    Is there an addon that makes cleansable debuffs more pronounced on the raid bars?

    I moved from Grid to the stock WoW raid bars because they were just better, but the one thing I missed from Grid is the how easily it was to see the debuff icon over a raid member's HP. The icon on the stock WoW is just tiny and it takes me precious seconds to find it unlike the old Grid that popped out in my face.

    Are there any addons that can change this? I tried Decursive, but all that is is a message with the name of the person on the screen, I don't want a message, I want an icon over the person's HP bar.

    Fan of SUF outlines with icons in party frame. Very easy to fix at a glace.

    decursive has served me well since 2007 in BC but I also use vuhdo raid frames that show debuffs I can cleanse. Decursive makes a seperate nice buttons that light up and also a distinct sound.

    I tried Decursive and didn't like it. It popped a button, but didn't show WHO on the raid bars actually had it. No point in showing a name on screen if I then have to search for that name on the unit frames. Would waste precious seconds.

    With Decursive you can just click the lit up Decursive frame and it'll automatically dispell. Also if you hover over a frame it'll show you the name of the person.

    This is assuming only 1 raid member has the debuff. What if I need to prioritize (say myself or a tank) over others?

    And again, showing the name doesn't help unless I have every one memorized in every position on the unit frames. Showing me the name means I'll have to then search for said person among 19+ others and waste precious seconds. I prefer a big ass shiny icon popping up over all those who need a cleanse and I pick the one to cleanse.

    What made you move from grid in the first place? I still use it.

    Cross referencing to Icy-Veins forum there is a really good post showing a lot of configuration steps for those a bit put off by VuhDo

    I like that the WoW's version shows incoming heals and shields on the HP bar. Grid did not. Also like that it shows the buff's duration in a nice visible fashion. It's also the WoW's default UI so it takes up less memory than an addon which is never a bad thing.

    It basically beats Grid in everything except the debuff icon.

    This one has some good settings, not sure, but I think it does what you want.

    Grid has plugins which does all of the above. The WoW version is shamelessly copied from Grid.

    I use Elv UI and it has everything already set up so beautifully.

    Alternatively, try out Vuhdu.
