Ira Caeli ~ Gelu Mors Eques

Holy crap at above ^^ :)
Death Knight 101 in there lol. Thanks, good reading stuff.
 
hello there, i'm completely new to this CC. I tried running it with BGBuddy and lazyraider but it just stands there and does nothing. i have no plugins enabled.
 
@Sipher,

As the initial post within HB states:

"This CC is for use with LazyRaider/RaidBot only!"

Lazyraider & Raidbot are non-afk botbases, I do not make AFK CC's. My CC;s are meant for players who want to focus on more pressing issues then the rotation, while still retaining the accuracy and precision of movement and the ability to interject if needed.
 
Hello, I was looking through the GME Tactics file and I noticed there was detection for bloodlust and noticed it doesn't have Heroism the alliance version of Bloodlust. New and learning C# so just reading code and couldn't help but noticing:)
Code: 
//howling_blast,if=runic_power<60,if=buff.bloodlust.react
            {
                if (StyxWoW.Me.CurrentTarget.Distance <= 30d && StyxWoW.Me.CurrentRunicPower < 60 && (StyxWoW.Me.ActiveAuras.ContainsKey("Bloodlust") ||
                    StyxWoW.Me.ActiveAuras.ContainsKey("Time Warp")))
                {
                    CastSpell("Howling Blast");
                }
            }
            //obliterate,if=runic_power>=60,if=buff.bloodlust.react
            {
                if (StyxWoW.Me.CurrentTarget.IsWithinMeleeRange && StyxWoW.Me.CurrentRunicPower >= 60 && (StyxWoW.Me.ActiveAuras.ContainsKey("Bloodlust") ||
                    StyxWoW.Me.ActiveAuras.ContainsKey("Time Warp")))
                {
                    CastSpell("Necrotic Strike");
                }
            }

@Projektt,

1) Obliterate should only ever be used on Cloth and Leather classes when NO healing spells or incoming heals are present on our current target or your opponent is a complete idiot/under geared.

2) Necrotic Strike should always be used on Plate and Mail targets as a standard over Obliterate as Obliterate does not do nearly as much damage against these classes. Therefor Necrotic Strike should be used as it's damage-over-time(from the its heal absorption) surpasses the damage of Obliterate. Necrotic Strike is also used on Cloth and Leather classes when a heal or incoming heal IS present on your current target. On a side note, Necrotic Strike also grants a 30% casting debuff.

3) With a good setup, one should use Obliterate on Plate and Mail classes when you know a kill will follow with the use of 1-3 closely spaced Obliterates. Also one can use Obliterate on Killing Machine procs but the damage from Frost Strike can out due an Obliterate on Plate and Mail classes, when used on a Cloth or Leather classes Obliterate will usually win.

4) Frost Death Knight's ARE Master Frost in PvP, never anything different and this is why:

A) Our best damage output reforge is mastery, 5% hit is gained with our gear, Spell Penetration is gained with the use of our gear's Blue gem slots and cloak enchant. The only other option is Critical, which is well below the damage-per-second output line when compared to Mastery.

B) As all reforges are to Mastery our only viable enchant scheme is to take Strength as our top priority(using Mastery for our feet, resilience for our chest, PvP enchants for our shoulders and helm, and the PvE enchant for our legs). Similarly we use strength as our main gem priority as well(this is to say we stack pure strength in every slot IF(and this is the same rule for every class) the slot bonus is 20+"AKA chest, helm, legs". You can use a Strength + Mastery gem for your chest and a Spell Penetration gem for your Legs(which should have been there anyways), our Helm is paired with the meta-gem(Strength + Critical effect).

HERE IS THE MAIN AND DEFINITIVE REASON:

1) Our main spell has always been Howling Blast, and since Howling Blast's damage is directly increased by our Mastery rating it is even more viable as our main spam. Next is Obliterate or Necrotic Strike, these two are used dependent on what class and armor type is currently targeted and weather or not a heal is present or incoming. Frost Fever is applied via Howling Blast(if the glyph is used), also take note that with the Icy Touch glyph we do not need to apply the Blood Plague debuff as Frost Fever does 20% more damage(which is also increased by our mastery rating, rendering Blood Plague useless and thus Obliterate is already at a disadvantage). Lastly Frost Strike is used to dump our Runic Power, and again Frost Strike is increased by our Mastery rating(but more so from Strength).

