Is there an addon that will warn me (via whisper or some other chat channel, etc) when one of my toons is reported AFK in a BG? As I understand it, anyone reported AFK gets some sort of "Inactive" debuff, so it should be a simple matter for an addon (Jamba??) to warn another toon.
It's frustrating to not notice one toon being reported afk and to have them vanish while running across a large BG or while defending a tower, flag, etc.
Power Auras can watch other characters of your party/raid's buffs/debuffs (from your main). I successfully got
it to work watching Blessing of Kings on the rest of my team and I'll bet you can set this up to show these AFK
debuffs on your active character and then you can even copy & paste those auras to the rest of your team in
case you're leading from a different character at a particular time.
Thx.
I was actually fiddling around with Jamba's proc piece and added the "Idle" and "Inactive" entries from Wowhead's spellIDs to see if that works. If it doesn't, I'll try Power Auras.
Jamba has an attempt to warn about an Inactive debuff. You can find in it Jamba-Toon under warnings. I don't PVP, so I have never tested it. However some have said it does not work. You could try. I might have the name of the buff to check for wrong, but you could open up the Jamba Toon locale and change the line where it says L["Inactive"] = true to L["Inactive"] = "the proper name of the buff".
Jamba-Proc shouldn't be able to detect buffs; so you Proc idea won't work, although if it does work, I'd like to know.
From what it looks like in Wowhead, there are 2 Idle debuffs and 2 Inactive debuffs. It looks like the Idle debuff will proc the Inactive debuff after a minute.
