Description
BossBrief is a compact boss briefing addon for dungeons and raids.
It scans the current instance through the Encounter Journal and turns boss information into a short, readable in-game briefing with role-based instructions for Tank, Heal and DPS.
Instead of opening the Adventure Guide before every pull, BossBrief gives you a clear popup with the key mechanics you actually need during the fight.
Features
- Automatic boss popup
Open the briefing when targeting a boss, in combat, or on pull.
- Condensed role-based tips
Separate lines for Tank, Heal and DPS, plus a short overall summary.
- Key mechanics and important spells
BossBrief extracts the most useful parts of the Encounter Journal and highlights the relevant abilities.
- Group chat broadcast
Share the briefing in Party, Raid or Instance chat.
Multiple formats available: Compact, Standard or Roles.
- Leader / assistant restriction
Optional setting to allow automatic broadcast only for the group leader or raid assistants.
- Custom popup styles
Choose between Standard, Premium and Mythic+ display styles.
- Full visual customization
Accent color, background opacity, popup size, auto-hide duration, and dedicated colors for Tank / Heal / DPS.
- Per-spec profiles
Save different settings depending on your specialization.
- Manual boss overrides
Edit or replace a boss briefing in-game when you want cleaner or more practical instructions than the default journal text.
