Mik Scrolling Battle Text - 25% Trigger

Hi,

I've been trying to find a guide that will show me how to set-up this mod with a trigger that produces an on-screen message with sound when the targeted boss reaches 25% and I should change my filler spell to drain soul.

Unfortunately I've not had much luck with this, does anyone know how to do this?

Thanks

Re: Mik Scrolling Battle Text - 25% Trigger

I found my guide included in the addon files. Here is how I have my 25% trigger set up:

Main Event: Health Change
Unit Id - is equal to - Target
Threshold - is less than - 25
Unit Reaction - is equal to - Hostile

I then gave it an output message of "25% Warning!" and gave it its own distinctive sound, along with a purple that matched other warlock spell triggers.

Hope this helps!

Re: Mik Scrolling Battle Text - 25% Trigger

Speaking about this addon...For some reason it keeps disabling the Blizzard floating combat text (like damage put out). Every time I log in, I have to go into the Interface panel and re-enable it. Anyone else see this?

All I'm using the addon for is the 25% trigger and I've disabled all the other triggers/events.

Yep. I couldn't figure out how to fix it so I sadly disabled the addon :( I was using it just for a few triggers just like you and it wants to hog all the combat text.

I'm using MSBT to show up drainsoul tics as damage with sound.
Just create a trigger with:
SPELL_PERIODIC_DAMAGE
Affiliation = You
SkillName = Drain Soul

So that I can 'time' the right moment to refresh my dots right after a tic.

Re: Mik Scrolling Battle Text - 25% Trigger

Hi again

I've changed my UI yesterday and it comes with Parrot not MSB. I've managed to get the 25% drain soul message working fine but I'm having trouble getting ticks working with Parrot, does anyone know how to do this?

Thanks

Ewww, I believe the correct solution is to disable Parrot and reinstall MSBT.

I tried Parrot for a while and found MSBT to be sooooo much better.

Agreed here on going back to MSBT.. the above is nice and also remember about debuffs gained and fade.

Here is another good MSBT for specific fights..

Loatheb - Create a notification when you gain "Fungal Creep" (this is off memory.. don't remember the exact name of the buff) and when you lose it.

You can do all kinds of interesting notifications around buffs and debuffs gained and lost. I do something like that to help me manage things that I don't watch all the time or things that are important. Another good one is in a hectic fight to notify you when Corruption might have fallen off a target and to get it back on. MSBT is really powerful for the sound effects as well.. I use sounds to notify me of certain events so I just by instinct know what to do when I hear the sound.
