Description

Resto4Life - World of Warcraft Healer & Unit Frames Addon

Resto4Life is a modern, lightweight, and highly customizable healer, party, and raid frame addon. Built specifically for WoW Forever (Interface 16001 / Build 1.60.1) and compatible with Retail.

Designed from the ground up for healers who want crystal-clear visibility, zero frame lag, and powerful healing utilities without the bloat of oversized suites.


🌟 Key Features

⚡ Compact Click-to-Cast Buff Bar

  • Class Buff Monitoring: Continuously monitors essential buffs across all classes (Mark of the Wild, Thorns, Power Word: Fortitude, Divine Spirit, Arcane Intellect, Blessings, Shouts, etc.).
  • Clear Visual Alerts: Highlights missing buffs with a distinct red glowing border and numerical counter for missing targets; unobtrusive black border when fully buffed.
  • Smart Priority Click-to-Cast: Left-clicking directly casts the spell onto the highest-priority target missing the buff (Main Tank > Self/Healer > Melee > Ranged/Others).
  • Custom Target Group Filtering: Filter recipients per spell (All, Tank Only, Self Only, Mana Classes, Melee, or Off) in the dedicated [Buff Bar] settings tab.
  • Automatic Talent & Spellbook Detection: Only displays spells and talents your character has actually learned.

🛡️ Modular Raid & Group Frames

  • Separate Modular Containers: Independent, movable, and scalable containers for Main Tanks, Own Group, Rest of Raid, and Pets.
  • Smart Deduplication: Players are never displayed twice (Main Tanks and your own group members are automatically filtered out of the Rest of Raid grid).
  • Grid Fallback Mode: Seamlessly falls back into a unified compact raid grid if specialized containers are disabled.
  • Built-in Simulation Engine: Test and configure 5-player, 10-player, 25-player, and 40-player raid layouts anytime via the settings menu (/r4l).

🌿 Dual HoT Tracking with Smart Priority

  • Separated HoT Positioning:
    • Your Own HoTs are displayed in the top-right corner (up to 4 icons) with remaining time and stack counts.
    • Other Healers' HoTs are displayed in the top-left corner (up to 3 icons) with a matching sleek 1px black border.
  • Smart Duration Sorting: HoTs with the shortest remaining duration are prioritized first. As HoTs expire, longer-duration HoTs immediately slide in.

🎯 Native Role Badges

  • Official Blizzard role icons (Shield for Tanks, Cross for Healers, Swords for Damage Dealers) horizontally aligned on the same baseline as the character name to avoid any overlap.

💖 Health Bars & Deficit Display

  • Standard Mode: Health bar drains down as damage is taken.
  • Reverse / Deficit Mode (VuhDo-Style): Health bar fills with red as health is lost, giving immediate visual feedback on missing HP.
  • Coloring Modes: Dynamic Class Colors or a Smooth Gradient (Green → Yellow → Red based on current HP percentage).
  • Toggleable Name Tags: Show or hide character names with custom font outlines.

⚡ Resource Bars & Auto Role Sorting

  • Power Bars: Tracks Mana, Rage, Energy, Runic Power, and Fury right beneath the health bar.
  • Automated Role Ordering: Automatically sorts party members by role: Tank → Melee DPS → Ranged DPS → Healer.

💀 Smart Battle Rez & Resurrection

  • Clicking a fallen ally while in combat automatically casts your class's Battle Resurrection (e.g., Rebirth).
  • Out of combat, it automatically casts your standard resurrection spell.

🔮 Dispel & Aggro Alerts

  • Dispel Highlight Borders: Frame borders light up in high-visibility colors according to dispellable debuff types (Purple for Curse, Green for Poison, Brown for Disease, Blue for Magic).
  • Aggro Warning: Vibrant red border when a party member pulls aggro (dispellable debuffs always take visual priority).

🖱️ Click-Casting & Hover-Casting

  • Comprehensive binding options for:
    • Left Click, Right Click, Middle Click (Mouse 3), Mouse 4, Mouse 5
    • Mouse Wheel Up and Mouse Wheel Down
    • Hover Keys 1 through 6
  • Full support for CTRL and ALT modifier combinations for every button.

💾 Profile Management

  • Character-specific profiles saved independently (Resto4LifeCharDB).
  • Easy Import & Export string functionality to share setups across alts or with friends.
