RaidLead
A focused raid-management toolkit for TBC Classic, built for raid leaders who want a fast in-game cockpit for consumable checks, raid assignments, boss-specific tactics, polls, and loot tracking; without juggling external spreadsheets mid-pull.
Features
Buff scanner
- One-click scan of your group/raid for world buffs, consumables, and raid auras
- Class-by-class breakdown of who's missing what
- Announce to
/raid in one click: consumables only, raid buffs only, or full report
Assign tab — heals, cooldowns, CC & roster
A single hub for raid assignments, switchable via sub-tabs:
- Healer assignments: heal-to-tank grid with cross-heal, Earth Shield, hunter Misdirect, and an Auto-Assign helper
- Raid cooldowns: assign caster (and target where relevant) for major cooldowns
- Crowd control: per-raid-icon CC assignments, with "Scan Marks" to auto-fill marked mob names
- Roster: every raid member grouped by declared role, with addon-version and role at a glance
- Saved per profile and synced to other RaidLead users in the raid automatically
Boss templates — per-encounter UI
Pre-built assignment templates with custom widgets for every TBC raid boss that has non-trivial mechanics:
- Karazhan: Netherspite portal rotation
- Gruul's Lair: Maulgar council role split, with one-click Auto-Mark of the council
- Magtheridon's Lair: cube clicker assignments, with one-click Auto-Mark of the Hellfire Channelers
- Serpentshrine Cavern: Karathress targeting, Vashj cores & elements
- Tempest Keep: Al'ar phase swaps, Solarian arcane targets, Kael'thas full-fight checklist
Each template loads role-aware UI for the boss; no more dictating assignments into raid chat one line at a time. Auto-Mark scans enemy nameplates and group targets to apply raid icons to the right mobs in a single click.
Quick Polls
- Fire a question at the raid — every RaidLead user gets a popup to vote
- Built-in presets (Continue/Wipe/Break, Ready to pull, …) plus your own custom questions, each set to single-select (instant vote) or multi-select (pick several)
- Live tally for the initiator; Announce the full breakdown (each option's count + percentage) to raid/party chat
- Poll history: past results are kept privately on your client (never broadcast); review them anytime and re-announce to chat, or clear the list
Loot & attendance history
- Logs every drop with timestamp, recipient, instance, boss
- Per-run, per-player, and attendance views (who showed up, and how often)
- Filterable by player or instance; persists across
/reload and logout
Role check
- Broadcast a role-check request to the raid
- Members get a one-click Tank / Heal / Melee / Ranged popup
- Aggregated result back in your panel
Leader-aware & read-only by default
- Only the raid leader and assistants can modify assignments, marks, and polls
- Everyone else sees a clear "View only" indicator and read-only controls — so tanks/healers can run the addon to see live assignments locally without accidentally changing anything
- Personal settings (your own declared role, display options) stay editable for everyone
Peer-version detection
- Lightweight addon-message handshake announces RaidLead's presence to other users
- Warns you if a newer version is running in your raid
Slash commands
/raidlead, /rl — Toggle the main panel
/rl scan — Re-scan group buffs
/rl announce [buffs|raid] — Print buff report to /raid

Installation
- Install via the CurseForge app, or extract this zip into
World of Warcraft<your-client>\Interface\AddOns\RaidLead
/reload (or restart the client)
- Type
/rl to open the panel
The raid leader benefits most, but tanks and healers can install too so they see live assignments locally.
Compatibility
- TBC Classic (Interface 20505) — primary target
- No required dependencies

Notes
- All data lives in
RaidLeadDB (per-account SavedVariables), no cloud, no external service.
- Sync between members uses WoW's addon-message channel; only other RaidLead users see the traffic, nothing leaks into player chat.
