InnervateFTW for BC (help plz)

[smurfy]

hm another thing could be:

that the button to cast changes its texture/color or whatever. it always cast innervate but you could make the desition to cast innervate to the target by looking at the button. (ok rouge and warri dont work because blizz allready checks that).

bye smurfy

Not the best thing, but it could be something. Tbh when you're in a 40 men raid fighting Gluth or 4horsemen you don't have much time, and the BIGGEST issue is to waste innervate on someone already innervated.

So a button that change color when some conditions are met isn't THE siolution but it's still something.

Either... mmm... have to check that. Add high visible visual clues in raid frames about innervated targets. Something similar to emergency monitor, but for innervates.

DYnamic list of ppl with mana below some percent and given class. Remove from list if innervate buff is found. Could solve most issues.

Cheers,

problem about dynamic and lists i think thats wat blizz dont want to work in the new secure model

so you still must select the player manually (with ct_raid or somthing) but you have the list of players..

Precisely.

You can have something like Clique, which allows you to cast stuff dependent on how you interact with it, but the addon can not make that decision for you.

Anything that is dynamic - changed while in combat - can not trigger a cast.

Maybe my english isn't so good, so I'll try to explain with simple and clear statements.

You can NOT made an addon to innervate automatically targets not becasue Blizzard doesn't want, but becasue it's a plain and idiotic thing

Target to be innervated must be carefully choosen and only a TrueDruid® can do it.

Problem is that you have usually 3 seconds (no more than 3 seconds) to find the target in a friggin' 40 men raid when the raid leader yells. So missclicks are quite common. 2nd problem is syncronization. When RaidLeader yells usually 4 or more druids search for the friggin' healer without mana and use innervate. The target is ultra-happy (400% mana regen stacked 4 times) but the other healers will run dry, 'cuz innervate have a 10 mins cooldown.

So druids have only 2 or 3 needs from an innervate addon:
1) help in targetting the right player. Help, not do-it-for-you. HELP. Show me who's OOM.
2) avoid double casting <- might cause raid wipe
3) announce if you cannot do it (LOS, range) so some other druid can take care.

NO friggin' automatic target or cast.

Why ppl (and even Blizzard) thinks that everyone wanna do autotargeting ?

Because helping to show who's OOM (used to be) is only a small, small step away from doing an automatic casting.

So, in 2.0, we can SHOW you who's OOM but you have to click their name somewhere else (or we can light up their raid status box someplace - but we can't make a short top 5 list with the "healers with least mana" that you can click).
