Interrupt success weakaura

[Bryce]

I was looking into making a weakaura that would annouce in raid warning whenever a player successfully interrupt a cast and then say who is next or something along those lines. I know there are addons for it, but would rather use weakauras as everyone in my raid group uses it. This really shouldn't be neccessary, but we have some people that tunnel and well yeah, it would be helpful.

I know how to make it say on successful interrupt, but I don't know how to make it say who interrupted, etc. Anyone care to help?

[Tercio]

Do you need for Brackenspore mythic?

It's really easy to detect a successful interrupt, you just set custom event, and set the event to 'Interrupt'. One of the args is sourcename, which is retrievable to set as a custom text field. There may also be a %n value for it, but I can't check right now.

Detecting a failed interrupt is harder (they missed the interrupt). You need to actually know the name of the spell and check spell_cast_success events, which I think is called "Cast Success" in the weakaura event dropdown - this is a pain, and I don't think you can do it without writing either one-per-class (if you don't care about doubleups overwriting existing kicks - eg brack) or one-per-player if you do (margok).

Depending on the encounter, you may need either - eg I use 'successful cast' on margok m, because it doesn't matter if they screwed up, you need to know if you are kicking next or not, but on brack, we have me kicking one interrupt, and all the other melee kick the other one, so I only care that one of them got it, not that 3-5 of them were slow (although I kinda care when they start getting too lazy to kick at all).

[Bryce]

Yeah, I knew it was spell_cast_success, just didn't know if there was an easy way to saying who got it. I honestly don't care who got it, just that it got interrupted, but I think it helps promote better play honestly.

Thanks for the post though.

I do, if you have one.

[Tercio]

Yup, we spread 6 melee, 3 on group 1 and 3 on group 2. Group 1 interrupts Decay #1 #3 #5 #7, Group 2 interrupts #2 #4 #6 #8.
This aura makes the guys on group 1 /say "G1 Interrupted" when they cut, and the same for group 2.

I like that Tercio, but it's just a generic G1 and G2, how would I make it say the actual person's name who interrupted decay? I'm the raid leader so would like to have it announced in raid warn who got it, etc.

Just announce on /rw is simple, the code is this:

function (_, _, token, time, who_serial, who_name, who_flags, _, alvo_serial, alvo_name, alvo_flags, _, spellid, spellname, spelltype, extraSpellID, extraSpellName, extraSchool)
    local decay_spell_id = 160013
    if(token == "SPELL_INTERRUPT" and extraSpellID == decay_spell_id) then
        SendChatMessage ("Decay Interrupted by: " .. who_name, "RAID_WARNING")
    end
end

If you want create an interrupt sequence, would be:

function (_, _, token, time, who_serial, who_name, who_flags, _, alvo_serial, alvo_name, alvo_flags, _, spellid, spellname, spelltype, extraSpellID, extraSpellName, extraSchool)

    local decay_spell_id = 160013

    if(token == "SPELL_INTERRUPT" and extraSpellID == decay_spell_id) then

        local next_player = "UNKNOWN"

        if (who_name == "PlayerName1") then
            next_player = "PlayerName2"
        elseif (who_name == "PlayerName2") then
            next_player = "PlayerName3"
        elseif (who_name == "PlayerName3") then
            next_player = "PlayerName1"
        end

        SendChatMessage ("Decay Interrupted by: " .. who_name .. " NEXT: " .. next_player, "RAID_WARNING")
    end
end

very interesting thanks for this

[Bryce]

Actually nevermind, just using the group 1 and 2 interrupts.

For your aura though Terico, do the interrupters have to be in group 1 and 2 in raid frames or what?

Yes, need to be in group 1 and 2 in the raid frame.

edit: the melees inside these groups are whom need to be using the aura.

thanks alot !
