The two addons I’ve used for scrolling battle text are Parrot and Mik’s Scrolling Battle Text; both perform the same function and both are equally customisable.
The main difference is MSBT uses a lot less memory. Having tested both MSBT used 304KiB were as Parrot uses 1.25MiB!
Personally I prefer the native font of Parrot to MSBT’s comic sans font but this can be easily changed in Mik’s Scrolling Battle Text by typing “/msbt“.
‘Watcher’ the addon I previously talked about has been replaced by scrolling battle text which gives me a visual cue in the middle of the screen when cool downs are up.
