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)

hehe it did not exist at the time I wrote my previous answer^^
I'll switch to it when i'll be back from holiday.
Decursive now uses LibBabble-Class-3.0
This mod, especially the mufs, is indispensible for me in arenas. As a retribution paladin things are pretty chaotic and staying on top of debuffs is nigh impossible for myself without this mod. Thank you.
Having said that, here is my wish list: having melee snares like wing clip and hamstring show up on the mufs w/ a different color from cleanseable debuffs, melee healing mitigators like mortal strike and aim shot as another, and having middle click and right click cast blessing of freedom and blessing of protection respectively for these debuff types.
I'm sorry but what you ask is beyond Decursive specifications... It would be very difficult to make it work and difficult to maintain due to localizations issues and changes/new instances and bosses abilities appearing at each patches.
What could be done though is a user debuff warning mechanism where you could define debuff names you want to be aware of, then Decursive would add a special status, such as a little colored triangle in the middle of the MUFs and then you will have to create a mouseover macro (using default Blizzard macro interface) and use it on the MUF of your choice...
It's not very difficult to implement this feature but it requires a day or two of coding :/ I'll add it on the todo list...
I've changed the RAR archive to a zip one, there is a bug with the Curse client and RAR archives... so the archive is 2 times bigger and not crypto-signed but at least it should work with the Curse client (We had the same problem with last release...)
If the download is still not up, just use this link:
http://www.2072productions.com/?to=decursive_dev
What is incompatible exactly?
You are using the Curse installer right?
can you download the zip archive directly? This seems to be a utf-8 header .toc problem...
I'm not getting an errors in game, it simply won't load and in the add ons tab in the character screen it shows it as incompatible, so I can't tell you what exactly is wrong with it.
could you send me your Decursive folder as the curse client installed it in a zip archive at this address (archarodim _AT_ teaser _DOT_ com) so I can see what's wrong exactlty? (I can't test the Curse client, it fails to log...)
Thanks
Is it possible to chance the scale of the buttons?
In a 5man group its sometimes better if the buttons are bigger
Take a look at the micro unit frames options :)
I'm being hit with an "incompatable" error :(
Also getting incompatable on ace and decursive, going to try going back to an older version. client version glitch perhaps? I haven't done any poking...
I just got the same error and the Ace File with it was incompatible also. I went and got the Ace2 version from their site and still Decursive is incompatible.
/dl'n previous version
I've just added a new public beta:
Changes from Decursive 2.0.4 to Decursive 2.1.0
* Important changes:
- Added an automatic self-diagnostic feature also available through the
/DCRDIAG command. This diagnostic is run when the add-on is loaded and check
if all required libraries are available and are up to date.
It also checks if all Decursive internal files are loaded correctly.
When the command /DCRDIAG is used it also tests if the library AceEvent is
functioning properly.
- New option: "Align MUF window to the right" (defaults to off)
If enabled, the MUFs will grow from right to left and the handle will be
moved automatically.
- New option: "Auto-Hide" (defaults to "Never")
Lets you choose if you want to auto-hide/show the MUF window when in party or raid.
- New option: "Colors" in the "Micro Unit Frame Settings" sub-menu
It is now possible to change all the MUFs colors.
- The cure order priorities are now saved per class
(This change resets your cure order priorities to default values)
* Minor changes:
- When a new MUF is created outside the screen, the MUF window is always
automatically moved so that all MUFs are visible.
- Spells handled by pets will no longer interrupt the player spells (when using
the MUFs)
- Workaround for polymorph spells name change in WoW 2.3 (Decursive was no
longer casting rank 1 of this spell...)
- Clarification in the different localization files.
Thx for the info Archarodim
Is there an option to hide the MUF's anchor?
You mean the handle that appears when you put your mouse pointer above the first MUF?
Hi, Id like to suggest one thing, it would be nice to be able to set the class colored borders' transparency independently. Personally what i wanted to do is set them to full opacity and the inside would be fully transparent. When a debuff is up then the middle lights up. Currently Its hard to see the class borders when we set the rest of the frame to a lower opacity.
It's already possible, look in the "advanced options" of the Micro Unit Frames :)
hey ^^ i found this addon very nice to use but i just wanted to ask is it okey to use atm ? i mean what does blizzard says about it ? Thanks
It's perfectly ok to use, this add-on doesn't break any rule at all.
The player still have to decide what spell to use on who (even if Decursive makes it very easy) it doesn't take the decision for you like it used to in pre 2.0 versions. So it fully respects Blizzard wishes.
Note that when Blizzard doesn't approve an add-on they simply disable it...