2) Obliterate gains nothing from any reforge less you go critical(which is useless), it does gain from Strength and the application of both debuff's(Frost Fever and Blood Plague), but the Howling Blast > Necrotic Strike > Frost Strike rotation's damage output DOES AND WILL exceed that of the Howling Blast > Plague Strike > Obliterate > Frost Strike rotation when you take into account the USEFUL up time of Obliterate, the up time of heals on your target, and the armor class of your target. Rendering Obliterate an "On Situation" spell, rather then a consistent main ability.

You are correct to say that Master Frost is "good" for AoE, but why anyone would want a DK to focus on AoE'n a pack is beyond me. The damage output isn't that great when you look at the damage per extra mob ((0.5 * (((1322 + 1322 / 2) + (AP * 0.44)))) Vs ((1322 + 1322 / 2) + AP * 0.44)) on your main target. Granted you can cause all targets within your cone to be hit with Frost Fever, still I would never aim to AoE, just focus your target and the splash damage will do the rest. As for using Obliterate on a 1v1 scenario? It's all situational and I have given you a detailed reasons as to why we ARE Master Frost...

all i can say is @projektt OWNED
 
I have been trying to spec my Frost Dk but many people differ on the specs, which is good except i cannot find the "best" spec or the one this class is based off of. Could you please provide a spec that you use or the spec this class wwas based off of? and is this class better with 2h or DW? jw. A good DK spec would be awesome :) thanks!
 
@Arthzil,

As you should be in Unholy Presence the whole time, putting points in IFP is useless. As for spec, the above spec is fine and can almost be called standard across the board for PvP Frost Death Knights. As for the Glyphs, I would change two and this is why:

1) Obliterate might be a good glyph if you know you're going up against non-mail/plate/healer teams... rarity... A better choice would be to couple GoHB with GoIT which grants 20% more frost DMG, again this is increased by our mastery.
2) GoPoF is useless less your jumping from high heights. GoBT is better as it will save you health (even if it is a small amount... still better then a falling cushion.)

As a Master Frost Death Knight you will mainly use Howling Blast / Frost Strike and Necrotic Strike. It's a badass AOE Spec and mainly used in Rated Battlegrounds or non-breakable CC Setups in Arena.

As a Regular Frost Death Knight you will mainly use Obliterate / Frost Strike for Single Target Burst.

You only think it's owned because you don't understand death knights. When it fact he's kind of correct but he's misunderstanding the question. So before you talk learn how to play kid

No it doesn't There's master frost that's good at AOE dps for RBG's and regular frost that utilizes obliterate more for single target. I thought you said you played Death Knights before in Arenas and RBG's?

The only question you asked was if I played a Death Knight in Arenas and RBGs. Obviously I do... I will not continue this argument as it won't get anyone anywhere, but we can both agree to disagree on a few points. If you wish to go into detail as I have done I will be more then glade to try and understand your view point.

@Community,

In a nut shell I would say that one should play their Death Knight based on what is needed of them by their group. If what you do works then more power to you, no one can tell you otherwise.

How exactly does RP lock work? there's not a word about it in this topic according to search thread thingy :(
 
@Arthzil,

RP Lock and RP Pool:

These functions will either Lock or Pool your RP based on what you put in the respective numeric fields. So for RP Pool, if you put in "50" the CC will not use any spell that uses RP less your current RP "Pool" is over 50. For RP Lock, if you put in "30" the CC will not use any RP spell less your health is above 30%. Both of these functions are nessicary for proper RP usage and to make sure you have enough RP in a given situation.
 
The config menu is freezing and causes HB to freeze.... happens when I try to turn death coil on for OOR
 
@Kendecray & Gimp8Gimp,

I'll check into this, but as the rewrite will be released soon well have to see what happens on the new version.
 
@Community,

As I have received a high number of complaints that "The CC don't not move none"... I am attempting to add movement... GME will be the for-runner in this endeavor and if all goes well I will push the methods to the rest of my CC's...

Edit: Almost 12 hours of movement code.... It starts > Mounts > Moves > targets > does a crappy half fast job of a rotation? > runs in circles > dies > keeps on dieing > targets and chases a random target while in ghost form > rinse and repeat.... I think I will call this a good day!!!
