Buff Broker manages your group & personal auras. Be it Blessings, Totems, Shouts, Horns, Marks, or Power Words; your Paladin, Priest, Shaman, Warrior, or Druid; Seals, armors, stances, forms, or fires; installing this addon will help match your best buffs for your group, and help keep those buffs active on you and your party.

Buff Broker is uniquely adaptable to your current party. It is friendly with other players; it will not poach their buffs (although it might poach their assignments); it will not get confused if your buffs are poached; it understands talented vs untalented buffs; it will properly suggest you upgrade from single to class/raid wide buffs. Finally, yes, it does work (with Live, the PTR, and Cataclysm Beta)

Thanks in advance for any feedback and support! If you ever have trouble, i suggest reverting to the last release build (aka won't contain a "B" in the version).

Other than that I like the minimalistic style. On that note, do you think you can add ButtonFacade support for the button? __________________ SQUEAK. --(The Death of Rats, Terry Pratchett, Soul Music)

toddimer A Deviate Faerie Dragon Forum posts: 18 File comments: 88 Uploads: 1	I've had 3 button facade requests; will look into it at some point, but "cosmetic" enhancements are pretty low on my request list right now. KnThrak: Suggestions are based on "Roles": you're either a Caster, Tank, Melee, or Melee hybrid (has mana bar). I've defined MP5 as the lowest priority paladin buff, for every role. This is not configurable, nor do I plan it to be at level 80. I might put some form of comparison weight to account for low level characters wanting MP5 over kings...but non-level-80 support is a ways off. antikrists: I'm planning to include self-buffs (mage armors, priest fires, warlock armors) after shouts & totems are working. In the meantime, I suggest any number of addons that just handle self buffs (I use power auras classic, personally).

It does work for my lvl 80 priest, but pretty sure didn't work for any of the lower lvl toons that have group buffs. I will get back to you on this. __________________

Thanks for the report griff! Lower level characters is not supported (and not handled). In the short-term, the button behavior is just "undefined".

I realize this could be helpful for low level dungeons/questing, and it's something I want to address. My immediate emphasis is on level 80 support though

Tested it and loving it so far Sadly I only have a priest on which I can test it (my paladin and shaman aren't 80 yet, bah!), but everything works fine! And thanks for the "frugal-mode", I'm always trying to save money, so that's very useful Thank you for making this addon!

Move support has been in place since version 1.0.1; left click the "BuffBroker" label once, and drag the frame to a new location. X,Y position has been a saved variable for a while now.

Which version are you using? Do you get any UI errors when you log in?

Add LDB (LibDataBroker) support? Was surprised when I saw this with its name and it has no LDB support

. And/or a way to change the size of the gigantic buff button? Its far too large here.

Also, bugs & problems. v1.2.3, WoW 3.3.3a live, USEnglish client/server, Level 40-something Paladin. Logging on (solo, not in a party), it correctly detects that the character is missing a blessing. But it fails to detect the lack of a seal at any time.

Go into the options panel, click the "Test:Suggestions" button and an error is thrown up:

Code:

["message"] = "BuffBroker-1.2.3\\BuffBroker.lua:751: attempt to compare nil with number\nBuffBroker-1.2.3\\BuffBroker.lua:1946: in function `TestSuggestions'\nBuffBroker-1.2.3\\BuffBroker.lua:568: in function <Interface\\AddOns\\BuffBroker\\BuffBroker.lua:568>\n(tail call): ?:\n<in C code>: ?\n<string>:\"safecall Dispatcher[3]\":9: in function <[string \"safecall Dispatcher[3]\"]:5>\n(tail call): ?:\nAceConfigDialog-3.0-45:796: in function <...nfig-3.0\\AceConfigDialog-3.0\\AceConfigDialog-3.0.lua:611>\n(tail call): ?:\n<in C code>: ?\n<string>:\"safecall Dispatcher[4]\":9: in function <[string \"safecall Dispatcher[4]\"]:5>\n(tail call): ?:\nAceGUI-3.0-30 (Ace3):326: in function `Fire'\nAce3\\AceGUI-3.0\\widgets\\AceGUIWidget-Button.lua:29: in function <...dOns\\Ace3\\AceGUI-3.0\\widgets\\AceGUIWidget-Button.lua:27>\n\n  ---",

Thanks for the report Darxon! Found in r64, fixed in r67. Looks like this wasn't a problem in 1.2.3; Pushed 1.2.4, which is just a bugfix release.
