Vuhdo killer feature for resto druids

Hello,

I just wanted to share something that can greatly benefits resto druids. Maybe I'm just stating the obvious or the already well known but Vuhdo has a great feature that completely changed my resto gameplay. It's the hot minibars.

I play most of the time with germination, meaning I have 3 main hots to monitor: 2 rejuv (2 blue minibars), and 1 lifebloom (purple minibar). Efflorescence has already a visual effect making it easy to track and wild growth is not a hot you want to maintain.

This make tracking hots on your party/raid a piece of cake. You know exactly which hot is about to expire and you can anticipate refreshs, especially in those hard hitting mythic10+, making sure your tank is never running out of hots.

Here's the minibars in action:

Here's the vuhdo profile, but you may simply play with the hot bar options and colors:

Thanks for sharing your profile, bobifle.

Can you please post a screenshot/video of this configuration being used in a 20+ raid?

If I may ask, do you find the timers on the regular HoT icons in VuhDo not being satisfactory?

I raid exclusively  in 15- raids, most of the time around 12 nice people. (I don't do mythics). I'll post a screen. Regarding your specific question, I've been using hot icons in the past and there's a huge difference to me (in favor of minibars).

With icon timers, I had to check them one by one, read the (tiny) numbers and then evaluate.

With minibars, in one quick look I have a picture of all my hots, superposed with the health bar. I instantly knows if my tanks are running out of hots, if a low hp mate is missing any of the 2 rejuv. It may take a little bit of practice but it's like reading the whole sentence at once instead of going word by word. I think minibars are better for the same reason than health bars are better than a grid of XX%.

Now I understand that for 25 ppl raids, things may be slightly different. You can't afford to micro manage hots (germination may not be something you'd use) and it's more about CD managements in order to focus on big aoe heal with high throughput. But still, minibars would be as effective than icons and they make a lot of sense the less people you play with.

Edit: here's a 14 man raid screen:

You can instantly see that there's no hot on the tanks, lifebloom is missing

      Help and tips about lack of HPS
      By Pocimas
      Hello everyone,
      I want to ask for any tips on my logs, since I think I'm doing something wrong with my resto druid.
      I have good gear (currently 958 ilvl) but I see other druids with similar or less gear do way higher HPS than me on the logs. I think I should be doing more than 900/1k hps, but rarely go above 700 in many fights.
      Here are a couple of logs of Antorus hc:
      https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/cHZLXF1t8J7YMwBT
      https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/zGB27L8KYp4HXJZQ
      I searched the logs and I think one of my main problems for the lack of healing is the rejuvenations. Other druids do far more healing with same or less rejuvs, since my average casts is around 450k (and other druids go up to 750 or even 1000).
      I don't know if it's a problem with timing or overhealing (other healers snipping me), but I want to know other opinions.
      Thanks a lot for your help.

      [Resto] Help improving my HPS
      By Kaezy
      Hello!
      I think I am doing something seriously wrong with my resto druid. I have pretty decent gear but I see other druids with similar or less gear do way higher HPS then me on my recount meter. I've run simulations that said i should be getting 900hps but that's rather rare to see. During M+ runs when we're taking high damage i've seen 1-1.2mil hps - but in Antorus I feel like I'm stuck at 400-600hps
       
      Recently I've gone up 20 item levels and gotten 3 T21 pieces but haven't seen my hps improve much. I've switched from spring blossoms to double rejuv in hopes that i could hit higher hps but today in Heroic Antorus i was still the lowest healer (sorry no logs from that)
       
      Here are some logs from a guide I've been doing normal with:
      https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/fAaV8v4YPbk6W1tD#fight=last&type=summary&source=15
      https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/fAaV8v4YPbk6W1tD#fight=4&type=summary&source=15
       
      Any advice or help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!!

      weak aura for 10 yard range check?
      By repodude
      Hello! 
      I'm pretty good with weak auras and even some lua code but i cannot for the life of me figure out how to make this weak aura.
      heres the basic function i want:
      Prototype Personal Decimator - only fires a missile when you are at least 10 yards away.
      I want the icon to show when I am <10 yards ( too close) to my target to remind me to back up. Once i am >=10 yards, i want the icon to hide.
      it sounds simple but i cant figure it out
      can anyone help me figure this out please ? :)

      Vuhdo Resto Profile
      By Huyana
      Recently downloaded Vuhdo, and I'm completely lost on how to set it up. I was wondering if anyone had any restoration druid profiles they'd be willing to share along with screenshots of how it looks? Thank you in advance!

      How to add custom trinket debuff to Vuhdo
      By Pocimas
      Hi,
      I want to add Deceiver's Grand Design buff to my Vuhdo UI, but I'm not sure about how to do it.
      I've tried with a bouquet, but when I cast trinket no icon is added to panels.
      How could I do it?
      Thanks
