Introduction
This is an addon for the game "World of Warcraft". Therefore, if you don't have the game it's probably a little bit of a waste of time. It provides several features which are specific to the priest class, assisting in targetting, announcing what you are doing to other players, and providing certain reminders.
It used to be called "AyreHeal", but I thought of a better name! My priest character is "Ayresome" on the "Azsune" server.
Features
The addon has the following functionality:
Announce Party Heals
Any heals you perform on a member of the party will be announced to the partychat channel. You can choose which heals to report, or choose not to report any.
Whisper Heals
When you perform a heal on a non-party player, it notifies the target of the upcoming heal. You can choose which heals to report, or choose not to report any.
Buff Expiry
When your own buffs expire, you will be informed of the fact in the default chat window.
Self-casting
It is possible for you to target certain spells on yourself by default, if an enemy is targetted when you cast them.
The following spells are supported in this version:
Healing/Friendly Spells
Heal, Lesser Heal, Flash Heal, Greater Heal, Prayer of Healing, any bandage.
Buff Spells
Inner Fire, Power Word:Fortitude, Shadow Protection.
Screenshots
Getting Started
Download the package and extract it to your WorldOfWarcraft\Interface\AddOns directory. Start the game and enable the addon.
Use the command "/priesttools options" to view the options dialogue, where you can customise which spells you want to announce, and under what circumstances, and enable or disable the targetting.
You can also use "/priesttools help" for a short help text ingame.
Announcing Heals
This will happen automatically, as long as you have not disabled that particular spell. Just cast the spells in the ordinary way.
The announcement happens when you begin to cast the spell.
Smart Targetting
This feature assesses whether the current target is a friendly or enemy. If it's a friendly, nothing happens and the spell is cast as normal. If it's an enemy, it casts the spell on yourself, and then retargets. This is extremely useful for soloing.
This needs some work on your part to get working. Each spell you want to enable for smart targetting needs a short macro around it. You then assign the macro to the toolbar in place of the spell.
The command "/priesttools target" assesses the current target and retargets if necessary. "/priesttools u" restores the previous target if this is necessary.
A sample macro looks like this:
/priesttools t
/script CastSpellByName("Heal(Rank 4)");
/priesttools u
You simply need to change the name of the spell, and copy the macro for each spell you are using.

Doesn't Work
Written by Evangelista on 2006-08-07 13:36:26
I downloaded this the other day and as great as it should be, I wasn't actually able to use my action buttons while I had the mod loaded. No attack, no wand, no heal... nothing worked! I thought my keyboard was broken or something but soon realized that was not the case because clicking on the action buttons didn't work either. A new updated version would be great! But until then, I wouldn't recommend downloading it. |
