Thx to @kafeijao for this Addon. I have fixed the addon for the german and english client.

Light Attack Helper is a tool that helps you track your light attacks, it does this by incrementing a counter each time you actually hit a light attack.

This addon depends on the following libraries:
LibAddonMenu-2.0
LibChatMessage

When you start to do light attack weaving normally you either do it too fast or too slow, the ideal is doing as fast as possible but still having the light attacks to register, this is where this addon comes in handy, to help you finding the sweet spot.

Since these days the light attacks are the most damaging ability, one of the best ways to improve dps is actually to perform better your light attack weaving. Light attack weaving is always using a light attack in between your skill abilities, this paired with animation canceling of the light attacks makes your damage spike, you can check on youtube for videos about Elder Scrolls Online animation canceling for further information.

The la/s is the light attacks per second from a fight. So if you want to push yourself try to increase this number as much as possible in your fights. I am tracking the light attacking information from the server, so the times will be influenced by your latency(ping), and the latency(ping) is not very constant so you might find a bit of floating values.

You can use /laprintfull to see the statistics from the parse, for example the max and min values to see if your parse was falwless, for example if you get a minimum lower than 800ms probably it means that you did 2 light attacks without a skill in between, and if the maximum is higher than 1800 probably means that you used two skills without a light attack in between (This of course depends on the skills used, as channeled skills will have a much longer light attack time in between).

Commands:
/laprint - Prints the last combat's light attack / s ratio.
/laprintfull - Prints the last combat's full statisctics.
/lapost - Posts to the chat the last combat's light attack / s ratio (send to people).
/lapostfull - Posts to the chat the last combat's full statisctics (send to people)
/lareset - Resets the light attack counter to 0.


Notes:
1. The counter for ranged attacks will increment as soon as you shoot the light attack (if it knows it will hit) instead of when it actually hits, if it was on actual hit it would count the light attack after you barswap (if you do bar swap animation cancel) which feels a bit weird if you have the option to reset on barswap.

Thanks @wambo for implementing LibChatMessage and making the libraries external.
