Shadowstrike alteration

[lukep]

This addon changes Shadowstrike in several ways, to make it act more like a normal critical hit.

Shadowstrikes are altered to be able to:
- trigger Off Balance
- benefit from +critical damage multipliers, such as from Lethality, weapons of Ruin, or Dahktun's Gauntlets
- spells can trigger Corona and Blood Fury, as well as regaining mana from the Staff of Archmage Tarelion (?)

The description of Shadowstrike has not been updated. For example, a bonus crit damage of 30% will still show up as "doing 180% damage", even though it will do more than that in most cases.

Note: This addon overloads Combat.lua, which is very bad for compatibility. It will conflict with addons that change/add combat effects (eg. many new classes).

Oh my, this should enter the main code base!

Hey,

Will this addon work with b38 if I change the ini.lua file config?

[lukep]

Almost certainly not, as I overloaded the entire Combat.lua file. I'll update this to b38 when it comes out for mac, but if you want this functionality, it is quite easy to copy/paste the altered critical hit code into a copy of b38's Combat.lua file, and use that instead (I'm just hesitant to do it myself, due to the difficulty in testing for bugs).
