Cant seem to find one that does both for 3.3, any suggestions? Primarily for a moonkin, looking to get SquawknAwe too

Hmm. I guess you could multiply DPS by 60, right?

That's probably Damage Per Mana, not minute.

Oh yea, good point. Strike what I said.

Yes, looking for dmg per mana. It looks like there was one called SpellDPS that would work, but it is reported that it wont even function in 3.3. Anyone?

Personally, I've never seen anyone using DPM as a metric for anything IN the game. It's cited outside in theorycraft to choose what to cast and when and how to gear up with that in mind. You might be relatively unique in your interest in seeing this while you're playing.

My second main, I guess you could say, is an Arcane Mage. I understand the relevance to the class and spec, but I can't say as I've ever wondered what it was DURING a boss fight. That's all I'm saying.

I am trying to make a Noomkin...I coin the term if not already claimed :P

That is, Not-Oomkin. People dont like waiting for Oomkins, so I don't want to be one. In addition to that, trying to build it to be a Restokin at the same time. I think I bit off more than I can chew, but we'll see how it goes. I am currently using DrDmg, which displays everything I want but the options interface is all text directories...horrible. In addition, there is no option for the metrics not to appear as a tooltip upon bar hover, so it is clutter. I would prefer to see it only on the spells tab, b/c you are right,I don't need nor desire to see my dpm in the middle of a fight, only the relative measures for my char in particular.

btw here is my proposed spec, with innervate glyph being swapped in if needed.

I have and continue to go see Dr. Damage with all of my calculation ills. I'm reasonably sure you are not accurately articulating the available options. I have, for example, turned off much of the information I don't need on my rogue. In addition, there is an option to disable the tooltip during combat (i believe) which solves for your not wanting to know all the time.

This kind of addon has been invaluable to me leveling healers where HPM is a really high concern during instances, since the mana regen mechanics aren't yet well developed at that tier.
