healing engine

[boxo]

I know that some of this information, used to be available, but maybe not anymore? I was wondering if there was anywhere where the healing engine was explained for PE, namely the functions/conditions that are available.

Seeing as how both enhance and ele are shit right now, thought I might take a stab at putting together a resto profile.

The only engine we have ever had has been jury rigged from the get-go... I will see about trying to get a better one up, but for the meantime check out the conditions.lua

.lowest, .tank are going to be your main things. You can raid check with lowest.health(6,80) with i1 being playerCount and i2 being playerHealth

e.g.

{ "Circle of Healing", "lowest.health(8,60)" },

This is entirely off the top of my head, so the real working may be different. I know for a fact that the Restoration Shaman has the examples inside it, however. I built that one a while back as a proof of concept.

Continuing to work on this, i have a rotation that runs through heroics alright. I have a few questions which I hope someone could answer for me to work on this.

At the moment, The only real targets that seem to be useful from a healing context is "tank" and "lowest". With that in mind...

- is there a "second lowest"? Or just lowest? The reason I ask is theoretically you want to have riptide on as many players as possible, and if you only cast on tank and on lowest, it may stall out at 2, or 1 if the tank is the lowest.

- How is "tank" determined? Is it through raid classifications? Most health? Who has threat?

- Is there a way to compare two conditions? Something like "tank.health" - "lowest.health" > 10. Basically so a profile could make the decision that healing the tank is more important even though there is another player technically lower.

- and the last one was unitsaroundunits. Does it only currently function with hostile units?

This is just kinda becoming stream of consciousness for me now, but something that may be useful is a "lowest that fits a condition". For example, chain heal on the lowest player who has riptide buff, or the lowest player in range, etc.

Just a thought

[ImogenOC]

lowest.buff(Riptide)
:P

[firepong]

You can always say screw that as well and go with player.buff (Riptide). Believe this should still work since player cycles through the whole group, unless this has changed. Try it and see with player set as cast target.

[boxo]

wait, so your saying i can set my target as lowest.buff(riptide)? So like

{ "Chain Heal", { "Conditions" }, "lowest.buff(riptide)" },

?

That's my mind blowing right now

[knightwish]

Actually it is like

{ "Chain Heal", { "lowest.buff(riptide)" }, "lowest" },

[boxo]

But that still casts on the player with the lowest health, right? From what I understand,

{ "Chain Heal", { "lowest.buff(riptide)" }, "lowest" },

would check to see whether or not the player with the lowest health had the riptide buff, and if so, cast chain heal on that player.

What I want is to find the lowest player that has the riptide buff, and then cast chain heal on them.

Another example would be riptide, I want to cast riptide on the player with the lowest health that doesn't already have riptide.
