Zaldinar: I didn't get a mod to track ignites, although I'm always open for it. The major issue I have is that, while I know programming, I don't know LUA. But I could definately make use of it.

Raistlin: Yes I pointed this out many times before in the other mage threads. Its got to do with debuffs being delayed. It will cause your ashtongue procs to not affect your next cast, as well as possibly end up costing you lost ignites.

I learned LUA putzing around with addons, the biggest issue is nobody in the WoW addon community knows anything about commenting their bloody code.

I've got work for the next few days, once I get some off time I'll finish polishing the Ignite Tracker and post it up here. Even without a direct method for parsing it built yet the data collection can still be useful. Plus, having a damage meter for ignite is fun, its amazing how much you lose to targets dying before their ignite finishes.

I have some recent wws data taken during M'uru attempts that clearly shows a rolling ignite bug. I'm hoping someone will find this interesting/useful to some degree.

first, the wws: Wow Web Stats

notes: 263 haste

I was suprised at how high the ignite got, and how much overall damage it gave me. How hard is it to consistantly use this technique to gain dps?
