Addon Spotlight.

My first Addon Spotlight happens to be of an addon no enhancement shaman should be without, "Shock and Awe". The creator of this is a well known and well respected player in the shaman community a Draenei shaman "Levva", full credit must go to him for this great addon.

I'll explain some the key aspects of this addon in today's post.


In this post I'm going to going to go over some basic features and settings of the addon.
this addon brings a lot of beneficial utility's to a raiding shaman, for example "Timers Bars", Priority setup, and Shield awareness. All aspects needed to maintain your dps at it's maximum.




In this screen shot the "Priority Box" and Cool down Timers/Bars" are in Display. Lets start with the "Priority Box".

As you can see in the screen shot the addon displays your next priority attack based on your list of attacks you provided in setup. It will also display wind shear if your threat begins to reach the tanks.
Underneath that box you will notice 5 small boxes, these boxes are to indicate how many stacks of "Maelstrom Weapon" you possess at that moment in combat, once they reach 5 it will indicate, that you have full maelstrom.



Now on to the Cool down Bars, these bar here to show you how long in which your attacks have left on there cool down's, how many charges of lightning shield and Maelstrom weapon you possess, and how long in which your attacks have left on the target. A great mechanic in order to keep your cool downs in check and help keep your dps at it's maximum as well.


Another great feature in this addon is the ability to keep your "Shields" and "Weapon Enhancements" in check via sounds warnings and screen indicators. You can setup these options in the addons page. The sounds range from a wide variety of options from Submarines to Rubber ducky's, again allowing you to keep your dps at its maximum.

My over all opinion on this addon is that its something no shaman should be without, it covers everything you need to keep track of while in combat to help maximize your full potential.
