Modifier
Requirements
- Learned Disease Cleansing Totem; the source records its first rank at level 38. Each higher rank must be learned separately.
- Learned Poison Cleansing Totem; the source records its first rank at level 22. Each higher rank must be learned separately.
- Requirements apply to the branch you choose; other unlearned modifier branches do not prevent use of an available action.
Known limitations
- Research-supported design for beta 1.60.1.70009; no recorded in-client macro tests. English spell names require localization on other clients.
- Modifier keybindings can intercept the combination. Spell selection is manual; an unlearned or unavailable modifier action does not fall back to the default spell.
- Learn and choose each totem separately. The extraction does not fully document elemental totem quest/item prerequisites; verify them in your current client. Placement and effect radius depend on your position and the actual spell.
- Totem pulses and their recipients are game-controlled. The macro does not inspect debuffs, promise an immediate dispel, or choose disease versus poison.
Notes
- Spell IDs identify the sourced first-rank reference; unranked names request the learned rank selected by the client. A spellbook tab is not a specialization lock.
- Talent and level records are provisional beta extraction, not proof of spell acquisition.
