The Rogue UI: Your Silent Partner - Page 15

Tehnoob1 · 07/20/09, 8:58 AM

In regard to tricks, i use Satrina Buff Frames and it shows my tricks as well as the tricks I recieve from other rogues. I have tricks filtered to a convenient frame directly over my hp/energy bar so that its easily viewable along with other things like greatness, heroism, hysteria etc.

I have a question about the DP Ticktimer thats in this thread as well. It works great and I love it, however I cant get it to stay locked in the same position after I relog. Ive tried running wow in admin, reloading ui, locking and unlocking the addon repeatedly, and just cant get it to stay =(

If anyone can give me an idea that would be fantastic as it resets right in my outgoing dmg and becomes very hard to see lol.

Is it possible to create a macro that unleashes Cold Blood Envenom with one button press when holding shift, otherwise just doing Envenom.

/cast [mod:shift] Cold Blood, Envenom; Envenom

does not seem to work. Is there a way to make it work or do I have to use a seperated

/cast Cold Blood
/cast Envenom Macro

on another action bar slot

Each /cast or /use has to have its own line, and only one of the lines can invoke the GCD.

/cast [mod:shift]Cold Blood
/cast Envenom

Should work as long as Cold Blood is off the GCD. I have not tested this in game.

I can confirm: Cold Blood is off the GCD.

Somebody know an AddOn which disables the Spam msgs "You have no Target" "You have not Enought Energy" "Out of range" etc and works with 3.2?

Rogue spam Reborn doens't work with 3.2 anymore

pError also does the trick. But you have to configure it manually.

That macro I believe will require 2 button presses 1 with shift held to activate Cold Blood then again to cast Mutilate without the shift key held and also the cast abilities don't have to be on separate lines. Try using

/cast [mod:shift] Cold Blood; [mod:shift] Mutilate; [nomod] Mutilate

It only requires you to hit it one time either with or without shift depending on if you want to use CB or not. Also if your CB is on cooldown it will just cast Mut

I use the following

/cast [target=focus, exists, noharm] tricks of the trade; [target=focus, exists, harm, nostealth] blind; [nostealth, harm] blind; [target=focus, exists, harm, stealth] sap; [stealth, harm] sap

It's all typed in one line and have no issue with it working as intended

This is my first post. I have played WoW off and on for about 2 years. I am back to playing my Rogue. I have been strictly Combat for since WotLK release. I have never used any addons other than a quest tracker, coordinates, Atlas Loot and Omen.

I recently switched to Mutilate Build and have finally noticed the need for addons to track the timers and cooldowns of a Rogues' most important abilities. I have read this forum a couple times since it has been added to Elitist Jerks. I see so many different opinions of what a Rogue needs to be more efficient in pve. I am such a noob at addons that I am still using the default UI set up.

For bars/timers, I've seen suggested:

Assasin Timer, Class Timer, Rogue Power Bars, Rogue Focus Classic, Elkano Buff Bars, and Ice Hud.

I really only care about tracking my SnD, HfB, Rupture, and Deadly Poisons, but realize that there are some other important thinks to keep track of as well. Is there one that is best for a rogue application?

For UI, I've seen suggested:

ag_unitframes, x-perl, and pitbull (is there one that is better than another for pure functionality?)

I've seen a few other things suggested. (Parrot & Combo Point Redux)

I am not asking for a hand-out, just for someone to point me in the right direction. I just want to do the best I can to help not only me be a better player, but also help my guild and groups as much as I can.

Thanks for any help in advance.

ShadowEric · 08/06/09, 4:59 PM

I suggest you try the addons suggested and find the ones that fit you best. I'll say one thing though, don't use X-Perl. It's not working well in 3.2 and there are long-standing bugs that the author has never fixed. It's kept alive, but that's about it, as far as I can see.

works like a charm

I thought so, too. That's why I did not come up with that idea but it works just the way I wanted it so be (which means 1 button press is enough). Unfortunately my post in which I confirmed that it does work got deleted.

edit:

/cast !Cold Blood
/cast Envenom/Mutilate

Where do I control here when to cast Cold Blood? I don't want to use it any time it is up. I want to be able to time it to maximize it's effect during trinket procs and/or TotT.

You can put the code to turn that stuff off into the macro you use for your attacks. For example:

#showtooltip Sinister Strike
/script UIErrorsFrame:Hide()
/console Sound_EnableSFX 0
/startattack
/cast Sinister Strike
/script UIErrorsFrame:Clear()
/script UIErrorsFrame:Show()
/console Sound_EnableSFX 1

This will cause you to use Sinister Strike (and start attacking, if you don't have energy enough to use Sinister Strike), and will turn off all the UI and audio error warnings. I have a macro like this for all my spammed abilities. = )

Get the newest version of LibBars-1.0 from wowace and copy it to the TickTimer Libs folder. If you have other addons that use LibBars-1.0 you may also need to do the same for them as it will use the first version that loads.

That's incorrect. Provided libraries are made properly (and most are, due to higher quality requirements for libs than addons), they are self-upgradable and only the latest will be used, not necessarily the first loaded.

EDIT: And after checking, it is indeed self-upgradable.

I use the same macro, it works like a charm. And the startattack is very usefull when switching to new targets.

Only issue i had was when those error messages could have been useful (for instance, when i've got positional bugs with the heart of XT-02 , i'd rather to be informed

)

Yup, that's why the /startattack is in the macro. Also, it doesn't take long to realize something is wrong when numbers aren't popping up in the middle of the screen the way they should be when you are beating the shit out of your target. = P

Do any SnD/Rupture timers work currently? I did the "fix" for RoguePowerBars but it still chops/lags any time I target/detarget a mob. I see IceHUD has been updated but I just want timers not a HUD.

ClassTimer works fine; not sure what changed that would have prompted a breaking of ability timers.

rENaitre · 08/10/09, 8:22 AM

RoguePowerbars has been fan updated and works great just as it used to. While it was down I tried out Event horizon and Elkano's Buff Bars. Elk was the better of the two once I whitelisted what I wanted to track, but I missed the coloring of RPB.

..one thing i still can't get to work though is tracking Sunder Armor for RPB. lil help?

My UI made for Raiding with Rogue <3 can be found at wowinterface.. Renaitre Raid UI

turbare · 08/10/09, 9:23 AM

I see that you have an addon telling the bonus given by ToT. I'm curious as to what that is, since I'd like to check the damage bonus i get during an XT run for example.

Chenz · 08/10/09, 10:00 AM

Based on what it says in his chatlog, I'd say it' TrickOrTreat: WoW AddOns - TrickOrTreat - WowAce.com

I've been using Jasje UI [1680x1050] : WoWInterface Downloads : Generic Compilations
Jasje UI. great UI. the only addon I throw in extra is Event Horizon

Maybe someone can help with m Power Auras Problem. I want Power Auras to show my Cooldowns when usable. Now this works fine with Vanish and TotT but somehow Cold Blood is never shown as usable.

Settings are as followed:

"Action Usable", Use own Texture, Ignore Uppercase, Only if in combat and Only if in raid.

Does anyone get this working?
