FaceShooter  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 1.3.1
by: Crowfeather, Celetaras

FaceShooter is a shot recommendation addon for hunters.

Based on your resources like cooldowns and focus it tries to recommend which spell should be cast next.
It is a complete strip back to basics of the former version of FaceShooter, with the new and changed features developed from there.

1.3.1 - 25 Feb 2015
Simple version number change for 6.1

1.3.0 - 24 Feb 2015
Cooldown Sprial Returns!
Altered Black Arrow cooldown from 30sec to 24sec due to 6.1 changes
Coding for Barrage now properly handles the channeled spell
Still aware of issues regarding Explosive shot occasionally 'sticking' due to Lock and Load

1.2.9 - 14 Feb 2015
Faceshooter should now work when mounted on a Telaari Talbuk or a Frostwolf War Wolf

1.2.8 - 14 Feb 2015
Re-packaged zip file. No code change

1.2.8 - 11 Feb 2015
Serpent Sting is now explicitly checked for and Arcane Shot is suggested when it is about to fall off
Issue resolved when Cobra Shot still suggested occasionally when Focusing Shot talent is selected.
Horde should now be able to use Faceshooter while riding a Frostwolf War wolf. I don't have a Horde char so please test and let me know.
Survival focus dump now changed to Arcane Shot

Still an issue is the glitch where Explosive shot gets stuck. It's reproducible but still investigating the root cause.

1.2.7 - 14 Dec 2014
FaceShooter will correctly disable itself if not a Hunter or lower than level 90
Kill Shot now improved. You must however have one of the following on your Action Bars:
- The Kill Shot spell, ie dragged from the spell book to your Action Bars
- A Kill Shot macro with the exact Kill Shot icon
If neither of these are on your Action Bars, Kill Shot is disabled and not recommended by FaceShooter

1.2.6 - 30 Nov 2014
Fix for Kill Shot on BM spec (Incorrectly applied MM Draenor perk)
Focus Fire / Frenzy proc now recognized and suggested in shot recommendations
Faceshooter will work if riding a Telaari Tabuk
Focusing shot partially implemented but still under development and test - Use with caution

1.2.5 - 18 Nov 2014
Bug fix for focus calculation errors for SV and BM spec

1.2.4 - 16 Nov 2014
Added Dreanor Perks:
-Max focus increased by 20
-Kill Shot works on targets < 35% health
Known issues to be resolved:
-Does not recognise when Kill Shot resets its CD if the target does not die from it.
-Faceshooter does not check specifically for which Dreanor Perks are active, so only enables them when your level is 98 or greater.

1.2.3 - 7 Nov 2014
Bug fix for a specific situation which resulted in Aimed Shot never being recommended during Careful Aim phase

1.2.2 - 5 Nov 2014
- Careful Aim now implemented for Marksman, Prioritizes Steady and Aimed Shots when Target health > 80% or when Rapid Fire is active. Can be enabled / disabled / enabled for boss level targets
- Now accounts for lowered shot costs when Bestial Wrath is active
- Still to come: Steady Focus and Frenzy

1.2.1
- Fix for Barrage
- Barrage option now enable by default
- Now correctly identifies friendly units

1.2.0
-No changed code at all. Just repackaged as a zip not rar

1.2.0
- Removed: Hunters Mark, Lynx Rush, All T13 and T14 set bonuses, Lynx Rush & Serpent Sting (Now Passive), Aimed Shot breakpoints, Master Marksman etc.
-Amended/Updated: Lots...
Still under development:
- Careful aim not implemented yet
- Steady Focus not ready for release
- Frenzy / Focus fire mechanism not implemented yet
- No level 90+ features implemented yet (Dreanor perks, Focusing shot etc)
- Shot rotation still not as accurate as I'd like, seems to delay signature shot a bit too much, sometimes suggests Steady/Cobra shots a bit too much

Don't need a full GUI or fully customizable shot priority, but having the option of switching Arcane and Aimed would be handy. There's a lot of discussion about this currently and I think it comes down to which glyphs and talents you have.

Iīm currently in the process of implementing the code to dynamically calculate the exact shot damage of every shot based on the players stats (and target debuffs) including Glyphs and Talents. The Goal will be to sort the priorities on the fly. This means Iīm not inclined spending my time working on something thatīd essentially be nothing more than a bandaid.

That beeing said Iīm asking for your patience as I am still kind of new to wow AddOns and still need to learn how to do things so itīs taking a few more days.

That sounds great if you can get it working.

After more simulations and real testing I'm not sure the arcane/aimed priority is that important anyways. It's definitely not a big enough dps change either way to worry about right now.

I think Iīve found the reason for the Serpent Sting bug. Itīs going to be fixed with the way Iīm handling buffs/debuffs in the next version.

