Lua buff/debuff question

[Nov17]

I want to check if my target has talented chains of ice

UnitDebuff("target", "Chains of Ice")

But the problem is that there are two Chains of Ice. First is the slow and the second is the root.

How can I change the above code to use the spell ID as if:

UnitDebuff("target", 96294)

thanks

Long time since I did this but instead of using the name try using a spell ID like in the second like of code. I think that the root version of chains of ice has it's own spell ID just like the non root version has it's of spell id.

Edit: Upon reading your post more closely, I'm now sure if you can check a targets talents like that. Maybe there is some other function for checking talents. Nothing I've been looking at myself.

I think the second syntax is not working. I try the code without the debuff and it prints error. I try the code WITH the debuff and it still prints error.

Maybe this is what you looking for (see updateAuras function)

if anyone googles this in the future I found the solution:

for i=1,40 do _,_,_,_,_,_,_,_,_,_,id=UnitDebuff("Target",i) if id==96294 then DO WHATEVER HERE end end
