    Having trouble tracking Sacred Shield with addons, anyone able to assist?

    Hey folks,

    I'm having trouble tracking Sacred Shield properly with addons. Currently when you use Sacred Shield you gain 2 buffs, 1 is the 30 second duration buff, and the other is the absorb shield. I'm trying to track the 30 second buff, but both Power Auras and Need to Know keep tracking the absorb shield instead - I've even tried adding the spell ID for power auras but still no luck. Anyone managed to get around this issue yet?

    Class Timers is the only one I've used so far that picks up on both buffs from Sacred Shield.
    And eight, eight, I forget what eight was for

    If you are using Vudho, try to enter Spell ID (wowhead.com), instead of buff name and should be ok.

    I'll give Class Timers a try then, thanks for your help.

    i've tracked sacred shield with needtoknow and sometimes it picks up the 6seconds tick but most of the time it'll pick up the 30 second buff. I just put the bar bright yellow so when i dont see it anymore i just hit it again.

    i know this might not be the best case scenario for you but protection paladins aren't GCD locked anymore and i find many times the opportunity mid-combat to refresh sacred shield.

    as a last resort, i hit the key sporadically before every trash pull. it doesn't cost any mana to boot

    Vuhdo, I love you for a reason!!


    Open your options, Go to Panels, click on HoT Icons.
    From there you can add Sacred Shield to the list.

    Doesn't Sacred Shield have a really obvious visual? I use that pretty bubble as my tracking hehe, when I don't see it, I refresh it.

    I imagine once clcpbt gets updated it will track it as well.

    ElvUI class timers Tracks both of them, atleast it does on my setup.

    Grid unfortunately tracks the 6 sec buff, not the spell. What i've done is go to status, enable the buff and then tick "Show if mine" and "Show if missing". That way if i see it pop on my grid, I know that I have to cast it. It's not that optimal but works for me at least for now.

    Not always. Fights like Ultraxion where I'm stacked with everyone or stacked with the melee it can be difficult to see if its on myself. I end up just refreshing it off cooldown, if there isn't an available HP generator to hit.

    Had problems with this myself, and searched on Google and came in this thread. No answer yet, but I managed to figure it out myself, so here it is.

    If you want to use the 30-second buff with NeedToKnow, you only have to enter the spell ID instead of the name, which is 20925, and voila! Will probably work with Power Auras aswell (although you might have to add some brackets around it, like this: [20925] )

    My power auras show the 30 second buff

    I have got it set up to show the 6 second buff (so I know when each absorb resets) and then will show a second icon counting down from 10 when its due to expire.
    Have done that both within Vuhdo and Healbot.

    I actually looked the spell up on Wowhead and neither spell ID I tried worked, but this one did. Thanks. :D
