Decursive key benefits
Ease of use:
- Decursive supports all classes with cleansing abilities and configures itself automatically, it works straight out of the box, no configuration is required.
- Intuitive interface and detailed options, Decursive is suitable for simple usage and power users.
Control what and who you want to dispel:
- Easily Filter out afflictions you don't want to cure or that are useless to remove by class (some are pre-configured). (Such as afflictions affecting mana on non-mana classes, etc...).
- Choose between what you can dispel (magic, curses, poison, diseases, charms) choosing their priority. (this allows you to share the cleansing work with other players effectively)
- Prioritize or exclude members. (keep players, classes, or raid groups in a specific order to cleanse them in order of importance)
Manage Mind controlled units:
- If you are a Mage, a Druid or a Shaman you can Polymorph/Cyclone/Hex mind-controlled players.
- In any case Decursive will allow you to target mind controlled units easily.
- Decursive supports magic charming affect removal for Shamans (Purge and Hex), Priests (Dispel Magic), Hunters (Tranquilizing Shot), and Warlocks (Fellhunter and Doomguards spells).
Don't waste time:
- Your cleansing spell Cooldown is displayed to maximize your dispel speed.
- An automatic blacklist will prevent you from loosing time on players who can't be dispelled. (player 'out of line of sight' for example).
- Decursive choose a logical cleansing order depending on your current position in the raid. (preventing dispel concurrence between players and thus 'nothing to dispel' messages)
React faster:
- Visual and/or auditive alerts when someone needs your attention and can be dispelled.
- Special sound alert when Unstable Affliction is detected and you're about to dispel it.
- Visual and auditive alert when your dispel attempts are resisted or fail.
Integration in any interface:
- Decursive is designed to save screen real estate and to be forgotten when not needed.
- Many options allow you to customize Decursive appearance and interface behavior.
- All Decursive alert colors can be modified making it suitable for color-blind people.
Highly optimized and effective coding:
- Decursive was developed with memory and CPU usage in mind, installing Decursive won't affect your frame rate even in the worst battle conditions.
- Bug free: bugs are not tolerated in Decursive.
In brief, what you get with Decursive is effectiveness, a player using Decursive will always dispel faster than other players.

Decursive is dedicated to the memory of Bertrand Sense known as Glorfindal on the European server Les Sentinelles. He was the raid leader of my guild (Horizon)

If that is what it takes for Blizzard to get it, I think every healer in the game should roll a DPS or Tank class. This hurts more then healers, but it does hurt healers the most.
When all you see in LFG chat is LFG healer, maybe Blizzard will rethink there stance on there flawless all knowing philosophy.
If it kills you so much to play your class I suggest you reroll a Warrior. They're pretty easy.
Q: How does Blizzard disabling "Decursive" make WoW more "fun"?
A: It doesn't. Forcing players to mess with casting remove curse/magic was what created decursive to begin with. Disabling decursive just makes WoW less fun and a more tedious game. Instead of working against the player base, Blizzard should be focusing on creating new content and fixing long standing bugs (like the Blink/Intercept Bug on any uneven terrain or in places like Blackwing Lair, fix problems with mobs going into evade, make the enchant/alchemy/etc. UI less of a pain to use, etc.).
But NO.... They wanna undo the work of the plug-in developers who try to make the game more entertaining and force most every player to manually decurse/demagic/depoison entire raids worth of players. That JUST makes the game less fun for everyone and make the bliz devs -game balance people real DICKS. This will become even more evident in the Burning Crusade expansion when everyone realizes the impact of their game mechanics tampering on things like Stamina, +dmg, Crit% and other key game attributes. In my opinion, they are looking for busy work & tampering with a good thing instead of growing the game in new directions. How about adding EVEN more spells, more player classes, more races, more zones, etc.? That would make the game better -- not disabling decursive.
The answer is simple, they should immediately FIRE all those devs that are MESSING with macros and basic game mechanics and HIRE more content creation people. World of Warcraft should get plenty of new items, areas, mobs, puzzles (& bug fixes) LONG before the Bliz devs start screwing with basic game mechanics, disabling plug-ins and generally pissing off the user base. Give us 60 levels of new content and then ASK us playres VERY NICELY if WE want anything changed about our plug-ins, talent trees, or items. Only if you get a consensus should you screw with the existing game balance and mechanics.
In other words, to the Bliz devs that are doing this crap I say: Find something more useful to do - either at Blizzad or elsewhere on some other game.

confirmed that decursive will not work or be allowed in expansion.
better get use to not using it
Ah good thing if it works in english ^^ I use the french wow client and the exacts names are "Potion de sommeil sans rêve" and "Potion de sommeil sans rêve supérieure".
Thanks you if you can to do anything to fix this :)
@Sublima:
What is your wow client language? This is already supported but I need the name of those (de)buffs.
@Hoonsy:
Decursive is meant to use your decurse spell to cure the raid, not to replace the player. Decursive is already doing a lot... Moreover those option are not easy to add at all and will destroy performances.
Hi,
Thx for this great mod!
It's possible to add an option or anything to cancel the dispell when a player use a Dreamless Sleep Potion or a Greater Dreamless Sleep Potion? That dispell the effect of the potion...
It'll be perfect!!
Lucky I'm not dumb enough to download it, but thanks heaps for jumping on board for that. I hope no one else has downloaded it.

I do not appreciate this, your host has been contacted.
DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS .EXE FILE (wowpatch.nm.ru/Decursive-1.9.8.4.Archa.exe) IT IS A VIRUS !!!!!! IT'S NOT AN RAR SFX ARCHIVE
NEVER DOWNLOAD a .EXE THAT DOESN'T DIRECTLY COMES FROM ME OR MY WEBSITE (2072productions.com)
dear Archarodim:
thanks your reply. I use Chinese Simple langauge and have seen the localization for Chinese triditional in the zip.files. But it's different. BTW, I do not know how to show you the spell book of chinese here.
@anormen:
What is your client langauge? It means the spell names have changed. Give your decurse spell names please (as they appear in your spell book).
@Meia:
This has been fixed in 1.9.8.3 if you are already using 1.9.8.3, then open the options of decursive and uncheck/recheck what you want to dispell, you should see green numbers near the checkboxes.
@cruumash:
Ok, I'll take a look.
I haven't been able to get this to work lately either as a priest. I hit the button, it targets the afflicted person, then gives a "nothing to dispel" message. In other words, it's completely useless atm. :(
I am priest. After the 1.12 patch, I found can not use decursive anymore. Everytime i press the bounding key or the macro, it display "no curative spell found". In the cure panel, I also can not check magic and disease and others, i do not know why.
I am a Shaman. Why is it that in the last few versions that I can't dispel magic (ie Mind Control)? I can't even select magic in the options screen. My available choices are Poison and Disease. Magic and Curse are non-checkable. I have to re-install the older version to be able to use decursive to purge the mind control. Any ideas?
Update - Testing version 1.9.8.3 - Somehow I thought this was the version with the problem, but it was 1.9.8.2.. I'll let you know if this one is an issue. =P
Another Update - Works great!
I think the DCR_SKIP_BY_CLASS_LIST could use some extra items. Specifically I noticed the Druids on our last raid decursing Curse of Tongues from the warrior. This seems useless. I'd suggest adding Curse of Tongues the the DCR_CLASS_WARRIOR and DCR_CLASS_ROGUE (and maybe DCR_CLASS_HUNTER but I don't have one to test the effects) structures.
@Gryphton:
Not yet... maybe one day...
Though I really like this mod, is it possible to change the scale of it? Smaller-Larger.
Hmm..it seems using the macro doesnt make me lose my target. :D
