Description
MEGA — Hardcore WoW Quality of Life
MEGA is a quality-of-life addon for WoW Classic Era Hardcore. It won't carry you — but it'll make sure you don't die
because you missed an aggro flash, ignored a world buff callout, or forgot to track your soul shards.

Features
Aggro Alert
Red vignette bleeds in from the screen edges the moment you pull or hold aggro. Plays a customizable sound. Adjustable
intensity (drama slider) and separate on/off controls for visual, audio, and toast notification.
World Buff Detector
Monitors LFG, Guild, Say, Yell, Whisper, General, and Trade chat for world buff announcements. Recognizes Onyxia,
Nefarian, Rend/Warchief's Blessing, Songflower, Spirit of Zandalar, DMT/King Buffs, Summons, and Portals — plus
compound callouts like "triple wb" and "double wb."
- Confidence scoring filters out questions, reactions, cooldown talk, recruitment spam, and scheduling chatter — not
just keyword matching
- Countdown timers: track any buff with a live timer (supports "in Xm", "X:XX ST", "soon")
- Dedup: one entry per buff regardless of how many people mention it; mention count tracked
- Toast notification + sound on new detections
- Resizable panel with Track and Whisper buttons per entry
LFG Chat Watcher
Two independent modes:
- LFG Mode — you're looking for a group. Alerts when a group in the LFG channel is seeking your role for a dungeon on
your watch list.
- LFM Mode — you're recruiting. Alerts when a player advertises themselves as your needed role for a dungeon on your
watch list.
Resizable panel logs all matches with timestamps and one-click whisper.
Range Overlay
Red tint on action bar buttons when your target is out of range. Covers main bar and all four multi-bars. Updates
every 0.12s. Opacity is adjustable.
Guildie Alert
Green directional arrow appears on the screen edge pointing toward any guildie or friend that enters nameplate range.
Plays a sound on first sighting per session. Separate toggles for guildies, friends, and favorites.
Drowning Alert
Plays a sound the moment the breath bar starts. Never ignore a bad swim again.
Soul Shard Manager (Warlocks)
Set a cap for how many soul shards you want to carry. Manual delete-to-cap button or auto-delete on bag update. Toast
notification when shards are trimmed. Per-character setting.
Pet Auto-Cast Toggles (Hunters / Warlocks)
Pill buttons anchored below your pet action bar showing ON/OFF state for each auto-cast ability. Click to toggle.
Supports WoW keybind system — bind them in the standard keybinds menu.
Soundboard
Floating grid of meme and faction sounds. Broadcasts to your group so everyone hears it in-game. Per-sound mute,
favorites, volume slider. Includes: Leeroy Jenkins, For the Horde/Alliance, Surprise, Bruh, Fatality, GG, and more.
MEGA v2.4 — Trinket Rotator
The big one this update: full trinket management. MEGA now has an ornate trinket bar with three zones:
- Sockets — both trinket slots as big click-to-fire buttons. Left-click uses the trinket (combat-safe, composes with
your macros), right-click pins the slot so auto-rotate leaves it alone. A gold glow ring means "ready to fire now."
- Up Next — the live rotation queue. Every on-use trinket in your pool, sorted by when it could actually fire (its own
cooldown vs. the 30s equip cooldown), soonest first. What you see is exactly the order it rotates.
- Bench — trinkets pulled from rotation, plus passives (never swapped). One shift-click to rejoin the queue.
Auto-rotate swaps a used, expired on-use trinket for the next ready one — out of combat, automatically. Drag trinkets
from your bags onto the bar to build the pool. Fire via socket click, a real WoW keybind (Key Bindings → AddOns →
MEGA), a secure fire-key that triggers trinket + your action-bar spell in one press, or /mega trinket macro for a
paste-ready cast macro.
Also in 2.4:
- Buff panel: long buff names now truncate cleanly instead of running under the Track/Whisper buttons
- LFG panel: clear button moved to its own toolbar row, no longer overlaps the title
- Updated for client 1.15.9
