[BETA] PQRotation - an automated ability priority queue.

[jackus]

Change to DS:

local DS = GetShapeshiftForm()
local _, CD = GetSpellCooldown(23920)
local Disarm = UnitDebuffID("target", 676)
local Spell,_,_,_,_,_,_,_,_ = UnitCastingInfo("target")
local _, DisarmCD = GetSpellCooldown(676) 
local DisarmDebuffs = {31884, 59016, 18499, 2825, 32182, 2825, 32182, 51713, 51271, 33702, 20572, 33697, 99740, 1719, 46924, 12472 }

if DisarmCD == 0 then
  for i, v in ipairs(DisarmDebuffs) do
    if UnitBuffID("target", v) then
      if DS ~= 2 and Disarm == nil then
        return true
      end
    end
  end
end


if Spell == ("Arcane Blast") or Spell == ("Cyclone") or Spell == ("Mind Control") or Spell == ("Polymorph") or Spell == ("Lava Burst") or Spell == ("Entangling Roots") or Spell == ("Hex") then
if DS ~= 2 and CD == 0 then
RunMacroText("/equip Vicious Gladiator's Hacker")
RunMacroText("/equip Vicious Gladiator's Shield Wall")
return true
end
end

don't forget to edit this to you're own shield set weapons/shield

and

Disarm:

local _, DisarmCD = GetSpellCooldown(676) 
local DS = GetShapeshiftForm()
local DisarmDebuffs = {31884, 59016, 18499, 2825, 32182, 2825, 32182, 51713, 51271, 33702, 20572, 33697, 99740, 1719, 46924, 12472 }

if DisarmCD == 0 then
  for i, v in ipairs(DisarmDebuffs) do
    if UnitBuffID("target", v) then
      if DS == 2 then
        return true
      end
    end
  end
end

If I want it to spell reflect my focus target, can i just copy the

local Spell,_,_,_,_,_,_,_,_ = UnitCastingInfo("target")
local DS = GetShapeshiftForm()

if Spell == ("Arcane Blast") or Spell == ("Cyclone") or Spell == ("Mind Control") or Spell == ("Polymorph") or Spell == ("Lava Burst") or Spell == ("Entangling Roots") or Spell == ("Hex") then
if DS ==2 then
return true
end
end

and instead of target use focus?

@Yor HC, imo using PQR in that fight (when shadow up) is useless. This is 2 healer fight, so heal1 has gr1, heal2 has gr2. beacon on tank and use only divine light + WoG (for tank). Never gone above 3-4 stacks, they reset after 20-25 sec dont remember.
Why not using PQR? Cuz sometimes u both can heal the same target =BOOM.
I know PQR is for to build as good code as possible but imo that fight req decent profile.

if UnitName("boss1") == "YORWTFSMTH" and UnitGetIncomingHeals(t) == nil then return true end

Plus the code for checking stacks.

End of story (:

Why care about that debuff when that slime is always the priority to kill?

on HC you never kill the purple ooze .... on HC you get 4 oozes instead of 3 and top prio is green then yellow than black ... so the purple one almost hits everytime

[bu_ba_911]

@Valma I see what you did there, but I wrote it my way so that in 25 mans even if the target has 2 stacks already, if 3 healers are healing the target he will reach 5. In a real raid situation they would all be given their own groups i'm sure but here we cant do that easily.... i personally wouldn't let a program make decisions for me in Hard Mode content because of all the different things that can change at a moments notice.... so i try to code on the safe side when trying things out the first time..... i'm not saying ur code isn't better than mine.... just my 2 cents on my thought process and how i worked it out my way

still don't get how targethp = 100 cause issues tho >.< that seemed like it was a slam dunk obvious choice for a starting point.

yes but you'll need to change the variable name you use... use something like SpellFocus and make that change everywhere you are checking the focus's GetSpellInfo check

This was said 3 or 4 times already.What is the matter to post it again?Postcount?

@Buba

Ye,I checked your updates at googlecode.For what u are trying to do there is a bit more structured way(IMO again).For example:

-- constants
PQ_HolyLight = 635
PQ_DivineLight = ...
...
...
...
...

