Rotation helper for WoW Classic Hardcore: shows the next 3 spells, your keybind, why to use them, and survival alerts. AoE or single target, automatic.
HardcoreRotation is a rotation helper for WoW Classic Hardcore (Classic Era, 1.15.x), inspired by the retail "one button" assistant.
It shows the spell you should press right now in a big icon, the next three spells after it, and a short reason ("Finisher", "Apply the debuff", "Execute range"...). It is built for leveling, and it puts survival first: when your health drops, the icon turns red and suggests your best way out.
It only suggests. Blizzard does not allow addons to cast spells for you in combat, so you still press the key. HardcoreRotation tells you which one.
Features
- Next spell icon with your keybind and cooldown swipe, plus up to 3 next spells (choose 1, 2 or 3).
- Why this spell: a short reason under the icon. Hover it for the full spell tooltip.
- AoE or single target, automatically: counts the enemies fighting you and switches to AoE spells when there are several. A label shows the current mode. You can force Automatic / Single target / AoE from the menu, with
/hcr mode, or with a keybind. - Action bar glow: the matching button on your bars glows. Works with the default bars, Bartender4, ElvUI, Dominos and other LibActionButton bars.
- Hardcore alerts:
- Red, pulsing: low health. Heals, shields, Evasion, Ice Block, Divine Shield, Vanish, Feign Death, Last Stand, Healing Stream Totem...
- Purple: interrupt the cast (Kick, Pummel, Counterspell, Earth Shock, Bash...).
- Blue: missing buffs, armors, seals, auras, aspects, weapon imbues, and cures for poison or disease.
- All 9 classes, leveling oriented:
- Druids follow their form (cat, bear, caster), warriors their stance.
- The spec is read from your talents.
- Always uses your highest known rank.
- Waiting mode: when nothing is ready, the next attack shows in gray with "Ready in Xs" or "Waiting for resources".
- Languages: English, Português (pt-BR) and Español.
