Decursive key benefits
Ease of use:
- Decursive supports all classes with cleansing abilities and configures itself automatically, it works straight out of the box, no configuration is required.
- Intuitive interface and detailed options, Decursive is suitable for simple usage and power users.
Control what and who you want to dispel:
- Easily Filter out afflictions you don't want to cure or that are useless to remove by class (some are pre-configured). (Such as afflictions affecting mana on non-mana classes, etc...).
- Choose between what you can dispel (magic, curses, poison, diseases, charms) choosing their priority. (this allows you to share the cleansing work with other players effectively)
- Prioritize or exclude members. (keep players, classes, or raid groups in a specific order to cleanse them in order of importance)
Manage Mind controlled units:
- If you are a Mage, a Druid or a Shaman you can Polymorph/Cyclone/Hex mind-controlled players.
- In any case Decursive will allow you to target mind controlled units easily.
- Decursive supports magic charming affect removal for Shamans (Purge and Hex), Priests (Dispel Magic), Hunters (Tranquilizing Shot), and Warlocks (Fellhunter and Doomguards spells).
Don't waste time:
- Your cleansing spell Cooldown is displayed to maximize your dispel speed.
- An automatic blacklist will prevent you from loosing time on players who can't be dispelled. (player 'out of line of sight' for example).
- Decursive choose a logical cleansing order depending on your current position in the raid. (preventing dispel concurrence between players and thus 'nothing to dispel' messages)
React faster:
- Visual and/or auditive alerts when someone needs your attention and can be dispelled.
- Special sound alert when Unstable Affliction is detected and you're about to dispel it.
- Visual and auditive alert when your dispel attempts are resisted or fail.
Integration in any interface:
- Decursive is designed to save screen real estate and to be forgotten when not needed.
- Many options allow you to customize Decursive appearance and interface behavior.
- All Decursive alert colors can be modified making it suitable for color-blind people.
Highly optimized and effective coding:
- Decursive was developed with memory and CPU usage in mind, installing Decursive won't affect your frame rate even in the worst battle conditions.
- Bug free: bugs are not tolerated in Decursive.
In brief, what you get with Decursive is effectiveness, a player using Decursive will always dispel faster than other players.

Decursive is dedicated to the memory of Bertrand Sense known as Glorfindal on the European server Les Sentinelles. He was the raid leader of my guild (Horizon)

Why don't you use the priority list to put all your favorite raid members at the top? Normally there is a tool-tip that indicates the name and afflictions corresponding to each MUF when you mouse over them (there is an option to disable it though).
Hey. I was just wondering... I get a secound playertab up, with health, mana, exp etc, like the playertab we all have, but it's almost at the middle of the screen, and realy annoying.. it comes when i press ctrl+middle botton (well.. not sure if that is the shortcut...) on the remove curse/poison (druid), how ever.. i can't find out how to remove that playertab.. anyone know?
Decursive dosen't create such player tab, CTRL+MIDLLE CLICK just set your focus target (like the /focus command) So it must be another add-on...
Decursive isn't remembering curing options per-character. I log onto my druid, clean install of decursive. Curing order is curse, then poison, then charm. I log onto my mage, curing order is curse, then charm. I log back onto my druid and curing order is now curse, then charm, then poison - poison & charm changed positions.
I know I can "fix" this with profiles, but I don't want separate profiles, as all of my configuration is the same between characters - except for curing options. Which should be set up per class.
(note that after installing this update your priorities will be reset to default) The dev version is available here : http://www.2072productions.com/?to=decursive_dev
Looks to be fixed. Thanks.
I haven't used this mod in quite sometime since I've been playing a rogue, however I went back to playing my druid and I dl'd the mod, only options I changed was for it not to show the "grid" ui part and I'm having trouble getting it to cure properly.
I'm in the process of leveling/questing and while doing so it will not cure myself when I press the button I set up under the macro settings section of the drop down window.
I've tried adding myself to the priority list, tried clearing the priority list and it does nothing each time. Is there some option i'm not setting? or am I going about the macro the incorrect way?
Thank you for your time.
I believe i found my problem...from what I've read/heard decursive (or any mod) can't target players any longer. So i guess pressing a button like the old days and having it remove the curse/poison will no longer work.
If this is inaccurate please let me know.
This is accurate, you have to use Decursive's grid to cure (no need to target) the player represented by each litle square (Micro Unit Frame)
First I'd like to say that I love the addon and appreciate you keeping it up to date, but I am having a problem with it.
In arena's I sometimes encounter situations where I need to decurse very frequently and decursive will cause my fps to come to a halt, pretty much freezing my screen for a few seconds. I have since turned down all of my settings and although the problem has improved somewhat I am still getting 1 to 2 second lockups from time to time. I'd love to get some feedback on what might be causing this and how it could possibly be fixed. Once again thanks for the addon and any help to fix this problem ;)
This is probably not Decursive that causes those lockups. Can you check with only Decursive ?
Can you tell me exactly when those lockups happen and how many persons are in your group ?
I get these little lockups too but not just on arenas. No matter where I am or what I am doing, Decursive memory usage rockets up to around 36-50mb. Once the memory usage gets to those values, I start having those little lockups. Strangely enough, it only happens on mage (priest and druid work fine with exactly the same settings). I've tried deleting wtf files and addon to a fresh start but the same problem persists. It might be that some other addon is causing this issue but, why does it only happen on mage only then? (other characters use the same addons). Sure enough, this has me quite baffled.
Can you tell me what you did exactly so I can guide others in the same situation?
The Holy fire in the maiden of virtue fight in Kara is not being picked up at all with my decursive. It works perfectly in everyother situation (bg's, arena, other raid bosses). Is there something I'm not setting up correctly?
Thanks for your help
Is the debuff picked up if you put your mouse pointer over the MUF representing the unit?
Is the unit affected by other debuffs at the same time?
Can you check if the spell Holy Fire is not in your custom debuff exception list (in the debuff filtering options)?
thanks
well it seems that you have an addon conflict... Decursive is working perfectly fine for me and I also use WoW 2.3...
What you describe makes me think that AceEvent is no longer working on your installation...
Please update ALL the add-ons that are using Ace libraries using jWoWupdater : http://code.google.com/p/jwowupdater/
I think I'll add some diagnostic check in futur versions since it seems to be a recurent problem.
Also turn on lua error display this might help to diagnose the problem.
thanks
I am having issues with decursive since the newest patch 2.3. My current version of decursive is 2.0.4 Zip engish version.
When I get into a raid or group it does not update to show everyone (all the blocks). I have to manually right click on decursive and "reset my profile", then "reset options to defults" to update to show all the blocks everytime I get into new group or raid.
I am also encountering that it does not show when someone is cursed, diseased or poisoned. I have to hover over the block in order for it to highlight to red.
I do not show an updated decurive on this website for the newest patch 2.3. Is there an update for decursive that is planned for the rest of the patch on 11/27? So should I just wait. I cannot raid with out it, decursive saves so much time.

@Grumpt:
did it only happen once?
What is your WoW client language?
Can you verify that Decursive does detect your dispel ability and that this ability is enabled in Decursive curing options?
Clicking on the correct MUF should have cast the spell even if Decursive did not lit the MUF... Clicking on a MUF will always cast the spell bound to the mouse button you used, the only reason that could prevent this to happen is that Decursive couldn't program the MUFs with your curing spells because it couldn't identify them...
A last question, did your group changed during the fight?
thanks.
