I used the current bartender, and I couldn't find the Possess Bar option. The "stance bar" sub-tab is greyed out though and I can't activate it.


EDIT : Found it under each individual bar options. May delete.

Go to the Bartender options and highlight Bar 1.
There should be 4 tabs: [General Settings], [Visibility], [State Configuration], [Positioning]

Under [Visibility], make sure "Hide when Possessing" is -not- checked.
Under [State Configuration], make sure "Possess Bar" and "Action Bar Paging" are checked.

Don't think Action Bar paging is required (I have it turned off), a quick way of seeing if it works is use Eye of the Beast. You possess your pet and if all is well you should see his abilities on your main action bar.

Looking for an addon that switches aspects automatically. Viper while not in combat, and dragonhawk while in combat. Anything out there that resembles this, or something close to it with a reminder? I'm notorious for not switching in a timely manner... =/ Thanks..

Add-ons can't switch aspects for you. They can remind you to do it, however. Another example is Mongoose.

You don't need to change tracking. If you've got track beasts on and you're attacking a humanoid, you still get the x% bonus if you're spec'd into imp tracking. Ergo, it's a pointless addon and not helpful.

Anyone have any suggestions in configuring TimeToOOM? I've tried tweaking mine on a target dummy and its still about 15 seconds off- that is it says I will run out of mana 15 seconds before I actually do.

A week ago i found Damaging on Curse. I like the idea, but some features are missing - support for Tricks of the Trade or a option to see the damage modifier from the last application of the sting (like Xqerpent did with AP) next to the current value.

The only usefullness of this addon is for situations where a foregetfull person ( i've done it, and i'm sure other's have too) may have soemthing like Find Fish on, and then forget to manually switch back when it's time to enter a raid.

Alright so now I do have the code in place to calculate min and max damage for every shot instead of just the average and compare it to for whatever it actually hit the target. From there I can check if the damage is either as expected or deviates from the expected amount. If the latter is the case it calculates the percentage by which the shot was off.

This is where my problems start. In a perfect environment with a bow where min=max damage I´m catching deviations pretty good, however if I´m using my normal bow it´s rather difficult to pinpoint the exact amount of the deviation because I don´t know what to compare it to. Say my Explosive Shot just hit for 3,6k even though it should hit for 3,4k-3,5k. Now the real deviation can be somewhere between ~2,857% and ~5,882%. Which one do I pick? I guess it´s propably the best to take the average there too even though it might be slightly more likely for hits already bordering the top or bottom of the damage range to deviate from the expected ones which may skew the results.

Another thing is - right now I´m not adjusting every shot if it deviated from the expected value. Unfortunatly it often happens that FS still calculates one shot with or without a certain buff if the player just gained or lost it (happens sometimes with procs) and gets it right again for the next one. So instead I´m waiting for 5 consecutive deviations (or 15-25 ticks in case of DoTs) before actually using the average deviation as auto adjustment to that shot. This delayed adjustment leads to the problem that the more frequently used ones that get adjusted faster and the less frequently used ones running danger of not beeing proposed anymore at all. Consider the following scenario: at the Blood Queen you´ve used Steady Shot 5 times after beeing bitten and FS calculates ~100% deviation. Now it´s using that deviation for it´s future calculations of Steady Shot. If by that time you haven´t had your 5 times of Aimed deviations FS will propably priorize Steady over Aimed and never propose to shoot the latter one. I guess one way to handle this would be to just use one adjustment for physical and one for spell damage but FS won´t be able to adjust for buffs only affecting a single spell. I´m open for any other suggestion there as well.

If you use Quratz try the ProcsModule. Works great.

Speaking of misdirection addons, does anyone know of one like TrickOrTreat for rogues where it tells you how much threat was transferred after the MD is finished?

Hello, I've been using Power Auras for quite some time and love it. Now that I have my 2pt10 it is more than worthwhile to track the gear bonus procs. Power auras will do this simply but I'm looking for it to do more.

