Midnight Pre-Rares

Midnight Pre-Rares – Rotation Tracker & Smart Waypoint

Midnight Pre-Rares is a lightweight addon designed to help players track and farm the Midnight pre-patch rare rotation efficiently. It provides real-time rotation tracking, a visual countdown timer, automatic waypoint management, and an on-screen guidance arrow — all without requiring external addons.

Key Features

✔ Rare Rotation Tracking
Automatically detects active rares using vignettes, nameplates, and target data. The addon keeps track of the current position in the rotation and advances automatically.

✔ 5-Minute Spawn Timer
Includes a looping 5:00 → 0:00 countdown timer that resets every rotation cycle, helping players anticipate the next spawn.

✔ Smart Waypoint System

·         At the start of each cycle, the waypoint points to the current rare.

·         When the timer reaches 4:00 remaining, the waypoint automatically switches to the next rare in the rotation.
This prevents confusion while still allowing players to prepare early for the next spawn.

✔ On-Screen Guidance Arrow (No TomTom Required)
A movable arrow appears during the last 40 seconds before the next spawn, guiding you directly toward the active waypoint location.
The arrow hides automatically when you reach the destination or when no target is active.

✔ Auto-Advance at Low HP
If the current rare drops to 3% HP or less (when health data is available), the addon advances the rotation early to keep tracking accurate.

✔ Spawn Schedule Window
Use /mpr times to open a scrollable window showing the full spawn schedule:

·         Based on US Eastern Time (ET)

·         Converts automatically to your selected GMT time zone

·         Includes quick GMT selector buttons

✔ Slash Commands

·         /mpr lock – Lock the tracker frame

·         /mpr unlock – Unlock the tracker frame

·         /mpr reset – Reset current rotation state

·         /mpr set <index|npcID> – Manually sync rotation

·         /mpr wp – Force waypoint to current rare

·         /mpr times – Show full spawn schedule

·         /mpr et -300 or /mpr et -240 – Set base ET offset (EST/EDT)

Why Use This Addon?

Midnight Pre-Rares removes the guesswork from the event by clearly showing:

·         Which rare is active

·         Which rare is next

·         When it will spawn

·         Where you need to go

Perfect for players farming achievements, mounts, or collectibles during the pre-patch event.
