Only-Hero
An addon that lets you know when you are the only member of your group who can cast a bloodlust effect (Lust / Hero / Time Warp / Primal Rage / Fury of the Aspects).
Created by Runningbird.
Features
- Popup window appears when your group fills via the Dungeon Finder or an LFG List (premade) group acceptance, showing the bloodlust availability of the newly formed group.
- Detects bloodlust-capable classes:
- Shaman — Bloodlust / Heroism
- Mage — Time Warp
- Hunter — Primal Rage (Ferocity pet)
- Evoker — Fury of the Aspects
- Warns when you are the only one who can cast a bloodlust effect.
- Optionally warns when nobody in the group can.
- Color-coded class names, configurable minimum group-member level, and raid-chat announcement support.
Usage
The addon is automatic — no setup required. When your group fills via group finder, a popup (or chat message) reports the bloodlust situation.
Manual commands:
/onlyheroor/oh— run a check now/onlyhero options— open the options window
Configuration
Options are available under Esc → Options → AddOns → Only-Hero(or via /onlyhero options):

Dependencies
This addon relies on the Ace3 libraries. During development the libraries are loaded from your existing AddOns folder; for a standalone release you should embed them into Libs/ when packaging (e.g. via the WoW Addon packager).
Required libraries:
- LibStub
- AceAddon-3.0
- AceConsole-3.0
- AceEvent-3.0
- AceTimer-3.0
- AceDB-3.0
- AceConfig-3.0
- AceConfigDialog-3.0
- AceGUI-3.0
Installation
- Download the latest release.
- Extract the
OnlyHerofolder into yourWorld of Warcraft/_retail_/Interface/AddOns/. - Restart WoW (or reload your UI with
/reload) and enable the addon.
Notes
- Hunter detection is class-based because WoW does not expose which pet another hunter currently has out. Use the Count Hunters option to control whether hunters are treated as bloodlust-capable.
- Bloodlust effects share a 10-minute cooldown debuff (Sated / Exhaustion / Temporal Displacement) on all affected players.
