Sweetsour's Shaman Auras
Sweetsour's Shaman Auras
Introduction
Like myself, I know there's a lot of people that enjoy the functionality that Weak Auras has to offer; in fact, some of you may remember the Shaman Weak Auras package I offered. Though, the one downside with Weak Auras when dealing with larger packages is multiple import strings and a somewhat sloppy installation process. In light of this, I've decided to make the whole process much easier for the end-user and offer a solution that has is far easier than having to setup a large Weak Auras package.
The addon has evolved from Weak Auras, so it has that familiar feel that you're used to. Thanks to thousands of users testing the addon, it has become something far greater than I originally expected!
How to Use
This addon has been designed to provide a high-level of customization, in terms of aura layout. It's a very simple process and can be achieved by doing the following.
- /ssa - Access "Home" window in Interface Options
- /ssa ele - Access Elemental customization options
- /ssa enh - Access Enhancement customization options
- /ssa res - Access Restoration customization options
Moving Frames
One of the most requested features was the implementation of being able to move all of the frames. It's very simple to do!
- Type "/ssa <spec>".
- Click the "Layout" tab.
- Click the "Move <spec> auras" button to open the aura movement utility.
- A grid will appear and the auras will become moveable.
Hallo,
thanks for your great job.
Is it possible to add the t20 enhancer shaman 2piece bonus?
Here is a link to the spell

Would be very great.

I'll see if I can add it to the update I'm currently working on, but I can't guarantee it. I've been working on this update for 3 weeks now and I'm not sure how much more I can add at this point :P
I've currently hit a wall with this one. I'm trying to figure out the best method of how this should be displayed. I could do another vertical progress bar, but would you say that Enhancement already has enough vertical progress bars going on?
Thanks for your answer.
i wouldnt mind to have another vertical bar. But is there a possibility to make the ability button glow (like if no flametongue is active)?
Looking forward to your solution.
Regards
Hmm, which agility button are you referring to?
The button which you get in your buff bars.
I think "icon" woudl be a better word to desribe it :D
For resto shamans is there anyway we could get a weakaura that let's us know when our t20 4 piece bonus procs, just so we don't have to keep a constant eye on our buff bar to know when to wait and cast healing rain? I loved what you did with the legionfall concordance! Now that i have my 4 piece i really try and make the most of my 50% buff to healing rain when it procs, but the icon looks the same as the 2 piece bonus so i find myself having to hover over the icons whever they pop up to make sure it's the 50% buff to healing rain so i can throw it down before it runs out. You rock!
Shouldn't be too difficult. Do you know the name of the buff, by chance?
Yes! It's "Spirit Rain"
Thank you so so so much for your efforts!
You might be happy to know that I've added a glow effect for Resto's 2 and 4-piece bonus for Healing Rain and Riptide :)
wonderful add on mate! i love it :) works perfect. How can we hide all the icons when not in combat? is there this option ? Also, is it possible to make something like that but for another class? Lets say for death knight :P
Glad to hear you love the addon! :)
There should an "OoC Alpha" (OoC = Out of Combat) slider the addon's configuration options.
Sadly, with how much work has gone into making this addon for one class, it's highly doubtful that I'll extend it over multiple classes. I've almost been working on this addon for a year now :P
Hello everyone!
I've recently start streaming on Twitch and things have been doing well. In light of this, and how well my addon is doing, I figured that making my own Discord server would be very beneficial in many ways. Everyone is invited; hopefully, this helps with quicker bug/suggestion replies! :)

Hello Sweetsour!
Thank you very much for the fantastic addon! This will really help me with my healing!
It looks like you move fast to keep this addon up to date so thanks for that too!
I see others have mentioned the spirit link timer not showing, so I'm sure you already know about that. :)
I don't know if it is a bug or if I'm not using/understanding the addon correctly. When I click on a player/NPC to target them (and a target frame pops up next to my character's frame in the upper left corner) a thin, red, vertical, 2.5-3 inch long flashing bar appears over the totem timers. The bar is also split into two segments by a line in the middle (but is not separated by a space in between, it is otherwise a single bar). The bar goes away if I deselect my target (by clicking off the target or by pressing escape). I tried looking through the addon interface (well done btw! :) but I couldn't find anything related to or would remove the red bar. The only thing I did find was that I could move the bar around when I unlocked the SSA interface (so I know it is apart of the SSA addon). There is the possibility (although I could be wrong about this) that the bar's appearance started after I changed my talent to Earthen Shield Totem and cast the spell. It is possible that Earthen Shield is also not related at all because doing this and then noticing the bar happened very soon after I installed it for the first time. So I may have just not targeted anything before that so I didn't see it until I targeted an NPC/player for the first time with the addon active and the Earthen Shield was just a coincidence. (*in Tim Curry's voice* Earthen Shield is just a red Herring). Regardless the red, flashing bar is distracting me and I'd love some help in removing it. Thank you very much! I really appreciate it!
Thanks again for the great addon! Have a good day! :D
Hey there Infinity and I'm happy to hear that you're enjoying the addon and that it's serving you well :D
That red bar is the Riptide/Tidal Waves bar. To configure it, go to the "Configuration" tab and scroll down a bit to "Tidal Waves Bar Settings" :)
Hey Sweetsour,
Appreciate your continual work on this.
I am a big fan of this add on so like to make you aware of any issues that I come across to provide you with constructive feedback. Since taking the Ascendance talent as Enhancement, I noticed that when used, the addon isn't tracking the cooldown of Windstrike which replaces Stormstrike while the talent is active. As it isn't showing, I am having to look back down at the spell bar rather than having it in the centre of the screen with the rest of the spells. I hope this makes sense :)
Thanks in advance and again, really good job with this add on, I couldn't possibly play Shaman without it!
Thank you for your compliments and I'm very happy to hear the addon is serving you well! :)
Great to know about Windstrike. I haven't touched Enhancement this expansion, so there are definitely areas of the spec that I have missed, thanks for letting me know :)
Hey sweetsour, looking forward to the next update :)
1) Seems to be a new bug with soul of the farseer equipped. The add on seems to treat it as if you only have Liquid Magma Totem active and does not count for echo of the elements extra lava burst. That is, when soul of the farseer is equipped, only one stack of lava burst is being shown. Hope that is clear.
2) I can also say that spirit link totem is not showing cooldown as mentioned by another user - I'm sure it's on your list.
3) Can I suggest making auras turn red when they cannot be cast due to insufficient mana? When healing it can be disorienting when OOM.
Thanks for your constant attention on updates! It's awesome. Keep it up!
Hey again, happy to hear from you again :)
1. Ah yes, the new lego ring; I completely forgot about it, lol. It's going to be a bit difficult to test as I haven't gotten it yet. Does it give you a permanent buff, btw?
2. Does Spirit Link's cooldown not happen while in PvP, PvE, or both? I think the fact that there's a PvE Spirit Link and a PvP one is throwing some things off.
3. That's a great idea with re-coloring the auras when low on mana!
Thanks again for the input :)
1. No permanent buff is given. The echo of elements talent is given with an orange tooltip "Learned from Soul of the Farseer." Spell ID is 108283, which is the same as default. Not sure what it is :(
2. It will happen in PvP and PvE unfortunately.
