About Shaman Friend
News: Druid Friend is now available!

Shaman Friend
This addon is designed specially for the Shaman class. It contains a lot of useful functions no matter which spec you are.
It should work with most languages, although translations depend on users providing them (see below).
Here are a few of the functions:
- Remind/alert for Elemental Shields and Weapon Enchants when fading or missing in combat (with sound support)
- Show total Windfury damage with options to include advanced info: Crits, misses and which hand the procs come from If it procced of Stormstrike, the data from both hits are summed together and adds to the damage
- Show a message when Lightning Overload procs, optionally together with total damage and number of crits
- Separate frame allowing for easy Earth Shield tracking and recast
- Show buffs removed by Purge and/or broadcast it to the chat window
- Show spell interrupted by Wind Shear and/or broadcast it to the chat window
- Tracks shaman CC and can alert when someone breaks it
- Show when your Grounding Totem aborbs a spell and/or broadcast it to the chat window
- Can print messages in MSBT, SCT, Parrot and a few other places
- Announce to your group whenever you cast Bloodlust/Heroism, Mana Tide, or Feral Spirits
- Uses spellID when available, this reduces the amount of localization
Of course you can choose for yourself which functions you want. It is built on Ace3 for increased efficiency and performance, with low memory footprint.
"/sf" or "/shamanfriend" to show the GUI.
If you would like to help with Translations please visit:

If you make changes to the translations, please send me a message as I do not get notified when translations are changed. I do try to check the Activity Log regularly to see if someone has made any changes though.

Earth Shield frame can now be clicked through unless it is unlocked or tooltips are enabled. Updated ptBR translation, thanks Allexplain. BUGFIX: Fixed bug with checking for existing CC on the target and a bug with checking if the CC expired early on its own in PvP.

Comments
I added a news entry for it, but I thought I'd add a comment too. I decided to write a Druid version of this addon as I've been playing my druid a lot lately:
http://www.curse.com/addons/wow/druidfriend
Greetings, i been using shaman's friend for a lot of time now and i just love the way it helps, and shows up my damage, but now im using a ret pally and i been looking everywhere for something similar to what you did with stormstrike + windfury total damage to show up, but to work with paladins strikes + hand of light, is there a way to do it?
thanks in advance :D
I could look into adding this to PallyPowerWarn, which is kind of my Paladin version of this addon, but there is a lot of other functionality on my todo list for that addon that I would prioritize higher I'm sorry to say.
I don't know of any addon that combines Hand of Light damage the way Shaman Friend does with Windfury/Lightning Overload. I don't play ret much, but isn't Hand of Light damage added to most ret specials? Would you really want the special+HoL damage displayed for everything? I guess if you disabled the normal damage numbers, and then just displayed those with a scrolling addon it might be better than the default version split, is that what you had in mind?
The closest thing i managed to do was showing just crusader strike, templars verdict and hand of light damage on MSBT, and disabling ALL the other damage sources to show, but then again, it doesnt merges the damage. :(
i dont know why but i get lua error from time to time ;-(
i miss the old days that the addon works fine

I have not gotten this error on my shaman. Yours is the first I've heard of this issue. I'm looking into it.
I checked in a fix that I believe addresses that lua error in r36 (marked alpha atm). I was not able to reproduce the issue though even after looking at the conditions that might trigger it and attempting to do so. Alpha versions can be obtained from:
http://wow.curseforge.com/addons/shaman-friend/files/
Great Addon. I <3 it and recommend it often. I use it for both Enh and Resto.
I was wondering though, is it possible to include a warning for when searing totem expires for the Enh players?
Hm... How about timer/tracker/or just window for our new buff?
If you mean Ancestral Vigor health increase to people healed, that would be much better monitored by a healing addon as the duration is different on each person. How would this addon display the timer on each person in the raid and why would you want that informaiton displayed here rather than on your healing addon (Grid/VuhDo/Healbot)?
Heh) because I dont have Grid/Healbot or VuhDo. I threat only with own hands... =) But mb you right and I should look for special addon for such tracker.
Hello there m8y. I was just wondering if it was possible to put in a little box for the water shield as you have done with the earth shield. Not always easy to see if its still on or not.
-Cheers!
It would be kind of cool to be able to display a water shield icon when it is under X charges (could be displayed with 1 charge or expired), or lightning shield icon is displayed if it is above X charges for fulmination.
I get lua errors like "1x table: 11D2CD28
nil
Locals:
nil"
although it is not a very helpful lua error and /sbf options does not load. I am looking into the issue.
