What is a Cooldown Manager?

Cooldown Manager is a new system that has replaced many different Weak Auras and other modifications that allow you to customize the display of the recovery time of the required abilities, as well as the appearance and duration of buffs.

Thanks to this system, you can easily customize the display of the abilities you need and always see all the important pros and cooldowns.

How do I set up a Cooldown Manager?

Setting up this option is extremely simple. You just need to select the necessary buffs and abilities, the format of their display, and then adjust the place where they are displayed on your screen.

Enabling the Cooldown Manager

To enable this feature, you need to go to Options -> Gameplay Enhancements and check the box in the Cooldown Manager section.

Setting Up a Cooldown Manager

To set up the tracker, you need to click on the Advanced Cooldown Settings button. You will be taken to a menu with your abilities. Let's take a closer look at which item is responsible for what.

Spells

In this section, you can configure the display of the recovery time of the spells and proks you need. The cooldown time will be displayed on the ability icon, and when the ability is used, it will have a special glow.

There are two levels of abilities in total, from large icons to small ones. You can move them to the desired field or remove them if you do not need to display them.

  • Essential Cooldowns (top line)
  • Utility Cooldowns (bottom line)

  • Tracked Bars (top row).

Now you can customize the appearance and location of the buffs and abilities you need in more detail.

Useful things

  • Each row is independent and you can drag them to any place on your screen. However, it is currently impossible to drag individual icons or lines. But you can group important and not the most important abilities, moving them to different places if necessary.

  • When you hover over the icon or line, you can see the data about the ability or buff. You can also disable this feature by leaving only the display.

  • The Cooldown Manager shows only those abilities and blessings that belong to your class and have been studied in the talent tree. Tracking accessories and other sources of buffs that do not belong to your class is not possible, but such an opportunity will appear in the future according to the developers.
