Boney World Bosses

A WoW Classic addon + companion app that automatically detects world boss activity (Kazzak and Doomwalker) and reports it to your Discord server. When you're near a boss fight, it picks up the action from your combat log and sends an alert to Discord within seconds. It can also report boss kills with layer and timing info, and keep your server updated on active layers.

 

In-Game Setup

Enable Advanced Combat Logging

This is required for the addon to detect boss fights. You only need to do this once:

  1. Open WoW and log into a character
  2. Press Escape > System > Network
  3. Check Advanced Combat Logging

Start Combat Logging

Type /combatlog in the chat window. You should see:

Combat being logged to Logs/WoWCombatLog.txt

The addon's Scout mode does this automatically when you log in, but running it manually the first time ensures the log file is created.


Testing

Verify Everything Is Working

  1. Make sure the bridge is running (double-click your shortcut)
  2. Log into WoW
  3. Type /bwb status to check the addon is active -- you should see Scout and Reporter both enabled

Quick Test (No Boss Required)

You can test the full reporting flow without finding an actual world boss:

  1. Type /bwb test kill in chat -- this arms test mode
  2. Kill any creature (a boar, a critter, anything)
  3. A popup appears with the test kill details
  4. Click Report Kill (this triggers a /reload)
  5. The bridge picks it up and sends a test alert to Discord (marked as a test)

If you enjoy this add-on, and want to support a few dollars, proceeds will go to server costs and my unending desire for more caffeine.
