Remove Talisman Spam

Modus

Okay, i got some Relics in my Talisman now and i get spammed all over the place by the cooldown messages.
It is quite annoying that half of my screen is full of it.
Wouldn't it be possible to add a button to each Relic, with the option to either show cooldown on hit/use or just show when the relic is ready again? Or would it be possible to have a small gump that you can activate that only shows the relics + cooldown time (or ready to use)?

yes i tried that method beforehand, but thanks for the idea. i think it is not possible to clear the 30-40 different messages (depending on the sec. of cooldown) per relic, that would be a filter of about 140 messages to be cleared.
 
I kind of look forward to seeing that on my virgin zerk talisman... T -MINUS 23 SECONDS *makes mental note about making this monster my ***** in approx 23 seconds*

you ll have 4 timers spamming all the time and no chance of seeing whats actually happening on the cooldowns in the middle of the heat.

If it's possible to have a countdown timer displayed within the existing talisman gump beside each relic (starts at the maximum cool-down time and stops at 0) that would be amazing.

I experienced the same situation, could not read guild or ally chat coz of the constant timer ..
Dunno if your using a auto attack grey/mob script macro, but i added a pause 1000 or 2000 sentence to the macro, so i atleast could try to read the guild/ally chat..

The spam is a bit annoying I agree. Would it be better to be able to ask for the time on demand? Like [doublestriketimer and it'll output the timer message or a "doublestrike ready" message? I wouldn't mind hitting a macro to see the timer once and awhile. This would be especially useful for tread where you don't want to lose the 10 stamina if you try it too early.

I like the info but it would be more helpful if it just told you when it was ready. I like the messages for infectious and double strike knowing it is coming soon but something like Tread there are so many times where I think it is ready, I drink a red pot, and step on the target only to see I still have 1-2 seconds until it is ready. Phase shift is another one I don't have but would be helpful to know that if I target a mob in that 8 tile distance it will activate.

I tried to set up some type of looping warning script that would trigger counters and head messages when they reached a set time but never got it working. It would only really be useful to me for tread when fighting a single boss that is getting tanked by someone else so I didn't put much effort into it.

With a automatic attack all grey macro i kinda like to see when the timer is about to get rdy, so i can run back from the masses of mobs or stay clear from the little room behind the deceit altar so i dont die....
For me the solution was just to add a pause something to the line of auto-attack grey macro..
