Hello, I'm curious if it's possible at all to somehow count amount of casts. For example, being vengeance demon hunter tank when casting immolation aura amount of soul fragments I get when it hits the enemies is random. I want to figure out is it possible to take this information from combat log somehow and use it.

yes, but what has this to do with it:
amount of soul fragments I get when it hits the enemies is random
?

From what I found game show you in combat log how many soul fragments you will get after cast. When casting aura in pack of 5 dummies first logs state "your immolate aura hit..." 5 times, and then following logs state "you cast soul fragment" and amount of sentences of "you cast soul fragment" is different every time due to random nature of talent that generates soul fragments. I want to track how many soul fragments I get after cast because there is a small delay between casting and actually getting soul fragments that you can use, and this information may alter what I will press afterwards.

You can use this Aura, https://wago.io/CLEU-IN-ETRACE (works fine in all game versions, not just retail), to add the detailed info into the Etrace tool.
