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 mean seriously... I know there are lua errors... but I don't need decursive to tell me about them all the time.
I have looked in the options and can't seem to find an option to disable the decusive spam, can you point me in the right direction please?
Many thanks.
You could also update your addons using the curse client.
But things like sexy map which still work, cause a ton of lua errors.
I don't understand why Decusive needs to tell me this information.
If I want to know it, I got Bug Grabber, Swatter or the in built blizzard lua error displayer, all of which have ways to turn themselves off and not mention the errors should I choose to... except for Decursive.
I know what it is only telling me.
I know it is only telling me once per session, even though it feels like more. It feels like the session resets upon a reload ui or entering an instance.
You said the only way to remove the message is to disable the add-on causing those errors.
Why is that the only way is my question to you.
Why can't you just not tell us?
Please don't misunderstand, I love decursive, it has been a great addon for many years and continues to do its job well, but why must it tell me stuff I don't want to know about or already know about?
Why can't you give us the option as the author of the addon to 'not' spam us?
Surely you can do this, you are the author.
Thank you for getting back to me, and I don't mean to take my angst out on you or anything, but lately decursive has been really frustrating me due to this.
Addons are updated as up-to-date as they can be.
I can only /beg you to please add an option to disable this irrelevant spam that I already know about.
Thank you in advance. =)
So I update to a new version, Decursive tells me of the errors and that's it, nothing else until a newer version of itself is installed.
But that's just my strong opinion on the matter. =)
"Even one lua error is not acceptable"
What I want to know is why you are obsessed with forcing everyone to have BugGrabber installed and enabled via Decursive?
If I know for sure that you are not going to ever change the way Decusive is right now, I'll edit the code myself and fix it to not interact with Buggrabber in any way. But I don't want to do this. I would rather it be an option the author of the mod gives us than a patch given out by users to other users.
People are different. You may not accept even one lua error but there are many other people who don't care or know what it is from. Usually an outdated addon which still works fine but has a couple of issues somewhere, aka Sexy Map.
Trying to force everyone to use buggrabber and have it enabled is like forcing a religion on someone. Some people just don't wanna pray the same way or at all.
Please reconsider your very strict policy on having decursive, a cleansing mod, report errors and link up with Buggrabber.
Many of us in the community would greatly appreciate it.
Thank you again, and once again, please do not misunderstand me, text can have absolutely no emotion at all. I want to stress that I do like your mod and what it is designed for. Just not what it is doing and not designed for.
Cheers. =)
I've gone through and removed all the BugGrabber stuff. I cannot believe how much time you have invested in the bug reporting side of things...
For anyone else out there who has been as frustrated as I have been, the easiest way to remove it is:
1)Decursive\Libs -> delete BugGrabber
2)Open Decursive\ -> open embeds.xml with notepad and remove BugGrabber line.
That's the simpliest way.
Sorry Archarodim, great mod. Unfortunately I'll be doing this every time until there is an option for it not to be used.
Thanks again for your hard work. I don't want you think I am unappreciative, coding is hard work, I know.
