[New World] Proposal: Damage & Healing Meters Addon (Similar to Recount in WoW)

As a player and community member of New World, I propose the development of a damage and healing meters addon, similar to the popular "Recount" addon used in World of Warcraft. This addon would provide players with detailed insights into their performance during PvE and PvP encounters, enabling them to optimize their gameplay and contribute more effectively to their groups.

Features:

  1. Damage Meter:

    • Tracks total damage done by each player in a party or raid.

    • Displays DPS (Damage Per Second) metrics.

    • Provides a breakdown of damage by ability/skill.

  2. Healing Meter:

    • Tracks total healing done by each player.

    • Displays HPS (Healing Per Second) metrics.

    • Shows healing breakdown by ability/spell.

  3. Customizable UI:

    • Allows players to resize, reposition, and customize the look of the meter windows.

    • Offers options for real-time updates or end-of-combat summaries.

  4. Data Sharing:

    • Allows players to share their meters with others in the group or guild chat.

    • Includes options for exporting data for analysis outside the game.

  5. Performance Analysis:

    • Helps players identify underperforming abilities or skills.

    • Supports self-improvement by providing detailed reports on combat efficiency.

Benefits to the Community:

  • Enhanced Gameplay: By offering insights into performance, players can refine their strategies and improve both individual and group efficiency.

  • Community Engagement: This addon would encourage more collaborative and competitive gameplay, fostering a more engaged player base.

  • Content Creation: Streamers and content creators would have a valuable tool for analyzing and discussing gameplay, further promoting New World.

Conclusion: This addon would be a valuable asset to the New World community, offering both casual and competitive players the tools they need to enhance their gameplay experience. I believe this feature aligns with the community’s desire for more in-depth performance metrics and would greatly contribute to the game’s longevity.

    Hi there!

    Let me explain a bit about Overwolf: it's a platform designed to help developers create applications that enhance the gaming experience for various games. However, it's important to note that we don't develop apps for any specific game ourselves. Instead, we provide the tools and infrastructure for developers to create their own apps.

    If you're looking to have an app developed for a particular game, the best course of action would be to connect with a developer who can bring your idea to life. A great place to start is by joining the developer Discord server we have. There, you can find many talented developers who are familiar with Overwolf and might be interested in working on your project.
