SQUAWK CD Tracker
Track your cooldowns. Beat the logs. Avoid the shame.
Ever gotten called out for using Diamond Flask one too many times?
Ever had your log flagged with the dreaded "Invalid due to restricted cooldowns"?
Yeah… I've been there. Let’s fix that.
SQUAWK CD Tracker is a no-frills, raid-smart cooldown tracker made specifically for WoW Classic Anniversary players who care about their Warcraft Logs — or at least pretend to.
What It Does
- Cooldown Tracking: Tracks critical limited-use cooldowns (Diamond Flask, Death Wish, Adrenaline Rush, and more) and intelligently warns you when you've exceeded appropriate usage according to WCL parsing and speedrun rules, preventing log invalidation.
- Dynamic Thresholds: Automatically adjusts cooldown thresholds based on raid-specific kill times you set, ensuring your usage aligns with optimal parsing strategies.
- Per-Character & Per-Raid Data: All cooldown history and settings are saved uniquely for each character and raid instance, persisting across relogs.
- Advanced Raid Cooldown Assignments:
- Boss-Specific Assignments: Designate which cooldowns should be used for each raid boss within Blackwing Lair, Temple of Ahn'Qiraj, and Naxxramas.
- Real-Time Visuals: Your main UI frame provides instant visual feedback, indicating whether your cooldowns are assigned for the current boss (checkmark/X indicators).
- Raid Leader Broadcasts: Raid Leaders and Assistants can effortlessly broadcast their cooldown assignments, custom limits, and target kill times to all other Squawk CD Tracker users in the raid, ensuring synchronized strategies.
- In-Game Acknowledgements: Broadcasters receive real-time summaries of who has successfully received and applied the shared assignments.
- Real-Time Raid Usage Summary: A dedicated in-game panel provides a comprehensive overview of every raid member's tracked cooldown usage, allowing raid leaders to monitor compliance and identify potential issues before a pull (Provided all raid members are running the addon).
- Seamless Data Management:
- Import/Export: Easily share your meticulously configured assignments, cooldown limits, and kill times via an export string, or import settings from other players.
- Backup & Restore: Every import automatically creates a backup, allowing you to revert to previous settings if needed.
- Essential Client Bug Fixes:
- "Pass on Loot" Auto-Fix: Automatically toggles your "Pass on Loot" setting off and then back on when logging into a raid zone, circumventing a long-standing WoW bug where the setting appears active but isn't.
- Raid Frame HP Desync Fix: Automatically unequips and re-equips a configurable gear slot item upon logging into a raid, resolving common health frame synchronization issues for improved raid awareness.
- Clean & Intuitive UI: Features a movable and customizable display frame, with a user-friendly options panel integrating seamlessly into the standard Blizzard interface.
