Monitoring for Ailments (poi / dis / cur / detri)

My UI (working version of vert for our server) has a little Red indicator anytime a character gets debuffed.. Does anyone know the syntax via MQ2 to notice this?.. I was thinking it would be similar to watching the discipline window to see if a disc is active or not.

I was just thinking it wouild be easier to monitor for ANY sort of ailment and just use Galadriel's rather than writing for every individual debuff.

Not every ailment can be cured with Galadriel -> rezeffect, bosseffects like silence from Fevarn, ...
Maybe you can find something useful/working with MQ2Netheal (netcure commands).

I personally check only for two debuff, all other debuffs are not worth to cast any cursespell imho.

(${Me.Buff[Creeping Doom].ID} || ${Me.Buff[Blight of Hate].ID}) -> starting curepart/Galadriel

It took some digging around, but I figured it out, but it's only useful if you use the working version of VERT UI for our server.. And it's relatively convoluted:

${Window[PlayerWindow].FirstChild.Next.Next.Next.Next.Tooltip} will return the string as follows:

If debuffed in ANY way: "You are weakened and cannot rest currently"

If free of all ailments: "You are not in combat and may rest at any time"

Even though these tooltips suggest it's a trigger for being in combat or not, that isn't how it actually works on the VERT UI.. It only changes if you have a negative debuff on you, whether you're in combat or not. So it will work for my purposes.

I just search the string for "weakened", and if found, cast Galadriel's every 5 seconds or so.

Yes, I know Galadriel's doesn't cleanse EVERYTHING, but it comes darn close, and even if your chain spamming it, it won't disrupt swinging / meleeDPS.

Somehow I doubt anyone else will find value in this, but figured I'd post it anyway :) Cheers !
