About this addon
What it does

Vigil is a combat HUD that tracks your abilities, buffs, and debuffs. Lay it out however you want with drag-and-drop.
Vigil doesn't use Blizzard's Cooldown Manager, so there's no limit on how you customize, style, and arrange it. You can track almost any buff, debuff, or ability, including ones the Cooldown Manager won't show.
Everything works in all content, including raids, M+, and rated PvP. Blizzard's secret values system doesn't block it.
