@Lyth – Yea, I run oRA2 and still use X-Perl for my non-raid frames, so I kept X-Perl’s MT window. Thanks for all the tips!

i run with center icons disabled because some curses and so on are a waste of gcd to clean whereas others are absolutely imperative depending on where you raid. For those being needless to remove i quickly found it annoying that i couldn’t see all information because the center icons appeared on top of other grid information like centertext 1 and 2.

centertext1 -unitname
centertext2 -health deficiency/ hots and which ones
top left square – incoming heals
top right square – aggro alert
bottom left square – curse/poison/magic/
bottom right square – custom debuffs that are color coded
border indicates low mana

range filter is set to 40 yards only.

the reason everything is set up this way is because nothing ever overlaps my information and i can always see which and how many hots i have rolling and for how long.

About the druid dispellables vs. other dispellables: wherever you can set those debuffs (status->auras->whatnot) put the priority for the debuffs you can dispel at 99, and the others at like 90. This should be accomplished with the slider bar that shows up underneath the “enable” box. 99 is typically the default. This will make your dispellable debuffs show up first and then the ones that you cannot dispel. Anything else you have showing on that centericon or sideicon, wherever your debuffs show up, set to a lower than 99 priority. This way, you’re only using one space for all debuffs. And you don’t have fifty million colors to remember, which might happen if you do it the way one person offered. (Not saying it’s wrong… I’m just too ADD for that =P)

Personally, centericon is the best as it can actually show a picture of the debuff and you can know what spell needs to be cast. Plus, you can set the size of the centericon so it can itty bitty or nearly the whole frame. It gives you a little play with what else you’re trying to see behind the icon. There is a SideIndicatorIcons module as well that do the same. These, too, can be used to see raid icons (StatusRaidIcon module) appearing on people throughout encounters. THAT is a godsend for some prehealing love ^.^

Good luck with configuring your Grid! It could be a game in and of itself XD

Through some additional research today, I think I am going to pick up Grid Status AFK; Grid Status Raid Icons; Grid Indicator Text 3; Grid Quick Health (is this still recommended?); and the Grid Side Icons.

I’m going to continue to tinker with it and see if I can get it configured to something that I can work with

On my grid, I have 3 different locations dedicated for Poison/Curse/Disease/Magic debuffs.

Left side: Curse [Purple dot]
Bottom-left: Poison [Green dot]
Bottom side: Disease/Magic [Brown/Blue dots] — as a Resto Druid, I don’t need to cleanse these, so simply knowing if they’re present is usually enough info.

There may be a way to make the bottom indicator show a 3rd color if both disease and magic debuffs are present. If not, you can also just move one of the indicators to another slot.

I use color borders for encounter-specific debuffs such as Sara’s Fervor / Blessing, Dominate Mind, etc. Generally I try to use green borders for MC effects, red for severe damage effects, brown for lesser damage effects, and so forth. I haven’t had any trouble with Dominate Mind appearing correctly.

I set up my frames so that the actually color of the bar goes green or purple for poisons or curses, which did help some. However, I think I need to prioritize poisons over the curse, as I have more time to cleanse that curse than I do the poison!

I will try to play with it more tonight and see what I can come up with, as well as try and dig for more information on the different bells and whistles that can be used to tweak it!

I will also take a peek at your grid set up module and see if I can get any tidbits from it =) I really am going to give it a solid try, I want to like it…I really, really do!

I really like the raid status debuffs. As a raid leader, I have to know what is going on in the raid at any given time so that I can “cleanse so and so” in vent, etc!

Frame->Center Icon->Debuff: Sara’s Blessing

I also have Sara’s Anger.

I don’t use the Raid Debuffs module, though, so I haven’t had any issue with the Dominate Minds, since they never show up at all. I just set my poison/curse debuffs (and any specific debuffs I add manually) to show up in the “center icon,” a default Grid placement. I intentionally don’t have my grid show magic or disease debuffs, since I can’t do anything about them anyway

I’ll check my settings for Sara’s Blessing once I get home for lunch…
