About CombustionHelper
The goal of this addon is to allow easy optimizing of the mage talent Combustion. It tracks all relevant Dots on your target, your cooldown of Combustion 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 Ignite and Pyroblast Dots.
With this addon, you'll know if one of your Dot is missing.
CombustionHelper is composed of the main addon and 2 bundled other addons : CauterizeCooldown and MageBombTracker. Here is their main features :
CombustionHelper main addon:
- Automatic switch depending if combustion is in your spellbook or not.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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 number of refreshed Hot Streak.
- Timer for Combustion Dot on target.
- Flamestrike tracker supporting regular 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.
- Graphical options so you can make it the way you want.
- Localisation in English, Deutsch, French and Chinese (feel free to report typos…) (thanks to Hambo and Plueschbaer from MMO-C forums for deutsch version)
- Threshold option to activate color change of background when Ignite cross the specified value.
- Audio warning when ignite value reach the threshold.
- Combustion tick damage and number prediction.
- Missing Pyromaniac buff warning (who wouldn't want 10% more damage on main nuke ?)
- Heating Up available warning
CauterizeCooldown :
A simple cooldown showing Cauterize cooldown.
You can change the scale, alpha and Frame level. Also enabled by default a timer like OmniCC/CooldownCount. You can choose to autohide the addon when your cauterize is off cooldown. It will autohide too for classes other than mage. Also feature a customizable warning message which can be outputted to vicinity, party, raid or yell channel. There is also another optional warning when Ice Block is up. You can set whatever SharedMedia sound you want as an alert.
MageBombTracker :
This addon track all the new mage bombs and flamestrike cooldown which will be available in patch 5.0.4 and MoP. Previously bundled with CombustionHelper, it's now available as a stand alone addon. It show them with a list which feature :
- current target marker
- target name
- raid marker
- time remaining
Other nice features are :
- Alert when missing a bomb
- Alert when overwriting a bomb before last tick
- End of fight report
Fully customisable and lightweight, all you need to monitor your bombs !
Available in English and French for now, submit your translation for more.
----------
Changes from 2.xx versions ?
- No more crit debuff tracking, it's gone for mages.
- No more support for FrostFire Bolt, useless for Combustion and i doubt anyone used it.
- No more Impact support, new inferno blast replaced aura procs.
Use Interface Panel -> Addons for full config or /combustionhelper for bringing up directly the option panel.
As always, report me bugs and requests.
Donation is totally optional but all funds will be used to buy chocolate for my wife so she'll be a bit less mad at me spending so much time coding.

this is happening on another class than your mage right ?
i can't say for azrenegade, but for me i get that error on every class except my mage.
Instead of using a flat amount as an ignite threshold, I'd like it to be calculated dynamically, taking into account my current stats at any given time. In particular, here's the formula which SimC uses:
Ignite tick threshold = (Fireball crit dmg + Inferno Blast crit dmg + Pyroblast hit dmg) * Mastery * 0.5
Would it be possible to implement something like this?
with a dynamic threshold what if you cross the threshold while having no proc active ? you'd use your combustion with low power. it seems better to practive a bit, note the threshold you usually see under some procs and use it. this way you could use your combustion without having to check all the time if the threshold met is under procs.
According to simc, it's still better overall to use combustion early once you pass your dynamic threshold than to wait until you get the better situation with procs up, because every second you delay the cooldown is a DPS loss. In addition, some buffs like pots are only available once or twice in the fight, so if they're up then you want to wait until you get the optimal (slightly higher) combustion with them active, as opposed to the lower optimal combustion you can get without them. I'm not sure how well this relates to what actually happens in raids and so on, but to me it seems worth a try at least.
Another small benefit is that it's easier for casual or semi-casual players to make use of this addon, because they don't have to put effort into determining what their optimal threshold should be, and it automatically adapts itself to reflect solo, group or raid environments.
Edit: Note, this is based on simc using my current gear, I have a few enchants and trinkets with fairly long (and different) ICDs, so it would be pretty hard for me to wait for them all to line up. It's possible that with other gear something else is true.
I also got info it's out of date, please update it as I can't play my fire mage without it!!
of course you can, you just have to check the "use out of date addon" box in your addon list, anyway gonna update...
yes, tried that but didn't work after I had to delete my wtf folder and create new one. anyways it's working now THANKS!!!
This addon reports that it is out of date at this time. This is a fresh addon installation on a fresh WOW install.
I'm having an isue with combustion helper that with the bomb section (not the mage bomb tracker, but the actual section entitled BOMB) will not track nether tempest for me. It works comepletely find for living bomb, but wont work with the other 2 bombs, which is kind of a shame. Is there a way to fix this? perhaps making the add on select the current tallent selected, and then change the sub routine its using to track it? help would be much appreciated :)

did it happen on your mage or another class ?
I get the same error when i go to interface but only on other classes. On my mage no errors.
Unfortuneatly i cant get the border and background removed from the graphical options panel.
I attached a picture showing the black "box" i cant remove in option.
