Poly Focus Assist

Simple Mage Polymorph Utility which allows you to set a focus target for your Poly target while continuing to DPS the main target, with a quick one button/click action to Re-Poly if it breaks

Poly Focus Assist

Polymorph focus for Classic Era Mages.

Classic Era has no focus target. Poly Focus Assist emulates one: store the mob you want to crowd control, keep DPSing your own target, and re-Polymorph the stored mob with one click or one key. You are then returned to your previous target automatically.

How it works

  1. Target a hostile mob out of combat and click Set (or press your Set key).
  2. The frame shows the mob's portrait, name and Polymorph timer.
  3. Left-click the frame to target the stored mob.
  4. Right-click the frame (or press your Poly key) to Polymorph the stored mob, then jump back to whatever you were targeting before.

Left-click, right-click and the Poly and Target keys all work in combat, because they use secure macros. They keep working even if the frame is hidden.

Features

  • Sheep, Pig or Turtle: pick your Polymorph form with the spell icons on the frame. Sheep casts your highest known rank. Your selection is saved.
  • Polymorph timer: shows whether your Polymorph is on the stored mob, with a countdown bar.
  • 3D portrait of the stored mob, with an optional emblem watermark.
  • Clears itself when the stored mob dies.
  • Safety first: if the stored mob can't be found, the macro never Polymorphs your current target.
  • Movable and lockable: drag the title bar to move it, resize it from the menu, hide or show it with the minimap button or a key.
  • Key bindings panel: set all keys in one place with /pf keys. They also appear under Poly Focus Assist in the game's Key Bindings screen.
  • Optional mouseover key: Polymorph whatever your cursor is over, independent of the stored target. Entirely optional.

Slash commands

Everything is available on the frame itself, so you never need a slash command.

Command What it does
/pf set / /pf clear Store or forget the Poly target
/pf show / /pf hide Show or hide the frame
/pf sheep / pig / turtle Choose the Polymorph form
/pf lock / /pf unlock Lock or unlock dragging
/pf reset Reset position and size
/pf keys Open the key bindings panel
/pf options Open the options page
/pf debug Print spell and macro details for troubleshooting

Known limits (please read)

  • Targeting is by mob name. The game can't target a specific mob by ID during combat, so if several mobs share a name, the game picks one of them and it may not be the one you stored. The optional mouseover key avoids this.
  • Set, Clear and form changes need to be out of combat. WoW doesn't allow secure macros to be rewritten mid-fight. If you change the form in combat, it applies when combat ends.
  • Showing, hiding, moving and resizing the frame are also blocked in combat and are applied afterwards. Your Poly and Target keys still work while the frame is hidden.
  • Classic Era only (1.15.x). Not tested on Season of Discovery, Hardcore realms or other Classic versions.

Troubleshooting

  • Frame not visible? Click the minimap button, or type /pf reset.
  • Wrong Polymorph form? Type /pf debug and post the output when you report a bug.
  • Keys not firing? Check them with /pf keys and make sure no other addon uses the same key.

Bug reports and ideas are welcome. Please include the output of /pf debug and any Lua error text.
