Awareness, GTFO addon. Realm Gear Rank 1! EU 33! Za + Zg Hard?! MEGA UPDATE!

O life it good at the moment the sun has been shining all day, my friends are amazing I am starting to date some one amazing she is smart tall funny and cute (No she does not play WoW) Although i could teach her... xD! My guild is great work has become more of a joy than a chore, I can say that in the past year and the half i have never felt so happy with my life at the moment.

So after this week's raid i finally took over faib as the highest gear ranked player on the server according to wow progress. Yay, Only thing i miss is a ring which to be honest our guilds luck with rings is none existant so i may fall abit behind depending on dkp ;)


Is Zul'Gurub or Zul'Aman really that hard? Well anything is hard when the players you play with suffer from tunnel vision! My only advice is blizzard has said future content will be difficult as it has to last, so pug only when you have no other option.

I haven't personally ran Zg or ZA yet but my guild one shotted the timed run so i doubt it is amazingly difficult, sadly i have an obssesion with rare mounts now? No idea where it has come from but after only 15 hours camping for Aeonaxx i guess why not! When you only raid one day a week alot of your time is free.

I'd like to send a personal thank you out to pondie for making and creating the website http://www.tlpdresource.com/, it is an amazing website full of facts and dedication.

Well done pondie, keep up the good work!

A popular topic for none tunnel vision noobs and possible soloution!

Hands up for people who can only watch grid or dps rotations and die to fire?

Meeeeeeeeeeeeee!

I have searched endlessly for an addon which may prevent such future problems and my search is at an end with the

GTFO Addon!

GTFO provides an audible alert when you’re standing in something you’re not supposed to be standing in. In some cases, you’ll be warned before you start taking damage. This mod improves your situational awareness and is recommended for dungeon divers and raiders of all skill levels as even the most seasoned veteran sometimes needs a reminder to GTFO.

It’s particularly useful for individuals that play with their spell graphics turned down as well as assisting with PvP when you can’t tell who’s casting the AOE.

Features

• 4 distinct audible alerts for different types of damage
  • High Alert – Dungeon/raid encounter AOE that you want to get out of it ASAP
  • Low Alert – PvP and low damage AOE, use your best judgment whether or not to move
  • Fail Alert – AOE you should have moved out of the way of, but it’s too late (e.g. KZ void zone, Sindragosa bomb)
  • Friendly Fire Alert – AOE radiating from a teammate’s body, one of you needs to move
• Tuned for dungeons and raids in original vanilla WoW, Burning Crusade, Wrath of the Lich King, and Cataclysm
• Alert you before you start taking damage (when possible, in some cases)
• Alert you during vehicle fights when your vehicle is in danger (e.g. Malygos, Flame Leviathan)
• Tank and non-tank specific alerts
• Visual alerts available when used with Power Auras Classic (optional)
• Statistical information of alerts when used with Recount (optional)
• GTFO-specific volume slider
• Small memory footprint and very little CPU usage
• Option to ignore alerts for trivial content
• Option to auto-unmute sounds if you play without sound on

Usage

Install and you’re ready to go.
You can configure the mod by typing “/gtfo options” or by navigating to Options->Interface->AddOns->GTFO.
To use the “Play sounds when muted” option and still hear GTFO sounds, your “Master Volume” slider must be set to a value higher than 0%.

Power Auras Integration

GTFO can be set up with Power Auras to provide visual alerts in addition to (or in lieu of) the audible alerts.

1. Install the Power Auras Classic addon
2. Type “/powa” in game to bring up the Power Auras menu
3. Click “Page 1″ to create a character-only alert or “Global 1″ to create an account-wide alert
4. Click “new” to create a new alert
5. Change the dropdown value for “Activation By:” to “GTFO Alert”
6. Select your alert type: High/Low/Fail/Friendly Fire
7. Use the other configuration options to fine-tune your alert

Recount Integration

GTFO can be set up with Recount to provide detailed statistical information of alerts.
A word of caution: the damage amount displayed on GTFO Alerts may not be fully indicative of the total damage done, especially with fail alerts. For example: if you’re hit by a tornado, the damage and fail alert from the tornado picking you up could be 5k, but the fall damage when you hit the ground afterwards is 100k. The amount recorded by Recount will be 5k.
