Returns information about a talent.

name, iconTexture, tier, column, rank, maxRank, isExceptional, available, previewRank, previewAvailable 
   = GetTalentInfo(tabIndex, talentIndex [, isInspect[, isPet[, groupIndex]]])

Arguments

tabIndex

number - Ranging from 1 to GetNumTalentTabs()

talentIndex

number - Ranging from 1 to GetNumTalents(tabIndex).

isInspect

boolean? = false - If true, returns info for the current inspect target (see NotifyInspect).

isPet

boolean? = false - If true, returns info for the player pet.

groupIndex

number? = 1 - Which dualspec talent group to query (1 for primary, 2 for secondary). If isInspect is false this defaults to the currently active talent group instead.

Returns

1. name

string

2. iconTexture

number : FileID

3. tier

number - The row/tier that the talent sits on.

4. column

number - The column that the talent sits on.

5. rank

number - The current amount of talent points for a talent.

6. maxRank

number - The maximum amount of talent points for a talent.

7. isExceptional

number - Returns 1 if the talent is the ultimate talent, e.g. [Penance], otherwise returns nil. Many talents can be tagged as such in a single row.

8. available

number - Supposed to return whether prerequisites are met. Always returns 1 for the player. When inspecting it is 1 if any points have been spent on it, otherwise nil.

9. previewRank

number - In talent preview mode it returns the previewed points on a talent, otherwise it returns the same as rank.

10. previewAvailable

number - Supposed to act as available in preview mode. Returns same as available because available doesn't seem to change based on points spent.

Details

• The talent index supplied to this function should not be expected to map to the placement of a talent within its tree. Callers must use the tier and column return values to determine where a queried talent is located.

Example

Prints all existing talents of your class.

for i = 1, GetNumTalentTabs() do
	for j = 1, GetNumTalents(i) do
		print(i, j, GetTalentInfo(i, j))
	end
end
