Cork: Enhancement Request: Paladin Blessings By Spec #788

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
I realize this one is probably straight out, but I just thought I'd float
it anyways.

Currently I run with a tree and a bear tank.  The tree needs Blessing of
Wisdom, and the tank gets Blessing of Might.  Currently Cork applies
whichever Blessing I've assigned to druids and calls it a day.  So both of
them end up with (in this case) Greater Blessing of Wisdom.  Then I have to
come back and overwrite the tank's GBoW with BoM.  

In a sense this could be considered to be a defect in WoW; it's very rarely
the case that it is appropriate to apply the same Greater Blessing across
an entire hybrid class.

Then again, it could be coded around.  ZOMGBuffs (vile bloated monster that
it is) "learns" the override the first time you cast it (i.e. "gosh, player
just cast BoM on player X, I will do that from now on.) 

I started to write a dissertation on how one could deduce a player's spec
and apply buffs from there on, but it got too obviously stupid and so I
deleted it.  I guess you could look at PowerType for druids and buff
accordingly, but this doesn't solve Paladins or Warriors, or even the
boomkin/tree dichotomy for that matter.

Maybe this is not a currently solvable problem...

Handling hybrid buffing is something I've not yet solved.  I want it to be 
simple 
(watching what you manually buff), but it would need some sort of config to 
undo the 
watching... and that's where it starts to get complicated.  Do you blanket the 
whole 
class with the greater then overwrite that with the special ones?  Do you just 
say 
fuck the greater and make the pally cast manually on every druid he comes 
across?  

So yea, until I have an elegant solution... bring 3 pallies and have them cast 
different greaters :)
