AutoPI Extended

AutoPI Extended keeps a character macro (APIE) pointed at the optimal Power Infusion target at all times — so you always cast PI on the right player without clicking through the raid frames.

⚠ AutoPI does not cast Power Infusion for you. It only maintains a macro. You press the button yourself, which keeps it fully compliant with Blizzard's protected-action restrictions.

Loads only for Priests. For every other class it does nothing — no events, no database, no macro.

How it works

Each player in the group is scored from two inputs:

• Spec priority — based on Bloodmallet Power Infusion sims (absolute DPS gained from PI), normalized so the top spec scores ≈ 1.0 and the bottom ≈ 0.0.
• Item-level weight — inspected ilvl relative to the group's computed baseline. Gear can break ties but never override a major spec difference.

The total score is specScore + ilvlScore. The player with the highest score wins.

Two spec lists, chosen automatically

• Single-target (Castingpatchwerk) — active inside raid instances.
• Multitarget / AoE (Castingpatchwerk5, 5-target) — active in Mythic+, dungeons, scenarios, and open world.

The active list switches automatically on zone/instance transitions.

Selection priority

1. Preferred-player list — named characters (set in settings) who are currently in the group. No inspect required — you chose them, so they get picked in list order.
2. Manual spec-order list — if you've set a custom drag-order in the settings panel.
3. Auto Bloodmallet list — the content-aware ranking, used as the final fallback.

On-screen HUD

A small draggable box shows:

• The Power Infusion icon (click it to target the recipient, even in combat).
• The current PI target and selection confidence (HIGH / MED / LOW, with score margin to the runner-up).
• Inspect scan progress (xx/yy DPS inspected).
• [A] button — re-announce the current target to chat on demand.
• [D] button — open the live debug window.

Toggle with /apie hud. Position is saved between sessions.

Chat announcements

After spec scanning settles, the addon announces the PI target to your group — instance chat in LFG/LFR, otherwise raid or party chat. The message is intentionally neutral (AutoPI Extended: PI → Name). The runner-up is only mentioned when scores are genuinely close. Confidence detail stays on the HUD where only you can see it.

Commands

• /autopie or /apie — open the settings panel.
• /apie debug — live debug window (spec list, DPS count, inspect coverage, ranked candidates, score breakdown). Draggable, refreshes in place.
• /apie debug print — dump the debug report to chat once.
• /apie hud — toggle the on-screen PI target box.

Settings panel

• Trinkets / spells to fold into the macro.
• Show/hide the on-screen HUD.
• Preferred-player list (one character name per line).
• Weighted scoring toggle, auto/manual baseline and K, item-level clamp.
• Spec Priority Order — Bloodmallet auto-rankings or a drag-order manual editor.

Requirements

• WoW Retail 12.0.7 (Midnight) or later.
• No external libraries required.
