Scorchio! 2

Table of Contents

This project is abandoned and its default file will likely not work with the most recent version of World of Warcraft. Whether this project is out of date or its author has marked it as abandoned, this project is no longer maintained.

Note: as of Jan 2021, Scorchio has been flagged as abandoned due to the original author not carrying over her account to the new Overwolf system. Overwolf refuses to undo this. It isn't possible to release new versions while it's flagged as abandoned - they never get packaged. The original author flagged the project as "All Rights Reserved", so I'm not sure whether Overwolf would allow me to create a new forked version, even if I wanted to. Ultimately, the best path for everyone is probably to move on from Scorchio and build what you need around something like WeakAuras or TellMeWhen. -ywfn666

Scorchio2 is an addon for Mages that tracks Living Bomb, Nether Tempest, Ignite, Slow, Flamestrike (Flame Patch and snare), and Polymorph on multiple mobs, and can give you warnings and notifications when the debuffs need reapplying, or have expired completely. Scorchio can also provide bars for personal buffs/procs/summons: Clearcasting, Heating Up, Hot Streak!, Brain Freeze, Fingers of Frost, Combustion, Icy Veins, Arcane Power, Rune of Power, and Mirror Image. Up to three anchors are available for use (targeted, non-targeted, and buffs), and the sort order for bars within each anchor is customizable.

Use /scorchio2, or Blizzard's Addons configuration window to configure Scorchio2.

Localization Help Needed!

Lots of work has gone into translation, but there's still some left to do. Localizations are easy to submit on the WowAce Localization Page, and help many users. Please help with this if you're able. And thanks to everyone who's helped so far!

I turned on the Floating combat text like it was said to do to track Missile Barrage but it is still not working.

Any fix for this?

strange. Barrage hack has always worked for me that's why i included it in r64. It works flawless in fact on my end. Cancels as intended :) I've been so busy on DBM development with blood council and blood queen mods and new range checker functions I didn't have time to look into brain freeze, especially since i only raid on mage on alt run and well, what mage raids frost? :)

Works for me as well, but AFTER changing "false" for "true" in the above line.

BTW Mysticalos, I do raid frost, at least for mob pulling - there are some bosses as well where frost is a nice alternative, really few of them nonetheless -.

No news about combat log changes in this patch, are they?

Regards

Forgot to say... I didn't get Brain Freeze... it's a dps loss anyway. So u'r right, not even frost raiding mages do use it, Je suppose ;)

@Devilcat

Shouldn't it be:

if arg2 == "Missile Barrage" then
barrageHack = true <---

Else the missile barrage bar wouldn't disappear should you cast arcane missiles b4 buff time is over.

BTW, I've added a Spanish (esES) localization file and a workaround for making it work in Spanish clients... Too bad this workaround doesn't work in English clients as well, have to figure out some way to parse using locales.

Hope ennuig is back soon, love your addon man!

That could be, I forgot to delete that line actually.
I never got that hack to work, so I don't use it.

i used to use frost for a heroic general vezax form but yeah, brain freeze is dps loss, all the frost dps specs suggest that using it is a dps loss from just casting another frost bolt with a high chance to crit or completing a shatter combo.

Update for Brain Freeze:
Enjoy!

elseif (suffix == "DAMAGE") and (srcGUID == UnitGUID("player")) then
if arg10 == "Pyroblast" then
local isName = localSpellNames[ "Hot Streak" ]
Scorchio2:UpdateTable(srcGUID, srcName, isName, GetTime(), -1, true)
elseif arg10 == "Fireball" then
local isName = localSpellNames[ "Fireball!" ]
Scorchio2:UpdateTable(srcGUID, srcName, isName, GetTime(), -1, true)
end
elseif (suffix == "MISSED") and (srcGUID == UnitGUID("player")) then
if arg10 == "Pyroblast" then
local isName = localSpellNames[ "Hot Streak" ]
Scorchio2:UpdateTable(srcGUID, srcName, isName, GetTime(), -1, true)
elseif arg10 == "Fireball" then
local isName = localSpellNames[ "Fireball!" ]
Scorchio2:UpdateTable(srcGUID, srcName, isName, GetTime(), -1, true)
end
end

function Scorchio2:COMBAT_TEXT_UPDATE()
if arg1 == "SPELL_CAST" then
local timeStamp = GetTime()

if arg2 == "Missile Barrage" then
barrageHack = false
local isName = localSpellNames[ arg2 ]
if isName and DB.profile.baroptions[T[isName]].track then
Scorchio2:UpdateTable(UnitGUID("player"), UnitName("player"), isName, GetTime(), 1, true, 15)
end
elseif arg2 == "Hot Streak" then
local isName = localSpellNames[ arg2 ]
if isName and DB.profile.baroptions[T[isName]].track then
Scorchio2:UpdateTable(UnitGUID("player"), UnitName("player"), isName, GetTime(), 1, true, 10)
end
elseif arg2 == "Fireball!" then
local isName = localSpellNames[ arg2 ]
if isName and DB.profile.baroptions[T[isName]].track then
Scorchio2:UpdateTable(UnitGUID("player"), UnitName("player"), isName, GetTime(), 1, true, 15)

I downloaded r64 and selected all options in SCT, but it still can't track MB or hot streak.

I've donwnloaded the r64 version and it's not working for me even with all the options in combat text. Could it be becouse it's a non english version? (spanish).

actually that's quite possible. it uses a text match from the SCT so it probably woudln't work on non english clients. personally i hope blizz fixes the combat log in next minor patch so SCT method can be removed and all will be well again. then all I'd leave in there is the spell damage debuff tracking :)

the r64 version is so bad. living bomb/scorch not being tracked all the time, pyroblast timer delayed when used. it's just so bad. the maker of the original scorchio needs to get his ass here and fix it.

Your addon is great compared to other addons, but since 3.3 patch I had to replace it with ClassTimer. SCT is so annoying and what JasperKazai said it actually works pretty well, but there's still no track for Brain Freeze.
I wonder how ClassTimer was not affected by this bug... I'm assuming it tracks the buffs and not procs or something (I have no lua experience to judge).
So, isn't it possible for you to go that way too?

PS: Tracking Ice Block would be lovely for PvP btw.

the only thing that shows in combat log is spell hit or spell miss for pyroblast, missile procs clear faster because at least that registers spell cast success. pyroblast has a short lag because it has to wait for target to be hit by it to register "ok he cast pyroblast clear bar"

my mage is specced FFB for anub and arcane atm and i just never go frost to do any real kind of testing to add brain freeze, maybe on raiding off nights when I might not have to use both specs I'll look into it..

the addon that doesn't use SCT does use buffs instead of combat log, but as author of scorchio pointed out before, this is a more aggressive method of doing it that actually uses more resources, granted on the scale of modern technology and how small addon is, the impact is negligible but still not preferred method if it can be helped.

Problem with that explanation on hot streak is before 3.3 this didn't happen. When you fired your pyroblast it reset fine every time. It's only with this beta version I've seen this happening.
