So, I'm pretty new to using GINA. Until recently, I only played au naturale p99, using only the default UI and even extremely minimal macros. I just recently installed GINA and spent several hours setting up triggers for a ton of buff timers as well as warning popups, but then I came to detrimental effects.

What I want: duration countdown timers for debuffs (primarily dots, mezzes, and fixed duration debuffs)

The immediate two options that come to mind for tracking debuffs/dots would be:

1) log message when the debuff is applied to a target (can't distinguish between mine and others debuffs)

2) use the start casting message and modify the duration to include the cast time of the spell.

I'm leaning toward option 2, but wondered if there was a better way to show time remaining for detrimental effects. I'm a total GINA noob, so I'm sure there is a ton of stuff that vets know about that I don't.

Somebody school me plz
