Ovale Spell Priority is a rotation-helper addon that shows you what spell or ability you should use in order to maximize your damage.

It displays one or more icons that show the cooldown of an action. The action is conditionally defined through a user-defined script, e.g. you may display either Corruption if the DoT is not on your target or Shadow Bolt if the Corruption DoT is already on your target.

Default scripts are based on SimulationCraft. You may also customize the default script to suit your needs (see [Documentation][]) or use scripts made by other users. Tank scripts based on guides from Icy Veins are maintained by the Ovale_TankScripts addon.

Please use the Discord Server to submit scripts or discuss them. If you want to report bugs, use the ticket manager. You may contribute code on our Github project or help with translation.

See the video of a survival hunter using Ovale during Wrath of the Lich King.

FAQ

How closely are the default scripts based on SimulationCraft?

The SimulationCraft APL language and the Ovale script language are functionally very similar and concepts from one can be translated into the other in a very direct and mechanical way. For all intents and purposes, the default scripts are the SimulationCraft APLs imported into the game and displayed visually.

Why is the key binding displayed for an action wrong?

You may be running an action bar addon, e.g., Bartender4, etc., that does not use the Blizzard action bar frames. The currently supported action bars are the default UI and Dominos.

Why don't my abilities flash on my action bars?

You may be running an action bar addon, e.g., Bartender4, etc., that does not use the Blizzard action bar frames. The currently supported action bars are the default UI and Dominos.

Why is the icon sometimes red?

The cooldown that is displayed in an icon is not always the true action cooldown. If this cooldown is longer than the action cooldown, then the icon is red. In most cases, it means that if you use this action too soon, then you will overwrite or clip a DoT, which may not be what you want.

Why can't I click on the icon to cast the spell?

Blizzard does not allow this. Only a predefined sequence of spells can be bound to an action icon and this sequence can not change in combat.

On my low-level character, there is nothing at all.

You need to reach level 10 and choose a specialization. However, be aware that the default Ovale scripts are tuned for max-level characters and you may be missing key abilities at low levels that are assumed to exist. If the default script is not working for you, you will need to find or write a script more appropriate for your character's level.
