Hello there!

Past days I've tried to figure out how to make a clickable weakaura for requesting PI. I found one from retail which needed little editing but right now the only problem it has is: not resetting cooldown after encounter ends.

In wrath if you are 30 seconds into a boss fight almost all the cooldowns reset regardless if encounter is successful or not.

I would appreciate any input and help to improve the weakaura.

Clickable PI

Wago.io is a database of sharable World of Warcraft addon elements

A lot of people use this one in retail https://wago.io/f5SA1p-ye

It uses a whisper message from the person requesting pi to the person giving pi and people macro the whisper into their cooldown keybind. It might be easier to get this working or adopt a similar communication scheme.

Handle the assignment of Power Infusion without using voice. Supports requests by whisper and/or by big spell casts. Ru

The idea is that the receiver in this case the dps:

  • can request by click
  • track the cooldown of the priest’s pi (what i am stuck with because it resets after encounter)

There's 3 main approaches to tracking the CDs of others:
1. You catch the event for them casting an ability and start a timer for the base CD time.
2. You try to gather as much info about them as you can, their talents, traits and buffs, then start a timer based on the base CD, adjusted with the info you were able to gather.
3. You send Addon Messages to each other with your current actual CD times.

• The first is inaccurate - especially on longer CD with more chance for procs and talents to reduce things - but simple and easy to get up and running. If you need a rough guide then this is fine and can be done with a default Event - Combat log - Spell - Cast Success trigger.
○ This is also the only real option if you're trying to track the CDs of enemies.
• The second is a lot of work and there's still always going to be some information you're unable to gather.
• The third is the most accurate but requires that both users have a WA or Addon.

Idk if Classic era MRT has feature parity with retail, but I've seen this option used to make clickable request frames. I can give you a quick rundown of how to set it up if that option exists

MRT has this option and there is another one called Nova Raid Companion.
