KickLink
KickLink is a lightweight interrupt tracker for World of Warcraft: Midnight. When an enemy cast is interrupted, KickLink places a cooldown indicator next to that enemy's nameplate.
This makes it easier to see where an interrupt was used and when it may become available again without replacing your existing nameplates.

Interrupt Source Limitations
World of Warcraft: Midnight protects combat-sensitive information with Secret Values.
KickLink can always detect that an enemy cast was interrupted, but Blizzard may prevent addons from identifying which group member performed the interrupt. KickLink displays a generic interrupt indicator and uses a fallback cooldown.
The local player's interrupt can still be detected accurately.
This is a Blizzard API limitation rather than a KickLink bug.
Compatibility
- World of Warcraft Retail
- Midnight
- Interface version 12.1

- Designed to coexist with nameplate customization addons
