Is it possible to reevaluate shield strength more often? Animation canceld shields and/or multiple shields create wrong numbers (shield number dont reset etc.),

Is it possible to get it to show different shields separately? I'm running hardened ward and annulment, would be nice to have an indicator that says which shields needs to be restored Thanks

in few words the counter is Always on without you have a shield.

a good add should be a resize option and an Alpha background changer.
Invalid values seems to be game bug: http://www.esoui.com/forums/showthread.php?t=4572

There's something wrong with it when you use multiple shields. the values don't always reset after the shields dissipate. blazing shield + spiked bone shield for example.

It depends on which unitTags game uses in EVENT_UNIT_ATTRIBUTE_VISUAL_UPDATED. I'm pretty sure that it is possible for target ('reticleover'), but I have no idea if it will work for group members.

Thank you very much Garkin! It turned out fantastic!

I just gave it a quick test-drive, tried multiple shields and tried stacking them. So far everything seems very smooth and works really well.

I tried Blazing Shield, Annulement, Brawler, the Hardening enchantment, Ally Ward and the Shield from Shielded Assault.

I think for tanks and healers/dds who like to pull up a shield this addon provides very valuable information.

Again, thank you very much for responding to this request.

Addon shows absorption shield - how much damage points you will absorb before attacks start lowering your health pool. It has nothing to do with durability.
Thanks for clarifying this to me.

You could just integrate it into the bar that pops up when you use a shield... Hope it gets better, too bulky to use for me, at the moment.
To get the box to go away right click it and click save. The only thing that should be showing once you have positioned it and saved it is the text. If you are seeing a box outline it isn't saved.

As far as the usefulness of the addon, I suppose it depends on the class one plays. As a Templar, in PvP, this addon is instantly essential for me due to non-healer, non-zerg Templar needing to rely so heavily on blazing shield in PVP. Though you are right that being able to change the text size/font ect would be nice. A selection of display formats would be nice as well.
