Talent Builds Discussion

[silverhawk11]

Hello,

I think I'm out of ideas :-P. I triple-checked all of the code and I can't find it. All the previous builds I've used run just fine, so I'm really just unsure. Maybe someone else has ideas?

Try this:

ZygorTalentAdvisor:RegisterBuild("DEATHKNIGHT","BLOODPLZKTHX",[[

This also didn't work. Weird, does being on a Mac have anything to do with it?

For now, I'll just manually add points...

I know it doesn't look much different but try this:

ZygorTalentAdvisor:RegisterBuild("DEATHKNIGHT","BLOODPLZKTHX",[[
    // Blood Talents
    5 Blade Barrier
    3 Subversion
    2 Two-Handed Weapon Specialization

    1 Mark of Blood
    3 Bloody Strikes
    3 Veteran of the Third War
    2 Abomination's Might
    1 Hysteria
    2 Improved Blood Presence
    3 Bloodworms
    1 Vampiric Blood
    2 Improved Death Strike
    1 Heart Strike
    1 Sudden Doom
    // Unholy Talents

    1 Virulence
    3 Ravenous Dead
    3 Morbidity
    2 Epidemic
    2 Unholy Command
    2 On a Pale Horse
    2 Night of the Dead

Not too sure on what this is about but anybody got any suggestions for a blood DK DPS - talents and rotations?

[Buggie]

OK, having just gone through this with my DK build, this is what I did to fix my build01.lua (be aware I am running Windows and not a MAC OS).

I, as well, kept getting LUA errors, not the same ones, but LUA errors just the same.

Make sure you have the most recent guide installed, version 907, I believe.

The coding for my "custom DK" build01.lua looks like this:

if not ZygorTalentAdvisor then return end

ZygorTalentAdvisor:RegisterBuild("DEATHKNIGHT","Ghoul Knight (44/0/27) - Custom",[[
        2/2 Vicious Strikes
        3/3 Virulence
        2/2 Epidemic
        3/3 Morbidity
        3/3 Ravenous Dead
        2/2 Necrosis
        3/3 Blood-Caked Blade
        2/2 Night of the Dead
        1 Unholy Blight
        5/5 Impurity
        1 Master of Ghouls
        2/2 Butchery
        3/3 Subversion
        5/5 Bladed Armor
        2/2 Two-Handed Weapon Specialization
        5/5 Dark Conviction
        3/3 Death Rune Mastery
        3/3 Bloody Strikes
        3/3 Veteran of the Third War
        1 Mark of Blood
        3/3 Bloody Vengeance
        2/2 Abomination's Might
        2/3 Bloodworms
        1 Hysteria
        2/2 Improved Death Strike
        3/3 Sudden Doom
        1 Heart Strike
        3/3 Might of Mograine

Also, Wordpad, again I'm using Windows, was doing some reformatting of the texting, which created extra spaces and other things. By using Notepad, removing all the "extra" spaces that Wordpad created, and checking the tabs all the same, everything seemed to fall into place and I no longer receive the LUA errors.

Hope this helps.

Thanks Cabby and Buggie.. I will try these out when I get home as I'm sneaking onto the zygor site from work. hehe

I have been using TextEdit on the mac and at first it was putting in the blue background from the

 window

So.. yea I'll try these... in fact, im going to hop on one of these windows puters and put the codes into text files, using NotePad, and then when i get home i'll change the extension.

Thanks again for all of your help =)

One other thing, Notepad default is to save the text files in an ANSI encoding, it's possible that your TextEdit is trying to save it in some other encoding style so if you have ANSI available try saving it with that encoding.

Yea when I tried to change the encoding on my mac, ANSI wasnt an option. They had UTC and some Windows one but none said ANSI. Im definitley going to create these lua files here at work lol

EDIT: OMG EFF-YES! It finally Effing worked! Woooot! So yea, it was the ANSI coding and not having a real plain text editor. I suppose Mac's "TextEdit" program is alot like Microsoft's "WordPad".

Thanks Everyone!!

Warrior Prot Leveling build?

any chance of getting a prot warrior leveling guide? with the dual spec, it'd be nice to have as an option.

love the guides!

Hey there bdrexel;

In the talent build thread there are a couple (at least) posts for a prot warrior talent build, as well as how to set it up as a talent build recognized by the guide.

[Buggie]

WOOT, grats Bloodess!

[lilocowboy]

I was wondering if it would be possible for some of these Builds could maybe be tested and/or added to the Zygor Talent Advisor. Just the ones that are proven to work well.

Where is the best place to find out the best rotations? I am one of those people that have created 1 of each class so I can be more flexable for my guild.
