So basically you want to analyse cycles ?

Sounds like a lot CPU used there.

I was thinking about a new feature to add, but dunno if it's trivial or quite hard to do.

While in a raid I never reset Recount. I'd like to keep all the data to have a good sumary of the night (who was not so helpful for the all night ?). But I also love to have data for every boss encounter.

Basically after each fight against a boss, I choose "Last fight" for data to be displayed, and looking for informations that interessed me. But unfortunnately, these information are only available if we do not start a new fight on trash mob.

My request is : is it possible to save data for a Fight ? Insane fonctionnality will be to do it automatically for every boss down, using BigWigs event.

I noticed the same on Tidewalker.
After a wipe, I'd like to see the reports for the last fight (the wipe). Yet sometimes it happens that a rezzer pulls aggro from Tidewalker while trying to revive a person lying too near. The only one who dies is him, but the last fight's data vanishes nevertheless.

I apologize if this has been asked in the 22 pages of posts but I read through the first few and found nothing.

1. The "Last Fight" feature doesn't work for me. It clears the damage delt as if I haven't fought anything. Switching it back to "overall data" brings it all back though. Any reason why this is happening?

2. Say I and someone else have recount running and we both clear before zoning into the instance. We fight through a few pulls and our data matches up. Then I clear my data, but he doesn't and we pull some more. How would syncing be handled in this situation? Would his recount tell my recount that he has done 500,000 damage despite the fact that I cleared my data, thus "deflating" my numbers?

I thought (And this is just my understanding), that syncing isn't _required_. I extended my combat log range to 200 yards... is that enough, or do I have to make my raid-mates switch to Recount to get proper results?

You do not have to sync. Extended combat log covers 97% of all encounters just fine.

In all honestly its probably 100%. I'm not in Hyjal or BT, but I did some of BT on the PTR and have seen the vids, and I know for a fact that no boss encounter in TK or SSC has a room larger than 100 yards in radius, and nothing I've seen from the sources above indicate that BT or Hyjal is any different.

My recap meters with no syncing have always matched people that are syncing with SWS or DmgMeters.

For someone to be outside the combat log range of 200 yards that would mean that you'd be standing at the center of the room and that person would be almost 3 times the distance required for healing (40 yards) away from you.

I can't think of a place where it wouldn't work so I conjured up the 3% standard deviation based on the supernatural importance of the number 3 in both religious and sorcerous contexts.

If recount starts tracking things like PoM and ES, syncing would make the heal numbers for healers more accurate. I dont think syncing for damage done is that beneficial though.

I've got a question there can be only 1 Earthshield and PoM on a player correct (I seem to recall thats true but want to make sure before I start too much into the code).

1. You might be using an old version that has Last Fight broken (few days old version but was in there for a day or so)
2. If your friend resets you won't even know he reset and you only get updated additional sync values (there is one potential slight issue that I need to address but its pretty minor the amount of error it can bring in after you reset (when you reset it resets the tables it compares numbers to which will result in you ignoring the first sync message till I have something in place to store those through a reset but it doesn't matter if you've been recording the numbers yourself)).

Not the hardest thing in the world but not the easiest either. I have something in mind.

I dont remember ever seeing 2 up so Im going to say only 1.

I would look at MendWatch to see how to track mends. Its a bit tricky due to the jumping around.

Right, new applications of Earthshield or PoM will overwrite the old one. You get one of these buffs at a time.

Actually, since 2.1 its became incredibly easy to track due to you can only get the time remaining left on buffs that you are considered the owner of and apparently you remain the owner of Prayer of Mending so you can always see the remaining time after it jumps I've been told. But yeah I might check out MendWatch as well to see what was being done before 2.1.

Again, the WAU "reinstall" function worked wonders and resolved the issue.

Heh, the issue was you hadn't restarted WoW so the new file "colors.lua" couldn't be loaded.

I've got in now Earth Shield, Lifebloom and Prayer of Mending tracking in. Only works for your heals and also currently doesn't check the jump of Prayer of Mending (will add that in shortly wanted to inspect MendWatch method of jumping before I implement what I've got in mind).

Just a small suggestion, as I simply love this addon.
Thoughts on adding the mob title to the "last" display.
So it would show something like:
Damage Done (Last) Mobname

Thanks.

That's not how the Last display works though. Its not based off a mob, its based on when you entered and left combat.

For a stats junkie like me, this is, by far, the best addon ever. I dont know how to praise it enough...


I do have one question (which might have been answered before, but when I searched for it nothing came up): sometimes, even though ive set it to merge pet with owner, the damage done window will still show them separately (even though it will still show in the player details as his pet). Is there a setting I need to change?

Isn't that typically tied to a mob name though too?

Actually, for it to move the fight data it has to detect some mob that was fought or taken damage from in some form.

Cryect I will try to ask again, since my question was sadly mislooked. About two weeks ago we had some major issues with Omen showing incorrect threat or not even showing it for various people in raid, due to Recount.

Recently I was told this was caused by Recount & Omen using same Threat lib. If one of them is using older version this can cause various problems like: invalid threat values or not showing several people on threat. So, if I am reading that correctly I am urged to check Threat-1.0 version in Lib dir of Omen & Recount everytime I update one of them and if they match ?

I would like to get some confirmation on that, because I really enjoy Recount as a mod. It is by far most advanced addon I have seen now and I'm raiding for 2 years now. It's a shame i have it disabled at the very moment due to compatibility problems with Omen.

Thanx in advance,
-Paper
