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.

In reply to crakkus:
It should highlight when you mouse over it, depending on your settings it could be beneath the first MUF
if the command /dcr HideMUFsHandle was used then the handle is hidden, you can try to type this command to see what happens
In reply to archarodim:
It worked! it was somehow hidden:) a blue square popped up when holding alt:)
Thank you so much archarodim!
Hi - is there any way to allow Decursive to cancel Druid forms so that cures can be cast? I currently have to macro and keybind this e.g.:
#showtooltip Cure Poison
/cancelform
/cast Cure Poison
In reply to HoorMaister:
Yes you can edit Decursive's internal macros through the Custom Spell tab in Decursive's UI settings (/decursive) and add /cancelform at the top. Just re-add your spell after checking the box below the typing field. If you read carefully the tooltips and the instructions available on this setting pan, you should be able to do it.

How do I stop decursive from announcing interrupts?
In reply to Graberl:
Can you give an example of such message? I'm not sure what you mean
In reply to archarodim:
So, I am leveling a Mage, and every time I counterspell an enemy, it announces that I interrupted X's Spell Y. In party chat. When I disabled decursive, it didn't announce that, when I re-enabled decurcive, it would announce it.
In reply to Graberl:
Nevermind... figured out what the issue was
In reply to Graberl:
Decursive doesn't do that. It must be another add-on that only works when Decursive is loaded for some weird reasons (probably bad libraries).
WOW Classic: So I am having an issue and I am not quite sure why it tarted happening. When Decursive ping me I can't decurse anything. I get a message "Counterspell [WoW8.0-unknown] failed on ....
This just started happening in the last few weeks. I removed the addon, deleted it from my folder and no joy :(
In reply to bspeer:
Can you give the complete message? Is casting counterspell the expected action? (counterspell cannot work on friendly units)
I am a priest. I play classic. When getting rid of a Disease using the tiny boxes (Micro Unit Frames), it automatically uses my "Abolish Disease", when i actually want to use the "Cure Disease" spell instead. Anyone know a way to make that happen?
In reply to AngryToiilet:
Check the cure options in the settings
In reply to archarodim:
I did. couldnt find it in there. Maybe i missed it but ive looked a few times.
In reply to AngryToiilet:
look for the "Custom spells / items" option panel, there you can change the priority of the different spells you have, it's in the lower part of the panel.
In reply to archarodim:
I am in that section. and when I check the box for Disease then another drop-down below that comes available under "Unit Filtering". But all that does is say All Units, Player Only, Others Only.
I'm looking for a way for Decursive to not use the spell Abolish Disease. Instead I want Decursive to only use the spell Cure Disease.
In reply to AngryToiilet:
In fact you need to re-add your "Cure Disease" spell in the box titled "Add a custom spell / item" while having the check box "Allow internal macro editing..." checked. then, in the lower panel you can adjust the "Spell Priority" slider.
You can see which spell Decursive will use in the upper part of the option panel. (you need to wait a few seconds after making a change for it to be reflected there)
In reply to archarodim:
I did all that you suggested. I moved the Spell Priority slider to -1 because from what the drop-down description suggested i needed to make it a negative so that the "abolish disease" will be over-written. Maybe I am interpreting that wrong, not sure.
But when i was done, and waited, the top part of options didn't change. It is still showing i will use Abolish Disease.
I don't understand why this has to be so difficult. Why cant there just be a section that simply shows my spells i can use for a cure, and check the box for which i want to use. These addons make life much easier but geez, sometimes they are so frustrating in trying to do the simplest thing.
I just want to use "cure disease" instead of "abolish disease" THAT'S IT...haha
In reply to AngryToiilet:
Is there any specific reason you want to use cure instead of abolish? The only thing I can think of is buff cap purposes when raiding and if thats the case you should not be the one cleansing as paladins cleanse only costs 121 mana compared to our dispel 238mana and abolish/cure 198mana and ofcourse shamans will just put down a totem. Abolish costs the same amount as Cure so casting it multiple times to remove disease stacks or a disease that you want to get rid of faster than the 5 second roll time will not hinder you at all anyway.
