Tank Alert is a lightweight addon designed for tank players who want clear and immediate visual feedback during combat.
Instead of relying on the combat log, Tank Alert displays important defensive events directly on your screen, helping you stay focused on the fight while tracking your defensive performance.
Features
Combat Alerts

-

-
Parry an attack
-
Dodge an attack
The addon can also display the amount blocked when available.
Customizable Icons
You can choose whether to show or hide icons for:
-

This allows you to keep the alerts simple or make them more visually noticeable.
Defensive Counters
Tank Alert includes counters that track how many times you have:
-
Blocked
-
Parried

Dodged
This makes it easy to monitor your defensive performance during gameplay.
Counter Reset
Counters can be reset at any time using the reset button.
Counters are also automatically reset when logging out of the game.
Optional Backgrounds
Alerts can be displayed with an optional background for improved visibility during intense encounters.
Why Use Tank Alert?
During dungeons, raids, and other challenging content, defensive events can easily go unnoticed in the standard combat log.
Tank Alert provides immediate visual feedback whenever your character successfully avoids or mitigates damage, helping you:
-
Improve combat awareness
-
Track defensive performance
-
Better understand your mitigation during encounters
-
Stay focused on the action instead of watching combat logs
Lightweight and Simple
Tank Alert is designed to do one thing well: provide clear defensive notifications without unnecessary complexity or performance impact.
