Re: Uber Pally Damage

You know Manny? That's cheating. :P Give us screenshots of your UI on a screen resolution some of the rest of us use. Not that huge monstrosity you've got.

Manny, are you completely manual on the pally duties as well or do you have any addons that you recommend?

I tried the HolyHope last night and it is ok, tho, with very little work you can do the same thing with Flexbar and have more flexibility. It takes two clicks to bless someone, which is not big deal I suppose; however, I do enjoy setting up blessings by class or individual and just spamming the macro key when they expire as you can do with Paladin Asistant or Click Heal or Benecast.

The experiment continues.

I'm the most manual Pally ever. I'm no good with scripting, and i can't stand some peoples set ups. *cough* Luna*cough*

the only addons I use (that have anything to do with being a paladin) are the buff timer in CT-mod, (Always Buff yourself first. then wait thirty seconds... THAT way, when you get your 30 second warning, you know you have 1 minute to buff everybody else. <---- PAY ATTENTION TO THAT STATEMENT :P

I used to use Buff ahoy, but When the Greater blessings came out, Buff ahoy become kinda pointless. I'll just manually buff One person of each class, and wait 15 minutes, and do it again. (I keep buff ahoy running for when i'm grouped with lower level people though)

I have been considering looking for a flexbar set up that would make my Decursive button pop up somewhere useful whenever I need it, but I can't bring myself to browse through the forums to find it. (I'd also really enjoy a flexbar set up that Makes my Judgement button pop up somewhere useful (like, in the area of the mob i'm fighting) after I cast a seal on myself.

But for now, my set up works quite nicely for me.

And Tarenth, I'll do just that. As i said, I WAS running on a 17 inch monitor up until Two days ago... My screen was... messier, but still in the same basic layout. (minus the party frame) I'll screen shot that tonight. but it'll suck getting out of my 1680 by whatever (wide) Res that i'm in now. it's soo nice.

So very.. very nice.

Just a shameless plug on my UI (using flexbar and quite active on their forums)...

I did spend hours on end in the early stages. I could help some if interested to lessen the learning curve.

Crebis, have you ever heard yourself talk about your mods?

remember that night a while ago? when you were telling me about your mods... you thought i was sounding bored? I wasn't bored.

you only blew my freaking mind

but yeah, if you ever have a few minutes, i've got some questions to ask

Definately shrink your boxes a bit. Fri uses ALL of his buttons, and I"m almost ready to play with flexbar to gain a few more, but his screen is not nearly as cluttered as yours. Stop bye sometime and I'll show you what I did to make it more managable.

I heard about a mage mod I might try too, that puts a button around the minimap containing all of the mage ports. That's 6 more buttons.

These are pretty easy to do, depending on how complex you want to make the conditions upon which they appear.

I have some lines I used for similar around somewhere. I'll try to dig them out.

However, my FlexBar resume is no where NEAR as lengthy as Orion's, lol.

So, I'm currently using:

Paladin Assistant for a pseudo-smart one-key bind for healing and another key for blessing my party by class, which is usually just me and Apo. I could code similar, but why bother if someone else already has. I have layed out all the heal spells in an array of buttons for future manual use, but at this time my play just isn't that complicated.

I have kept Click Heal because when I spaz out on the keys, hey...it happens, I can click on the appropriate unit frame and heal or bless.

I'm using HolyHope, as recommended, for the Seals and Judgement layout. This dupes up a little on some flexbar stuff I have especially the Judgement button that pops up 20 seconds into a seal and reminds me to Judge...but oh well. I'm not using it for blessings. I dig the HoW button that pops up on Mob at or below 20%...but that also dupes up a flexbar button I coded.

Decursive is on a keybind, so that's not an issue. I do have a flexbutton that pops up in addition to the sound to alert me that someone's need's decursing, but that as well is not such a big deal.

I'm weak on using Blessing of Freedom in a timely fashion to keep Apo mobile when a Mob tries to get fancy with him. That is one thing I definately need to improve on, even if it is just coding a flex button to show up when "party1" is immobilized to be a short term fix.

I'm also not solid on shielding/BoP etc...when someone, even myself, gets beyond the point of no return.

Just a quick update. Hope everyone is well.
