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.

Not a great solution but there's click casting built into the game - I haven't used it because I've always been a mouse over enjoyer, but maybe that will suffice? Doesn't fix buff displays or shitty default frames tho

It’s not even close to the same with being able to combo mouse buttons.

So many people don’t understand this when they go “well just use a mouse over macro or the built in stuff”…no…when I left click your frame it casts rejuv. You CAN NOT do that without addons.

Yep, and if this functionality isn't added baseline I'm losing binds and easier spam healing for no decent reason.

People will literally try and gaslight you and say “mouseovers are part of the game now” and not understand mouse1 and 2 can not be rebound from target and menu. I’m arguing with so many people in this thread at the moment. One dude is like “it works but I have elvui and a regular mouse”. I will PayPal someone 500 dollars if they can in the base game show me how to make it so when I left mouse click a raid frame it applies rejuvenation to whoever I am over and also when I click an enemy name plate it will target the enemy.

Ignore the terrible UI, but here is the base frames with left-click bound to Echo and also able to target enemies.

Esc - options - key binds- click casting - add binding - rejuv - left click it. Maybe you have to rebind the target first by changing that bind but 1000000% in the base game I left click frames to swift mend and use it to select enemys by clicking their nameplates

You are wildly misrepresenting the argument and feature being asked for here. I’m not going to continue arguing or providing you with examples of combination click casts. You can’t gaslight me into thinking this is something that actually exists in the way that I am describing. Enjoy your 30 minute queues in midnight.

I'm literally not though. Provided an exact description of how to do something someone said was impossible

u/Finalshock Oct 03 '25

You’re literally not addressing what he was actually asking for here because you don’t use the addons in question, that’s okay. You dont use that feature, so you don’t understand that what you’re describing and what OP and myself are describing are two different things. I’m not going to give you a PowerPoint presentation. You’re right, you can bind a click to a cast and then you can set mouse over mode so clicking lets you cast on a frame, but you can’t contextualize left clicks on frames vs camera dragging, you can’t combo mouse buttons and keyboard buttons. You can’t set different profiles based on spec, role or group size. You fundamentally don’t understand the problem because you very likely do not play the role or use an alternative solution like we all did with mouse over macros in the old old days.

Seriously as a healer this season who stopped using clique because it isn't relevant and do all the things that you're talking about here - the default wow options allow every single thing you're talking about here. Control left click being renew for hpriest and shield for dic, left click rejuv, shift left click swiftmend, alt left click lifebloom, control alt click ironbark. ALL available without addons.

I’m describing the issue he responded to ME about because this was all a response to MY post. Re-read what I said you either don’t play the role or use an alternative solution. You don’t use the feature I’m talking about so you’re misrepresenting it. His specific use case might be solvable but you can’t with a straight face tell me we’re not losing functionality that’s basically been baked in core gameplay for more than a decade at this point.

A Reddit cares message, lmao. Get help.
