Combat Metrics is a free addon for The Elder Scrolls Online that records and analyzes combat logs. It measures damage per second, breaks down skill contributions, and can identify who caused incoming damage. It also analyzes healing received and cast, healing per second, buffs and debuffs, and magicka or stamina use and regeneration. Players can filter combat logs to investigate particular issues. A light mode shows current-fight DPS and HPS while using minimal resources. The CombatMetricsFightData module saves combat data separately from settings, but it must be enabled in the game's addon manager. Required libraries are LibAddonMenu, LibCustomMenu, LibCombat, and LibDataEncode; LibDebugLogger is optional, and required libraries must be downloaded separately. The addon can export builds to the ESO-Hub build editor, though older fight exports may omit role, passives, and attribute points, and alternative skill bars are not supported yet. Its README describes the project as still in beta. The maker also notes that many heavy fights in sequence can reach the Lua memory limit.
Who it is for
Combat Metrics suits ESO players who want combat-log breakdowns for damage, healing, resources, and buffs. Players who use its stored fight data or build exports should account for the stated setup and export limitations.
