bigwigs is also one to avoid spam, making bars for every single person that has the toy would result in that.
Hmm I'm referring to phase1, when we face Telonicus alone. There are hardly any bars up, unlike Kael phase3 or Vashj. He doesn't use Remote Toy *that* often. In any case, it's not a big deal, just thought I'd mention it. BigWigs seems to have a bias against non-warrior tanks. :)
This was actually a issue I was going to suggest also, going when healers / hunter tank (if you use that for the bow), is a extra risk my guild at least don't want. At the moment I have to rely on the raid members with DBM to know when to enter phase2 since I only use BW.
Having got our first kill recently I might have missed it, but I don't think I saw a bar for the duration of Gravity Lapse (30sec I think), as you want to know when it's about to end this could be useful. (and if it's already there and I missed it, I blame the excitement of a first kill :) ).
Ok the timers for Al'ar do not always show up, and sometimes midfight show up.
Is there a way to fix this?
Tonight I didnt have any timers the entire fight.
At P2, I got he enrage timer to show up after more than a minute was over, and nothing of the melt armor.
Cant you check if the paladin in question has the Rightous Fury buff? Any paladin with this buff will be a Tank or very rarely a healer, perhaps an combination of inrange for melee & the threat buff?
Just the range check would be perfect I think (mostly because I tend to always have Righteous Fury active regardless of what I'm doing simply for the 6% less damage taken as I have the talent), would also be helpful towards guilds that have their melee DPS weave in and out for Pounding.
And I suggested this before in the Karazhan BigWigs thread, but I'd suggest just handling Attumen's curse in the same basic way Water Tomb on Hydross is handled. This method will generate some extra warnings and may warn about a few people getting cursed you may not care about decursing though, but well, I assume most people will be able to tell which one is their tank without BigWigs telling them the tank's name.
The only one that's really hard to find a good handler for would be Remote Toy on Telonicus. You could just include all of them I suppose, but that's a fair bit of superfluous information.

I'm interested about this answer too. Same thing happens for me too. Any updates, anyone knows how can be fixed?
Solarian mark does not keep on 2 arcane tanks as it was before. Instead, one player became a 'bomb' (Baron Geddon reloaded) and explodes, taking 5-6k dmg plus doing the same to everyone nearby it (10y). Whoever gets the debuff will not take damage from falling, but people (s)he hits will, so you will kill people with 9k+ falling damage.
Besides, almost the same.
Transcriptor in a few, as soon as we get people ready on it.
Fight is way more fun, however. Al'ar, on the other way, is quite insane -- most probably bugged, meteor + 2 adds @ each 30secs is somewhat like Kael.
I think that "Phase4_trigger" was changed too,but I can't reach that phase :(
weapons_inc_trigger = "보다시피 내 무기고에는 굉장한 무기가 아주 많지.",
phase3_trigger = "네놈들을 과소평가했나 보군. 모두를 한꺼번에 상대하라는 건 불공평한 처사지만, 나의 백성도 공평한 대접을 받은 적 없기는 매한가지. 받은 대로 돌려주겠다.",
I would give my right arm for an announce option that would whisper the target of the Wrath debuff, just like the good old days of Baron Geddon and AQ. I'm getting quite sick of wiping because of sleeping players or players who refuse to use raid boss addons like BigWigs. :)
I didn't see any bars in Al'ar last night at all.
Would it be possible to add them in for the platform changes as well?
no
Just out of curiosity, why not? I'd also like to encourage the addition of the Al'ar platform changes so that we know when the adds are incoming.
Currently, I prefer BigWigs over DBM, but there are a few bars (and some other special attacks from bosses such as Maulgar) that I see are present in DBM but not in BW. Mostly for us in the raid it doesn't matter, because I don't announce, and the raid leader uses DBM to do just that, but when he's offline and I'm standin, it's a trifle disconcerting to miss those warnings.
I'm aware that you want to reduce spam, however, in some cases the spam is preferable. You could just set some of the options to default off if that's really a problem.
You're doing great work with this, and I hope you keep it up. I also hope that you can find it in yourself to add this or that :)

Cause sometimes he sticks to the same platform, making mods unreliable. Also, there is really no real use for this information in the encounter. Phase 1 is trivial to say the least.

Yeah, that's what it does now, and I don't agree with it.
It's like Attumen as well, not warning for paladin tanks -- I don't like it.
The other possibility for Void Reaver would be a range check to see whether you're in melee range or not, instead of this mana check.

EDIT: Yeah, Al'ar is officially bugged: http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.html?topicId=1778016154&sid=1
EDIT 2: Transcriptor.zip ftw, hard to chose which boss is dumber, Void "Free loot" Reaver or Solarian Loot Chick
Kaelthas's messages was changed for orthography.

You're absolutely right! \o/
Can I please keep my arm, though?
I'll have a leg instead.
