PoisonSwapper
PoisonSwapper manages weapon swaps for maximum poison damage by automatically swapping in a weapon with instant or wound poison to your offhand when you have a 5 stack of Deadly Poison up with more than 5 seconds remaining. This allows you to use a damage poison, like Wound or Instant as is appropriate to your spec in order to achieve maximum throughput.
This can result in a 300 DPS gain for a BIS combat rogue, and a 600 DPS gain for a BIS Mutilate rogue.
To use it, just poison your primary offhand with Instant or Wound Poison as appropriate, and a secondary offhand with Deadly. Your Instant/Wound hand should have better uptime, so you generally want that weapon to be your better one, and your Deadly weapon should be fast, due to Deadly's flat 30% (before talents) proc rate. The mod does the rest and automatically swaps weapons for you. You can toggle it on and off with /ps, or by clicking the included LDB entry.
PoisonSwapper supports a PVP mode, as well, which will equip poisons with the priority: Crippling -> Mind Numbing (If caster target. This includes ret paladins and enhance shaman at the moment, unfortunately) -> Damage Poison. It is automatically enabled against PVP targets, and can be forced on (for something like faction champs) with /ps pvp. Do be aware that in a PVP environment, where poisons are often removed, this will cause you to be on the GCD a lot and might potentially be an overall strategic loss. Usage is left to the user's discretion.
- /ps boss - Toggle on boss-only. Boss-only will only use Deadly poison on boss mobs, damage poison on others. Default Off.
- /ps debug - Toggle debug mode. Can help identify why the addon may not be working. Default Off.
- /ps [pvp/pve/auto] - Force PvP, PvE, or Auto mode. Default is Auto.
- /ps toggle - Toggle PoisonSwapper on and off.
- /ps time <number> - Set the number of seconds at which to swap back to your primary poison. Default 5.
Finally, PoisonSwapper includes an intelligent swing estimator, and will attempt to only equip weapons immediately following a white mainhand swing. Changing weapons resets your swing timer on both hands, so swapping halfway through a mainhand swing timer is rather expensive. This causes PoisonSwapper to produce superior overall DPS compared to poison swapping macros or manual swapping.
Also if the offhand weapon I want to swap is a high speed or low item level it doesn't seem to want to do it. There's something funny about the AI of this mod.
After installing 3.3.0 patch you can delete this =)
In any case - thank you for your work !

/ps enable
/ps disable
I have a macro which equips my primary weaspons and disables the swapper if I need to take manual control back.
/ps disable
/equipset DesiredGearSetName
I added the following after the "toggle" command for my purposes but I would love to have this change part of the default package.
elseif cmd == "disable" then
mod:Toggle(false)
return
Based on version 0.4.7
Weapons:
Mainhand: The Spinebreaker (http://www.wowhead.com/?item=48712)
Offhand 1: Dirk of the Night Watch (http://www.wowhead.com/?item=47938)
Offhand 2: Steel Bladebreaker (http://www.wowhead.com/?item=46958)
My Problem is: My poisonSwapper only works with instant poison @ mainhand and wound/deadly poison @ offhands.
But PVE combat rogues normally use wound poison @ mainhand and deadly poison @ offhand. With wrong poisons applied poison swapper works but i lose about 700dps. So it doesn't make sense to use it.
Am i doing something wrong or is it a known bug? I would love to improve my dps with poisonswapper but at the moment it does the opposite :)
Using v0.4.7
Thanks in advance!
I have confirmed this w/ the debug, however, I cannot find a config via cli or gui to change the poison it is looking for...i want instant.
Help fixing this issue w/ be helpful.
using v0.4.7
Thnx.
"Do you have at least 3/5 in Improved Poisons? If not, it'll be looking for a Wound Poison weapon."
The Addon prefers the Shiv over the Gouge so I always have to put some other poison on it when doing raids immediately after pvp to make it work as intendet.
Is there any solution?
Now on Onyxia for example ony I have to disable your addon or it'll gimp my aoe dmg through FoK spam (slow daggers are best apparently)
Having it equip the fastest weapon isn't a sollution either caus i carry the 1,4spd dagger aswel while my raiding spec is hack and slash with axes/swords.
Also.. can you have the addon revert back to the default weapons after a wipe/death?
It should revert to your highest priority weapons when you target a hostile mob.
I enable it, choose my rogue, but it doesn't work in game. When I return to the character select screen, it has been disabled.
Dang.
