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)

What was your cleint language before?
I change my client for the english version ( nothing to do with my problem ) and yesterday at MC there was no problem of freezing with my mage when I decursed. I will try with my druid and I will tell you if the problem is resolved or not.
I cant' explain why the problem has disapeared because I haven't changed my ui...
@Jano:
Ok, but what type of debuff is it (disease, curse, magic etc...)? Does Grobbulus has other debuffs of the same debuff-type? (ie: is it possible that a player is debuffed by an affliction of the same "type" as ["Mutating Injection"] at the same time?)
@eolwyn:
What is your character class? I don't think that CT raid is the problem, I have it (1.539) and have no problem.
@Reezatar:
It's probably an add-on conflict because messages fade out after DCR_TEXT_LIFETIME seconds...
Hello...
I got some problems with the textmessages and their fade-out-times... It seems like it takes rather 20secs. instead of 2secs. before they are faded completely.
I tried to figure it out by myself, changing the "DCR_TEXT_LIFETIME" to some different values but the time it takes until the text is faded remains the same all the time.
Can someone help me out, pls? Cause after curing some more people than just me, it really takes a lot of space... and i would like to keep the messages at the Text-Anchor to not show them only in the chatwindow...
thx in advance...
edit: some minor corrections... ;)
is when unlocked showing virtual frames in place of where afflicted would be
similar to ctraid's virtual group option
I changed my ui so I don't think it comes from my ui excepted ct_raidassist so I wonder if it doesn't come from this.... When I play in group I have no freez from decursive...
In raid , 20 or more it's the same thing.
Concerning the live list , displayed or not , it's the same problem .
I gonna make some tests to see my fps...
@eolwyn:
A few people are experiencing this issue... I don't know what's causing it...
Can you give me more details? - How many person are in your group/raid when the freezes occure? - What is your WoW client language? - What other mod are you using? - Do you have the live list displayed?
Do you see a FPS change when you activate or hide it?
@Kitsab:
1) There is already a table to update in the localization file. some afflication are already listed there. Give me the names of the affliction and I'll ad them.
2) This is not the goal of Decursive, besides there is no way to iterate available targets easily, this would cause major performance problems.
@N00bZXI:
I'm not sure I understand correctly but you can choose how many debuffs are shown in the live list.
Hello ;)
I've got some problem with decursive... When I push my hotkey to decurse , it's made some freezes. I'm not able to play correctly and decurse correctly. Could you help me plz , is there a probleme or it comes from my ui ? It makes me mad :'(
It's seemed to freez when there's nothing to decurse , but it's a little boring.
when unlocked, have it display placeholder frames for the debuffs - that way i would not need to get people debuffed just to drag it around in my ui
Hello,
I've got two suggestions for the developer of decursive.
1. Maybe you can add a Checkbox to the DCR main bar, with the function "display only mana classes" because a few curses from bosses do only influence mana classes.
2. maybe the DCR can do two functions, a player and monster dispell funtction. Add a MT target scanning function that looks for monsters buffs and display those over the DCR bar the player debuffs under the bar (as it is at the moment).
I hope you're interested in adding such functions.
best regards
Kitsab
I played with another priest today who had 1.9.7 and he was able to clear the polymorph in Scarlet with decursive. So maybe for me something was blocking it -- I have a feeling it could have been smartheal.

@Rahtak:
No it means that YOU should update your version of decursive^^
The version doesn't appear in the window title of Decursive anymore but in a tooltip.
The title of decursive window still show as 1.9.4 should update the localisation for current version.
@Torp:
Hmm this is not the same problem, Banish are ignored because normally those players cannot be decursed... but it seems to be wrong now :/
@Dandre:
Note that decursive may not detect a dispell immediately because it reads the debuffs icons, so the textue take a little time to update itself.
If you are able to clean other magic effects then you should have been able to clean the sheep. Decursive only cares about the debuff type...
So the next time, open the livelist window (if it's not displayed there, I'll have one more clue) and try to push your decursive key several times.
@carpone
I'll do these for version 2.0
>> Can you tell me why you would like that the debuff list grows 'upwards' instead of 'downwards'?
Heya. When trying to clear a banish (magic effect) i get a message about like this: "Banish detected, ignoring", no name specified and it appears in the chat screen. I suppose thats similar to the sheep problem some have mentioned. English client btw
I can bypass by dispeling the person without using decursive.
Hiyas:
I was the guildie in Scarlet Strath. Basically, the scarlet sorcerers there would sheep a group member -- I don't don't play with the live list up, so I'm not sure if anything gets posted. But I just see the picture of the person showing up as a sheep, and I hit decursive. There's no error message, and i think it says nothing cleaned - but since I'm in a big hurry usually I just targeted the person and cast dispell on them, which removed the sheep.
I hope that helps.

@sephtin:
Can you give details about what "unable"means? - Was there an error message? - Was the member name displayed in Decursive live list?
What is the language of the WoW client?
@CYPSYAN:
I'm not sure how :/
Guildie (priest) stated that she was unable to cleanse polymorph from a group member this evening using keybinding with Decursive 1.9.7. One of the mobs in Strat (live) sheeped a member, and she was unable to cleanse it off. :(
Going back to 1.9.4 or 1.9.5 resolved the issue.
Thanks for all of the time and effort you put into keeping this mod alive!
