Hello all, as i made a post about Magemanabar, i thought it might be a good idea to let you know that the new version of CombustionHelper is out, as many of you will respec fire very soon.

For the people who don't already know it, here is some infos.

The goal of this addon is to allow easy optimizing of the new version of the mage talent Combustion in Cataclysm. It tracks all relevant Dots on your target, your cooldown of Combustion and the range so you'll be able to use the talent with maximum effectiveness.

To summarize the new talent : it will add a new Dot on effect on your target which will be equal to the sum of all existing fire Dots.

With this addon, you'll know if one of your Dot is missing.

Use Interface Panel -> Addons for full config or /combustionhelper for bringing up directly the option panel. You can enable Bar timers and set color and width, you can now also adjust value for red zone timers

Featuring :
  • Automatic switch depending if combustion is in your spellbook or not and if frostfire glyph is present or not.
  • Impact mode. When combustion is on cd, it will check for dots on target and color the background and border in yellow to show when impact is up along with impact timer.
  • Autohide out of combat is off by default, use config panel to configure it. You can choose between no autohide, autohide out of combat or autohide when combustion is on cd.
  • Critical Mass/Shadow mastery tracker, it's on by default and you can disable/enable again with config panel.
  • Reset variables option because i know some of you like to bug the thing by switching options while in combat/autohide is running and stuff. If you bug it, just reset and log off so you start with a clean state.
  • Option to hide all config messages in chat.
  • Warning mode for early Living bomb refresh and missed LB.
  • Dot tick damage report mode. This is not the expected combustion damage report because of the complexity of ignite, rather an information about how much damage the last tick did so you know if it's powerful enough. The dot damage report total dot damage with a threshold you can set manually in the option panel to have the total damage line switch colors when crossing the specified limit. Threshold dot value now affect background color changes if enabled.
  • Pyroblast/Hot Streak report mode which will warn you when wasted an Hot Streak proc will letting it be refreshed before getting used and at end of combat will report with number of Pyro casted with number and percentage and Hot Streak gained.
  • Timer for Combustion Dot on target.
  • Multiple Living bomb tracking with impact support. You may observe a small difference between timer and real duration, it happen when the addon can't retrieve the correct info from your target, mouseover, focus or group/raid member's target. In this case it'll use predetermined timing but will still remove timer upon explosion. Support raid marker and current target symbol to multiple LB tracker (raid markers aren't supported yet when using impact).
  • Flamestrike tracker supporting regular flamestrike and blastwave Flamestrike.
  • Tooltips for option panel settings, no more obscure settings.
  • Ignite munching report, so you know how much damage you lost because of buggy mechanics.
  • Ignite damage predicter (BETA), instant info of you upcoming ignite damage (check option panel for info)

NEW : Graphical options so you can make it the way you want
NEW : Localisation in english, deutsch and French (feel free to report typos...)


As always on curse at http://www.curse.com/addons/wow/combustionhelper have fun.
