Fpsware Priest

muntahunta said:
just finished a couple of TBC dungeons with my 64 priest... I didnt experience ANY bugs unlike when using the bundled CC's

the only problem I have is waaaaaaaaay too much over healing.

im nit-picking here, and its a problem I have with any healing CC... when a warlock in the group uses life tap during a fight (stupid warlocks lol) they need healing obviously... however the tank is still getting pounded on and is doing their job properly (having all the threat)
the warlocks health is going to be <50% so the priest is casting greater heal or another spell that takes a long time to cast. thus, leaving the tank vulnerable to the 10 mobs attacking them.
would there be any way to have it so if the warlock uses lifetap, they lose alot of priority from healing until the tank has <5 adds?

as i say... its not a major problem, but when the tank gets to <20% health because of a stupid warlock taking up my healing time... its getting around the time to change your pants.

ill keep testing, loving your work :)

Healing priorities are: Circle of Healing (with Tank as main target), then tank is evaluated before anyone else, then AoE (Prayer of Healing), then yourself, then (if you're not the main healer) the party assigned healer, then everyone else.

This logic is applied when determining if the tank or another party member should be healed first. If the tank is below 80% (hard coded) heal the tank first - no exceptions. But if the tank is above 80% and any other party member's HP% is more than 40% below the tank then heal the party member.

Currently I have no way of determining if the Warlock is casting Lifetap or if they are taking damage. But, some spells will check if (and how many) mobs are attacking a target and cast the appropriate spell. Eg, if the Warlock was at 40% HP then it would normally cast Pain Suppression, but first, it checks the number of mobs actively attacking it, if there are 0, then it skips that spell and moves on to evaluate another spell.

Personally I don't use Greater Heal, well, not with the healbot, but when *I* heal I do. At level 70+ there was almost no chance of going OOM so I prioritised Flash Heal and removed Greater Heal.

EDIT: My healing settings for a level 75+ Discipline priest.

My healing settings.webp

The healing logic that currently exists is merely a "place holder" until I can do some testing in heroics. I've had my own design of a proper healbot for a while but didn't have the time to implement it. Once I can do some heroic healing tests we'll see just how much it will change.
 
Hey FPS :)

What setting do you have it on?

When did you last update from the SVN?
 
Oh doh -.-". maybe i should go to sleep again. Didn't notice the "Pull" option. That occurred to be the problem. Thanks for the quick response anyway :P.. no worries
 
what does verbose healing do???
I have turned it on but noticed no difference.
 
Commanding Shout causes the priest to spam PW: Fort in groups, Blood Pact is fixed though.

Tell the Warrior, "hey, my bot doesn't like that, please stop!"

.... or I could fix it too :p

In all honesty, I dislike when Warriors use Commanding Shout if there is a priest in the group.
 
Hey FPS

I would recommend removing the settings for "Cast Blast When Mind Spike x1-3" Unless you fix it ofcause - Or is it just me having some problems with it?

Btw I would love a feature to save all the settings for the individual fight/rotation.
Ex. Settings save 1 I would use as "Mind Spike Rotation" with "Dots on adds" and Mind Spike "when NO adds"
Save 2 "Dot rotation" Always Dot and never use Mind Spike.

Ofcause it's not required - Would be time saving tho :)

Hehe, agreed. Funny because that's exactly what I wanted to tell him when I saw it happening. It's kinda pointless when you already have fort and could get extra attack power, but some warriors are kinda herpdederp

I mostly do afkable instances so the problem is I am not always there to give them a good lesson so I have to leave PW:F off just in case, but would appreciate a fix <3 love this CC

BTW.. Atonement is the coolest talent ever. Most pre-80 instances I have been healing with PW:S and Smite alone (with HB ofc)
 
Hi FPS,
Sorry it took me so long to test when i said I would a few weeks backs.
I only tested this on my brand new priest, I had no issues at all. Great CC

I will test it out on my 85 priest soon, if I have any issues I will post and let you no. :)

While I have not personally tested the "Mind Blast on Mind Spike x1-3" - due to being sub level 81 - others have reported it is working as intended.

I don't quite understand your request per the saved rotations. You already have the ability to cast spells only when you have adds etc. I don't understand how what you want is different.

I personally reported it was working as intended just after I downloaded your "mind spike version" but the day after when i updated to your SVN build it wasn't working as intended anymore :/

I don't want it any different than it already is.

I just suggested a way to SAVE all the SETTINGS in something like a "profile".

Like
Saved settings 1
Saved settings 2
Saved settings 3

When using the "profile" saved settings 1. all settings would change to what ever I saved it as and the same with "Saved Settings 2".

Instead of always changing all the settings one can save the preferred rotation in a profile.

Dunno how to explain it :p

Jawn's reply is all you need.

EDIT: I purposefully didn't give instructions on how to dowload / install / setup a SVN. As this was supposed to be an "advanced user beta test".

I understand what you mean and how it could be useful, unfortunately this is getting into a level of customisation that I don't want to go into just yet. That is not to say I won't do it in the new future.
 
Not sure if you are aware that Mindsear will be better than mindspike on say trash packs ect from 4.1 if you are then ignore me :)
