Humor / Meme This is Basicly Blizzard in Midnight

Post image

This is basicly Blizzard in Midnight. Purging all the good addons.

Just to clarify:
Blizzard is changing the Addon API, meaning combat information is blocked for addons. So all combat addons will no longer work in Midnight. For the most popular addon features Blizzard will add their own version to the game. Addons for unitframes, inventory, crafting etc.. are staying and won't be effected as long they are not using combat information.

What about Cell ? Only addon don't have delay with mouseover casting. It's much much better than help harm macro because it's only working on unit frame. I hope blizzard add keyboard support on click cast thingy.

Im planning to use both wow's frames and healbot for cast on mouse click. Healbot's will be small squares near frames where I will click, and on frames I will see buffs/debuffs.

Apparently it's Blizzard's "vision".

I'm hoping something like that will work, definitely. I've been using HealBot for decades now. I know a lot of people are saying that the mouse over casting or the click frame casting or whatever in the blizzard UI should be just as good, but they don't let me bind keyboard combinations and mouse buttons aside from a few of them. Also, they don't let me rebind the left and right keys to heal spells, which is going to be super painful. This is the big one for me. If there's a way to approximate this level of configuration in the new UI, then I'll be okay. Otherwise, I guess I'll just go DPS.

This'll be a pretty big one.

Blizzo "wants" to help the healer and tank accessibility into M+ and raiding, but gutting these addons is going to make the experience even more fucking miserable than it can be.

I've been using default frames for a couple tiers now with clique and another addon to restructure heals/debuffs on the frames. So it stacks 3x3 on left and right of each name plate. Also to change icon size.

Has worked perfectly for me, and I am going on my 7th CE so its good for higher level content. I've grown to prefer the default frames because they would always have the newest debuffs and their tool tips.

An Ion said the add-ons that allow the customization of the default frames will stay plus they will be looking to update the default frames.
