YACL Damage Meter Addon

Now, I know normally I only do one featured addon of the week, but this one just can’t wait. Damage meters are nothing new as far as addons are concerned. From the early days of Damage Meters to SW Stats, Recount, and a dozen others in between I’ve seen them all.

The problem with damage meters has always been their susceptibility to memory leak. Virtually every damage meter I’ve ever used has been a gigantic memory hog, but YACL is changing eveything.

Unlike other damage meter addons like recount and SW Stats which are poorly written parse programs that were designed around the sub-2.4 combat log, YACL has been built from the ground up and designed for the new combat log. Beyond that, it’s built to be lean. It’s incredibly fast and offers the same features seen in other damage meter addons without the memory issues.

Features

• Ability to show data from all fights or just your most recent fight
• Synchronize data with other members in your raid / group
• Damage Mode: Name, Damage, Time, DPS, Max, Crit, Miss, Kils
• Itemized Stats for damage, breaking down ability, damage, max, average, crit, glance, and miss
• Healing Mode: Name, Healing, Time, HPS, Max, Crit, Overheal
• Itemized Stats for healing, breaking down spell, healing, max, average, crit, and overheal
• Incoming damage mode: spell, taken, max, average, crushing, avoidance, dodge, parry, block
• Outgoing damage mode: spell, damage, max, average, crit, glancing, miss, dodge, parry, block
• Percent and Absolute Damage Modes (see items as percentage or a static number value)
• Clean and easy to move frame

All in all one of the best damage meter addons I’ve ever seen built. It’s only been out a few weeks so It’s still building steam on the raid front, but I wouldn’t be surprised at all if in another month YACL completely replaces recount, sw stats, and all other damage meters for serious raiders.