Finally done with the next version. As thereīve been some major changes to the core of the addon there may be some new bugs but overall it seems stable enough to post here again.
From my limited testing it should work with every language again. If some of you folks with clients using other languages than english are getting errors - please let me know.

I'm currently running an "ArP MM" spec. That is, I'm specced into 3 ISS and no Imp Arcane and, thus, drop arcane from my rotation in favor of another steady. This seems to be one of the new rotations that you could easily pick up by looking at the talent tree.

I donīt understand what youīre trying to tell me here. Thereīs no "picking up" of specific rotations anymore. FS calculates the power of each shot on the fly and priorizes them accordingly. So if youīve got a ArP heavy build it should theoretically recommend casting Steady Shot over Arcane on its own.

Great AddOn so far! Even if it still bugs from time to time(missing the first SrS as MM). But I have a request: Adding the option to skin the Buttons! .. well "option".. maybe implement a path to add a texture, i'm more handy in editing .lua then adding or creating stuff, otherwise i would have added it myself

And please don't add an GUI, it's fine how it is!

I'm seeing this behavior as well. And while you're correct in that there's no specific rotations anymore the point of ArP build is to have your Chimera always eat any ISS procs. So while Faceshooter might be correct in estimating that AS will be the most damaging shot to fire (especially after ISS proc), fact is that you really don't want to do that.
An option to completely exclude AS from estimation routine would be nice.

First off thanks a lot for this great addon!

Am I missing something. I noticed with the 7 series every time I switch targets and even when already in combat I am advised to throw Hunter's mark. This is extremely annoying in Ulduar I mean so many petty adds that don't seem to deserve a mark.. Example: Hodir Ice Blocked peeps with 100k life .. hunters mark.. Yogg every weakened add with 200k life .. a mark ugggh Lol am I missing something?

Edit: Just to add a few more examples...

Emalon: Switching to charged minion.. Hunter's mark.. before Es? Then back to Emalon .. Hunter's Mark.. The problem is even if I don't put a mark on minion it will still be there glaring me in the face blocking other shot icons until I use it. I am not trying to complain, I really am not. I would just like input from someone that handles this same situation.

really nice mod but help please ;)

Used faceshooter very successfully in a few ulduar 25 runs, it really helped me not to miss explosive and kill shot procs.

Now the window in the middle of my screen has dissapeared and I cannot get it back, i have even remeved the addon, downloaded a new version and have the same problem, any ideas?

I am using bartender 4 as well as the usual raiding addons but dont think they are causing the problem.

First of all sorry for the long absence, Iīve been (and still am) rather busy moving to a new place so I didnīt have much time to check here much less working on FS or posting replies. Iīll be back doing updates more frequently as soon as Iīm done with that.

Not likely to happen anytime soon. As of now Iīve got no clue how to make an AddOn ButtonFace (or similar) compatible and thereīre a lot of "technical" things Iīd like to add/fix before working on "cosmetics" - sorry.
When I include a GUI that wonīt touch the slash commands. So if you prefer using them you shouldnīt feel any difference.

I see where youīre coming from. I guess it wonīt be very difficult to make FS not recommanding AS while youīve got ISS up. Thatīd make the option to completely exclude it redundant, right? Iīll add it to my todo list for the next version.

FS recommending HM even for adds is not a bug. I used to think it was a waste on trash too but after I did some calculations I was surprised just how powerful it is. Letīs assume 1 AP is 0,6 dps - thatīs about where it should be with rather good gear according to shandaras hunter spreadsheet. Letīs further assume your target has an estimated time to life of 20s - also not unrealistic for your average trash mob. Thatīs 0.6 * 500 * 20 = 6000. So even if itīs for a mere 20s a HM is roughtly worth 6000 dmg per Hunter in the raid and TSA, Glyph of HM and IHM talent will further improve itīs value.

That beeing said even though itīs not a downright bug and propably vastly underestimated by most people I guess FS may still overvalue HM a bit right now due to low initial TTL estimations and the rather high AP to DPS ratio based on very good equipment that assumes stand and shoot fight. I guess Iīll tweak it a bit on both ends in future versions.

Though I canīt tell what exactly the problem is Iīd advise to delete the corrosponding savedvariable files in your wtf folder (only those belonging to faceshooter!). This should completely reset the AddOn to how it used to be on your first installation.

I must be doing something wrong

I cannot get this to work for me. It is in my Addons folder and the addons manager says it is enabled, but I get nothing with either my draenei hunter or my blood elf hunter. When I type /fs or /faceshooter it says to type /help. It looks like it is not recognizing me as a hunter and so not loading at all. Any suggestions? Thanks!
