If you are having errors we need a copy of the entire error's text to be able to help.
See this message #pins message for details on getting detailed Lua errors

But use a default trigger 👍

Can easily get absorbs from the tooltip, and can also do the formatting however you want

#

And it'll never break

#

GetSpellInfo doesn't exist anymore

#

!deprecated

With The War Within many functions of the API were deprecated, follow these links for more information 11.0.2 11.0.0

think i have this issue with GetSpellInfo in alot of weakauras

candid sonnet
#

Really, just use a default trigger. Easier, less worries

swift turret
#

ok how do i get that i thought it was %tooltip.1?

candid sonnet
#

If you click "fetch tooltip info" in the aura trigger, then yes

#

%tooltip1 or 2 or 3

#

%tooltip1 is the first number in the tooltip, and so on.

swift turret
#

can i divide this by 1000 directly here?

candid sonnet
#

You can click on the ⚙️ to format numbers

#

And yeah that's an option IIRC

swift turret
#

wonders

thanks man
