It needs to be up before, it works like the old Savage Roar.

Has anyone had any luck with working DoT timer-like mods that will track your current debuffs? My mods have turned completely wonky lately, with NeedToKnow only showing the timer of the longest debuff of that name, rather than only just mine (yes, I have the option to only track my debuffs set).

It's a nightmare in my new guild, which now has two other regular feral druids running alongside myself.

Elkano's Buffbars is still working for me, even though it has not been updated in a while. Be aware, it does takes a bit of effort to get it working right. Expect to spend an hour or two customizing. It will filter self-only buffs. Here is a post on Toskk's site explaining how to set it up.

Rogue Power Bars is still working just fine, although I'm a bit leery since it appears to have been abandoned. For now I'd definitely recommend it though.

For TellMeWhen, changing the following lines inside the "TellMeWhen_Icon_BuffCheck()" function (line 470 in TellMeWhen.lua) from

-- local buffName, rank, iconTexture, count, debuffType, duration, expirationTime, isMine, isStealable;
local buffName, _, iconTexture, count, _, duration, expirationTime, isMine = UnitAura(icon.unit, icon.name, nil, iicon.buffOrDebuff);

into

-- local buffName, rank, iconTexture, count, debuffType, duration, expirationTime, caster, isStealable;
local buffName, _, iconTexture, count, _, duration, expirationTime, caster = UnitAura(icon.unit, icon.name, nil, icon.buffOrDebuff);

local my_units = {
	player = true,
	pet = true,
	vehicle = true,
};
local isMine = my_units[caster];

should do the trick; the UnitAura() API-function was changed to support pets and vehicles better - after this change, you can use TellMeWhen for e.g. tracking your debuffs on Malygos, or tracking your pet's stun.

Badkitty was just updated and seems to be working - the only issue I have seen so far with the new version is handling of OOC procs which can be disabled in the BK settings.

Power auras classic works well. Again it takes some time to learn / setup / fool around with.

Edit: sp.

Is there a bug pertaining to glancing blows and a druid's weapon skill level? If I go to the level 80 training dummy and autoattack, I will do a huge amount of glancing blows. I cannot make sense of this.

Do you think the "idol of worship" or the "Idol of the Ravenous Beast" is now better for total dmg during a long fight ?

Rainman5419 · 04/16/09, 8:54 AM

Cinox, for now Idol of Worship will be better until certain ArP thresholds. That threshold depends on your gear and raid debuffs so use a tool like Toskk's Calculator to find out when you should swap idols.

New weapon dropped from Yogg-Saron, might be contender for best in slot.

I really don't see that as being better than Lotrafen, in fact I'd say it's significantly worse than other options to the point where I wouldn't take it over Journey's End. Let a Ret Pally have it.

Hmm... taking a second look, this might depend on preference for hit rating. I know simulators show capping hit/exp is not required, but I still prefer getting at least close to it. Even so, it is still behind... my math must have been off earlier. I'm still hoping for a 239 weapon.

Boevis · 04/16/09, 6:21 PM

Good point, is that from Yogg-Saron 10 man? 232 is the same ilevel as Vezax in 25 man.

On the topic of addons, has anyone been able to develop something to count Shreds per Rip?

It's YS 25 on easy mode.
