Are there any good mod for battlegrounds that I should know about? Even if it's class-specific mods that are good for that class to use in battlegrounds?
I think SSPvP is one of the best. Panza is great for the healers. The addons I already use would be an awfully long list, I'm just seeing if anyone knows any good ones that are possibly a little more obscure and not well known.
I use two
AB Helper EFS Redux -- it nicely tells you who owns what node, which are in conflict and how long until they cap. It'll tell you how long the game will last... and if you are behind, how many nodes you need to catch up and win.
The only downside is it's only for AB. I didn't realize how useful it was until I was in AV going, "how much longer until IB caps?". Someone was using one (I htink SSPvP) in AV last night and reporting how long until things capped.
The other one I use is called RankScore (Available from curse-gaming, not here). It keeps track of your progress through the ranks and can make predictions of how long it'll take you to make certain ranks etc. It tells me I'm 2 weeks to rank 8... so in 2 weeks, move aside from me on the bgs.. I'll be movin' 15% faster!).
I'll have to check out titanbattleground. I've been tempted to try out titan. I currently get most of the information from InfoBar, so I haven't been hardpressed to switch.
I need to find a good debuf timing mod. I need to know how long until a rogue's stunlock will expire so I can try breaking it in a gap. I also need to know how long my feral charge expires so I can bash and not leave a gap.
Any suggestions on the timing mod?
One I saw come out the other day I've been considering trying is an extension to smartheal to take range into account. One of my problems with healing in AV is knowing who's around me to heal.... just seeing that a party memeber is dying doesn't really hell... they might be on D and I'm on O or vice versa. I haven't installed smart heal because I don't really want it... its one of those healing crutches that let you push one button to heal the lowest person in the party with the right rank of spell... so I probably still won't install it.
So I read up on TitanBG and it is indeed the most complete. It shows queue times, length of times till cap... and a really nice feature of raid management. I can handle auto-adding poeple when they come into the raid... auto disbanding it when its done... auto accepting the invites... leaving when you're done etc.
Since i dont have titan panel installed, I tried out SSPvP. It's got a lot of the same stuff Titan has. I'm actually rather happy with it. It allows me to auto-accept invites. It'll auto-realese when dead in a bg. It'll even auto-accept BG invites 20-30s after they pop UNLESS you hid them.
It does the AV timers as well... Since it takes 5 minutes to cap a graveyard, it's nice to know how much longer you ahve to wait, or how much longer you have to get a GY back before your opposing faction steals it.
One thing it was supposed to do which I didn't get to work is show you who has the flag in WSG. It's supposed to overlay the name right next to the WSG N/3 capture count.
I'll play with SSPvP a little more and report back. I haven't been in an AB (they happen seldomly on my server), so I'll see how it works in there and if it conflicts with AB Helper (Which I really like).
I figured it out, it was an option in the WSG tab in the config GUI. One nice thing about it also is if you click on the name of the person who has the flag out, you'll either target them or get a message that they're not in range. Nice if you wanna nuke the flag carrier.
Oh, yeah, I use Shift-tab to select an enemy carrier and control-tab to select our carrier. I also have control-Q to put a purple diamond on my selected target, I like to put a diamond on our carrier.
Is control-Q part of the standard interface or a mod you have? I'd like to be able to put a cosmetic mark on my target. There is actually a thread on the community forums where someone is asking to do exactly that.
Is there one that lets you autojoin the BG when you are in the queue and you are ready? Would like to do other things like housework while waiting for BG :)
