BuffOverlay

Due to addon restrictions introduced in Midnight, BuffOverlay has zero way to properly function for 12.0 and beyond. So long, and thanks for all the fish.

This extremely lightweight addon was created for people to quickly and easily see active auras on other players by overlaying that aura on that player's unitframe so you can adjust your gameplay accordingly. Despite its name, BuffOverlay can track both buffs and debuffs.

By default, all immunity and damage reduction abilities have been added.

Type /bo or /buffoverlay to open the options panel or /bo help for more info/commands.

   

Multi Aura-Bar Support

You can have multiple (as many as you want) separate "bars" of auras on your frames, each with their own unique configuration.
