About Bitten's SpellFlash: Shaman

This module flashes suggested spells for all three Shaman specs. You can find *lots* more information on its website.

If you download using the Curse Client it will come with everything you need. If you download your addons manually, you must also get SpellFlash.

Please see the FAQ before posting a question. If that doesn't address your issue, or you have a suggestion to improve this addon, please either leave a comment or create a ticket.

Bitten's SpellFlash modules replace Blizzard's default proc highlighting to flash the button you should press next to achieve maximum dps on a boss fight. Or if you are a tank, to maximize your survivability. For healers, they are just slightly smarter proc highlighters. Dps modules follow or are similar to priority schemes found in SimulationCraft, Icy Veins, and/or Elitist Jerks. Sometimes you have to be smarter than SpellFlash, e.g. when saving a cooldown for a specific boss mechanic, but in general following the recommendations will improve most people's performance.

The descriptions of each rotation moved to the website for Bitten's SpellFlash.

Version 3.7.1

  • All: Now flashes food buffs.
  • All: Now flashes Purge.

Version 3.7.0

Updated for patch 5.3:

  • Elemental: Changed the conditions for Ancestral Swiftness, since it's fine to use on Lava Burst now that it has a 2 second cast time.
  • Elemental & Enhancement: Adjusted the flashing while moving to take into account that Lightning Bolt can always be cast.
  • Enhancement: Elemental Blast waits for at least 1 stack of Maelstrom Weapon, and turns into an optional flash while you are moving.

Version 3.6.0

  • Elemental: Added an AoE rotation.
  • Elemental: Flame Shock can now flash during Ascendance.
  • Elemental: Lava Burst can now flash when Flame Shock is not up if Flame Shock is on cooldown.
  • Elemental: Lava Burst flashes small and green at the same time that Ascendance flashes (single target), to remind you that will be next if you press Ascendance.
  • Elemental: Added suggested flashing for when you are moving.
  • Elemental: Thunderstorm can now flash during combat, in case you are weaving in Chain Lightnings for 2-target AoE.

Version 3.5.1

  • Enhancement: Fix for an occasional Lua error.

Version 3.5.0

  • Enhancement: Updated the rotation, including a couple adjustments when you have T15 set bonuses.
  • All: Cleaned up Ascendance flashing (e.g. it no longer flashes while it is already up).

Version 3.4.3

NOTE: This version includes a new version of Bitten's SpellFlash Library that I tried to test well, but if you find any issues please let me know right away.

Version 3.4.2

  • Enhancement: Bugfix - I believe there was probably an issue with Stormblast flashing, which this should fix.

Version 3.4.1

NOTE: Your options will be reset when you upgrade to this version.

  • Repackaging so that Bitten's SpellFlash Library is included with the addon, instead of downloaded separately.
  • Several other internal changes.
  • Elemental: Now properly detects that the cooldown on Lava Burst is not going to trigger if Lava Surge is up.
  • Elemental & Enhancement: Flashes Healing Surge when solo and you could use the heal.
  • Restoration: Flashes Lightning Bolt if you have the Glyph of Telluric Currents, under 95% mana, and everyone in range has at least 90% health.
  • All: Flashes Water Walking when you are swimming.

Version 3.3.1

  • All: Fixed a recent error in the German translation that caused weapon buffs to continuously flash.
  • All: Added Spanish translations for weapon buffs so they hopefully flash correctly.

Version 3.3.0

  • Restoration: Added some flashing for Restoration.

Version 3.2.1

  • Making the "Out of Date" status go away. Please report any real issues w/ the new patch.

Version 3.2.0

  • Elemental: Prioritize Lava Burst above Flame Shock.
  • Elemental: Do not flash Elemental Mastery during Bloodlust.
  • Elemental: Do not flash Flame Shock during Ascendance.
  • Elemental: Bugfix - flash Ascendance when Lava Burst is on cooldown, instead of when it is not.

Version 3.1.0 beta

  • All: Updated rotations to match Simulationcraft defaults.
  • All: Added Ascendance and level 90 talents.
  • All: Updated translations for Brazilian Portuguese (thanks Kasth!).

Version 3.0.0

  • Enhancement: added an Enhancement rotation for 5.0.4.
  • All: No longer reported as "Out of Date" in 5.0.4.

Version 2.2.0

  • Added an Elemental rotation for MoP.

Version 2.1.6

  • Enhancement: Windfury Weapon should work on a German client now. Thanks booni89!

