try using the reinstall all addons function, it tends to fix a lot of things.

Love this boss mod and have been using it since it came out but i recently replaced all of my mods with ace2 equivalents and am using the wow ace updater to update all my mods at once. But for some reason whenever it downloads the latest version of bigwigs the folder has the mod itself but never the individual instance modules, they just aren't there. Is there anyway you can fix this?

1) make sure you have broadcast ticked and broadcast to chat _unticked_

2) open the file of the certain boss and change the times

sorry, wasn't very clear on my questions. i was actually asking 2.

1) is there a way to make the warnings that appear in raid chat show up on raid warning instead?

2) can i adjust the time for certain warnings?
