Any chance you can add management for Council? (You basically want to SBSS your butt off on this fight as the primary way of renewing dots on every boss(100% uptime of all dots on each boss is the goal, I wonder if we can just do checks through Boss1,2,3, etc), so maybe add them to the burst target list?) I also think you should add support for haunts under crucial buffs such as the water buff on Jin'rokh, would greatly increase dps for that fight and future fights that can be added in as we go .) Another thing you should look into adding is SBSS when we have 10 stacks of the Wushoolay trinket and when the trinket of lei-shen procs; you have a 2 second window at 10 stacks from wushoolay to SBSS at full intel and 4 seconds on the lei-shen trinket at 100% crit and finally when the legendary meta gem comes out you'll want to SBSS under that aswell, which would greatly increase DPS and help when you need to add them to your other profiles.

Right now you just have the profile updating dots through SBSS if your current stats are better then the current dot power, which is fine but you should be refreshing when dark soul is about to fall off (and other powerful procs) so they have the most increased uptime they possibly can, also contributes to the burst.

I think you should look into migrating over to PQI, customization for stuff like Healthstone, Mortal Coil, keybinds, a toggle for major haunt usage (fights where you need to conserve shards, so don't waste them on procs), etc would only make the profile more appealing to people . Overall there's some stuff that could make the profile a lot better, that doesn't go to say it's already really good ..while the changes aren't in the need to be rushed I think they should definitely be added in and not pushed to the side as affliction will make its way back to the best spec, just all about gear to get it to that point, once we get the legendary gem it will easily be the preferred spec to play as it won't benefit demonology as much.

I noticed on Lei Shen that something's wrong...DoT's are not refreshing properly except during Dark Soul. It's letting Agony, Corruption, and UA to fall off since today's update. Is there a way to keep the second to last update available too in case we experience an issue with a new update?

**EDIT** Actually I see it on a target dummy as well. Weird. If nobody else is reporting it I must have an addon conflict of some sort.

think most people are playing demo :P but i will give it a try after work

I checked dummy and first 4 bosses in ToT worked fine with dots.

@ Kinkeh I am working on some of things you mentioned although it's hard without having actuall trinkets but maybe we get lucky
For now I have put profile to refresh dots when new ones are 20% stronger than old ones, I will soon add a timer for Dark Soul to use SBSS 2 secs before it expires and also for Bloodlust.
Then we see about specifics.
For now on council maintaining 4 targets is not that of an issue but issue with updating dots with so many GCD's. 4 targets = 8 gcd's + 4 UA casts....I do it to put 1 target as focus 1 on target and 2 managing with mouseover to not spend shards on SB:SS but to have more haunts since shard generation is great

I was looking at the proc monitor for Haunt and noticed the following:

if not Agony and not Corruption and not UnstableAffliction then
if TargetHealth > 25 and Soulshards > 1 and IsTargetMoPBoss() then
dotrefreshtarget = false
end

Changing the dotrefreshtarget boolean to "true" restored what appears to be normal DoT refreshing for me. Unfortunately, I don't have an old copy of this to compare against to determine if I inadvertently bypassed intended functionality or if you just left it set to false for debugging.

Yea that would be the problem, heh .

[Captncrunch]

Are you ever going to implement support for the last boss on the Green Fire quest line, he is a pain in the a**? Just curious.....

[Axercis]

I used the aff profile for that boss. Worked fine...Just have to set up park macros for the Pit Lord, and make sure you have macros set up to use the mouse tweak for things like banish and fear.

What is your item level? I couldn't get the pit lord to hose down the imps fast enough.

[Axercis]

My item level at the time was probably 505ish, but I didn't rely on the Pit Lord...I went Mannoroth's Fury and SB:SOC'd the imps to death. I only used Pit Lord breath for self-cleanse.

[LazyRaider]

park macros? care to shed some light?

That is there to stop the profile to apply dots manually on a target because if there is no dot on boss it should use SB:SS to put dots on boss. I will take a look today when servers come online and check what's happening but nothing changed about dot refreshing since patch si this is a bit strange.
