RaidBuffGrid — Priest Buffing Made Easy (Classic Era)

Lightweight priest buff assistant for WoW Classic Era. RaidBuffGrid shows a compact, class‑colored party/raid grid and lets you click‑cast Power Word: Fortitude and Divine Spirit (with optional Shadow Protection) at speed. It highlights who is missing which buff, tracks remaining time, dims out‑of‑range units, and includes smart tooltips and a minimap button for fast control.

Key Features

Class‑colored grid with raid layout (up to 8 subgroup columns × 5 rows; party collapses to a single column).
Click‑casting on unit buttons:
- Left: Fortitude (single), Alt+Left: Prayer of Fortitude (group)
- Right: Divine Spirit (single), Alt+Right: Prayer of Spirit (group)
- Middle: Shadow Protection (single), Alt+Middle: Prayer of Shadow Protection (group)
- Optional Shift+Left: target only (no cast) for manual control.
Visual clarity: out‑of‑range dimming + pass icon, dead skull and offline overlays, compact color‑coded minute timer for the shortest remaining priest buff.
Smart tooltips that update every second with actionable hints (needed spells, remaining time, zone/range status).
Minimap button: Left toggles the grid, Shift+Left posts a missing‑buffs report, Right opens options, Middle toggles Shadow Protection support, Alt‑drag moves the icon.
Efficient refresh: updates only while visible units exist; adjustable refresh rate.
Reagent‑aware group buffs; clear status in tooltips.
Localization: English (enUS) and German (deDE).
