Description
Ready Reaper keeps an eye on the cooldowns you actually care about. It scans your current class and specialization, equipped on-use trinkets, and supported combat consumables. When something you used becomes ready again, the addon shows one clear warning and plays the native WoW Alarm Bell.
Features
- Automatically finds relevant cooldown abilities for your current class and specialization.
- Detects real on-use trinkets in equipment slots 13 and 14.
- Tracks supported potions while excluding food and unrelated bag items.
- Arms alerts only after the matching spell or item was actually used.
- Large movable warning with a persistent position lock.
- Test button for checking the warning position and sound without waiting for a cooldown.
- Draggable skull minimap button and AddOn Compartment support.
- Event-driven scanning with an adaptive one-shot cooldown timer instead of a permanent per-frame scanner.
- Retail 12.1 secret-value guards for protected API values.
Setup
Open the Ready Reaper window with /readyreaper or /rr. Select the entries you want to track. Clear LOCK WARNING POSITION or press MOVE WARNING to place the alert, then lock it again when you are finished.
Useful commands
- /rr test - preview the alert and sound
- /rr lock - lock the warning position
- /rr unlock - unlock the warning position
- /rr reset - restore the default position
- /rr minimap - show or hide the minimap button
Ready Reaper never casts abilities or uses items. It only reads cooldown and inventory information exposed by the World of Warcraft addon API. No character data, combat logs, or external services are used.