Does anyone know of a proc addon (or how to configure Power Auras) which can stack *different* buffs. For instance, I'd like one icon to appear when my 2pt10 gear bonus procs say in Red, but if Culling the Herd (CtH) or Arcane Empowerment (AE) are up for it to be yellow and if both CtH & AE are up for it to be green.

example:

AE or CotH are up but 2pt10 is not then I don't want any notification esp b/c they're up often in a raid c. 75%.

2pt10 procs: Red Skull
2pt10 + (CtH OR AE): Skull turns yellow
2pt10 + CtH + AE: Skull turns Green


Can Power Auras be configured to do such a thing? If not, is there an addon available which can?

Thanks.

EDIT: Replaced "Culling of the Herd" with "Culling the Herd"

You can use POWA to track multiple buffs, just type in the name and the different spell IDs you want to track. You can get the spell IDs from wowhead.com by searching for the spell. And then you can configure color to your liking.

You can also link multiple auras together to make a more complicated condition than a single aura can have. There's a brief overview near the bottom of Power Auras Classic : WoWInterface Downloads : Buff/Debuff/Spell Mods (and I think an article in the TT here, although I can't seem to find it), but the basic idea is:

- make an aura for your first condition (e.g. 2pcT10 has procced)
- disable this aura, but mouseover it to find out what number the mod assigned it
- make an aura for your second condition (e.g. CotH procced)
- enter the number for that first aura in the box in the top right for your second aura.

Now your second aura will only display when the conditions for both auras are satisfied.

It's a little clumsy, but I believe you can use it to nest quite a few conditions together.

Thanks for the Wiki. I had to play with power auras but could eventually get all 3 to stack properly using only 4 auras (none of which needed to be disabled). Here's how I did it:

Aura 1: Exploit Weakness as trigger buff (nothing in ID slot) as Colour 1 (or image 1 etc.)
Aura 2: Arcane Empowerment as trigger buff (with 1 (or the appropriate ID) in ID slot) as Colour 2
Aura 3: Culling the Herd as trigger buff (with 1 (or the appropriate ID) in ID slot) as Colour 2
Aura 4: Exploit Weakness as trigger buff (with 2/3 (or appropriate IDs separated by a /) in ID slot) as Colour 3

This will make sure that Empowered and Culling only go off if exploit is up and allows you to monitor the +dmg debuffs in stacking order Exploit; Exploit +1; and Exploit +2.

Making Empower and Culling as the triggers (vs. Exploit) allows for fewer auras to be created (and subsequently disabled).

Hope someone else finds this useful.

Edit: You wouldn't know English was my first language. I'm a terrible writer.
Edit 2: Oops "Arcane Empowerment" not "Empowered Weakness" which as a term is rather interesting. Ty to the post below for pointing it out

I think Aura 2 should say Arcane Empowerment, not Empowered Weakness, yes? Maybe something got lost in translation there!

I really like the idea of playing around with Power auras to stack buffs - one thing I don't get: what is this Arcane Empowerment? Is it some term Bragaul coined up since when I wowheaded it all it gave me was some Mage spell.

Also, would Bragaul be so kind to link the power aura code so we can use them in our settings? Thanks.

Hi Eolas,

You're correct Arcane Empowerment is a mage spell. Arcane Empowerment is a mage's version of our BM tree talent Ferocious Inspiration. That is, it increases the damage of the raid by 3%. As a MM hunter, chimera shot refreshes serpent sting at the original +%dmg modifier serpent sting was cast at. You want to recast serpent sting when you get your 2pT10 +15%dmg bonus for instance and chimera shot will keep that modifier for the entire fight as long as you don't let it drop off.

Since the Arcane Empowerment and Culling the herd are only 3% each, it may not be worth it to waste a global cooldown to recast serpent sting at these levels. However, these buffs have significant uptime and are often accompanied by our 2pT10 gear bonus proc. This is where we do want to recast serpent sting. The 2pT10 proc lasts lasts for 10s. I have power auras set up (with help from the EJ community) to let me know if I'm recasting it at +15%, +18%, or +21% dmg increase.

As far as code, I'm not sure how to do that. I'll gladly link it up if someone will show me how to do so.

Thanks for the clarification. If you would like to post your power aura codes you need to go to the poweraura in question click on Export and copy the code it will give.
