What it does

The Dashboard is the heart of CombatDash and the only window that never closes. Six color-coded cards carry your damage, effective damage, incoming damage, healing in and out, and time-to-live. A button row above opens every other window; a class section below surfaces stance, stacks and your raid-sender. You read it like an instrument panel — no hovering, no menu diving.

The six cards

DPS

Damage per second

Your average damage output, with peak and largest hit.

eDPS

Effective DPS

Real target HP-loss per second — net of the target’s healing.

INC

Incoming damage

Damage landing on you, with peak and largest hit taken.

HPS

Healing in

Healing you receive, with peak and largest heal.

OUT

Healing out

Your own heal output, with peak and largest heal.

TTL

Time to live

How long until you drop at the current incoming rate.

Anatomy

01

Six metric cards

DPS · effective DPS · INC · HPS · OUT · TTL — each with a big value, two sub-stats and a fill bar.

02

Edge bars

Full-height side bars encode live pressure — attacker count and DoT pressure on INC, the Tac/Phys split on DPS, healer count on HPS.

03

Star arcs

Half-round star arcs fill from the bottom to show bonus modifiers — map/ally buffs on you, or incoming heal pressure.

04

Window button row

Status · Tracker · Target · Heals · Cmds, then Map · Fights · Stats, then chat / color / settings icons. A button glows while its window is open.

05

Class section

Stance icon(s) far left, class LEDs in the middle, Track on the right — plus a raid-sender quickslot for Warleader & Defiler.

06

Monitor sidebars

Slim heap and frame-lag bars frame the window so you always see the plugin’s footprint.

Details

  • effective DPS card — real target HP-loss per second, accounting for the target’s own healing.
  • TTL turns amber under 15s and red under 5s: a peripheral-vision warning to disengage.
  • Commander’s-Fear / Rage / stealth indicators live in the class section, not on the cards.
  • The Commands button greys out when you are not raid or group leader.
  • Three size presets (Small / Normal / Large) with pre-baked chrome for crisp scaling.
  • A bubble landing on you pulses the whole dashboard — protection incoming.
