Paladin Blessings

Paladin Blessings is a lightweight World of Warcraft addon designed for Paladins who want faster access to their most important utility spells directly on party and raid frames.

Instead of forcing you to hunt through action bars, mouseover macros, or target frames during high-pressure moments, Paladin Blessings places compact, clickable spell icons directly beside each party member. This makes it easier to quickly use key Paladin support abilities such as Blessing of Protection, Blessing of Freedom, Blessing of Sacrifice, Cleanse, Lay on Hands, and Intercession when your group needs them most.

The addon is built around the idea that Paladin utility is powerful, but often underused because the right target and the right spell need to be selected quickly. Paladin Blessings helps keep those tools visible, organized, and ready.

Features

Party and Raid Frame Utility Buttons

Paladin Blessings adds spell buttons directly to supported party and raid frames, allowing you to cast important utility spells on group members without needing to manually target them first.

Supported abilities include:

Blessing of Protection
Blessing of Freedom
Blessing of Sacrifice
Cleanse / Cleanse Toxins
Lay on Hands
Blessing of Spellwarding
Intercession

The addon automatically associates each button with the correct unit frame, allowing fast click-casting behavior for Paladin support spells.

Smart Visual Feedback

Paladin Blessings provides visual indicators to help you understand when a spell is useful, unavailable, or blocked.

Icons may visually respond based on things like:

Spell range
Cooldown state
Forbearance
Cleanseable debuffs
Known / unknown spells
Target death state for Intercession
Recommendation priority

This helps reduce wasted casts and makes it easier to recognize when a spell should be used.

Intercession Support

The addon includes dedicated support for Intercession, giving Paladins a clear visual tool for battle resurrection opportunities.

When enabled, the Intercession button can appear for dead party or raid members and visually indicate whether the spell is available, usable, or on cooldown.

This is especially useful in dungeons, raids, and progression content where quick battle resurrection decisions matter.

Customizable Display

Paladin Blessings includes several display options so you can adjust the addon to fit your UI.

You can customize:

Icon size
Icon spacing
Button position
Layout mode
Cooldown style
Theme / border appearance
Preview display
Intercession visibility

Whether you prefer a compact minimal setup or larger high-visibility utility buttons, the addon can be adjusted to match your frame layout.

Isolated Preview Mode

Paladin Blessings includes an isolated preview mode that lets you test icon size, spacing, position, layout, and appearance without relying on an active party or raid group.

This makes it easier to configure the addon safely from the options menu before entering real content.

Cooldown Display Options

The addon supports visual cooldown feedback so you can quickly tell whether an ability is ready or unavailable.

Depending on your settings, cooldowns can be displayed using styles such as:

Radial cooldown
Flat dark overlay
Numeric cooldown support
Desaturated unavailable icons

This helps keep your utility buttons informative without adding unnecessary clutter.

Designed for Paladin Utility Gameplay

Paladins bring some of the strongest defensive and support tools in the game, but these spells are only valuable when used quickly and on the right player.

Paladin Blessings is designed to help with moments like:

Using Blessing of Protection on a player targeted by dangerous physical damage
Using Blessing of Freedom on a slowed or rooted ally
Using Blessing of Sacrifice to reduce incoming damage on a teammate
Cleansing harmful debuffs
Saving a critical target with Lay on Hands
Battle rezzing a dead party member with Intercession

The goal is not to play the class for you, but to make your available utility easier to see, access, and use.

Lightweight and Focused

Paladin Blessings is built to stay focused on one job: making Paladin utility easier to use on party and raid members.

It is not intended to replace a full raid frame addon, healing addon, or complete click-casting suite. Instead, it works as a focused Paladin-specific utility layer for players who want faster access to their blessings and support spells.

Good For
