Aura

Aura provides visual cues to the user depending upon criteria the users specifies. Being able to quickly see when you or your targets receive a certain buff or debuff, the time left on the buff, or knowing quickly when your have an ability come off cooldown can make or break the tide of a fight.

Some things Aura can alert you on:

  • When you get a certain buff/debuff( "Enfeebling Strike", "Gork Sez Stop", etc )
  • When you build enough career points( ie. "High Magic", "Grudge", etc )
  • When an ability becomes available( ie. Reactionary styles )
  • When an ability comes off of cooldown( ie: Any of them, including morale abilities )
  • When you have a certain tactic on/off.
  • When you or your target get above/below a certain percent of hit points
  • When your action points go above or below a certain point

What type of notifications can Aura give:

  • Display a texture of your choice on the screen
    • You specify the location, size, scale, rotation, color tint, including animation
  • Play a sound of your choice
  • Display alert text of your choice
  • Display a timer on effects, or on ability cooldown
    • You specify the location, size and color tint of the timer.

Bugs & Suggestions

Have an idea that you think should be added to Aura, or perhaps you found an issue you would like to report?

Head to CurseForge and report it here. This way it can get documented, and I receive an email when the ticket comes in so I can prioritize accordingly. Its much easier than scouring the posts on Curse, Warhammer Alliance, VN, etc.

    Hi Rio,

    Unfortunately there isnt place to quickly look up what you are looking for, as Aura only checks against the information that Mythic sends to your client.

    The best way to determine what type of Effect you are working with is to mouse over the effect when it is on someone and the tooltip will tell you the type it is.

    Where does one go to verify the type of effect a certain ability has (i.e., hex, damaging, etc). I found out, for example, that Wrath of Hoeth (SM ability) states it is a Damaging effect but with Aura I had to put it down as a Hex in order for it to work?

    Any ideas on this matter?

    I tried to insert the Italian translation for a couple of Phrases but none of them were saved by the form. Any tips?

    Can you set this addon to notify a BW when Flash Fire is active? How exactly would you do this?

    Same problem as shark321. Generic effects trigger fine, but none of the specific - named ones work.

    The only other thing it could possibly be is that the individual aura is turned off. When you bring up the Aura window using /aura, make sure the name is displayed in green. If not, you can enable the aura with shift-l-click.

    If that does not resolve the issue, submit and ticket and include the SavedVariable.lua.

    It will be located in a directory similar to the following:

    C:\Program Files\Mythic\Warhammer\user\AllCharacters\AuraSettings

    OR

    If you use character specific settings it will be in C:\Program Files\Mythic\Warhammer\user\<ServerName>\<Characte rName>\AuraSettings

    Where servername and character name are replaced with the character you are using Aura with.

    Does not work with Target Self checked.

    Check "Target Self" and it should be up and running.
