    Question Vuhdo and Earth Shield

    I recently made a new team with a shaman healer, and I am wondering if there is any way to get Vuhdo to show Earth Shield stacks on my tank (the tank's vuhdo window) just like it can show fx. Riptide as "other people's HOT's". It's no big issue, as I can ofc. see the Earth Shield stacks with all the other buffs, but it would be nice to have it shown in Vuhdo.

    Any ideas?

    here is a link for the vuhdo setuphttp://vuhdoguide.blogspot.com/2011/...gh.html#GenInd look for the custom buff/debuff tracking. perhaps it will allow you to set that up.

    I don't count stacks myself, I just look for the orb circling me and do one of two things:

    1) i have a repeater region setup over the buff watch frame which is setup for all my shamans to cast their shield. since i'm always looking at the tank i can see earth shield is no longer circling him, and recast. Sure this way i might be rebuffing someone else prematurely, but it works.
    2) my main dps key is '2', that's everyone but the healer. on '3' i have everyone dps and the healer does a cast sequence for riptide, earthshield and a couple of other heals directed at the tank.

    i tend to use #2 the most as no one skips a beat in their sequence, frees up my mouse for other stuff and ensures i'm getting those spells on the tank.

    hope that gives you an option you haven't tried and best of luck

    Healbot shows earth shield stacks on the target? Would be nice to have - but not sure I could learn to live without Vuhdo :S Used to be a healbot user though ...

    Anyways, I think I will just use the normal buff list for now, just wanted to be able to see on my healing frames (on tank, which is normally the one i "drives") if its time to refresh Earth Shield. Guess its a feature only a multiboxer is interested in, maybe thats why its not possible/easy available in Vuhdo.

    Oh, almost forgot: the new team went through Ragefire Casm yesterday for the first time. Was fun to see the guilds reaction on 5 x archievement. A lot of "wft" and that kind :-)

    Soon after a guild group finished a guild 5-man run and someone was complaining that "we will never get the 7 weekly guild challenges at this speed" or something along those lines, followed by: "never mind, our multiboxer will complete those in no time".

    So I have gone from "wtf", "lol" and "isn't that cheating?" to being "our multiboxer" in 2 days

    Vuhdo shows earth shield stacks as well. I believe you can turn it on under buffs.

    Yeah in my Alliance guild I think my 4 DKs + Retadin were doing all of the guild challenges pretty much solo for dungeons. Brings in some change to the guild and a good amount of rep/guild experience. But yeah you can knock out instances in a jiffy by yourself.
