Scorchio! 2

Table of Contents

This project is abandoned and its default file will likely not work with the most recent version of World of Warcraft. Whether this project is out of date or its author has marked it as abandoned, this project is no longer maintained.

Note: as of Jan 2021, Scorchio has been flagged as abandoned due to the original author not carrying over her account to the new Overwolf system. Overwolf refuses to undo this. It isn't possible to release new versions while it's flagged as abandoned - they never get packaged. The original author flagged the project as "All Rights Reserved", so I'm not sure whether Overwolf would allow me to create a new forked version, even if I wanted to. Ultimately, the best path for everyone is probably to move on from Scorchio and build what you need around something like WeakAuras or TellMeWhen. -ywfn666

Scorchio2 is an addon for Mages that tracks Living Bomb, Nether Tempest, Ignite, Slow, Flamestrike (Flame Patch and snare), and Polymorph on multiple mobs, and can give you warnings and notifications when the debuffs need reapplying, or have expired completely. Scorchio can also provide bars for personal buffs/procs/summons: Clearcasting, Heating Up, Hot Streak!, Brain Freeze, Fingers of Frost, Combustion, Icy Veins, Arcane Power, Rune of Power, and Mirror Image. Up to three anchors are available for use (targeted, non-targeted, and buffs), and the sort order for bars within each anchor is customizable.

Use /scorchio2, or Blizzard's Addons configuration window to configure Scorchio2.

Localization Help Needed!

Lots of work has gone into translation, but there's still some left to do. Localizations are easy to submit on the WowAce Localization Page, and help many users. Please help with this if you're able. And thanks to everyone who's helped so far!

Good advice, thank you. I've changed things to use "targeted"/"nontargeted". This will reset any changes you've made to the old "focused"/"nonfocused" anchors yesterday, but it's a beta - we expect that!

Hi Ennuilg,
I like a lot your work, thank you for this nice addon. I have to say that this new beta version is less intuitive than previous one: it's a nice idea to split bars depending on target or tracking type, but it now is more difficult for me to see if a living bomb is on my current target or another one, for instance. I choosed to go back to version 1.0.4, where bars are on a unique anchor and they fade when are not tracking debuffs on my current target. I set all buffs and debuffs to be shown in the buffs bar but still miss the option to fade those not on my target.
I hope this comment will help somehow.

Thanks for the feedback. I'll add the option to set the alpha for each bar focused and non-focused, so you can choose how you want things displayed. Then, for Living Bomb (in your example) you can set both focused and non-focused anchors to "Focused", but change the alphas so non-focused LBs appear dimmed. You'll still be able to send other bars, like TtW, to the "Non-focused" anchor.

Hi. Can you add option to turn off focused and non-focues anchors?
So it would work like previous version.

I did, but it still shows water elemental on non-focus anchor.

OK, that's a bug. I'm guessing you cast Water Elemental out-of-combat and I've overlooked something in that part of the code. Will get that fixed in beta 2.

v1.1.0 beta 1 of Scorchio! 2 was just committed.

This brings multiple anchors to Scorchio! 2. For each bar, you can now say to which of three (independently placeable and configurable) anchors it attaches to when it belongs to your current target, and also when it belongs to a mob that isn't your target. There is also a fourth virtual anchor, called "None" - bars attached to this anchor will not be shown.

So, for instance, if you want to show only the bars for your target set them to attach to the "Focused" anchor when they are focused, and the "None" anchor when they are non-focused. Alternatively, set them to attach to the "Non-Focused" anchor and move that to the side of your screen to keep an eye on them but get them out of the way of the main action.

This is a beta feature. Please let me know how it works for you. Thanks!

Is there a way to customize the bars? I love the addon, but I'm not sure if it's possible to move the bars around etc... If there isn't, would you be willing to integrate this feature. It gets annoying if you're in a raid with a lot of other mages and your screen gets filled with notifications of Torment the Weak and such.

Open the Blizzard configuration window, or type /scorchio2. You can move the bars by toggling the anchors there, and every type of bar has plenty of individual configuration available.

I'm really looking forward to Scorchio 1.5. Could you give us any indication on its release?

Finally, do you think that it would be possible to add Raid Targets onto scorchio bars for spells such as Polymorph, Living Bomb and Scorch which would prove useful when there are multiple targets with the same name?

Thanks in advance and for all your hard work on undoubtedly the best mage add-on around. :P

I'm hoping to have a preview-alpha version ready pretty soon. I don't get as much time to support Scorchio! 2 as I'd like, so I have to try and snatch development time where I can!

Raid Icons were part of the first incarnation of Scorchio! and are somewhere on the roadmap for reimplementation. But, see above...

Open the Blizzard configuration panel and it's in there.

Alternatively, /scorchio or /scorchio2 will do it.

Could you add a functionality to alert us when mirror image, water elemental and icy veins are off cooldowns? That would be great!

And another to let us know that the target does not have Living Bomb and Scorch (I'm not talking about renewing debuff, I'm talking about a mob that does not have the debuff at all).

Thanks in advance

If there's no bar, there's no debuff... Adding bars to show there was no debuff would just be confusing.

There might be a possibility of adding things like this (and cooldowns) in a later development cycle, once the upcoming changes in v1.5 are bedded in. (Some of those changes may make it easier and less confusing.)

No, bar needed =). SOmething like this tiny addon does:
http://www.wowinterface.com/downloads/info12418-AlarmHUDmage.html
(unfortunately it stopped developing)

Just a little phrase or something. Most of the addons make the error of poping a lot of bars and icons. Becoming confusing in the process.

PS: Gratz on Scorchio! ;)

Hi there,

First, thanks for a great addon.

With the new T8 4 piece bonus, Hot Streak may not be consumed when fired. Is there a way for the addon to let me know in a really obvious way if Hot Streak is not consumed so I can get another instant Pyroblast?

Thanks!

At the moment, there's no easy way of doing this - the bar remains onscreen and that's all. I'd have to code a special case which looked for a successful cast of Pyro, then checked whether the buff was still active and (for instance) replaying the Buff sound.

I may look at it for v1.5, if it doesn't add too much overhead.
