#Tracking combat log triggers after a trigger has been activated

I am attempting to track the Enhancement Shaman talent of "Alpha Wolf", which is any time I cast Crash Lightning or Chain Lightning, my wolves will activate "Spirit Bomb" which is their AoE attack. However, it has to be after I've activated my wolves.

Currently, I'm attempting to track it with 3 triggers. Each trigger is a Combat Log Spell Cast Success, when I cast those abilities. The Feral Spirit one is timed for 15 seconds, and the two others are timed for 8 seconds.

However, if I Crash Lightning before I use Feral Spirits, my WA activates. (Currently my WA activate trigger combination is only trigger[1]). I need the 2 other combat log spell cast success triggers to only happen after I've successfully casted the Feral Spirit.

Which of the three triggers is which currently? Sounds like Crash Lightning is trigger 1, so feral spirit 2 and ?? For 3? And is the WA intended to tell that you properly set up the wolves to use spirit bomb? Or that they actually used it? I ask in case there may be an easier way to accomplish your end goal.

feral spirit is trigger 1, crash 2, chain 3, and the activation is only set to return trigger[1]

#

so one would assume it would only start tracking trigger 2 and 3 after the actual WA has been activated

if its only watching for trigger 1, then 2 and 3 arent going to do anything unless you have conditions tied to them that modify the aura in some way (they are still being checked but you just havent told wa to do anything with that information), if what your looking for is it to be activated when you cast crash lightning or chain lightning, but only while feral spirit is active, then i think return trigger[1] and (trigger[2] or trigger[3]) should get you what you're looking for.

i'm fairly positive that trigger function will still return the WA being activated IF crash is pressed before feral spirits (trigger 2 before 1)

#

which is not what i want. it HAS to wait until trigger 1 has been activated to be searching for the 2 other things

That will require either of the following to be true:

  • trigger 1 and trigger 2 are active
  • trigger 1 and trigger 3 are active

Which can happen in trigger 2 is done and then trigger 1 4 seconds later, but that’s because you’re using timed triggers..

#

Why are you using timed triggers though

#

If you’re trying to track the cooldown of this Spirit Bomb, why dont you just track that directly

what cooldown of Spirit Bomb though? i don't have a buff

#

how can i track that on it's own? that would make my life easier for usre
