ShamWOW for HB2 - An Enhance/Elemental/Resto + PVP/RaF Healbot by Bobby53

[Raijan]

Posting a log for the stormstrike issue.
This bit caught my eye;
"% status: spell [Stormstrike] has max range of 0.0 but target is 3.7 yds away - not cast"

Heya, the title says RAF healbot but when i'm using 1.9.2.1 and try this CC with RAF i'm getting this error in the debug log.

[8:41:08 AM:455] There is no Initialize() in this cc.

Is it just not supported yet?

Edit: Im sorry, ignore the question. Getting into combat prompted some action - still testing.
Edit 2: Wow, I neglected to see the Healbot.txt that came in the zip file. Bad me!

Just reviewed and the HEALBOT.TXT file included is obsolete. Updated text is below. Note that I did extensive testing on soloing and Battlegrounds, but was not able to test the Healbot support for this release. Please post specifics about your experience and I'll get any issues resolved quickly.


ShamWOW Party Mode / RaF Healbot Instructions

1. To enable Healing, you must set the PVP Combat Style to Combat + Healing or use a Resto Shaman. This is temporary until a specific RaF options tab is available.

2. Join the group. Make sure another character is group leader. Since the group leader serves as the tank, healing will be disabled for any Shaman that is group leader.

3. Start HonorBuddy. Login then Select RaF mode. Be sure to Load the same profile your leader will use if following a botted character. If following a player, any profile will do that is within range.

4. You can now play the lead character manually, or set it up in a separate HonorBuddy instance to be botted. Note: if you bot the leader you should not AFK at the moment.

For Battlegrounds Healing, just use a Restoration Shaman or choose Combat+Healing for the PVP Combat Style. Your Shaman will not follow a specific player but will move throughout the profile healing members of your faction as needed and fighting opposing faction forces. To switch to DPS only, simply change the PVP Combat style value to Combat Only.

[Raijan]

Thanks much for the SS fix, it's really ripping though the mobs now.

 

[jaycrew]

CHANGE HISTORY:

05/29/10 Revision 4.0.3.1

a. Consolidated and using same heal logic for self-heals as well as raid healing.

b. Fixed bug where range check of Stormstrike was failing

c. In Fast Kill mode, will now use Warstomp racial as an interrupt if Wind Shear is on cooldown and target is in melee range.

d. Added support for casting Earth Shield on self when doing battlegrounds as Resto.

e. Fixed issue in healing logic so that it now correctly prioritizes

f. Added support for recasting Grounding Totem for Resto Shaman when it has expired..

g. Prior to casting Chain Heal will confirm target has another heal target within hop range, otherwise Healing Wave is cast.

h. Added Steam Rager #24601 to the Frost Immune list

Awesome. Looking forward to testing out the new changes.

Once my shammy hits 80 I will most likely respec 1 talent tree to resto, and have this party and raidheal.
I hate healing, but when a bot does it for me I don't think I would mind, hehe.
6 levels to go.

not doing anything

Well i am using 1.923 the earliest i have is 1.922 and both are doing the same thing. The only time my shaman will do anything is if i buff the weapon and give water shield. Then he will mount and move to the hotspot. But then when entering combat all he will do is target, no spells will be casted etc. Here is the log, let me know if you need anything else. And in the log when i pushed stop on hb it errored, so thats why it has the error at the end.

My shaman is having issues healing himself. Sometimes, he just doesn't heal when he drops below the set % in the config. He just keeps using other abilities and winds up dead. I'm getting a lot of deaths per hour because of this.

I originally thought it might be a keybindings issues, so I reset them to default again but that didn't help. I am going to post a log soon, but I haven't found any information in there that looks like it could identify a cause.

edit: HB window shows "Activity: Healing" but he just keeps on attacking or just stands there.

 

[silverjax]

Im always in the Top 3 healers (Random PVP) with this CC -enhancement specc'd
This CC is the best so far for PVP, it doesnt look bottish at all.

Joker: Sorry about the issues your having, but I cannot recreate in the current version. Re-download ShamWOW.zip and run again. If still happening use this link to go to the second post in this thread containing the FAQ. It has steps on posting an issue so I'll be able to look into further.

I tried reinstalling everything and now it just stands there.

HB 1.91
ShamWOW 4.03/4.04

If it pulls agro, it will defend itself but it's not moving at all. It just stands there with activity of "Resting", or "Looting xxxxx mob" if it manages to kill something. I attached a fresh log below, with the debug option checked.

Any ideas?

 

[bambam922]

Very impressed. My shaman is lvl 30 after 1 day.
He has all heirlooms though.

 

[Tobii]

Very very very nice CC! Thumps up from me..
Even though there is some stuff i think should be changed..

Feral Spirit - Is used t often, normally i only use it when i am in combat with 3+ mobs.. But that might just be me..
Stormstrike - Is not used as often as i would like it to.. i don't run around with drinks, so i go for the combat mana.. but might be me as well..

Well, keep it up mate! still to test in PVP..

Sorry man, but the log file is incomplete. The startup info is missing (version, settings, etc.) and the entire log only contains 5 seconds worth of activity. It should show the HonorBuddy version you are using, the options that are set, and the profile you are using.

Not moving is usually due to one of these things:

1. No profile loaded.
2. Profile loaded doesn't have info for your level character. Since profiles have character level range requirements, your character could be too high or too low for the profile.
3. Navigation was still calculating the best route. While this occurs there is no message in the log file. The status bar will say Moving to Hotspot
4. Navigation couldn't determine a path, so your char would stand still forever. There should be a log file message for this one if that was the case.

My guess on theinfo you provided and the short time represented in the log is #3, the Navigation engine was still calculating the best route from your current location to the first Hotspot in the profile. On my system which is average to slightly below average, I have seen it take as long as 23 seconds on initial startup to calculate the path. That is unusual and was due to me being in the back of Orgrimmar and calculating a path to spot a few zones away. It did however calculate the best route and begin moving, but initially it felt like it wasn't doing anything and there was a problem. This amount of time for route calculation has only occurred for me at startup.

If you still have the issue after waiting longer and can't determine the cause, you'll want to follow the steps I described to create a complete log file for around 3 to 5 minutes and reply with that. This doesn't sound like a CC issue, but to be able to help you further I'll need the log info.

Tobii, it's configurable. Go to the CC Configuration and change the PVE Combat Style to Survival (PVP Realm) and it will only cast cooldowns in stressful fights ( 2+ mobs, mob 3+ levels higher, an elite, or against an opposing faction player.)

I might just let it stay like this.. it's doing really well, even though it's playing different..

I really like it, awesome CC..

Thanks. Also, appreciate the feedback on Stormstrike. I've added an enhancement so it will check the talent spec and if there are 1 or 2 points in Improved Stormstrike then it will cast when off cooldown. Otherwise with 0 points and no mana return it only makes sense to keep the damage debuff up on the target, so only casts when the Stormstrike damage buff has fallen. This change will be in the next release to be posted within a few days.

I love the description in the log! After watching the latest version a bit more, I've noticed that in PVP the resto shaman tends to target pets (warlock pets, hunter pets, val'kyrs spawned from Nibelung) on a regular basis. I believe this is built into the CC since when I run other classes, they may target a warlock pet but some logic immediately says "no, invalid target" and it reselects a human player.

Are you noticing it target pets for heals? for damage? or both?

Having a few issues, it stared out great, except he didnt use lava lash.

but after a few mobs and he got below 50% (heal value) he didnt heal, and gradually kept dropping
first and only heal cast was at 8% health out of combat and after that whenever pulling new mobs he would do nothing but auto attacking :S
