Back in the days I have always been using NeedToKnow to track ICDs and important buffs, but I never liked the design. All the bars added to those of my bossmods made my UI too complicated and irritating.

With the release of Cata came a bunch of other Addons that did the same job; that's when I switched to TellMeWhen. With an update TMW could pretty much do everything that NTK could, however instead of displaying your ICDs in those large bars it would simply display an icon of the trinket/skill and the ICD on top of it, taking not nearly as much space and also being easier to visualize for me.

I have been desperately searching for an addon which can do in WotLK what TellMeWhen did in Cata, and after checking several changelogs, tutorial and guide videos on youtube, game compatibility and what not on different websites like wowace, curse, curseforge and wowinterface of countless other addons like Raven, PowerAuras, WeakAuras or Extracd, I gave up and shamefully went to this forum to submit this thread.


TLDR: LF ICD-Tracking addon which displays the ICDs on top of an icon of the trinket,
NOT like NeedToKnow.

Thank you for reading.

Thanks Silynn, icdbars is just what I've been looking for.

@Headscutter and anyone trying to configure icdbars !WITH ICONS!:
There is no ingame configuration. You have to open "spells.lua" (I used my good old Text Editor), located in your World of Warcraft folder>Interface>AddOns>icdbars. I'm not too familiar with programming, and not at all with LUA, but I tried my best to figure this out.

icd_track_equip_changes = true;
icd_spells = {
["YOUR CLASS"] = {
{
Name = "ICDs",
Direction = "RIGHT",
Mode = "ICON",
Margin = 3,
size = 42, CONFIGURE SIZE
scale = 1,
posx = -184, CONFIGURE POSITION
posy = -242, CONFIGURE POSITION

{ spellName = "name of the buff", item = item ID, icd = internal cooldown in seconds}, IF YOU WANT ANY ITEM ICON SHOWN
{ spellName = "name of the buff", icd = internal cooldown in seconds}, IF YOU WANT THE BUFF ICON SHOWN
},
},
}

So as a Warrior using Whispering Fanged Skull and Deathbringer's Will it should look something like this. ICDs of DBW reach anywhere from 90 to 105 seconds in the comments on wowhead so I just set it to 100.

icd_track_equip_changes = true;
icd_spells = {
["WARRIOR"] = {
{
Name = "ICDs",
Direction = "RIGHT",
Mode = "ICON",
Margin = 3,
size = 42,
scale = 1,
posx = -184,
posy = -242,

{ spellName = "Strength of the Taunka", item = 50362, icd = 100},
{ spellName = "Speed of the Vrykul", item = 50362, icd = 100},
{ spellName = "Aim of the Iron Dwarves", item = 50362, icd = 100},
{ spellName = "Icy Rage", item = 50343, icd = 45},
},
},
}