-- tables
PQ_Abilities = {
[PQ_HolyLight] = {check = true, blablabla whatever u want }
[PQ_DivineLight] = {...}
...
...
...
}

Later u can call them easilly everywhere and for logic u are going to add its simply if PQ_Abilities[ability].check == true then castthisshiAT.

lol i'm a jimmy rigger at heart i learn as i go.... my whole programming experience before this is 2 classes of Visual Basic .NET and i used most of my knowledge from playing around with it before to ace those classes

if things dont make sense in my code there's either a perfect reason for it, or because i don't know a better way of doing it haha..... however being the fast learner that i am, as soon as i see the power in something, i normally adapt it into my style

@Buba

Man,my mind is bleeding,but seems like I've found why AutoStopCasting doesn't work in most of raid situations and this will for sure lower overhealing issue.

After we've found a target to heal we store it in PQ_Custom target and then we are looping this: check for overheal,check lowest HP target.Looks simple,BUT this is where the magic is going:

our heal heals for 10%
party1 has 50
party2 has 55
party3 has 80

First iteration - PQR_CustomTarget = party1 PQR_CustomTargetHP = 50 we start to cast our heal

Second iteration - PQR_CustomTarget = party1 PQR_CustomTargetHP = 50 (All seems ok we don't need to stopcast) ++MAGIC++ After going in AutoTarget for second time we will got PQR_CustomTarget = party2 PQR_CustomTargetHP = 55 coz we are including incoming heals in calculation.

Third iteration - we are checking the wrong target so if anyone will heal our target to >90% we will still continue to cast getting overheal and loose mana. jajaja

What we need to fix this: add in every ability with casting time but HR

PQ_CurrentHealingTarget = PQR_CustomTarget

before return, add check in autotarget

if not UnitCastingInfo("player") then PQ_CurrentHealingTarget = nil end

edit autostopcasting's

if PQR_CustomTargetHP > 96 then

TO

if ( UnitHealth(PQ_CurrentHealingTarget) + UnitGetIncomingHeals(PQ_CurrentHealingTarget,"player")) > (UnitHealthMax(PQ_CurrentHealingTarget) + UnitGetIncomingHeals(PQ_CurrentHealingTarget,"player") / 2) then

I'm not criticizing you.I just give food for brains in really small amounts LOL

About making sense - it will make sense once you decide to go even more advanced in your profiles and from this point u will need to rewrite whole code using the way I posted before or it will lag the game to hell.As it is for now its all ok

[Lofty]

Some really fantastic ideas/code Valma +4 Rep to you.

Next week when i have some free time, i may start working on a profile again

[Starphall]

im playing my Dk atm...i saw somebody posted a Masterfrost dk profile...maybe its just 5am and im getting tired...but i just cant find it...anybody can link it ! plz ! thx alot !

[Familiar]

Is it safe to use? :O

So much to do now as a single mom, trying to cover everything!
I did have a chance to go through your profile earlier, Sheepmoon - Quite impressed by how it's working. Also made some changes to the Vampiric Touch and Devouring Plague spells based on your code.

Strangest thing though is that standstill on a dummy with my own self-buffs I'm able to pull between 23 and 29k DPS, all depending on how lucky I am with procs from Dragonwrath, Shadow Orbs and Shadowy Apparitions. Nedless to say, I don't have 4-set Tier 13 yet as Conqueror tokens just refuse to drop.

Still doing some extensive research when I have the time for it on the MS/MB spike rotation, but as far as I've read, it's only usable on some encounters like Hagara for example, where you don't have the benefit or time to start pre-dotting her up as she's immune to damage, leaving a MS/MB with AA/Fiend rotation a very nice boost during her +25% damage phase.

Though, creating logics for each induvidual boss is going to be very tricky and if not ligned right, it could potentially be a major DPS loss rather than going with a regular rotation. All though I'm fairly sure I could fit the MS/MB rotation into it's own rotation profile.

Just testing some as we speak for newly created Priests just to see if the profile at all works for low-level characters.
