Living Bomb and 2/3 target or AoE

[TLTeo]

I'm using the multi-target option on weak auras; it's not ideal with living bomb specifically, because it tends to mess up the timings a bit if you don't target the mob you cast the dot on, but it's good enough to know how many bombs i have up and when they will explode

I use the bomb trackers in Mage Nuggets (just about everything else in the addon is disabled because I have something else that does it better).

You will get multiple lines (bars) for each bomb that it on a mob as well as the name of the mob it is on and you see the bars getting smaller as the timer ticks down. They have a screen shot of the bomb tracker on the curse page (http://www.curse.com/addons/wow/mage-nuggets#" target="_blank).

I somehow missed this option. No matter how long I use WA, it seems like I still find out about something I dont know. Would you have a string you're willing to share? Trying to set it up now, but it doesnt appear to be wanting to work on dummies.

Edit - I had forgotten about Mage Nuggets too, I used it years ago with everything disabled for the same reasons. I'll try them both out, thanks guys.

As i said, it's not ideal for LB as sometimes the addon doesn't register the timer for bombs spread with Inferno Blast without targeting the mobs, but it's good enough for me.

Since this is a discussion about living bomb, is there a better way to track it on secondary targets? Specifically on fights like Thogar or Beastmaster, my nameplates show debuffs but only once I've targeted the mob, which makes it hard to know when to spread a new bomb. Optionally, I could just watch for the explosion spell effect, but there's already a lot of that going on during those fights.

Does anyone have a better option?

I use forteexorcist, is in curseclient I believe. For me it works very well tracking debuffs on multiple targets. But never ask me how ot customise it cause it's a mze for me. Each time I open it and successfully add something like nether tempest I feel lucky.

I have a question concerning LB Efficiency. For Example, Darmac. Wouldnt it be best to apply LB, spread it to adds, reapply LB do the main target again, let first bomb-round explode, spread the second LB of the main target (which explodes right after), and potentially spread a third round of LB (which explodes when the adds die)? In that way you can get 3 Rounds of explosions within 5 or less seconds.

It might not be ideal/practical, because you mustnt use IB until the first bomb-round exploded, but in terms of raw LB dmg optimisation, this seems to be most dps gain.

Scorchio is working really well for LB tracking.

It creates a timer-bar for your target, and when you spread, it also creates a timer-bar for each individual non target. If u switch target, it just swaps the 2 bars (old target, new target) accordingly.

It also makes a "DING"-Sound for every explosion, its really not possible to miss LB-Uptime with this addon.

How does IB determine which mobs to spread LB too?

For example, on Thogar when all the little adds appear (I forget their name), there's more than 6 adds present, so even using the IB glyph you can't spread LB to all of them in one use of IB. If you immediately use IB again (either on the same target or a different target), does it prioritize adds closest to the target, or adds that don't already have a debuff on them?

I am pretty sure it wont check to see if the buff is there or not.
