Before the Storm 12/5 - Page 3

I was under the impression that you could just setup a macro to do

/target person1
/cast dispell/decurse
/stopspellcasting
/target person2
/cast dispell/decurse
/stopspellcasting
/target person3

etc...and it would function effectively like decursive since if a person has nothing to be cured you can't cast dispell on them anyways. It would just be a bitch to setup and because of the char limit you'd need to setup three macro's and mash those.

I imagine that would take a long time to run though all that.

Also, this patch is a week late .. I was hoping for it yesterday.

I don't believe so. macros were changed so that the first failure to use an ability that would trigger the global cooldown stops the macro cold.

You will push the fucking button for each person and you will like it! Anything else would be cheating!

You know how healers are assigned to certain tanks and such? How at times, a specific healer is designated to heal a certain person, or persons, depending on the encounter, rather than merely having every healer keep an eye on everybody at the same time?

Ok, now take that above, and replace 'heal' with 'decurse'. It's not going to be that hard people, just a little extra work that we are WELL overdue for. Raid encounters have not been balanced around decursive.

Even before the change to stop fallthrough casting, that didn't work. If you look closely, you'll note that casting Dispell Magic triggers a GCD which is cancelled when the server says that there is nothing to dispel.

For the 100th fucking time, it was never about the extra effort or whatever. It was about NOT HAVING TO STARE AT FUCKING HEALTH/STATUS BARS 24/7 TO PLAY THE FUCKING GAME.

I'm a holy priest looking forward to dusting off my enhancement shaman. You want a decurse? Hope this totem's pulse'll do. Now, where was I? Oh yeah, FROSTSHOCKING

Tuco · 11-29-2006, 01:30 PM

Is it possible to make a mod that will select the nearest person with a dispelable affliction?

Camerous · 11-29-2006, 01:34 PM

I'm a full holy specced priest and I don't use any of the mods people keep saying priests "MUST" have and I am always at the top of the list for healing every raid. If I didn't want to play the game I wouldn't. If you don't like what is expected of you then change classes. *shrugs*

Meh I'm thinking the same thing. I havn't played a shaman in a year and a half. However I'm alliance now and don't want to leave my guild mates. Here's to the Xpac.

I can be at the top of the healing meter too without add-ons. Its not that hard, wow isnt a hard game. However the fact of the matter is, Id rather see the in game NPC's im fighting instead of staring at the health bars on my screen the whole night again.

Hell, with this change for my priest all we will need is a black screen with 25 health/mana bars and lets go. Fuck we dont need graphics. Some add-ons are over powered and allow some fucktards to get good at the game(ER monitor and such) but decursive just takes some of the whack-a-mole out of the game.
