GladiusEx

Table of Contents

GladiusEx is an arena unit frames addon based on Gladius.

What's new

New features include:

Party frames: support for showing frames for your own team

Cooldown tracker: a highly configurable module for tracking all types of cooldowns

Skill history: shows the icons of the last few skills used by the unit

Alerts: makes the frames blink in a noticeable way during some configured events (including low health, auras and specific spells being cast)

Pets: new module for displaying pet bars

Interrupts: See the interrupts directly on your arena & party frames.

And the classic modules, most of which have been improved in various ways:

Auras: now with more filtering options

Class Icon: new display modes: by spec, role and portraits

Cast Bar: now shows which spells can't be interrupted

DR Tracker: track the diminishing returns timers on both the enemy team and your team. Now lets you select which icon you want displayed for every category!

Health Bar: now displays incoming heals and absorbs

Tags: configure every text to show exactly what you want, now with more built-in tags and improved performance

FAQ

How do I bring the user interface up ?

You can use the /gex slash command, or you can access the options from the addons tab in the interface panel.

Where did the trinket and the dispels modules go ?

They have been replaced by the cooldowns module, which now allows you to have several groups of cooldowns configured independently. By default, the trinket cooldown is shown in group 2 and a few other cooldowns in group 1.

What is that additional set of frames that I see ?

Those are the party frames. This is incremental functionality that will help you track not only your enemies but also your friends. If you use your own you can turn these easily off in the general settings. You can also disable only your own frame, but keep the GladiusEx party frames.

Is it possible to have text timers for the auras, cooldowns or the DR icons ?

The timer module has been removed, but this can be achieved with OmniCC or other similar addons.

Is there a way to disable highlight on party auras with duration (and keep cooldown text in place)? It is hard to see, which exact aura it's covering. I've digged into code, but unable to find a way to remove this highlight.

And one more question, while I'm here :) Does party frames shows absorb heal (from maledict as an example)? Didn't noticed it and unable to find settings about that.

Sorry; I don't think I understand what you mean. What do you want to disable? A screenshot maybe would help.

Party frames don't show absorb heals afaik (the healthbar feature doing that appeared in WoD I think; while this hasn't been changed snce mop)

In the middle of the screen? Not on the frames? I've never seen or heard anything like that. Is there anything visible?

I've never heard about something like this from anyone else. Can you confirm that it never ever happens with GladiusEX disabled? By playing several games and making sure that doesn't happen.

Since logging on today

I cannot click the players on GladiusEx, I don't know why it's doing this, they're just not clickable, everything else is good.

I don't know if anyone else is getting this problem. Love this addon.

Edit: For some reason clicks were turned off since the update. Fixed.

Hi,

Before the update, those clicks were hardcoded, so you couldn't disable them.

Now you need to enable the clicks module.

You're using Curse Client/Twitch, right? I fixed that error a long time ago but it doesn't pick it up because LibCooldownTracker itself was updated.

Anyway there's a big update coming this week and hopefully that settles it.

Doesn't list cooldown times, which is ultimately the crux of the issue. Anyway the cooldown has been updated fully – I just want to prooftest it a bit before releasing it to the world.

If you're downloading straight from curseforge, you can download LibCooldownTracker on the side and remove it from GladiusEx/Libs. Somehow the newer version doesn't get packaged in...
