Tanking With Decursive


Decursive is a addon that you can download is a Cleansing mod. Its there to help you remove negative effects or debuffs and for a Paladin thats all the same things your Cleanse button can do been Poison, Disease & Magic. For me as a Tank on my hotkey bar with all my other buttons I don't have a Cleanse button since I use Decursive witch floats just above all my button bar and sits on the screen almost at eye level to see it or instantly read the debuff when it shows up quickly. Often I'm always cleansing myself if I can as the tank, I can't wait around for the healer to do it so I often do it myself unless they beat me to it... Especially when tanking Heroics you want to remove debuffs on tank Quickly.

When I get hit with a debuff (posion, disease, magic) or something like that I can see it right away or in group party. Other square shows up beyond the one you see in the pic and it shows up Red and lists the group member and name of debuff on player. You can see what the debuff is and just hit quickly to remove it from whoever the party member is with just a click on the red button when it lights up with the name of the person. Pretty easy to use. It does come with options to setup the addon as you need, but i've only had to set mine once. But its easy to use. For Tanking its real easy and awesome addon to have (must have for me) and use to remove to cleanse stuff right away. Sometimes i'm so fast on it i've removed priests buffs too in my party. Just watch what debuff is and cleanse it as needed. In Heroics it really helps to have it handy especially in Colifang Reservoir Instances where stuff can really stack up quick.

You can find it and download it from Curse or at WowAce.

But do use MacAceUpdater to daily update all my addons since almost all my addons are all ace based. Dosen't make for easy access to things playing WoW on action bars since well they don't all work as yet. Still waiting.

Screenshots - New UI interface & Addons

This is the new UI & Addon Interface i have been fumbling with and sucking up LOTS of my time away from leveling for over a week. In that same time Nihilum guild on a WoW EU server raided Black Temple, cleared and killed all the bosses and killed Illidan. Duh!! Right now this layout is what i settled on. I still learning to work with UI's and so i can only handle so much change at one time. Mentally its taking my mind to know where things are on the screen. My Mac Monitor is a 24" Monitor so i can see a lot of my screen at all times, so having the bottom screen darken to see the messages and the hotkeys are fine to me.


There are several hidden bars that are on the screen laying horizontal above the dark horizon that shows when i mouse over. The bar on the left changes depending on which log I'm looking at. I may need to move it, but later. I'm having a hard time figuring out how to get a combat log in the bottom right section. Initially i separated combat log from the chat log and moved it...it didn't seem to work again after. Bums. Oh well its work in progress and more work than i expected it to be. The information on the FuBar is great, however its too much dam information i can also play fine without though nice to have. It won't be perfect in a day for sure.

Too many Addon's to list so will do it later in another post. But they are mainly Ace & FuBar ones.

New Addon's & UI's

Galo has been back in Outland and just resting up since getting the new Epic Mount. So haven't been up to much. I'm in no hurry to get to 70 other than daily progression. However been a bit preoccupied at looking at some new Addon's or UI mods usefull for Outland.

Been discovering the world of Addons, mods, UI's and so been looking around at some sites and some Addons that could and would be use full and found a few. So mostly been getting acquainted with installing and loading UI and see how they look, work and such and messing around. So taking awhile and a bit getting used to.
