Scorchio! 2
Note: as of Jan 2021, Scorchio has been flagged as abandoned due to the original author not carrying over her account to the new Overwolf system. Overwolf refuses to undo this. It isn't possible to release new versions while it's flagged as abandoned - they never get packaged. The original author flagged the project as "All Rights Reserved", so I'm not sure whether Overwolf would allow me to create a new forked version, even if I wanted to. Ultimately, the best path for everyone is probably to move on from Scorchio and build what you need around something like WeakAuras or TellMeWhen. -ywfn666
Scorchio2 is an addon for Mages that tracks Living Bomb, Nether Tempest, Ignite, Slow, Flamestrike (Flame Patch and snare), and Polymorph on multiple mobs, and can give you warnings and notifications when the debuffs need reapplying, or have expired completely. Scorchio can also provide bars for personal buffs/procs/summons: Clearcasting, Heating Up, Hot Streak!, Brain Freeze, Fingers of Frost, Combustion, Icy Veins, Arcane Power, Rune of Power, and Mirror Image. Up to three anchors are available for use (targeted, non-targeted, and buffs), and the sort order for bars within each anchor is customizable.
Use /scorchio2, or Blizzard's Addons configuration window to configure Scorchio2.
Localization Help Needed!

Posted Apr 23, 2009So, yes, you will see Scorchio! 2 register scorches, then drop the debuff if a 'lock casts on it, which I think must be what you've been noticing. Scorchio! 2 is accurately representing the debuff status of the mob.

Posted Apr 24, 2009I was, just like Snarfle, suddenly having problems with Imp Scorch dissapearing. We had a frost-mage in the raid for utility and his WC was overwriting my Imp Scorch.
However.
It created problems with my Living Bomb dropping on and off at the same time as scorch was dissapearing. It stopped happening as soon as I stopped scorching (i.e LB's dissapearing).

Posted Apr 20, 2009That said, it's always been somewhere on the roadmap for Scorchio! that it would go multi-class. I think once the 1.0 branch is complete and stable (and I think - I hope - we're almost there), I want to make a few fundamental changes to the structure of the code to allow for spells to be added modularly. At this point, write modules for other classes is definitely something I want to do.

Posted Apr 19, 2009Great improvement on the original scorchio. I have one suggestion and one bug report.
Suggestion: would it possible to continue showing the bars out of combat? Or at least make that an option? It's a little weird to invis during a fight and have the bars disappear.
Bug:
I have Winter's Chill tracking disabled, but I was still seeing the bar pop up *when I switched targets*. The other options for WC were enabled (but grayed out). When I went in and forced them all off, it stopped showing up.

Posted Apr 20, 2009The bug you mention is already fixed in the current codebase, so should be in the next release.

Posted Apr 18, 2009I've been having several occasions where I get the timer for another mages living bomb on a mob we're both DPS'ing. As soon as I cast my own LB it overwrites and my timer is showing correctly.
We plowed 7 hours of Yogg tonight and it happens on numerous occasions. The fight itself is mostly killing various "trash" mobs, so it's constant switching back and forward betweeen different targets. It's very often I find myself picking a target and already seeing another mages LB on it.
When we're nuking singletarget, following a standard rotation I never have my own LB 'refreshed' when the other mage casts... it's only after a target switch.

Posted Apr 17, 2009I've been noticing that the Living Bomb bar would disappear sometimes during raid boss fights. It might come back during the duration of the debuff and sometimes not. This has been very frustrating.
Also, before this new version, all I saw was Scorch and Living Bomb bars but now I'm seeing a whole other bunch of bars (from other raiders?). My setting was set to show all bars and to track all the debuffs but now I've turned off tracking for the other ones so only Scorch and LB will show.
Another question is about dual specs. Let's say I'm frost spec with arcane as secondary. If I keep the arcane debuffs tracked in the settings (for when I switch to arcane), will all the arcane debuffs show from other raiders, even when I'm in frost spec? Or do I have to turn one set of debuff tracking off and another set on when I switch specs?
Thank you.

Posted Apr 18, 20092. A lot of new buffs and debuffs were added recently to Scorchio! 2, so you're probably seeing those. One of the main ideas behind the development of Scorchio! was that you could see the debuffs put on other mobs by other mages, to enable to collaborative upkeep of those debuffs... I will be adding a method of only viewing your own debuffs, or debuffs on your current target only in a later version. At the moment, you should only see your own buffs though.
3. The Ace3 config system isn't Dual Spec friendly at the moment. You can create two profiles in the Scorchio! 2 configuration but you'll still have to swap them over manually.

Posted Apr 17, 2009I would like them to be visible all the time the timer goes from 100% to 0%, but I was not able to find a option to turn off the hiding feature.

Posted Apr 17, 2009You're probably testing this at the target dummies, where it's easy to go out of combat and it looks like the bars disappear all the time. When you're in an instance, or a raid, even if you stop casting, your party don't stop attacking (and the boss doesn't let you off that easily anyhow!) so the bars will stick around until the end of the encounter...
