[PQR] Rubim Profiles

[Ballerstatus121]

Rubim, I don't understand why but the glove slots, raise dead, and a few other abilities aren't working on the newer revisions for the DK profile.. I'm forced to use an older one. Apparently it's only me though because everyone else seems to be fine!

[mokkajojo]

in the new monk profile

how can i delete tiger eye from the current ability list ( isnt listed itself anymore )

and what is the toggle from chi wave so that it use it on cd ?

[Rubim]

Just want to give props to your deathknight profiles. They absolutely rock!
Thanks to you I don't need to create my own profiles anymore.

I must admit I like your previous profile better, tho... the last one you released before start using PQ_Interface was almost flawless. Only thing I changed was putting a combat check before activating hotkeys and checking if mouseover was an alive enemy before casting DnD on mouseover (for DW single target and 2Hand AoE).

I also noticed you are not porting SimCraft's "(target.health.pct%target.time_to_die)" correctly. Your code translates it as (TargetHP/TimeToDie) when you should be using (TargetHP % TimeToDie). This causes some errors when calculating the right time to cast Soul Reaper (and i *think* is the source of your difficulty to correctly implement Blood Tap).
That said, I tried correcting it and stuff went really crazy... probably because LUA numbers aren't integers but doubles instead.

Anyways, I think we can correctly predict Soul Reaper so when it procs (5s later) the target HP pct is equal or under 35 (45 w/ t15) like this:

if 100 * (UnitHealth("target") - DpsOnTarget * 5) / UnitHealthMax("target") <= 35 then ... 

DpsOnTarget can be easily calculated by modifying team nova's TimeToDie function so it returns the dps on target instead of it's time to die.

This is, in fact, the same principle of SimCraft's formula... just written differently.

Best regards!

Awesome feedback but you are wrong!

First lets look on what % means on simcraft.
- % is the division operator: it returns the division of the left by the right member.

On lua if we want to make divisions we use /.

Well... my bad then.
% is the almost universal symbol for modulus, I never would thought it meant a division in simcraft.

I usually do a research before putting every skill that uses something unusual. I'm always on the irc channel of simcrat and always reading the wikia.

I will fix more things is i got time.

for those who are interested in deleting tiger eye brew to use it manually, simply delete the following part in the abilities.xml file :

TigereyeBrewBuffUsed = UnitBuffID("player",116740)
TigereyeBrewBuff,_,_,TigereyeBrewCount = UnitBuffID("player",125195)
if not TigereyeBrewBuff
then
TigereyeBrewCount = 0
end

edit: dont do it , the profile will work sometimes and sometimes not. still dont know how to get tiger eye brew out of the rota

I guess hotkeys in combat or out of it are a matter of prefference, but please consider checking "mouseover" unit before auto casting DnD. My suggestion is that you check if it's and enemy (otherwise it casts DnD on raid members and everyone in the raid goes "wtf?") and if it's alive (happened many times with me before I fixed it: you kill the mob and immediately try to loot it and BAM!! DnD over a dead body. Not cool! ).

UnitExists("mouseover")
UnitIsEnemy("player","mouseover")
not UnitIsDeadOrGhost("mouseover")

Done.

Quick fix for the unholy is up.

Profile would not start correctly if you were on combat.

Monk profiles are still on hold.

Hey Rubim, just some quick feedback for your DK profile.

For 2H Frost: Everything is working perfectly except for AOE. It doesn't seem to be using Frost Strike at all, runic power just gets capped completely and as a result no runes are procing to feed more Howling Blasts. I had a quick look and there is something about saving runic power? maybe you designed it to save for a boss?

For Blood: Everything is perfect here too, the only thing I would ask for is a Key for Death and Decay. I know I can use the queue system but I prefer to cast as I run in. For example I start to run towards a group, hold Shift for example where I want Death and Decay and it drops it on them and then I begin to attack them. This is the one reason why I still use Novas Blood profile, lets me run dungeons very fast. Your profile and Novas both use different styles blood tanking. Yours trys to death strike as much as possible it seems to get a big blood shield while Nova's lets Scent for Blood to stack and then only death strikes to react to damage that has happened. I usually get my dungeons done quickly each week by running through with no healer (my friend queues as healer but goes ele shaman) and I use my dps gear, so it will be interesting to see which style works out better for this kind of play.

Thank you again for your hard work. These are just 2 small issues in an otherwise amazing profile!

I am currently the ot in our 2nd 10 man group till we recruit another tank. So here are my thoughts on blood tanking using half dps gear(loaded with mastery(I am sitting at like 170% mastery)).

When doing tot I believe rubims is better due to either boss hit slow(shields absorb most dmg,makes your Inc dmg less spiky and greatly increases your effective HP) or we are getting ass raped by adds( horridon/council/bats from tortos) so as many death strikes we can get the better.

One thing I have noticed is blood tap usage is horrid in the blood dk build. I have to manually pop it with pause held down so I can get my extra death strike off.

But even though my ilvl is 496 in my tanking setup I still managed to rank on horridon and the first boss lawl.
