Ultimate Buff Tracker  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)
Version: 1.0
by: Agade [More]
Overview
Since 1.6.5 ultimate is generated by having a buff that regens ultimate for 8s after doing a light attack, heavy attack, block... This addon displays text on the screen when you are in combat and the buff is not on.

How it works
The addon tracks whether you have the buff or not only based on you doing light attacks, heavy attacks, blocking damage and dodging damage. The addon then knows that the buff will expire in 8s. This is imperfect as there is at least one other effect which triggers the buff: healing another player who has the buff. The reason it is being tracked this way is that this "buff" doesn't show up in the buffs list making direct tracking impossible.
You can turn on "Extensive Experimental Tracking" in the addon menu to further track the presence of the buff based of it ticking, if there the buff doesn't tick for 1.2s the addon tells you you don't have the buff anymore. The drawback of this is that you learn you don't have the buff 1.2s after you have already lost it, thereby losing some ultimate.

Manual
This text can be made movable in the addon menu and dragged on the screen to your preferred location.
You can also type /ut in chat to lock/unlock the text.
The addon will constantly show "No Ulti Buff" while the text frame is unlocked. Lock the text for normal addon behavior.

Installation
Method 1: Use Minion
Method 2: Extract the Ulti_Tracker folder from the .rar into your addons folder

Feedback
Use the comment section for bugs and requests.

Thanks
In order of human value
-All the netches and mudcrabs I killed while testing this addon
-Lontus for convincing me to make this addon by promising me my weight in columbine (and then not giving me anything)

Présentation Brève
Depuis la version 1.6.5 les points de capacité ultime sont générés en acquiérant un buff de 8s après avoir fait une attaque légère, une attaque lourde, un bloquage, une esquive... Cet addon vous prévient lorsque vous êtes en combat et n'avez pas le buff avec un texte sur l'écran.

Que fait l'addon?
L'addon sait si vous avez le buff ou pas en regardant vos attaques légères, vos attaques lourdes, vos bloquages et vos esquives. L'addon sait ensuite que le buff expire dans 8s. Cette méthode est imparfaite car il y a au moins un autre effet qui vous donnent le buff: soigner quelqu'un ayant le buff.

L'addon fonctionne ainsi car il est impossible de voir directement le buff dans la liste des buff, le seul moyen est de le voir indirectement en regardant les attaques légères etc...

Vous pouvez activer le "Extensive Experimental Tracking" dans le menu de l'addon en jeux, ceci n'altère pas le fonctionnement de base de l'addon mais lui ajoute une nouveau comportement: Si le buff générateur de points d'ulti tick alors que vous n'aviez fait ni attaque légère, ni attaque lourde, ni bloquage, ni esquive l'addon déduit que vous avez le buff. Si pendant 1,2s le buff ne tick pas l'addon déduit que vous n'avez plus le buff. L'inconvéniant de la méthode est que vous êtes prévenus de l'absence du buff 1,2s après que vous l'ayiez déjà perdu.


Manuel
Le texte peut être rendu movible dans le menu de l'addon en jeux et bougé à la souris. Vous pouvez aussi tapper /ut dans le chat. N'oubliez pas ensuite de reverrouiller la position du texte pour que l'addon fonctionne correctement.

You are right, and apparently I'm also missing "Ultimate can also be gained from blocking, dodging..." I Should probably make it clear on the page that this only tracks light/heavy attacks. The thing is I've tested it out and this buff doesn't show up in the buffs list, so you can only keep track of it indirectly.

Since group wide damage meters are gone I'm gonna assume you can't keep track of everyone else's light/heavy attacks to know if they have the buff when you heal them.

I have some schemes in mind to try out, thanks for telling me about this.

Is there a way to make this addon pick up the buff for healers? Healers get the buff anytime to heal someone with the buff.
