[BrM] Brewmaster Weak Auras

[Unholyground]

Huh? Do you even have a BrM? Not worthy enough response to list out all the things they benefit from having UI help to track you can get that idea by looking at the things the WA strings cover.

Most DK's use Blood Shield Tracker and rune mod's so it's not exactly Monk specific either.

I dunno I have tanked for over 5 years and I have never needed a mod to keep on top of buffs, but Monks do have a buttload lol, Still I am managing them pretty good but it could help.

[SurrealNight]

Well if you can do something simple to make your life easier why would you not do it? Sure I can parallel park but if I had one of those fancy luxury cars that do it for you I'd let it all day long.

None of those automate anything like going from a manual stick to automatic. They just give you the information needed cleanly so you know what gear to shift into next.

I have found these WeakAura's to be amazingly helpful. On my bear i didn't really have to worry about much, but with monk there are a lot of short cooldowns that NEED to be used almost ON CD. as well as keeping your shuffle up. According to WoL i went from around 60% uptime on shuffle to 89.8% uptime, just from using some weakauras to track when shuffle had a few seconds left on it and i needed up refresh. Sure it might not be nessesary for it, but having the info right there in front of you, just reminding you, means you don't have to think about that one thing at all, until that icon pops up with a friendly reminder.

While not thinking about shuffle uptime, you can focus on Guard uptime, or Zen Sphere, or any other CD's you really want to keep going. Or god forbid actually worrying about boss mechanics lol.

Mine look like shit compared to yours, but I've never been able to relate custom images to what they are for sadly so I have to use the WoW icons. Anyway to get nicer addons?

Heavy and Moderate staggers are the big icons up top. Made them big enough to warn me about stagger. "Hey dumbass you're taking way to much DoT damage, clear it" type thing.

I'll third the request for the code for this setup. I absolutely love this, it's exactly what I've been looking for for my little Brewmaster!

I've been pretty happy with this just for the sake of making it real obvious when you hit Mod/Heavy stagger.

This is a great thread. I'm a total newbie with this addon so it's very useful.

Two questions I hope someone can answer:
Does Monk have any Blizzard Power Auras? If so, what are they/when do they show up?
Also (and sorry for the total newb question), is there a way to turn off the Blizzard native Power Auras?

Thanks!

I was able to define a contition for WA and Stagger. I'll leave my String here to anyone who finds it usefull aswell.

The ammount of Stagger, bar color, time remaining and icon are fully shown on this export:


Comments are appreciated.

I love you xxxxx

BrM only have one ability that reacts to something and that is Touch of Death when it becomes available, and even then it's just the hotkey lighting up. By default we have no aura's that surround the character for any reason.

Yes you can turn off the Blizz PA's but I'm drawing a blank exactly where the option is will have to look through the UI later. For Monk it shouldn't be an issue. Actually our lack of reactive UI feedback are why WA's are such a big help, even stagger is just represented by a dot debuff by default.

Not entirely true, there's a graphic for when Stagger hits heavy.

Yeah, as said above, I had actually seen a screenshot of what looked like some kind of Blizz PA from Stagger, but I've never seen it myself (possibly because I've yet to get to the level of stagger required for it to show up?). But it may have been custom so I'm not really sure.

Anyway, thanks for your feedback.

I cant even tell how much better my tanking got when i now have weakauras for stagger, shuffle, eb and guard. Thanks all for the awesome scripts.

[sporkisfaster]

Figured I would contribute my hard work!! I admit I did not come up with the stagger aura, but everything else is mine! Anyone come up with cool trackers?

Note: Load patterns need to be adjusted if you want to use any of these auras. Put your character name where it says Kungju (or just remove it completly). Also, I have 1 custom sound file, so that may need to be adjusted as well.

Does everyone recommend these above or the ones on this page:

Also, how can you edit features of WA in case you don't like the preset settings of an imported aura? Say for example if it disappears when not in combat or something like that.

My suggestion, so take it for what it's worth. Use either of those setups. Once you become comfortable with Weak Auras, setup your own.

BUT i need some help of you guys:
i want to display the amount that is staggered, but i can't make it to show up any solutions would be appreciated!

Well, I guess I'm done with my WA's for now. Only thing that I couldn't get to work was the amount Staggered shown up (still need your help guys )

Here's a Screen followed by the Aura strings if you're interested:

I'm using this setup and loving it, just converted over to weak auras from power auras, the one thing that I have added is a Guard Tracker to show me when I have Guard up (I find it important to know so I can call for healer CD's if it's down and I don't have EB stacks available) one thing that I can't seem to achieve is getting the aura to show the value of the remaining Guard, is this possible and can anyone tell me how to do this as I have tried and failed, I basically just altered the Stagger tracker in the attempt to get it to replicate the value but with no success.

Modified this from a Vengeance one someone posted.

Just a text one, easy to modify of course.

My final Stagger update

Simple Stagger bar, checks for color, Stagger amount, time remaining and Icon. Repositioned the bar in the middle of the screen since many ppl reported they could not see the bar in their UI.
