[BETA] PQRotation - an automated ability priority queue.

[kujaa1]

the new crystaltech destro warlock rotation, casts soulfire once, then the next spell in the priority, usually immolate or chaosbolt, then starts casting soulfire again for no reason

local hasSoulburn = UnitBuffID("player", 74434)
local empoweredImp = UnitBuffID("player", 47221)
local isfbuff, _, _, _, _, _, isfbuffExpire = UnitBuffID("player", 18120)

if isfbuff == nil then
return true
else
isfbuffExpire = isfbuffExpire - GetTime()
if isfbuffExpire < 3 then
return true
end
end

if hasSoulburn ~= nil then
return true
end

if empoweredImp ~= nil then
return true
end


any clues why it would do that?

[crystal_tech]

hey Crystaltech i like ur SV profiles for hunter its really good BUT can u do something about the arcane shot?? when the LnL proc and ur focus is above 70 it will eat LnL proc.

hmm i'll look into it.

edit: found the problem. I was using the wrong spell id.

if you go to SV: Arcane Shot change this line

local lnlBuff = UnitBuffID("player", 56343)

to this

local lnlBuff = UnitBuffID("player", 56453)

side note: I changed some things around with mutlishot. it will not cast hunters mark/serpent sing while holding control.

After getting some inspiration from the post made by fmagretto here: http://www.ownedcore.com/forums/worl...ml#post2159020 ([BETA] PQRotation - an automated ability priority queue.)

I decided to start playing around with the concept of hooking into the combatlog to attach an event listener to grab key entries relevant to a rotation. Once I finally managed to create a custom frame element and get it implemented into the game I started to get the first feedback from wow that everything was working. After some filtering and testing the first thing I thought of doing was to create a smarter, faster and more efficient decurse script that would no longer rely on the current repeated looping of the raid group.

And that is what I'm releasing here for the current profile authors to start playing with. In this first preview I've managed to hook an event listener into the combat log to grab debuffs being applied to the current raid or party members aswell as the player. With this method we can instantly decurse a spell in the allowed list without the need to repeatedly cycle through the raid group, checking their debuffs.

Below are the two XML files, to get started you'll need to change a few things:

• The class the rotation is designed for (currently Druid)
• The list of spells you'd like to decurse
• And the spell IDs of your decurse spell

The eventlisener function can easily be scaled to add more events and I can't wait to see some of the ideas and possibilites that you guys come up with for this.

Now it's most definately not perfect, given that multiple debuffs can be applied at once, the GCD means we can't remove them as and when they happen and this is the first thing I intent to overcome by queing events and putting them into a stack system. When a new event is fired it will be put into the end of the current stack, which is moved through one by one and items are removed as and when they are dispelled in this case, moving the next item to the top to be dealt with. A set of functions will be created to easily manage these and enable a very easy way to move throguh, reorder and remove items from the stack.

I'd love to hear your thoughts on the concept as well as any proposed changes

that's pretty interesting, i love this experimental stuff. does that imply you could respond to instant spell casts, for example in pvp deathing polys, cloaking coils etc? also in pve you could automate reactive abilities like feint on aoe casts etc.

Absolutely, anything (in this example) that goes into the combat log, you can access and react to instantly - with the decursing example the reaction time is extremely fast and there's no reason it can't be applied to anything you require.

[crystal_tech]

ok did lots of work to the lock profiles.

merged the aoe into the single target (aff/demo specs, for destro hit pause and cast rain of fire yourself) - yay.
updated demo rotations based on ej forums; instead of the inc filler vs sb filler its now single target spec and multi-dot spec.
fixed the soul fire casting bug for destro.

if theres any more issues let me know.

oh backup your old profiles just in case.

[marcmk2]

Thanks Ralphiuss so much for that SVN very very very helpful.

[lostinthewoodslol]

hi guys, is there a way to make an ingame macro that if i press/click it it will do eg; Alt+X

if one of you pro's could help me i would appreciate it so much. thanks in advance.

p.s. reason for it, i have a physical disability making it very hard to use my keyboard. though clicking on the screen is absolute best i can do xD

[Ralphiuss]

SVN updated with crystal_tech changes to hunter profile for beast master and Survival Also updated his Warlock profiles.

hey man what I do for alt+x and alt+z is I have them assigned to my 2 side mouse buttons.. The mouse i use is the microsoft sidewinder and it comes with software in which you can assign custom key combos

[Meatglue]

Im working on a Frost DK PvP rotation, testing and comment from experienced pvp players are welcome.

Hold LEFT SHIFT use Death Grip
Hold LEFT ALT ll pause the rotation. If you make a keybind using ALT by example bind Icebound Fortitude to ALT+Q will be possible to cast it.

There is a updated warrior profile few pages ago

Has anyone tested this in arena yet? I have an undergeared 85 DK but seems to work good in bgs.

[vorn10]

Works fine for me, are you enabling use out of combat?

Diesall, any chance that you could write a prospecting version of this?

Didnt find anything about prospecting so did something very simple:
1. Create new profile (fe prospect) and rotation (fe ore) for ur class with JC
2. Create ability in that profile "prospect",
set ID spell "0",
in Actions window add:

/cast Prospecting
/use Pyrite Ore
/use Elementium Ore
/use Obsidium Ore

3. In "TEST" window add

if PQR_IsMoving(1) == false and UnitBuffID("player", 13165) == nil then
	return true
end

4. Go to rotation editor, add that skil, set "require combat = false" in "show settings"
5. Ur ores need to be in stacks of 5,10,15,20 or it will stop if find in ur bags 3 ores, so that 3 put at end of ur bag.

[sweeteva]

Does anyone have an Arms Pve Profil? :-/

[cokx]

If anyone is interested, I made an updated Warrior Arms PVP, Arms PVE, Fury, Prot and Hunter MM PVP, SV PVE rotation.

[wayne...]

any one got one for dis or shadow pvp priest

[Ralphiuss]

@Cokx

Where are your profiles? Would you like me to host them on my SVN?

@Sweeteva

There is a Arms PVE profile within my SVN.

@Wayne...

There is a shadow PVP profile within my SVN. I believe it's pretty old and not sure how great it is. As well there is a Disc profile there too, I''ve only used it for 5 mans it does OK. I believe it needs more logic about tanking due to the fact it trys to cast other spells before healing the tank.
