Details! Damage Meter has a Forever version and does more than show damage. This setup keeps it useful without filling your screen.

Steps

  1. Two windows. Window 1: damage done. Window 2: deaths.
  2. Death log on click. Clicking a death shows the last hits and heals. That's where you learn.
  3. Segments: current fight only while leveling; switch to overall for dungeon runs.
  4. Turn off the plugins you don't use.
  5. Lock both windows once they're where you want them.

When the meter lies

Short fights and add phases skew numbers. Compare full dungeon runs, not single pulls.

Other meters: Skada Damage Meter and Recount have no Forever version yet. Comparison: damage meters in Forever.
