Weak Auras for Marksmanship - What are you using?

[illogic 2]

First off, many thanks to Niix and Orthios for their intuitive insights in to the Marksmanship class changes.  I am just returning to Marksmanship after a long hiatus of playing BM, and the prospects are looking fantastic.

 

I am having some difficulty in configuring Weak Auras, specifically tracking Careful Aim, and I am curious as to what auras you more experienced Marksman hunters are tracking.  Any tips, examples, or insights would be most appreciated.

 

Thanks in advance!

Feel free to check out the pre-expansion hunter guide I posted. Under the MM section it has a very very nice weak aura for Sniper Training. Other than that I use a weak aura to track Steady Focus and that's it.

Yes sir, I had seen and farmed that Weak Aura the other day.  And thank you for that.  I will put one together for Steady Focus over coffee this morning.

Thank you for your response, and tips.

Just wanted to comment on this. I didn't much care for the one on Niix's guide. I found this one here on the forums that I prefered better:  https://www.icy-veins.com/forums/topic/7429-weak-auras-2-focus-bar-and-tracking-jshb-replacement/ . However I did remove the sniper training portion b/c it was giving me errors & substituted this instead(courtesy of Tehterrokar on the MMO-Champions forum):

Now, it does give an error the first time it is loaded. Something about custom text referring to the reading of the player's name I believe. I'm not at all a coder, so I have no clue what it might be, but after the initial error it works just fine.

Well until I can find someone to help me fix the error,(at least from repeating) I'll probably use the other sniper training string.  Thanks anyways.

Hey, I created that weakaura and i have since fixed that error, here is the updated version for you if you want it.

First off, many thanks to Niix and Orthios for their intuitive insights in to the Marksmanship class changes.  I am just returning to Marksmanship after a long hiatus of playing BM, and the prospects are looking fantastic.

 

I am having some difficulty in configuring Weak Auras, specifically tracking Careful Aim, and I am curious as to what auras you more experienced Marksman hunters are tracking.  Any tips, examples, or insights would be most appreciated.

 

Thanks in advance!

 

 

Hi! First time posting on here as I felt I had something of significance to contribute to this topic. With regards to tracking Careful Aim on enemy's I use the Tidy plates addon and edit the health colours and percentages on the health bars. In my case the health bar will be green until 80% and then turn yellow until they enter kill shot range when it turns red. I find this a particularly useful visual clue to select the appropriate target for each of my shots. In a single target fight this is pretty useless but for fights with a few adds up I find it has improved my preformance.

This isn't a Weak Aura but it is a guide for setting up Need To Know to track Sniper Training.  I've tried both weak auras available and they either give bunches of errors in combat or are too bulky and/or busy.  This setup gets the job done in a very minimalist fashion.  Plus I use Need to Know on every toon.
