What does it do?
Ever wanted to know when a certain ability will come off cooldown, but you're too caught up in a fight to notice? Doom_CooldownPulse is designed to fix that problem! It flashes the icon of the ability in the middle of your screen whenever it becomes usable again.
Great! Now.. how do I set it up?
Doom_CooldownPulse requires no initial setup; just install and you're good to go! However, the options frame (which is accessable by typing <b>/dcp</b>) allows very easy customization. You can change all of the following:
- Icon size
- Icon position (press the unlock button)
- Fade in time
- Fade out time
- Max opacity (transparency)
- Max opacity hold time
- Animation scaling (how big/small it gets when it flashes)
- Cooldowns to ignore
- Overlay color for pet cooldown pulses
It is intended to be very easy to customize, and your changes take effect immediately. You can see how your settings will look by pressing the "Test" button, or reset them to the default settings by pressing the "Defaults" button.
For those getting the

Error its just because of an empty blacklist, add something random in there (doesnt need to exist) and the error is fixed. I added lolthiserror and now it works fine, dont try to add something that makes sense or exists or it will blacklist an actual spell.
In reply to Eltreum:
Thanks for your tip - now everything works as it should :-)
not working in 9.0.2
I have tried /dcp to open the settings menu and it does not open the panel. Please help.
Is this addon still working? It's not working on my Rogue. I have the addon installed and checked in the addon tab. When my abilities come off of cool down no icon is displaying. When I test the addon it is working.
Yeah there seems to be a cooldown for the 30 second item swap cooldown or some other effect that is triggering when activating an On Use trinket, separate from the actual trinket cd
disregard
I cant seem to get this to load. it says its enabled and i've disabled every other addon and it still wont show, typed in <b>/dcp</b>) , didnt work
would love to see a feature to disable the cooldown flash of buffs that end, an example being the sinful aspirant's badge of ferocity, when the buff fades the icon flashes.
I'm having an issue where DCP is popping up my Sinful Aspirant's Badge of Ferocity when there is still 40 seconds left on CD. any ideas? thank you :)

Quick fix for 9.0
Open Doom_CoolDownPulse.lua in a text editor
Find (in line 383)
local optionsframe = CreateFrame("frame","DCP_OptionsFrame",UIParent)Replace with
local optionsframe = CreateFrame("frame","DCP_OptionsFrame",UIParent,"BackdropTemplate")Hey, any chance of an update for patch 9.0 ? thanks in advance !
Is it possible to add Masque support for this addon again?
I dont understand why this is missing since the last updates.
Usually you should be able to change the border/skin to match the UI.
would be cool if you could add an option to show the icon when a charge comes off CD. lets say i use swiftmend, which i have 2 charges of. when that 1st charge comes off cd, i'd like to see it.
Great addon! Do you plan to add support for cooldown reduction effects like Ineffable Truth? Would be awesome. Thanks!
Cant get this addon to work in classicThanks for the best cooldown plugin on the market. As a feature request: it'd be good to be able to hear some notification sound each time cd pops
Great addon, I just wish there was a profile setting so different characters could have it in different places. Right now it's one setup for everyone so if you rearrange your UI for each character like I do, you have to build them all around where DCP is going to show up rather than being able to move DCP for just that character.
- nevermind you have to make sure you have name plates on ... doh.
