The great thing about NeedToKnow that I liked is the way you specifically show ONLY the things you Need To Know. A lot of class timers have a lot of extra information that is more cluttered than I'd like it to be. Thanks to NeedToKnow, I'm managing my kittie dps and putting out numbers that are actually close to RAWR's theoretical highs in my gear.

The set-up-yourself part also forces you to know the intricacies of your class.
For example, in order to put out top dps as kittie, I have a split second to decide what abilities I want to use.

I need to know
1) How much time left on Savage Roar
2) How much time left on Rip
3) How much time left on Rake
4) How much time left on Mangle (Cat), Mangle (Bear), or Trauma
5) How much time left on proc internal cooldowns
6) What procs are currently active for how long
7) Do I have Hysteria

Thanks to a mix of PowerAura and NeedToKnow, I can keep track of this relatively easily to make split second decisions on when to do what.
