722 - Boss % on wipe

What version of the Big Wigs are you using?
Latest Rev. 12692

Just a simple addition of boss % when you wipe currently just says how long the duration of the fight was but was wondering if we could get the % the boss was at when the group wipes. Im sure this has been asked before if it has sorry.

    I don't think thats a good idea. It's much better to know the actual HP rather than attempt to assume what people might want to know after a wipe. People can use WCL for that kind of deep analysis.

    Some people have suggested ways to improve it. Just consider this ticket not being closed as a good sign. :p

    How about check alive persent of raiders, and then 15-18 members of 20 are dead just snapshot boss hp?
    Or it will be too resource-intensive?

    Makes sense, that's a lot of overhead and extra coding that's not necessary thanks for the reply.

    It sounds like a simple addition, but it isn't. Adding this would actually be pretty complicated. It would involve constantly checking and saving the boss health so that you can display it when you wipe (since the boss has despawned, you can't access the health pool).

    Then you need custom code for every encounter that involves multiple bosses, and deciding how that percentage should be displayed e.g. as a whole, individually, etc.
