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.

Posted Jul 18, 2007I've implemented Cyclone support: http://www.2072productions.com/?to=decursive_dev
Tell me if it works as intended.
@shinnatsume:
Maybe... but this would kill an aspect of the game if Decursive thinks instead of you. Remember what Blizzard does when an addon is more 'clever' than the average player?

Posted Jul 23, 2007Got a chance to test Cyclone support this weekend. It certainly does appear to work as intended. The only thing that didn't seem to be working was the saving of my order settings. That is, Charm always seems to reset to 1 on my Druid and I keep having to flip it back to 3 each time I log in.

Posted Jul 31, 2007Apparently, I was using the default profile. Fiddling around with the profiles and keeping settings specific to that character/class appear to have solved my issue. Thanks!

Posted Jul 16, 2007Cool, thanks Arch. The exact english spelling of the Druid cyclone spell is Cyclone.

Posted Jul 14, 2007Yes that's right, the best solution is to be careful then, when you over the mouse on the MUFs, each debuff name is displayed in the tooltip above the MUFs...
I'm not sure which debuff is removed first when there are several debuffs of the same time, I think they are removed by order of appearance.

Posted Jul 14, 2007However, if you filter out UA, it will still show the colored box if there's another magical debuff in addition to UA on the target, right?
A target that has a warlock's UA will also almost always have corruption & siphon life in addition, which would still trigger the color change, as they're both magical, right?
As it's not predictable which debuff will be cleansed, you wouldn't want to cleanse and risk the UA.

Posted Jul 13, 2007Since mages can sheep mind-controlled targets to take them out of combat, why can't druids cyclone MC targets? I was hoping that feature might be able to be added into Decursive as the 1.5s casting time and 6-second duration are almost the perfect length to CC an MC'd target.

Posted Jul 11, 2007Here's a question -- is it possible to have the MUF have some graphical change (e.g. a black X over it) if the target is debuffed with Unstable Affliction, which you probably want to think twice before cleansing?

Posted Jul 2, 2007No, this is not needed for MUFs usage. You can delete Decursive's macro and put another instead, you'll just get an error message from Decursive when it'll attempt to create/update its macro.

Posted Jul 2, 2007Actually, Arch, was just going to ask a similar question. Is this macro part of how using the MUFs works, or is it just for mouseover curing on-screen?
All I use are the MUFs and don't have any need for anything else, so if it's not required for MUF usage, I could really use the macro space. :)
I've said it before, but again, thanks for all the hard work on this--I really don't think I could have as much fun playing without it.

Posted Jun 30, 2007How does work your own better designed one? (I'm interested)
For now there is no way to prevent Decursive from creating this macro, I'll add an option for that...

Posted Jun 30, 2007How do you disable the creation and maintaining of the Macro? I don't need Decursive making a macro since I have my own better designed one.
I tried disabling all the cure options, but that just creates a macro that displays text in the chatbox which is beyond useless.
