If my buffing macro ever got screwed up by not having a pack available, etc, I would finish the buffs out, then click through all the buff packs on my toolbar to make sure I got all the stats.
With the re-buff it makes it hard to do that as then you just end up re-buffing for the same amount (Which I love by the way, for resetting the time on my own buffs for guildies before I have to log). So now I have to ask if I got them all.
I am thinking that it would be nice to have the /diag maybe let us know which stats are enhanced...

What I do in the interim is set a chat color filter for the sentence "you enhance" and it stands out. Then I can just scroll up the window quickly and see if I missed any.

Can't remember exactly how, but it's in the Options (Ctrl-O) window. Pretty easy to figure out - basically you give a word or phrase you want highlighted, pick a colour, and add it to a wee 'dictionary' of things you highlight.

I've had that happen to me on a few occasions Kama-Kuro, and yeah it does suck when you refresh the same stat and can't remember who got what hehe. Never used that macro thing the above posters stated, i just tend to watch the uses on my packs because each stat has the same use amount in the set. But then again there is the occasional moment when you look away and start clicking the mouse

In options there is a "chat color" tab. On that window there is a section where you can type in the word you want colorized, and allow you to pick the color.
I use it to highlight my toon's name and common variations since when I am around starports it is sometimes hard to see with all the spam.
What you might do to make it even easier is set up a chat tab (right click on one of the chat tabs and pick to add a new tab, then right click on that and modify) to just track system messages (move it from the left box to the right box with the little right arrow chevrons when you have selected "modify tab"). but put no other types in it. This will allow you to go in and see system message stuff specifically, and if you have the "you enhanced" highlighted as well you can see them really easily.
I use the chat tab system to have a tab for system messages, instant messages (/tells), combat, spatial, guild and group. Some have more than one type (I have /tells showing in all tabs), but usually I dont care how much damage I am hitting for, so I ignore the combat tab... etc etc..
it really works well to narrow down what you are doing specifically.

Although I had created the "buff" chat tab long ago I had no idea that you could set colors. Sweet.
This is great. Thanks for the post.
This will be great not only docs but TK's when they start to loose power boost, etc.
