Thaliz - Rez dem deads!

The Thaliz Project

- for Classic and Lich King ... but obviously not for Hardcore ;-)

1. About Thaliz

This addon adds a new button on the screen: The Thaliz button!

When you click the button, Thaliz will scan the raid for dead (unreleased) corpses and pick the best target for resurrection, based on the priorities below:

- Highest priority to the corpse you are currently targetting (if any)

- then the master looter (if any)

- then other ressers (priest, paladin, shaman. druid, monk)

- then other mana users (mage, warlock, hunter)

- then warriors

- and last the rogues.

If no Warlocks are up, one Warlock will get faster priority (below the ressers).

When a corpse is being resurrected (unreleased or not), a random message is displayed on the screen. This can be configured to be either a /SAY, /YELL or in /RAID chat, together with an optional whisper to the target.

Settings and messages can be configured by typing /thaliz cfg.

The Thaliz button can be moved by clicking shift+left and then dragging button to desired position.

Thaliz works in Classic Era/SOM and Wrath Classic - and in theory also Classic Hardcore, although targets will not be able to accept the resurrection ;-)

1.1. How Thaliz works 

Thaliz scan the raid for corpses. If a corpse is found and eligible for a res, the Thaliz action button will change icon to your current class (Priest, Paladin, Shaman, and in retail also Druid and Monk). This means the button is ready for use.

When you click the button, the actual res will begin. If there are more than just one corpse, the priorities listed above will be used.

Thaliz monitors the log and checks if others are ressing the same target, so if there are unreleased corpses around you but the button is not lit up, this means that either someone else casted a resurrection on that corpse, or the corpse is out of range.

1.2. Messages

Up to 200 random messages in total can be configured. The addon ships with 20 pre-configured messages, containing quotes from famous World of Warcraft Classic bosses from various raids.

You can fully customize your messages as you like - or remove them all and add a plain simple "Resurrecting [%s] ..." message instead if you don't like the random messages.

1.3. Advanced messages

All messages - or macros - can be grouped into one of five different groups: GUILD, CHARACTER, CLASS, RACE and DEFAULT.

When a macro is in the GUILD group, the macro can only be used if the target belongs to the guild name, configured together with that macro.

Same goes for the CHARACTER group, where the macro can only be used if the configured name matches the target character's name. CLASS and RACE works in a similar way.

If the target being resurrected does not match any of the four above groups, the macro's in the DEFAULT group will be used instead.

All pre-configured macros are in the DEFAULT group, but you can click on a macro and reconfigure it as you like.

If the "Include Defaults in filtered macros" option is checked, then the default macro list will always be considered, also even the target may match macros in one or more of the other groups.

And last, the resurrection whisper can now also be customized.
