Avery Ret Profile

[averykey]

when can we expect the leveling stuff to be implemented, Avery?

I will try to get it out today, I have to write a bit more, I actually missed a few spells so I need to write new logic.


After this update, I want to pick up another class. I will continue with ret/prot and maybe holy.
What class do you guys want?

[barandeniz]

if the ret arena/pvp is decent i would vote for holy arena/pvp =) im excited for ret pvp tho w8ing like 1 month or so.

@Avery
I saw your post on the main thread about inq.

this is exelpers code

local holyPower = UnitPower("player", 9)
local divinePurpose = PQR_UnitBuffID("player", 86172)
local inquisition, _, _, _, _, _, inquisitionEndTime = PQR_UnitBuffID("player", 84963)

if inquisition ~= nil then
    inquisitionEndTime = inquisitionEndTime - GetTime()
end

if inquisition == nil or inquisitionEndTime <= 2 then
    if holyPower >= 3 or divinePurpose ~= nil then
        return true
    end
end 

the ability with HaveBuff is Sheuron and he stop playing afaik.

I hope this points you in the right direction.

I hope this points you in the right direction.

This is my current code for inq and it works fine.

if UnitBuffID("player", 84963) == nil or UnitBuffID("player", 84963) and select(7, UnitBuffID( "player", 84963)) - GetTime() <= 3 then
    if UnitPower("player", 9) >= 3 or UnitBuffID("player", 90174) then
        CastSpellByName(GetSpellInfo(84963))
    end
end 

What I wanted to know is how to use the time var correctly in HaveBuff, I also wanted to know if my implementation of stacks was correct.

So I could do something like.

if not HaveBuff("PLAYER", 84963) or HaveBuff("PLAYER", 84963, 3) then
    if HolyPower >= 3 or HaveBuff("PLAYER", 90174) then
        CastSpellByName(GetSpellInfo(84963))
    end
end 

I was wondering if the 3 in HaveBuff("PLAYER", 84963, 3) will check if the time is at least that and or less than that.
I'm not sure if it will because sheuron's code is

   if buff and ( buff == 0 or buff - GetTime() > TimeLeft ) then return true end 

, so will this only return true if inq has more than 3? That's what it looks like. I just wanted to know if I was wrong.

I am unsure on how to implement stacks. Ideally I want to use the existing havebuff function instead of making another.

Maybe something like this?

function HaveStacks(t, id, stacks)
    if select(4,UnitBuffID(t,id)) == stacks then return true end
    return false
end

Just to make a few things clear.

This is working flawless. If it's not working for you, then delete, re-download both PQR and profile, check that you have put the abilities and rotations in the "PALADIN" folder, and the "PQR_Avery_Data" In the "DATA" folder, within PQR.


EDIT : Confirming js1974, the rotation is simply not working on Elegon. Not tested on the others bosses. Havn't been able to tell why, it's really weird. It was working on adds there, just the boss itself causing issues.

I did what you have told me and it still does not work...

I have a level 90 belf paladin and still not using the crusader strike and judgement

[DymondKing]

This profile will bug if you have the Exorcism Glyph to turn it into melee range. Make sure that Glyph isn't active and it will work.
Took a bit of time to figure that out :3

[triggersad]

ya, I removed that it works perfect, thanks

[paintpauller]

love it so far, the left shift is kinda annoying but i can live with it. the latest update just messed everything up and it doesnt like to work most of the time so i reverted back to the Halloween release =D. is there any way u could add [Jade Charioteer Figurine] (Jade Charioteer Figurine - Item - World of Warcraft.) link is for the normal one!

EDIT: also [Execution Sentence] doesnt work
EDIT #2: it will not let me use Blessing of Kings, it just over rides it

What is wrong with left shift?

exe works for me, bok is a dps loss, it will only use bok if you have grace of air from shamans.

going to try to get the new update out today, will be releasing a warrior profile today or tomorrow as well, lots of people have been requesting it.

