Description

Highest Rank Check

Highest Rank Check is a spell-rank management addon for WoW Forever.

It detects lower-rank spells on your action bars and allows you to quickly replace them with the highest rank currently available to your character.

✨ Features

🔎 Lower-Rank Spell Detection

Highest Rank Check scans your action bars and compares the spells currently placed there against the highest ranks known by your character.

The addon identifies:

  • Spells using an older rank.
  • The current rank on the action bar.
  • The highest rank currently available.
  • Action-bar spells that can be upgraded.
  • Unknown rank information without incorrectly treating it as Rank 1.

📚 Spellbook Check Ranks

A dedicated Check Ranks button is available directly from the spellbook.

The button:

  • Appears automatically when the spellbook opens.
  • Hides automatically when the spellbook closes.
  • Runs a manual action-bar rank check.
  • Supports the available WoW Forever spellbook frame variants.

☑️ Spell Selection

Detected lower-rank spells are presented in a selection window before replacements are made.

The selection interface supports:

  • Individual spell selection.
  • Select All
  • Select None
  • Replace Selected
  • Replace All
  • Cancel

This allows you to review detected spells before making changes to your action bars.

🔄 Replace Selected Spells

Replace only the lower-rank spells you choose.

  • Replace Selected updates only the spells you have selected.
  • Uses the highest-rank spell currently available to your character.
  • Reports each replacement in chat.
  • Verifies action-bar replacement after the update.

⚡ Replace All

Use Replace All to update every detected lower-rank spell in one operation.

This is useful after learning several new spell ranks and wanting to quickly update your action bars.

🛡️ Safe Spell Replacement

Highest Rank Check uses the available WoW Forever spell APIs to perform spell replacement.

The addon also verifies action-bar slots after replacement to help ensure the expected spell was placed successfully.

🔁 Automatic Rank Checking

Highest Rank Check can automatically check your action bars when relevant spell information changes.

Automatic checking can occur when:

  • The player enters the world.
  • Known spell information changes.
  • The spellbook becomes available.
  • A manual rank check is performed.
  • The Check Ranks spellbook button is used.

Automatic checking can be enabled or disabled through the addon settings.

⌨️ Slash Commands

Highest Rank Check provides simple slash commands for manual control.

Available commands include:

  • /hrc
  • /hrc check
  • /hrc debug
  • /checkranks

⚙️ Configuration

The Options panel provides configuration for:

  • Automatic rank checking.
  • Manual rank checking.
  • Spellbook integration.
  • Addon settings and status.
