Spam filter not working correctly with Dual wield attacks

[Gorexar]

Hello, i was trying out this edit for XCT and the first thing i noticed was it has an issue with counting Attacks made with an offhand into the spam filter, such as Whirlwind, Bladestorm, as well as Raging blow when i custom added it to the spam filter, it does however work perfectly fine for these abilities if you are Not dual wielding, otherwise you get X lines of Whirlwind hits, followed by whirlwind hit for #####x15 same thing goes for bladestorm and RB bladestorm has insane spam, 10-30 lines of single instances of damage, followed up by #####X26

also i noticed the spam filter, has roughly a 2.5-5 second delay on displaying the damage

Hey Gorexar,

Which xCT+ branch are you using?

• Master (Live) - Version 2.5.3
• Beta-Config (Beta) - Version 3.0.0 beta 5

Also, make sure you are adding both the Main-Hand spell ID and the Off-Hand spell ID (most abilities have two different spell IDs, one for each hand). Both versions of xCT+ do not have the ability to merge different spell ID's together, meaning the main-hand cannot be merged with the off-hand. Hopefully, I will be updating xCT+ version 3 to handle this in the future.

i'm using 2.5.3 release, ill find the offhand spell id's and add them in to reduce the massive spam from bladestorm and whirlwind, on a side note is there a reason for the 3-5 second delay in calculating the damage of an AOE attack, such as Heroic leap?

PS looking forward to version 3, its a great addon.

Right. The 3 second delay is caused by the way the merger works. (This is exactly how the original xCT worked):

• Lets say 1 Spam hit happened
• We then start a timer for 3 seconds
• We total all the spells that happen in those 3 seconds
• At the end of the 3 seconds, we show all the hits (in this case, just the one)

This is actually a great way to do it for DoTs since they are not very important. This is however a horrible way to do it for instant AoE spells like Swipe and Heroic Leap. That is why, in version 3, you will be able to tell xCT+ a maximum merge time. So that Heroic Leap gets merged faster than a DoT. Keep your fingers crossed. I am almost done with version 3.

thanks for the explanation, ill snag version 3 as soon as it is out!
