I'm a mage and at the moment, I am using SmartBuff's SmartDebuff function. OK, it doesn't generate a live list like DCR but shows everyone in raid and highlights the players that need decursing/cleansing, but it DOES target and cleanse on click and that is what we want isn't it?

Don't see the reason why this wouldn't be possible for DCR

WTB 2.0 DECURSIVE

@Voldin- You're suggesting the same thing posted previously... See comment: 12/11/06 @ 1:46 PM +1900

... the Advantage of Decursive, is that it takes into account whether or not a person is in range, has the debuf, etc. before it acts. I believe the next best solution might be the SmartBuff addon's SmartDebuff function, but haven't had a chance to try it out yet. The method you suggest is also plausible, so long as you make it a part of your raid strategy to make certain that everyone stays in range, and assign groups to cleanse using just a macro.

Personally.. I love what blizzard has done to lock things down... to take away some of the automation and botting techniques (As an example... have you seen the rogue videos where they just hit one key repeatedly... raiding like that just does NOT sound fun to me!) But to make encounters that were clearly designed with the ability to do automated cleansing in mind, and then take away most of the functionality of the automation of cleansing... just doesn't make sense. Manual cleansing for 3+ bosses in a row not only takes a large amount of fun from the game for some classes that are relied upon heavily for cleansing... but it adds in the element of extreme frustration for those classes, and in turn everyone in the raid. *shrug*

Personally, I'd be totally fine with manual cleansing by macro or even select and cleanse... IF AND ONLY IF Blizzard took the time to rebalance some of the encounters that are insanely cleanse heavy *cough* noth *cough* faerlina *cough*... (the list is long)

• shrug*.. just my .0002g.

What about working it in a way such that it doesn't actually auto-taget for you, but will allow you to spam a macro keybinding and act on a moused-over target, such as this one-liner:

"/cast [target=mouseover] Remove Lesser Magic"

That of course would be expanded to include the logic to determine the UnitDebuffType and then cast the appropriate cleaning spell based on the result.

In the end, the mod is still legal because it isn't auto-targetting and auto-casting, but isn't much more difficult for a player to use. We'd basically just have to keep hovering over the players protraits/raid box and spamming the "decurse" keybinding.

Just a thought. I've actually been trying to find a way to do such a thing in a "simple" macro instead of having to develop an entire add-on for it, but it seems to be a good deal of logic to determine the UnitDebufType and the proper matching spell, so I'm not sure that a macro would be the best approach. Or if it can be done in less than 255 characters to begin with.

My $0.02 :-)

I was thinking, and came up with some suggestions. Maybe they were all thought of already and they won't work, but maybe they will, or give some other people an idea, so I'll try anyway ;)

If it's possible, maybe set the focus to the person you want to clean. Then you could have a few preset macro's that clean whatever debuff the focus has (Posion, Magic, Curse etc). Then the logic can determine what macro to fire. But I guess Blizzard will have prevented setting focus from a addon/in combat

But creating the preset macro's should be possible nontheless, and changing them into using mouseover as a target instead of focus, and having the decursive list work as a party frame, you should still be able to hover over a person and clean whatever debuff with 1 button press. Only extra action would be you have to hover over a person now.

I already have a macro on my druid that will decurse a player that i mouse over, or will cast abolish poison if i hold ctrl, but it is really annoying to have to press ctrl now and then on different debuffs. Maybe my ideas are silly, maybe not, but I hope they are of some value to anyone :)

Cheers for Decursive so far, hope you manage to find a nice workable solution!

it is great

I won't panic and I'm confident that "our" decursive will come back as perfect as it has always been

full support and many thanks in advance to get this back soon !!!! ;-))

ps remember the time when we didn't get all of those addons ? we were playing and winning as well.....

I think that this addon no longer works because blizzard, in new patch 2, cancel a lot of funcions... Now, no addon can choice players to decursive or heal, the user must do that (sucks).

The best addon that i found to decursive is SmartBuff http://ui.worldofwar.net/ui.php?id=2323 This addon do buffs, but make decursive too...

If some one found addon better them SmartBuff to decursive, please, post.

/decursive no longer works.

Maybe its clashign with another mod I dont know. If anyone has any knowledge of mods it clashes with please post something.

just an idea .. (i've no programming experience) isn't possible to define a global variable with an addon und use this variable in macro? like: /target %todecurse; /cast ... no need of removed targetbyname-function

so nothing to change in macros while infight, just the content of the variable changes

so, nothing to do than install addon, write a macro, make a keybinding than just hit the key binded to that makro

is that possible?

I was hoping the latest version that was posted today would address the cleaning issue but it hasn't. I don't mean to troll here, but Smartbuff seems to be doing the trick.

It creates a little grid that turns colors Depending on the Buffs needed. For priest Blue means to Left click the grid area and remove disease, red means magic and to right click to dispel magic. 

I am concerned that it is missing some of the debuffs though. I am not sure if it is a Range issue. But sometimes buffs show up in Decursive that don't show up in Smartbuff/debuff.

Hmm, I take it back... looks like he did give credit...

• shrug*

But so far, comments seem to be that it's not working correctly either :(

Best solution I've seen so far is: http://members.cox.net/bren327/macro.htm

That makes it as easy as: 1) Create the macro and bind a key to it. 2) watch CT_RaidAssist for one of the frames to turn color when they need cleansing 3) mouse over the frame that needs cleansing, and hit your keybinding.

This solution would be even better, if the live list in decursive consisted of "frames" that allowed you to mouse over a name in the decursive list, and hit the keybinding for that macro.. *shrug*. If Decursive did the logic (in range, has curse, etc.), displayed it in live-list... that would simplify it to nothing more required than to mouse over and hit the macro's keybinding. *shrug*

I know.. it's not perfect, but it's better than we have now. :(

BTW, has anyone tried : http://wow.curse-gaming.com/en/files/details/5120/decursive-2-0-with-autodecurse/

Looks like a rip-off of work to me.. *ponder*

This was just posted.

http://wow.curse-gaming.com/en/files/details/5120/decursive-2-0-with-autodecurse/

With all the limitations that Blizz is enforcing, I would be happy with <Name of Player 5> in Group 4 is Cursed and only show the ones that are in range.

One thing about the pre patch Decursive was they were out of range in most fights, since I am a mage I tend to stay away from the tanks and rogues.

Ulasha: I belive that only have beta versions to download

any eta ? :)

About macros: I did some tests earlier and you CAN indeed have decursive write the decurse target and spell into a macro which the player then spams. Would look something like: /cast [target=raid23] Dispel Magic /decursive Which casts the spell and then has the addon rewrite the macro.

Downside: Does only work out of combat. No macro editing infight.

i cant download...why?...there are no mirrors
