IncBGS — Battleground Reporter
IncBGS is a lightweight, no-dependency addon that adds a quick-report bar to your screen during Battlegrounds. With a single click you can instantly announce incoming enemies and their location to your team — no typing required.
Features
- 8 one-click buttons: Incoming 1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 / 5+, Help, and Clear
- Each message automatically appends the current sub-zone name (e.g. INCOMING 3 - Lumber Mill)
- Fully compatible with WoW 12.x (Midnight) — works where other similar addons fail
- Bar automatically shows on BG enter and hides when you leave
- Minimap icon — left click to show/hide the bar (integrates with LibDBIcon if already loaded by another addon, zero footprint otherwise)
- Hold the lock button and drag to reposition the bar anywhere on screen
- H/V toggle button built into the bar — switch between horizontal and vertical layout instantly
- Optional Raid Warning echo — sends the message to /rw as well
- Fully saved position and settings across sessions and relogs
