Dorrino✭✭✭✭✭There's no need to figure out anything:)
All projectiles notifications will still work.
The major hit is only to ambush and dizzying swings.
Snipes will get a notification when they are fired. Previously it was redundant.
The rest is the same.
Enjoy:P
seriously, you'd have made a great disney villain (i know you don't see yourself as such - which makes it even more apropos)...
i'm trying not to root for you - but, it's tough - i almost always wanna root for the villians
People make me look like one. This is awesome and hilarious:)

✭✭So they again failed with what they said they will do ~10 months ago when they just hid heavy attacks and did not realize all other attacks can be seen? So now they again went to hide all attacks and hid just channels? How do you just go do something and... not do it
But it is still improvement.3 -

Hopefully whatever API functionality they depended on to do their thing will have been altered or disabled with this change (if they use anything different from Miat's).This creature called a songbird. What a devious creation! This winged nuisance erodes sanity with its incessant chirping. What a brilliant form of torture!1 -
It was about time, kudos to ZOS.
Cant wait to see those who relied on Miats fail horribly & be named & shamed.

Do you know they've made a "fix" for Miat's 3 times now ? It is not that I am wanting to curb your optimism but provide a cushion for when the reality of ZOS's solution does not meet expectations . They say three times a charm but they need to do more restrictions on the TS before live to make that statement true .2 -

Literally nothing else is affected besides what's in the patch notes. Which in itself is largely irrelevant for pvp.
And considering this is what the patch notes say
"Addons will now only know about attacks that target you after they hit you in PvP areas."
The change is clearly not working as intended if there has been no change. Because this ^^ says your cheat notifications should be disabled.
Yeah, they said it was fixed and then....boom...its not....
It even STATES in the patch notes that it was fixed, but then somehow...it magically isnt?4 -

From what Dorrino is saying , the patch notes are a blatent lie. Which honestly is just....yeah.
There is fixing something in a way that people dont like, and then there is posting the patch notes, saying they finally did what people asked for, and then SUDDENLY it was a lie? That is just asanine.2 -

I hope ZOS looks at it cause I sincerely hope MIAT addon is dead (as well as other similar addons if any)3 -
Dorrino✭✭✭✭✭Again. To be clear and to incite a new wave of pseudo-educated complains^^:
The notifications consist of 2 distinct parts:
1. Those that rely on ACTION_RESULT_BEGIN result type of EVENT_COMBAT_EVENT.
These allow(-ed) to track the start of channeled (read cast time) abilities targeted at the player.
Examples: start of snipe, ambush, dizzying swing, dark flare, all heavy attacks etc single target channels.
The addon show(-ed) those as an icon that is being filled up from the bottom.
This part was explicitly disabled as per the patch notes (and limited personal testing).
2. Those that rely on ACTION_RESULT_EFFECT_GAINED result type of EVENT_COMBAT_EVENT.
These track the moment a single target projectile is fired against the player.
Examples: crystal frag, snipe again, flame reach, assassin's will etc.
The addon shows them as a pop up notification with dark background that quickly fades out. It is accompanied with a sound.
This part has nothing to do with the part 1 and was not affected in any shape of form in this update both in the patch notes and in testing.
So what exactly will be different after the update goes live:
You won't see:
1. heavy attacks of any sort,
2. ambush and dizzying swing before they land,
3. start of snipes, dark flares, crystal frags.
You will see:
All ranged attacks when they fire. Including snipes, flares and frags.
In the result dizzying swings will be easier to land. Ambush from stealth will be easier to land. Charged heavy attacks will be easier to land.
These are all the changes in the current update.
Now please have fun:)Edited by Dorrino on January 9, 2018 1:50AM16 -

I think my days in cyro are over if they dont fix it. I do not expect tolerance of an addon that destroys a build completely, and then they have they have the audacity to say its fixed, but it really isnt?7 -

So the charge up is gone but the travel time notification is still there. They dramatically need to change the wording in the patch notes then.10 -

✭✭✭✭So while disabling the cast bars is a step towards the right direction (combat advantage goes from 1s+ extra time to react/plan for an incoming attack to <1s in most cases), I still think no notifications should be shown for the travel times of projectiles that you can't actually see due to camera angle.
That said, the cast bar being shown was/is definitely the worst thing about the addon and I'm happy it's finally getting fixed.7 -

Now that Miats doesn't work those "things" won't be available to everyone, but instead only for a small private elite.4 -

It wasn't even a cast bar:)
It just looked like one.
The addon only received 1 event - 'charge-up started'. The addon never received an event 'charge-up interrupted' for instance.
In any case i think if this thing alone makes a difference for some people - i'm more than happy with this result:)2 -

✭✭✭✭✭If anyone with TC loaded could post a short video with Miat's running and a few variable attacks from stealth it would be most appricated . I can not as somethings from the update is over heating my cpu and cannot identify why .0
