Decursive

Name - Decursive

What It Does - Macro or /command based automated selection of the proper debuff remover for whoever around you has been debuffed. For example, with priests, it automatically selects Dispel or Remove Disease, for Mages it selects Remove Curse, etc. By "automatic," I mean that it chooses a target that is either yourself, your party, or members of your raid (in that order) that have debuffs that you can remove.

Where Do You Get It - http://www.curse-gaming.com/mod.php?addid=643

(Get 1.07 for now, as 1.1beta2 does not cure pets.)

Who Needs It - Priests, Druids, Mages, Paladins.

How Much Is It Needed - This tool has proven critical to quickly removing debuffs from the entire raid. You do not need to manually select each person that has been debuffed, dedebuff them, then move on. The task is reduced to hitting a button. (Note that some people dislike this variety of automation, and on a level, they are right - it trivializes certain game operations. However, Blizzard has made it possible to do this via scripting and the UI, therefore it is completely legal.)

Installation and Use - Standard operating procedure - exctract the zip and either start the game if you haven't, or reload your UI if you have. You can trigger the command via "/decursive" or create a macro button to run the command for you.

Tips and Tricks - You still must have debuff removing spells assigned to button slots so that the mod can "push the button" for you. In other words, you can't remove them in favor of Decursive alone.

With the new CTRA, I don't see any reason to use this any more. Has anyone noticed any functionality in Decursive that is not present in CTRA?

I actually use castparty for removing debuffs. I can one-click on anyone in CT_raidassist and it'll automatically use whatever counter I have that can remove that debuff. Doesn't work with pets though.

I also use Castparty with CTRaid, and don't use Decursive

Decursive has priority lists. I dont know if any other addon has something like that. eg: i want to cure 2 MT, myself, certain pal, and 2 priests. With decursive i can do this.
Bring up the configuration dialog binding a key in "Key bindings".

Does Decursive still work in 1.8?

If it doesn't, then what are some other alternatives?

It works fine in 1.8.

The one built into CTRA works fine as well, though it won't ever target hunter pets.

A new version of Decursive has been released for Patch 1.9.1.

Notable Changes:
  • An updated GUI that shows the people who need to have debuffs removed and the order in which Decursive will remove those debuffs.
  • A customizable list in which you can set Decursive to skip certain people when attempting to remove debuffs.
