This addon helps the Chosen player with twisting multiple Chaotic Auras through a single keybinding, activating two or three in succession at regular intervals during combat. After you have set up different hotbar pages with different Aura abilities in a predetermined slot (#1 through #12) of each page (#1 through #5), they show up in the same slot in a single actionbar (such as actionbar2 or actionbar4) where the pages are rotated, allowing a single keybinding for that slot on that actionbar to activate the different Aura abilities on that same slot of different pages. (Watch the vid, you'll get it!)

...after you've followed all instructions and checked for all known issues.
1-2-3-Go
1. Watch the video (mirror on Google video) and make sure it is something you want and can use.
2. Open the readme.txt for reading and reference while you are getting it working.
3. Once in-game, type "/chosen" and follow the further clues to type "/chosen help", "/chosen usage", "/chosen setbar N", and "/chosen dumpdata". Before actually activating, make sure your hotbar pages are slotted and keys bound as desired.
Go. Activate with the "/chosen start Pg1 Pg2" command. Hit keybinding. Have fun.
Known Issues
1. Will break on loading new zone, such as scenario. Workaround until fix is /reloadui and then /chosen resume.
2. Does not work at all in any client with a localization other than the English one. So no joy for users of the German/French/Spanish/etc. clients at this time.
3. The addon requires the default BuffTrackers window for the player unitframe. That is, you need to be able to see the little buff icons for Auras under your player target. If you don't, reconfigure or uninstall the addon hiding them (e.g. CUF).
4. The correct syntax for a macro is /script slash("chosen resume") regardless of what you saw in the instruction vid.
5. The "resume" command in 1.02 forgets to print a message to chat similar to the "start" command's message. It does activate.
6. The addon's intended functionality is to give you zero alerts while out of combat, with the exception of one upon activation. You won't see or hear all the bells and whistles until you get into combat. It should still rotate hotbar pages out of combat if set up correctly.
Bug Reports and Contact
Please continue to submit bug reports through the bug ticket tracker (e-mail to peterkirby@gmail.com works too...premature curse comments are bad mm'kay). You may also be able to track me down in Warhammer as the character Doomhammer (or, more likely, Doomzealot) on the server Vortex. If so, send me a tell. I am often in #waruidev on irc.freenode.net as BotanicalPuppet and on WarhammerAlliance.com's UI Discussion forum as Doomvortex.
