Aari's Combat Reminders

Forgetting when to use your cooldowns? Never pressing a defensive? Eating every dodgeable mechanic? Set up reminders that are either text, icons or TTS (or all 3!) to help you improve as a player!

Description

Aari's Combat Reminders - Need help, got a question or a suggestion? Join the Discord!

Timed on-screen reminders for boss encounters, per class, spec, and boss.

 

⚠ Warning: Ability Cues are currently HIGHLY EXPERIMENTAL

Some, most or all of the boss abilities may not be accurate or work correctly as intended. Due to Blizzard's API changes this makes it difficult to always ensure they will 100% work without fail.


What It Does

Aari's Combat Reminders sends timed text alerts on screen based on a schedule you set up in advance. You choose what the message says, when it appears, and which spell icon to show alongside it, and ACR handles the rest automatically every pull.

It knows which class and spec you're playing. Switch specs and your profile swaps automatically. Every boss has its own independent list per spec, so nothing overlaps between setups.

How It Works

When a boss is pulled, ACR checks whether your active class and spec has a profile set up for that boss. If it does, it schedules every enabled cue as a timer. When the timer hits the timer you have set up, the alert appears on screen for the duration you set, then fades out. If multiple alerts fire close together they stack downward from your anchor point, sliding up smoothly as each one expires.

Cooldown conflict detection runs every time you open the config or change a cue. It reads your current talent loadout, applies any cooldown reductions from purchased talents by parsing tooltip text, and flags any entry where the same spell is scheduled before it could realistically be back off cooldown.

(Cooldown conflict detection requires an English client, I'm sorry!)

Works for:

The Voidspire

The Dreamrift

March on Quel'Danas
