#Duration timer from first SPELL_PERIODIC_HEAL

Hey, I'm trying to create a WA to track the duration of "Divine Favor: Sanctuary" which is a Holy priest spell triggered by having "Divine Word" active and casting "Holy Word: Sanctify".

The only thing I'm able to find for this spell is a CLEU:SPELL_PERIODIC_HEAL event. Since the periodic heal obviously ticks, the duration gets reset every time a new event comes in.

Any ideas on how to go about starting a timer when 1 event comes in and then ignoring the rest for the duration of the event? Or possibly just a better way of tracking the spell in the first place.

If you're the source then can't you just use the cast success?

There is a cast success for "Holy Word: Sanctify" but the spell on triggers when "Divine Word" is also active. I guess creating two triggers for the Divine Word aura and 1 for Sanctify success might work.

#

Hmm, so now the issue is if I have 2 triggers, 1 for the Aura and 1 for spell success, if I do All triggers, it doesn't work since the Aura disappears once spell cast succeeds. If i do Any triggers, then it's active too often since I only want it when Aura was active WHILE the cast succeeded.

I don't really know the spells. You want to track when an ability does a random proc basically? And the only event to show the random thing occurred is the HOT?

essentially, but its not a random proc. its caused by casting one spell and then another

This is for the Sanctify heal over time.

#

The other 2 are easy because they are just auras

So you could track the casts directly.
Or use the periodic thing. Catch the cast success of the spell that actually causes it, then if you get the first periodic within a few frames (or however long you'd expect) then start the timer and clear the saved start time

yea, so I would probably need a custom TSU then to keep track of everything

#

ooo i figured out a better way. i just did 2 triggers, 1 for SPELL_AURA_REMOVED for Divine Word with a 15 second duration and 1 for SPELL_CAST_SUCCEEDED for Sanctify with the same duration and did All triggers.
