BLT Raid Cooldowns
Inspired from BloodLegion Raid Cooldowns. ElvUI greatly improve the core design.
BLT Raid Cooldowns tracks raid cooldowns (offensive and defensive), announces casts and availability, and provides a report on CD usage after boss fights.
Usage
Configure the options in the blizzard option panel (type /bltrcd config to open directly the panel)
There are 5 default categories :
- AOE_HEAL : CD to protect the raid (tranquility, revival, ...)
- SINGLE_HEAL : CD to protect one member (eg the tank)
- DEFENSIVE : tracks self defensive CD (personal cd)
- UTILITY : tracks some utilities (Gorefiend's Grasp, Aspect of the fox, ...)
- AOE_STUN : Shockwave, Binding Shot, Leg Sweep, ...
Move categories panel using /bltrcd sim
You can add/edit/remove category and cooldown in the configuration panel using /bltrcd config
Icon tooltip show who can cast the spell, and how much it was used after each bossfight.
Left click on a CD icon to report who can cast the CD
Right click on a CD icon after a bossfight to report usage
Commands
- /bltrcd config - Open configuration panel.
- /bltrcd show - Show/Hide the frame.
- /bltrcd sim - Lock/Unlock and Enable/Disable Simulation for each category of cooldown.
- /bltrcd report - Show the report frame.

To 1: Check this screenshot:![](http://s1.postimg.org/b3a2ck15a/World_of_Warcraft_2015_02_16_16_17_43.jpg)
I disabled all categories but DEFENSIVE, but on the right you can see that BLTRCD displays all cds (AOE_HEAL, DEFENSIVE, aso). Why? :-(
To 2: Yes I am able to create class specific categories, but how can I handle the specc specific abilities? I only want to show the defensive-abilities by the tanks. For example shield wall: I only want to see shield wall cd from tanks, not from dps-warrior. How can I manage this?
Just use the Alpha version of the addon. Its les buggy and tracks the CD correctly. Great addon 5/5
I installed the addon today, tested it in heroic highmaul and had a problem with the cooldown tracking hand of sacrifice/hand of purity. the hpally had the clemency talent selected, but the cooldown monitor displayed 1 hand of sacrifice and 1 hand of purity. even after relogging and inspecting the pally it didn't work correctly.
even on my pally alt it doesn't work correctly, i neither had none of the both talents selected, the cooldown monitor shows 1 hand of sacrifice, 1 hand of purity. when I spec into clemency nothing changes.
edit: when I mouseover the hand of sacrifice icon when specced into clemency, I see my name and "ready (2), correct so far. but is it intended that on the icon itself it shows 1 instead of 2? and since it is the same for hand of purity that I don't have, this definitely needs a fix.
The second thing was, sometimes strange bars show up, e.g. at the position where in sim mode you can see the active cooldowns -> i have unchecked this option, but sometimes on that position I get those bars (without a timer, only a black bar) and don't know if this is a bug.
apart from that: nice addon, working much better than other addons I tried so far. so thanks in advance :)

If you see 1 in the icon, its "normal" : it is the way I wanted it.
Even if you have 2 charges, it is showing "1 guy in the raid can cast it."
Normally, if you can cast it once, then the 1 should stay.
And you get 0 only when you're out of charges.
Regarding the "strange" bars, it is definitely something I want to fix. But unfortunately, I am not able to reproduce it. If you have a way to reproduce it 100%, pls share it. I'd appreciate you share the BLTRaidCooldowns.lua you can find in your WTF profile so I can use your exact profile
thanks for your information regarding the numbers on the icons. I now disabled the icon for hand of purity, it's all fine now :)
I noticed that one of the bars i mentioned appears after bosstries at the exact place where the cooldown of the brezz monitor is displayed. the problem is that it sometimes overlays the timer bar in later tries so that I can't exactly see the cooldown. hope you can find something.
for my .lua, here you go

hope that works :)
@version 4.2-1-g63de4a9
I believe it is actually broken cause the spell id of clemency is 105622 instead of 17593
http://www.wowhead.com/spell=105622/clemency
it only adjust Hand of Freedom, Hand of Protection, Hand of Sacrifice, Hand of Salvation
Hand of Purity is a talent at the same level so there won't be two chagres
It should work. We track the talent ID of Clemency and not the spellID :)
Good catch for Hand of Purity, gonna fix it, thanks <3
sorry for the misunderstanding, nice work :)
deselect 'ready mode' not work talent+spec detection
but ready mode is no problem
help me!!
Will check , thx for the report.
Is there a way to add the Brez charges and their cooldown? Would be appreciated!
Being a raid leader this addons is golden and I think that feature could just make it even better!
Brez charges and timers are already implemented.
Try "/bltrcd sim" and look after the Rebirth icon to position the frame where you want
Firstly, great work on the addon. Looks perfect for a RL!
Is it possible to have abilities not shown when they are not talented into. For instace on my priest its showing spirit shell & divine star as ready when I do not have those talents choosen?
Cheers
Thx for the report,
I will check next time i am raiding, strange I didnt see it before.
4.2 release should fix Spirit Shell & Divine Star
There was an error in the detection code, thx for the report !
Any chance you could add an option to grow the bars sideways instead of under each other?
Hi
What do you mean ?
Cooldown icon on the mostleft, then a first bar on the right of the icon, then a second bar to the right of the first one?
I dont understand the idea, maybe could you draw it somehow ?
Hi Myrdinn,
I think that he want what I want too, so I try to explain it :)
BLT RC actually grow single CD's in group vertically, but we would like to have option sort it horizontally. For example I have not any vertical space in my UI, but I have quite a lot space on the top of screen, so I would like to have BLT RC there. But it is not possible at the moment, because everything is sorted vertically like long pillar. So problem is not sorting in each CD individually (icon, name of player, ...), but whole group sorting (CD1, CD2, CD3, CD4, ...).
Do you get what we think? :) Addon is quite space expensive, so it would deserve more options which allow users like me little bit more opportunities to fit my UI.
Thanks,
Morath
Im still not sure to understand :)If I put this option, where are the bars ?
Hi Myrdinn, sorry for late answer. I prepared in paint few examples (in the link below), I hope you understand us now :)