[wow4Supplier]

Avery you are doing great job. Really and for this i wil donate! Its really good profile !
and for the people that are saying THIS IS NOT WORKING or PUT THIS OR MAKE THIS LOW DPS etc etc
go give 30$ for a retarded profile Dont wanna put the name here^^

[js1974]

Will add that in, also coming out with some more pvp updates soon. The leveling stuff is done.

Not sure if it was a bug in the rotation or something, but I have no problem doing elegon in lfr/normal or garalon in heart of fear, so I might have made an error somewhere before my recent edits, will be fixed in the next update.

I know you have put a lot of work into the setup and it's really appreciated but I would suggest dropping SoR as an AE option the seal is total garbage and you will just get more out of HoTR + DS without swapping seals. I've tested a number of times and just can't find a reason to ever go to SoR until Blizzard buffs the damage. Just my opinion on it anyway.

For the rotation issues these are generally all related to Exorcism and Hammer of Wrath not firing, I've tried with and without glyphs I've made a number of changes including deleting the profile completely and re-downloading it. On Heroic Elegon for sure it just completely quits the rotation you have to manually use Exorcism or Hammer of wrath everything else will continue firing. I noticed this happen on multiple accounts in Heart of Fear as well. I'm not sure what is the culprit but something is and I can only assume it's either a talent or glyph issue.

Suggestion would be to add Engineering Gloves as an ability, Personally it's just a hassle updating and having to re-add it and I'm sure a lot of Rets are still engineers with how it syncs up with ES. I'm not sure if it helps but this week I'm going to run all raids and log debug mode if this is possible so I can see the differences. I'm going to use Xelpers rotation today and see if Exo/HoW quit working based on the same exact glyphs & talents I have been using. If they don't quit working at least it will give us an idea where to look.

[paintpauller]

as for the left shift just in terms of typing and other things that u need to use shift for but like i said defiantly able to live with it. =D

our raid comp was messed up that day and i was the only one able to give out a stats buff, we did have 2 shamans and i know at least one of them was using the mastery buff so idk why it wasn't working then if that's the case.

with the Execution Sentence i was testing it out b4 raid and i couldn't for the life of me get it to use that spell.

another great suggestion is to have it more compatible with the PQinterface addon, maybe have it say that you are using Truth/Tv/Cs, Truth/Ds/Cs, Truth/Ds/Hotr or Sotr/ Ds/Hotr rather then ret single/aoe. but by no mean am i demanding this or anything like that just trying to give some cool ideas that u might find useful or like.

KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK, LOVE THE PROFILE!

ok so im raiding now and found the buffing problem im having, the hunters have a mastery buff to and it overrides the sham one causing me to cast might making us loose the stats buff. =D

I want to add gloves as a ability, but as far as I know you can't check trinket time? Xelper is adding functionality in the next update for it.
Right now if I added it, it would be a slight dps loss because if the trinket has <= 10 seconds till it's available and you use gloves, it will delay it by a gcd or a few seconds; I'm also unsure on how to correctly implement it, because if you are moving from phases quickly, or moving around a lot, like on heroic elegon for example it could also be a dps loss, because you only get half of its benefit. People also have different strategy's and you sometimes want to delay it for 20~ seconds to line up with bl/cooldowns.

will do my best to get the update out today, I rewrote a lot of stuff, so things are easier to update in the future without causing fps issues or slowing the profile.

ok so im raiding now and found the buffing problem im having, the hunters have a mastery buff to and it overrides the sham one causing me to cast might making us loose the stats buff. =D

name of buff?

as for the left shift just in terms of typing and other things that u need to use shift for but like i said defiantly able to live with it. =D

our raid comp was messed up that day and i was the only one able to give out a stats buff, we did have 2 shamans and i know at least one of them was using the mastery buff so idk why it wasn't working then if that's the case.

with the Execution Sentence i was testing it out b4 raid and i couldn't for the life of me get it to use that spell.

another great suggestion is to have it more compatible with the PQinterface addon, maybe have it say that you are using Truth/Tv/Cs, Truth/Ds/Cs, Truth/Ds/Hotr or Sotr/ Ds/Hotr rather then ret single/aoe. but by no mean am i demanding this or anything like that just trying to give some cool ideas that u might find useful or like.

KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK, LOVE THE PROFILE!
