About KickAlert

One of the problems I ran into with the (25 man) General Vezax fight was keeping track of when it was my turn to kick. It was easier in RoS; when the cooldown was up, it was my turn. But the General sometimes casts Searing Flames as often as he can and sometimes waits a bit to cast it.

So I wrote an addon to help with tracking this. Basically, it looks at the combat log, and any time another rogue does a kick, it puts an icon on the screen with that rogue's name and a 10 second timer. You can pick a particular rogue to follow by right clicking on their target portrait and choosing them, and after they do their kick it will put a "You are next!" message on the screen. Samples are shown in the lower left of the images attached.

It occurred to me that it would also help on the Thorim fight with tracking disarms/dismantles, so I added an additional row for those. It will show any kick (or shield bash, etc.) on one line and any disarm/dismantle on another. This is also useful on Gormak, where there might be a bunch of warriors and rogues dismantling or disarming. There is one line for kicks, another for dismantles. It works for any of kicks, pummels, wind shock, etc.

It can also be used by priests to set up a fear ward or guardian spirit rotation in the same way. (On the option screen, press the "change spellset" button and it will change from kicks/disarms to Big Cooldowns/Little Cooldowns.)

There are a variety of options, type /kickalert or /kal for a list.

2.04 11/29/11 Update TOC for 4.3

2.03 6/28/11 Update for 4.2 combat log changes, add druid(cat) skull bash

2.02 4/26/11 Update for 4.1 combat log change

2.01 3/2/11 Added rebuke, removed mage spell test icon

2.00 10/13/10 Change TOC for 4.0

1.97 9/30/10 Changes to make compatible with wow 4.0, except for final TOC change.

1.96 12/12/09 In addition to TOC bump, added a small delay between detecting the kick and setting the "you are next" message. This allows the target cast bar to update and disappear before the message shows up, in case of lag.

1.95 10/31/09 Catch additional case of clearing death messages after wipes.

1.93 9/16/09 Additional debugging lines.

1.92 9/9/09 Corrected error that caused an error message on the first new message after someone died.

1.91 9/4/09 Death message cleared on OOC. Changed default for rogues to also clear messages on OOC (note: will not change current setting). Added advanced options panel as a subpanel under options.

1.9 8/11/09 Added message for follow target dying. Will immediately put up a "name has died" warning, which is cleared on next kick/dismantle.

    This looks like the standard Blizzard issue in setting focus. Non-blizzard addons can't set focus. If you type /focus in your chat log, it should set up a focus for you.

    Nope, priests fall in the "big cooldown/minor cooldown" category. For priest, instead of kick and dismantle they see big and little cooldowns, and put guardian spirit and fear ward on different lines. For some fights (Mimiron phase 1 for example) where the priests had a rotation and wanted a way to track who was up next.
