Item Procs - Adorns

Xel · #1 03-23-2011, 12:43 AM

Good evening, all.

I haven't done much UI work in the past, but I recently decided that I wanted to make some minor modifications to an existing custom UI that I use. Here's my question:

I see that maintained spells are available as dynamic data, however it appears that item procs (at least from the new yellow adorns) do not show up as maintained spells. For example, the 'Aegis I' adorn (ward) procs but does not show up in the beneficial spells window and thus isn't visible via a maintained spell.

Is there any way to get at this information so that I'd be able to key off of these types of procs? Is this an oversight, or a working-as-intended?

Thanks.

No. There is no way to be able to get that data or have the UI pick it up. You would have to feedback that to have it added a "maintained" buff if it's possible for the devs to do that.

They probably made it that way on purpose. We already flood the icon limit regularly with other actual spells, etc.

Yeah, a lot of procs that land on individuals don't show up in maintained as it quickly clutters.

It'd be nice to have a way to monitor or prioritize or filter certain procs/abilities on folks but it'd have to be done on SOE's end, we can only work with what data they give us. Maintained and (even worse) spell effects are super cluttered already, so having them add more to maintained isn't really a solution. Folks are already hitting the cap on displayed effects so having more just means that there's more effects not being displayed, at least with things as they are now.
