Originally posted by affix Just checking in to make sure you saw the previous post - any way to set Frost Ward to be absorbed before Ice Barrier, but still display Ice Barrier when both buffs are present? It's not something I can add without a fairly major re-write of the addon, so don't hold your breath!

I think what I'll do if/when I next do an update is allow the shield priorities to be user-configurable, since testing all the different combinations, especially where classes interact (e.g. a priest casts a shield on a mage who also has multiple shields up), is complex to say the least. Alternatively a definitive list of the priorit...

Originally posted by affix So I was wrong in the past - Frost/Fire ward are absorbed before Ice Barrier, not after. This is causing the addon to show Ice Barrier as being consumed, even if Frost Ward is taking damage, and making it inaccurate. Can you make the appropriate change? Note that we will still want the addon to show Ic...

Thanks for taking the trouble to do this, unfortunately it hasn't got me any nearer to finding the bug, as there's still no sign of any problem when running the English client. Sorry, I can't help you any further, My suspicion is that there is something odd in the handling of the combat message on the Russian client that is sent w...

Originally posted by richerich It doesn't seems to track Stoneclaw Totem shield (when glyphed). tried it on my shammy and nothing comes up. Hi, Sorry for the delay in replying, been on my summer hols :) See my messsage of 24th April. Unfortunately the addon doesn't support Stoneclaw totem shield at this time.

This appears to be a bug in the Russian localisation. Looking at the Russian tooltip on Wowhead, I think the fix is to change line 325 to: ={tip=2,slot=2,icon='Spell_Shadow_SacrificialShield',r=.5,g=.5,b=0}, and line 335 to: = { line="4",pattern="оглощает (%d+) е&#...

Thanks Metalchoir, just released a new version with your patch. (I didn't realise Sacred Shield duration was effected by talents - I'm a noob Pally!)

Re: Spanish - Warlock -
Posted By: frenchie
Glad you like the addon. I assume there must be some differences between the esES and esMX locales, though I have no idea what. In the absence of an addon author to check the esMX locale you could post screenshots of the tooltips for each of the relevant spells and I can check them as best I can. Regarding the error messages,...

Note that this shield is not affected by spellpower, absorbs 4340 points at level 80. See my me...

Originally posted by SpencerMC Is it me or am I the only one wishing these stacked. Like on top of each other - vertically. On my Mage, b/c it doesn't do it automatically, and I don't see an option to configure for it. If I have ice barrier + mana shield up at the same time, why dont i see both at once? Sure, once one dissipates, t...

Finally got my pre-made Mage onto the PTR today so able to do some proper testing. I now know what that problem is. For some reason the Glyph UI function returns nil (i.e. it says you have no glyphs!) immediately after zoning into/out of an instance or battleground. I've got a fix in the works, but will take a day or two to test it...

A bit of a breakthrough yesterday. I'll give some detail here as it may be useful to other addon developers. I think I discovered what may have been causing people problems in arenas and battlegrounds. During the preparation phase Blizz actually change the tooltips! The mana info disappears and everything else moves up one line. T...

Posted By: frenchie
Ok, I'm getting confused as to whether there are one or two different issues here. Firstly, ignoring arena for a second, is the calculation for Ice Barrier, with and without glyph, now correct in normal play? (It seems correct on my level 70 mage that doesn't have the glyph). As far as arena goes (which I don't play myself), I...

Posted By: frenchie
Re Ice barrier showing the wrong figure, could it be that dual-speccing is involved? I'm just wondering if you have the glyph of ice barrier in one spec and not the other, and are then swapping specs after the addon has calculated the max value to use? If so I need to look at the code that's supposed to re-check things after a spe...
