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

Status
Not open for further replies.
Writing this because there appears to be an increase in the number of issue posts that are missing the information needed to look into the members concern. Just a quick reminder to all members using ShamWOW.... If you experience some unexpected behavior or have constructive criticism regarding ShamWOW, be sure to follow the steps listed in the ShamWOW Frequently Asked Questions [CLICK HERE] post. ShamWOW assesses the current spec, glyphs, environment, and combat scenario and and will react differently based upon any one (or more) of those possible factors and there simply isn't enough information provided in a narrative post for me to look into it. I cannot effectively troubleshoot or consider your issue without the necessary information, so for the quickest "useful" response use the FAQ as a guide.

Thanks for your assistance with this,
Bobby53

HonorBuddy Mode: Lazyraider
 Shamans Location: The Vortex pinnacle
 What should have happened (be specific): Used all abilities as enhancement
 What did happen (be specific):When I targeted a Dragonkin in this instance it only uses flameshock and i turned off the spell immune check plus they aren't immune to other attacked
 System time of issue (log time stamp): not sure on the exact time stamp but i was in the instance just before 11:50 PM and 12:20am.

haxed, I looked into the log file and its a little unclear what was occurring. I looked at the activity beginning at:
Code: 
[11:49:57 PM:763] *Flame Shock
and it appears to be functioning correctly being followed by other abilities as appropriate. There was a 4 second pause between next Flame Shock series
Code: 
[11:50:44 PM:505] *Flame Shock 
.... lines removed for space ....
[11:50:48 PM:597] *Lava Lash
where WOW / HonorBuddy was reporting back that abilities were on cooldown. Not sure if at that point a key was manually pressed causing the CD or GCD but in general it then picked up and continued casting other abilities. In short I can't locate a point near the timeframe given that corresponds to the description. If you encounter this again, please post that log and be sure to note the system time you observe the behavior at and hopefully between the two log files I can gain a better understanding of what you are seeing and correlating that with the log info. The only scenario I can think of where it would behave like that is if the character was never moved by the player (since its a LazyRaider setup) within Melee range of the target. I didn't see an example of that however. Thanks for your help, Bobby53

bobby: i was reading thru the thread and read the part about you putting this into SIngular eventually.. personally I feel you would be doing this CC great in justice in doing that. THis is by far the best CC for HB, its healing and dps is off the charts. I think you'd be better off leaving it as a stand alone CC and if anything pull things into it, not make it go into other things.
 
Awesome CC.

I only have one question: Why does it turn into ghost wolf be4 looting ?

intr3pid, Thanks for the post. You will want to carefully review the Frequently Asked Questions for steps on posting an issue or constructive criticism. I'll be happy to look into it and consider it provided the necessary detail as described in that post. Thanks for your help and good luck with your Shaman, Bobby53

I was in no means trying to be rude here. Sorry If I came off that way. Is there a way for me to switch the spell order? I am in no way fluent with these CC's and once again sorry if my post seemed offensive. After reading it I it does sound a bit aggressive. Anyways boddy if you could hook this up I would <3 you long time. This CC is amazing and I actually utilize the lazy raider thing, thats the only reason I made that post because I was lower on the DPS totem pole. Thanks in advance and once again sorry if I sounded rude.

intr3pid, My apologies if I somehow gave the impression of being defensive. I did not read your post as being rude. Direct modifications to the spell rotation are not supported in this CC. You change options in CC Configuration that can affect spell selection/availability, but ShamWOW selects the spells based upon the combat situation. For instances and raiding, they come directly from the corresponding Elitist Jerks thread as referenced in the download post. Those are considered the best in class prioritizations for spell usage. If you find ShamWOW is not following that rotation, you should post as a bug as described in in Frequently Asked Questions. If you disagree with the prioritization specified there, then the EJ forum is the best place to post suggestions for improvement. If you do believe there is a bug, be sure to look at the system clock on your PC at the point you see a spell chosen that was incorrect so I can focus on that specific combat situation, as I won't be able to review every cast made through an entire instance. Thanks for the post and good luck with your Shaman, Bobby53
 
Ya, EJ is saying Unleashed Element should be cast almost immediately after casting lava burst to reduce the chance of Unleash Flame being consumed by a tick of the DoT from Flame Shock. For some reason Shamwow cast UE then casts flame shock then lava burst.

int3pid, Will be happy to look into that for you once I receive the issue post with detail as described in the FAQ. Thanks again and I'll be sure to keep an eye out for it, Bobby53

Maybe a noobish question.

Support for Earth Shield on Tank ?
Click to expand...

Its deff implanted my friend.

Also Bobby,

i find on my shaman when i have "Disable CC Movment" and have "Don't Target When Movement Disabled" checked it still targets and can conflict with my DPS.

Need a log?
 
Also, for Enchancment Rotations i think it shojuld be more along the lines

Rankings are based on the following priorities:
1) Feral Spirit
2) Lightning Bolt only when Maelstrom Weapon = 5
3) Searing Totem
4) Lava Lash
5) Unleash Elements
6) Flame Shock if dot is not up
7) Earth Shock
8) Stormstrike
Lightning Shield is kept active
Windfury Weapon Main Hand
Flametongue Weapon Off Hand

Afaik

there is no setting for Earth Shield and it isn't being cast.

Water Shield on the other hand is being cast on self.

Maybe you're confusing Earth Shield with Earth Shock....

It is implented, the CC uses earthshield on the tank.
It is beyond pointless to have a setting for that.
There is no questionmarks in my statement for a reason.




Edit:
If your CC don't cast EarthShield on the tank it can have multiple reasons.

1. you have setup the cc wrongly - read the FAQ
2. see #1
3. you aren't resto
4. HB fails @ detecting who is tank, see #1
5. you are using Instancebuddy, see #4
6. see #1
7. the stars are aligned along the venus leylines and are producing to much stardust for your computer to handle, see #1

Yes. If it isn't being cast for your Resto be sure to see the Frequently Asked Questions page for details on posting a question or issue.

Yes, will always need a log on issues or questions with observed behavior. Thanks, Bobby53
