TTL, Sniper Training, aspect alert and shot prediction frames (from top to bottom, left to right)

FaceShooter Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

FaceShooter is an addon for hunters that tries to predict which shot should be used next based on a dynamically created priority list and shows it as an icon.

So far It also includes frames for

the estimated time-to-life of and dps on your current target (based on it´s healthloss over time)
switch alerts for Aspect of the Viper on low mana and Dragonhawk at high mana (you choose the threshold)
sniper training - icon turns green if the buff has just been refreshed, red if it´s going to fall off if you keep moving, normal in between and disappears if you´ve lost the buff.

Each of those frames as well as the main shot-recommendation frame are optional and can be turned on/off, scaled, moved etc.

DISCLAIMER: It´s still rather betaish and doesn´t include a GUI for configuration yet. You can access all options via /fs or /faceshooter. It also may contain bugs (especially for the BM priority list as I didn´t test that very much myself so far). For more information you can check the Useful Add-Ons/Mods thread at the elitist jerks forum hunter board. It does not work for non-hunter classes or below lvl 80.

CREDITS: I got my idea as well as parts of the original code from FaceMauler from Yukizawa of Aggramar which is basically the same addon for feral (cat) druids.

Change Log - FaceShooter

0.6.3b:
- player level check (lvl 80)
- fixed a memory leak
- changed TTL saving behavior
- talent specific frames (currently only sniper training) are automatically hidden if specced out of the talent
0.6.4b:
- fixed the hidden frames bug
0.6.5b:
- fixed some more performance issues
- fixed some rotating display bugs
0.7.2b
- complete priority list overhaul. Instead of a pre-determined static priority list for each talent tree FS now dynamically creates the list based on current real-time calculated shot damage
- complete (de)buff tracking system overhaul as required for above change. This should also have fixed the Serpent Sting bug.
0.7.3b
- back-to-back explosive shots 0.5s breaks should be working again
- changed TTL calculation yet again
- hopefully fixed the Serpent Sting bug once and for all
- FS doesn´t recommend Serpent Sting if another of your Stings is on target
0.7.4b
- Serpent Sting and Black Arrow damage now also factor in targets TTL
- Serpent Sting always gets priority over Serpent Sting if targets TTL is at least 3s
0.7.5b
- fixed a small bug that caused massive errormessages if you don´t have the Chimera Shot talent
0.7.6b
- fix for the fix fixing chimera shot errors *sigh*
0.7.7b2
- fixed a bug causing FS to recommend CS even on CD for targets with low TTL
- added the command /fs ttl practise to turn on a practise mode that sets the TTL to 1h for target dummies
0.7.8b
- lowered the DPS per AP ratio for HM from 0.6 to 0.5 and raised the ballmark raid dps on new targets - both changes should result in FS not recommanding HM quite as fast as it did before
- fixed a bug with Improved Steady Shot and changed FS so it doesn´t recommend AS or AimS while ISS is up to save the charge for CS.
0.7.9b
- Serpent Sting (with Noxious Stings) and Black Arrow priority now takes them enhancing other shots damage into account.
- icon will turn red when target is out of shot range
0.7.10b
- fixed a small bug causing Hunter's Mark never to be recommended in combat.
0.7.11b
- updated the TOC for 3.2.0 (couldn´t find any new incompatibilities)
- included a new option /fs shots ihm to turn off suggesting Hunter's Mark when in combat. This is turned off by default.
0.7.12b
- fixed some minor setup bugs (thx to wurmfood)
- updated serpent sting calculations to account for 2T9 set bonus
- added the option to set a minimum TTL for targets for FS to suggest HM with /fs shots minhm <seconds>
- added the option to turn off suggesting Arcane Shot completely with /fs shots ias

I don´t understand what you´re trying to tell me here. There´s no "picking up" of specific rotations anymore. FS calculates the power of each shot on the fly and priorizes them accordingly. So if you´ve got a ArP heavy build it should theoretically recommend casting Steady Shot over Arcane on its own.

Now that I finally made the decision to give up camping Loque cry I am speccing MM to start raiding again.. This is just the jumpstart I need to get my rotation down. Cant wait to test it out man, THANKS!! -ej-

As there´ve been some major changes to the core of the addon there may be some new bugs but overall it seems stable enough to post here again. From my limited testing it should work with every language again. If some of you folks with clients using other languages than english are getting errors - please let me know.

Kharthus A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 54 Uploads: 1	That sounds great if you can get it working. After more simulations and real testing I'm not sure the arcane/aimed priority is that important anyways. It's definitely not a big enough dps change either way to worry about right now.

I´m currently in the process of implementing the code to dynamically calculate the exact shot damage of every shot based on the players stats (and target debuffs) including Glyphs and Talents. The Goal will be to sort the priorities on the fly. This means I´m not inclined spending my time working on something that´d essentially be nothing more than a bandaid.

That beeing said I´m asking for your patience as I am still kind of new to wow AddOns and still need to learn how to do things so it´s taking a few more days.

About the serpent sting - yeah I realized that it behaves a bit strange from time to time. I can´t quite pinpoint the cause yet. Any pattern that´ll help me here would be greatly appreciated.

I think this happened when addon suggest fire serpent too early (2s), when you fire serpent and no better shot available, addon still show second serpent for cca 0.5s, maybe delay or lag.

Ok, this mirrors my experience, although I hadn't correlated when it was happening with what was going on in the fight. The night I'd noticed it the most, was when we killed Ignus & Kolo.

I'm SV. I didn't really notice a pattern as far as it happening on specific shots. When it happens, all frames dissapear, not just the shots frame. (I had Shots, Aspect & Sniper frames enabled)

I'll play with it at a dummy later and see if I can replicate outside of a raid.
