Bug Fixes

Options Panel

Opening the options panel is delayed after leaving combat (Mists of Pandaria).

Developer's Note: This delay is annoying but it became mandatory with Siege of Orgrimmar patch for Mists of Pandaria Classic. Not delaying caused an error when opening the options panel while in combat.

Paladin

Paladin's The Art of War now displays its Spell Alert.

Glowing Buttons

A workaround has been implemented to fix an in-game glowing buttons issue.

The issue may affect players who match both following conditions

  • playing the Siege of Orgrimmar patch for Mists of Pandaria
  • binding spells and abilities inside macros

Although the issue comes for Blizzard's game client, the addon can help. Once Blizzard fixes their stuff, these options shall be removed.

The following glowing buttons have been added temporarily

  • Death Knight
    • Howling Blast, during Rime
    • Icy Touch, during Rime
    • Frost Strike, during Killing Machine
    • Obliterate, during Killing Machine

Known Limitations

It is possible that the above fixes do not work exactly as the game client. These fixes already required a ton of work, doing better would be even worse. Again, this is a band-aid to help Blizzard, please don't shoot the medic, thank you :)
