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.

I have a suggestion for future releases, there should be some way to indicate when dispell is off cooldown, as much as I like decursive, I'm a bit tired of spamming right click on it to dispell on fights where I need to do multiple single dispells, it's a waste of efficiency.
A sound, or visual indicator that dispell is now available, that would be nice.
Normally the cooldown is shown on the MUFs in the same way it's shown on regular spell buttons (the cycling clock style thing with a spark at the end). You want something on top of that or are you not seeing it at all?
As a resto druid, when I cast Symbiosis on a paladin to give him Rebirth, I get Cleanse, which can clear a disease effect. Does Decursive detect this and add diseased players to decursing candidates? I don't see this in the feature list above but I think I see the code supporting this in the LUA source. If it's there, I recommend adding it to the feature list.
Yes it's there. Symbiosisis is fully supported. I haven't updated the documentation for several years...
Not a huge deal but just a comment. Decursive should only support the latest available ACE, that is also downloadable through the Curse Client. I use the nolib version of all my addons so theres not 5 million copies of the same thing. The AceConfigRegistry in the current ACE3 on this site, and AceConfigRegistry in Decursive are not similar. And it warned me of this. So I had to download Decursive itself and rip the version of AceConfigRegistry it wanted from it. In the future could you only mirror the offerings of the ACE3 distribution with nolib. Thank you.
Reason: ACE3 r1105 is set as alpha. While r1104 is set as release.
So nolib ACE3 comes only with r1104 while nolib Decursive wants r1105.
indeed but you could just have set Ace3 to alpha in the curse client to solve this problem which will solve itself automatically when a new release will be tagged for Ace3.
The problem with this is that, effectively, even if you select 'Release' for Decursive itself, you are still getting 'Alpha' addons. If you don't want an 'Alpha' addon, you get a broken supposedly 'Release' version instead.
Decursive may break because the spec of the 'Alpha' library it is built on changes, or developes a bug. While this is obviously out of your control not being the library author, it IS still your decision to include 'Alpha' code in your 'Release' build, effectively making the entire build 'Alpha', as you cannot run Decursive without that 'Alpha' code present.
Conversely, if the 'Alpha' of Ace3 becomes too buggy to have on the system for some reason, then the 'Release' of Decursive becomes useless as a result. Obviously such a thing could happen with the 'Release' build of Ace3 as well, but it is far less likely.
In the end, you are forcing anyone that wants to use the current 'Release' Decursive to use 'Alpha' code, which is not what a person getting a 'Release' version should expect, whether it is obvious (when using no-lib) or hidden (all-in-one download).
For the record, I am a no-lib user myself, and have many Ace3 addons, which updating to an 'Alpha' build could also affect adversely.
How do I get the message for "1000 Lua Errors" away? Is there anyway you can delete the cache or do I have to install the addon again?
I'm not sure about the message you're talking about but if this is the one I think it is, the only way to make it go is to remove the add-on(s) causing those 1000X errors. (there is no cache, it's all happening 'now')
You need to enable Lua error reporting in the interface or install the add-on BugSack to identify the add-ons causing those errors and update/disable them as they are not working anyway...
Just to let you know as an elemental shammy, I had to manually add Purge to the custom spells list in game. Purge cleans magic effects and should be in there as the second option to choose from rather than the Hex spell to charm the party/raid members. If you could just add Purge as a default option, that would be great.
Thanks
Check the latest alpha, it should be fixed:

It used to be there but got removed by accident some time ago...
Could you allow Decursive to hook onto popular and known healing addon frames? This way it can grow respectively with the number of units the healing frames show. Or optionally allow users to set the position Decursive uses in 1/5 man, 10, 25, 40. As it stands had to make a Decursive profile to match all 4 conditions. And thank you for a great addon.
nope this can't be done, working with Blizzard's stuff is already difficult enough, trying to do the same with other add-ons is not practical unless you like pain.
About the profiles you've made, remember that you can create macros to switch between them (type /dcr for command line options).
I've also heard of an add-on called reflux that is able to switch multiple add-ons profile at once: http://www.wowace.com/addons/reflux/files/
I didn't see how to make an offensive dispell with decursive.
Would it possible to add a button to make offensive dispells against the current target (and/or the focused target) ?
Thanks

why did you type /dcrdiag ?
i think i type dcrreport.Decursive keep saying i have too many LUA errors
that happens if you're using add-ons that are no longer maintained and crash silently in the background.
The only way to solve this is to either: update those add-ons or replace them with other similar add-ons. You'll gain in performance and functionality.
To see the problematic add-ons, enable "Lua error reporting" in the help section of WoW's user interface options.
Else you can just ignore this "too many error" message which will happen once per session.
Priests used to have Dispel to clean magic (friendly or enemy), and Purify for diseases. Left and Right-click respectively. Now Purify does both for friendly targets. Dispel is vs. enemy. My Decursive is still set up as Left click Dispel, and Right click Purify, when really, all that's needed now is Left click Purify. Trying to figure out how to change my friendly debuff removing to LEFT click. Thinking maybe the priority list, though it still seems like the addon needs to just "Purify" now, and ignore "Dispel", now that the removal of the two different buffs has been consolidated into one ability.
It's difficult because I still want the Magic Charm, and Magic to have priority over diseases, and show up first, so I don't wanna change my priority system just to left click. Guess I'll have to get used to right clicking for both the red and the blue notifications...
You can change that using the custom spell interface, re-add Purify while checking the checkbox beneath the edit box... Just read the instructions in the tooltips everything is explained.
