Is there a way to include
<EQType>9999</EQType>
<TooltipReference>$calc($char(hp,cur)+$char(DAR))</TooltipReference>
in my UI? I try but I get spammed with can not parse and it shows my hp as negative 1. Any ideas, please let me know.

Well first of all, can you do this on the command line?

type

/echo $calc(whatever)

does it return an error also?

next, check each sub componant to see your result

/echo $char(hp,cur)
/echo $char(DAR)

Are they both returning numbers? You cant "add" two things unless they are numbers.

Damage Absorption Remaining... Unfortunately it doesn't update until after you zone (its not real time)

thanks. Problem was that I had DAR capitalized, hehe. DAR stands for Damage Absorb Remaining. So if you have a 800 rune, and get hit for 200, it would report 600 remaining.

Is $char(dar) real time or not?

it is not real time.

Is there any way to make this real time or get a real time %char ??

I have the same question as bob the bulder; is there a way to make this update without zoning?

it seems to work in real time now... I have tested it out with a RuneII proc as well as removing that buff again.

You might be right... I was using it with max hp and not with the current hp... My bad, sorry.