Version 2.1.5

  • Elemental: Bugfix - Flame Shock was not working correctly on non-English clients.

Version 2.1.4

  • All: FaStEr96 added a Russion localization. Thanks!
  • All: dayv_d added a Traditional Chinese localization. Thanks!

Version 2.1.3

  • Elemental: Lightning shield will now flash at 1 minute remaining out of combat, down from 5. If you have more than 3 stacks, it waits until 15 seconds.
  • Elemental: Thunderstorm will now flash at under 92% mana out of combat, down from 100%.
  • Restoration: Earth Shield now flashes at 2 minutes out of combat, down from 5.

Version 2.1.2

  • Taking out of beta.

Version 2.1.1 beta

This beta release uses Bitten's SpellFlash Library version 3. If you update you will also need to update any of your other Bitten's SpellFlash modules, which may also be in beta.

  • Elemental: Lava Burst now flashes in anticipation of the Flame Shock debuff if you just cast it, instead of waiting for the actually debuff to appear.
  • Enhancement: Unleash Elements was probably broken - or at least not perfect - on non-English clients.

Version 2.1.0

  • Elemental: Tighter timing for refreshing Flame Shock.
  • Elemental: Spends a 7-stack of Fulmination a little sooner when Flame Shock will be falling off soon.
  • Enhancement: No longer flashes Lightning Bolt at 4 stacks while you are moving.

Version 2.0.0

  • Enhancement: Added an Enhancement rotation!
  • All: Flashes Wind Shear.

    After installing this addon I am noticing after a few moments of utilizing it's flashing for spells to use I am being sent straight to the desktop. With access memory violation errors sometime showing termination and other times not.

  • #86

    I see you openned a tag for this issue w/ BigRedBrent (the author of SpellFlash itself, not Bitten's Modules).  That is the right thing to do.  I have no idea how that could happen.

    I had same issue and installed BittensSpellFlashLibrary-3.21.1.zip and it works like a champ but if i use client it no workie, Thanks

  • #84

    It should be working normally now.  No need to download the new library version - it comes packaged with the modules now.

    Author of Bitten's SpellFlash.

  • #81

    with the update this one is triggering some errors and no longer working. Worked before the update to the Spellflash Lib

     

     

  • #82

    Yes, the lib has been updated for 5.2 but I have not yet gotten to this module.  As it says on the lib page (sorry haven't updated descriptions here or other places yet) you no longer need to download (or update) the library. If you downgrade to the older library, it may work again?  (Haven't tried it since the patch.)

    <Edit:> It should be working normally now.

    Hi Xemnosyst,

    it's an English client Innocent

  • #80

    Just to make sure: are you sure you are always putting Windfury on the main hand and Flametongue on the off hand?  If you reverse those, they will continue flashing.

    Ok, that worked, I reverted the install back to 3.2.1, right clicked the weap buffs to remove them, left clicked to reinstate Flametongue & Windfury weap buff and it worked fine and the constant "blinking" prompt for these weap buffs ceased.

    So the problem seems to be with one of the updates between 3.2.1 - 3.3.1, sorry I can't be more helpful Embarassed

    What language does your client use?  (English?  German?  Spannish?  etc.)

    Author of Bitten's SpellFlash.

  • #75

    Arghhhh spoke too soon .... maybe I jinxed something but the constant blinking for  Flametongue & Windfury weap buff is back Cry

    Not sure what has happened between 16th Jan ( my last post ) and now but the prompt is FUBAR'ed again :-(

    Maybe the last update initiated the spell prompt again .... will try loading a previous version and see what happens, just thought I'd drop a line and let you know .... still a brill addon tho !! Cool

  • #76

    What language does your client use? My first step would be to compare the translation on the localizations page with what appears in the buff's tooltip next to your minimap.

    Be aware, it is different than the name of the spell. For example, in English the spell is named "Flametongue Weapon" but the tooltip simply says "Flametongue".

    Omg Omg! Is this latest update what I think it is? *does snoopy dance and runs off to play my resto shammy* You rock!!

  • #72

    I hope you weren't too dissapointed!  There's not much to it.  Let me know if you have ideas to improve it.  Healing by nature doesn't mix as well with SpellFlash as dpsing or tanking, but there are still a few small things that can be helpful to flash.

    Works awesome! Just the way I had hoped. Windshear flashes when I need to interrupt, buffs flash when they need to be renewed, love it! Thank you so  much :)
