How to Monitor Buffs with WeakAuras151


WeakAuras is a powerful addon for World of Warcraft that allows you to create custom user interfaces to track important information. In this tutorial, we'll show you how to use WeakAuras to monitor buffs.

Step 1: Create a New WeakAura

To create a new WeakAura, open the WeakAuras interface by typing "/wa" into the chat box. Then, click on the "New" button.

Step 2: Configure the Basic Settings

In the "Basic Settings" tab, you can configure the name, description, and trigger for your WeakAura. For this tutorial, we'll create a WeakAura to track the "Blessing of Kings" buff.

Name: Blessing of Kings Tracker

Description: Tracks the active duration of Blessing of Kings

Trigger: Buff - Blessing of Kings

Step 3: Create a Display

Next, we'll create a display for our WeakAura. Click on the "Displays" tab and then click on the "New Display" button.

In the "Display Settings" tab, you can configure the appearance of your WeakAura. For this tutorial, we'll use a simple text display.

Type: Text

Text: [remainingtime:Blessing of Kings] s

Step 4: Configure the Appearance

In the "Appearance" tab, you can configure the size, color, and position of your WeakAura. For this tutorial, we'll use a small, blue square that appears in the bottom left corner of the screen.

Size: 100x100

Color: Blue

Position: Bottom Left

Step 5: Load Your WeakAura

Once you're finished configuring your WeakAura, click on the "Save" button. Then, reload your UI by typing "/reload" into the chat box.

Your WeakAura should now be loaded and active. Whenever you receive the Blessing of Kings buff, a small blue square will appear in the bottom left corner of the screen, displaying the remaining duration of the buff.
