Pretty much exactly the same thing as the addon. Checks to see if the eclipse buff is active and how long it has left versus the amount of time it takes to cast the fastest spell (in this case that would be wrath) that can cause the buff to proc again.

The addon does a few more detailed calculations than that but thats the general idea,

Actually no, the only other visual is the fact that your buff no longer appears, i'm not sure what visual you actually want, since this runs almost transparantly in the background and you carry on with your normal rotation/priority system while it ensures that your receive maximum uptime from your eclipse buffs.____Anything visual would most likely be a waste of screen real estate.

[...] mind, this is the lesser of the two issues. I’ve seen a lot of people commenting on posts by Macbook/Ballerkin and Graylo about how they refuse to use this addon because it “does something automatically [...]

Try this macro:
/run local _,_,c,_,_,_,a = UnitBuff("player","Eclipse");local _,_,_,_,_,_,b = GetSpellInfo(48465);if a and not string.find(c,'Orange') then if a-GetTime() < b/1000 then CancelUnitBuff("player","Eclipse") end end;

Mastarwe is right. This is a cheating addon. You can't do this in a macro because the addon makes a decision for you and acts on its own. It clearly violates blizzards addon policy. I am pretty sure blizzard will apply a fix soon that will break the functionality of this addon.

Meh. If a macro can do it, I can't see it as being anywhere near cheating.

I've noticed myself rising on the DPS charts lately since I've been chaining Solar Eclipses immediately after my Lunar ones.

Cheating is a bit of a strong word for this i think, if it were cheating then i'm pretty sure it would be outlawed by Blizzard in next to no time but each to their own, i personally dont think this is anything more than an extra convenience to not having to macro a

I'm liking this and i'm going to try it in conjunction with Squawk and Awe and see what i get out of it.

Thanks for the heads up on this one, also added to the frontpage on my site.
