#Ray of Hope Stored Healing Value

Basically every Holy Priest uses Ray of Hope as their PvP Talent, there used to be a couple of Weakauras that I think are no longer working properly in Dragonflight, is anybody able to create one that works properly?

To display how much negative damage it has stored or how much positive healing it has stored that will be released after the 6 seconds? And of course, have it updating often enough to be useful so you can constantly see the new value every time some damage is added or some healing is added

I think of the few that used to exist around Shadowlands, the Bar version as opposed to the Icon one was better

Is it a de/buff? Is the value in the tooltip?

I believe it's a buff and the value is not stored in the tooltip

#

The Blue Ray deals damage because healing hasn't been applied to overcome the damage dealt

#

the Yellow Ray means that the Healing is positive

#

@analog storm I saw somebody talking about a totem and having stored healing earlier so it reminded me all about Ray of Hope and I hope the similarities make it worth creating/fixing

The totem has the info in the tooltip

ah, I imagine Ray of Hope is going to be more problematic?

#

I would like to think a lot of people will find such a WeakAura useful as it's one of the main talent choices for Holy Priests and there's around >9,000 playing PvP in Europe alone, at least in Solo Shuffle, can't speak for Rated Arena's / Battlegrounds

Just did some testing and It absorbs all damage and healing for the duration. changing the aura between the blue/white versions depending on if the damage or healing is higher

It seems that the spellId was changed.

#

you can try updating that aura with the newer spellId it may work

surreal cobalt
#

oh wow, could it be as simple as that?
I hadn't even noticed

#

what a strange thing to do to change the spell ID

mossy lantern
#

it COULD be but no guarantees

surreal cobalt
#

Thanks ❤️ I will give it a go

#

blizzard makes spells work differently enough that it's worth them updating the spellId

#

It looks like they added the two new aura's that seperate if it will heal your vrs if it will hurt you as this aura only references a single spellId everywhere

#

Back when this Weakaura was created Ray of Hope still had the Yellow and Blue variant of the buff depending on damage and healing stored
it seems that the Spell ID in the LUA code is for the main Ray of Hope spell, I think it needs to be that otherwise the Yellow / Blue Spell ID would've also been used some expansions ago too

#

guess its not an easy fix then

#

which part doesn't work about that aura because it works for me

surreal cobalt

oh wow, it seems I may have wasted the time of everyone here as I tested a few of them and they weren't working, although the one I thought I had tested first and linked seems to be the only one out of all of them which is working
