Show number of buffs and buff slots

Here's some code to do just that.
If someone with the DoN AA "Embrace of the Keepers" could test this to see if it works properly would be cool.

Code: Select all

Sub Main

   |shows how many buffs you currently have

   |15 buffs from start
   |+5 OOW AA buffs
   |+1 DON AA buffs

   /declare buffslots int local 0

   |Calculates the number of buff slots you have available
   /varset buffslots 15
   /varcalc buffslots ${buffslots}+(${Me.AltAbility[Mystical Attuning]}/5)
   /if (${Me.AltAbility[Embrace of the Keepers]}) /varcalc buffslots ${buffslots}+1

   /echo ${Me.CountBuffs}/${buffslots} buffs

/return

Not to rain on your parade, but there was already an object in MQ that returned this. I think it was Me.FreeBuffSlots and BuffCount. I don't know if it's stil there, but I'd have to assume it is.

Thanks, couldnt find a Me.BuffCount or similar, but FreeBuffSlots is there. Got rid of that ugly loop :-)

Updated first post with new code

I believe Embrace of the Keepers is only 1 spell slot, not the entire 5.

${Me.CountBuffs}

Found it in my RaidDruid code for CheckBuffs.

and fearless you're correct someone who had the aa confirmed that it's just 1 slot aswell

I know that Me.FreeBuffSlots does account for the Omens AA skill, "Mystical Attuning". I don't know if it accounts for the additional buff slot granted from DoN progression or not.

It sure used to. Now I don't know if it counts the DoN though.

It's easy enough to test if you have someone that can cast a ton of buffs on you available.

okay the embrace of the keepers check is broken in the first post, this code is verified to work properly:

Code: Select all

Sub Main

	|shows how many buffs you currently have

	|15 buffs from start
	|+5 OOW AA buffs
	|+1 DON AA buffs

	/declare buffslots int local 0

	|Calculates the number of buff slots you have available
	/varset buffslots 15
	/varcalc buffslots ${buffslots}+(${Me.AltAbility[Mystical Attuning]}/5)
	/if (${AltAbility[Embrace of the Keepers].ID}) {
		/varcalc buffslots ${buffslots}+1
	}

	/echo ${Me.CountBuffs}/${buffslots} buffs

/return
