Description
A fully featured and configurable DPS maximiser. Displays a sequence of icons, representing the order in which you should use your abilities so that maximum DPS may be achieved.
By itself, We Don't Wipe does nothing. You must separately download the modules.
Works great in Legion Patch 7.1!

How to Instal
Download the latest We Don't Wipe. Instal like any other AddOn. Download one or more modules. Instal like any other AddOn.
How to Configure
When first launched, and providing you are not in combat, you will see a set of overlapping tiles at one side of your screen. This is the template to create your queue pattern. Slide these tiles around. The tiles tend to snap together. It is very intuitive. When you are done, enter the following in chat to toggle off the template display: /wdw ooc
To see a full list of configuration commands, enter "/wdw" in chat. Appending a " ?" to the end of any command will bring up more helpful information about the command.
My Hand Held Setup FAQ page might also be of help.
Priority Queues (aka Rotations)
Each module is built upon popular and authoritative sequences sourced form places such as Icy Veins. I then add in support for any other talents / abilities which significantly affect single target DPS.
Abilities with longer cool downs, say about 120s, will usually have a parameter to enable/disable from the rotation. To see a module's list of parameters enter "/wdw listp" in chat. To adjust enter "/wdw setr parm1=xxx,parm2=zzz,parm3=...".
If You Like We Don't Wipe
Nobody can resist an adorable Raptor Hatchling pet or the magnificent Netherwing Drake and Long-Forgotten Hippogryph mounts. You'll of course need Dark Soil for The Tillers friendships and a Loose Pebble for your Dog! While fishing you'll wonder if This Scampi Happening? Oh, but it is! Why not Let Minnow about your fishing poles and you surely Cod Do Batter with your fishing achievements. While adventuring, map your way with X and Y coordinates and always go the Hard Yards measuring distance. Have some fun with Yarrr for pirate Tooltips or turn geek with Fibonacci. See all the hidden game asset IDs with Tip or Enumerate your frames. Achievement critters and NPCs receive some Rare Love and keep track of Sunrise & Sunset.
Cookies, Beer & Donations
It is all about the cookies & beer although, and don't let Gallywix know about this, a "thank you" in the comments section fuels my programming appetite and is very much appreciated. And then, you could cut straight to Donate to lend your support! because as Gallywix would say... "time is money, friend".
I am not actively updating this or the modules currently. Assuming not much changed after 7.1 it should do you well through LFR. Higher dunno.
question about button count. There is a command to alter between 1 and 10. Try /wdw in chat and look for the option.
Is there a command to control displayed button count? I would like only 4 buttons displayed. Put the rest to the side causes alot of lag in the monk module.
Just wondering when the arcane rotation will be available?
upgrade to 7.2?
Throughout the entirety of the Legion patch I have had several prospective authors privately (e.g. via PM) seek to write their own modules or even offer to take over the AddOn suite in its entirety. Absolutely nothing has come of this.
My feelings at the moment, are that I am lacking energy for this AddOn suite but I remain totally committed to my other (decidedly "casual") AddOns.
So publicly, rather than privately as before, I am seeking offers from prospective authors.
All I ask is that this AddOn remains true to core: not just a glorified list of ordered cool downs such as the EnhaPrio AddOn. But modules with deep decision making logic, modules which work for players sub-max level, and modules which allow for a variety of talents choices.
Until something happens, over time I will submit to the chore of updating the current modules and the main WDW engine for Patch 7.2. Sigh.
(With Legion I have the sense I will never ever get on top of the "grind". Whether that's for tier gear, mounts, BiS gear, pets, professions, achievements, toys, reputations. Up to about Cata I could still strive to "collect them all". Thus my goals are impossible to attain. Thus disheartened. A completionist who can never hope to complete)
In reply to Taraezor:
I saw this addon and was definitely excited -- then I saw the last update and, more specifically, this post and it all came back to me...I am so with you and what you expressed!
I love WoW -- I still think it's the best and most complete game/entertainment available. I started in Wrath and loved it all and when Warlords ended I had 16 lev 100s and 4 toons between 55 and 70. As Legion came to a close I had 3 level 110s (one by xpac boost), one level 101, with the others unchanged. Now, it's the middle of BfA and I have one 120, one 114, a 110, that level 101 -- and those 16 others haven't moved.
Something about Warlords/Legion completely drained me. Was it Garrisons, the complex and malleable weapon/gearing systems, maybe "Pathfinder?" My new thinking: "It doesn't even matter." All those changes are made worse than worthless when another convoluted set of systems is invented in The Heart and azerite.
It seems like Blizz has adopted the idea that they can sell an empty box as long as they're always pouring something into it -- dynamic, continually shifting content. This sucks! With the game and it's future in total flux all the time there is no such thing as "on top of the grind" -- gear, mounts, pets, achieves, etc. are not "pin-down-able" at all and players can't really do anything well because they have to do everything frantically to "keep up," only to have the inevitable "downtime" every reset. I can't even keep my UI and attempts at success on track -- it all changes every day.
This thing has got to be even more exasperating for dedicated, focused, intelligent people trying to bring players more to the game and the game more to the players. I have figured out the real game -- just to do with what you have, dig on the gaming and the people, and let the rest float in and around you. I think I saw what you did at about the same time...when Panda-land came I knew there was no real hope of staying on top of it but because it was all fresh and new, I also carried that eternal hope that it really was doable.
Bit by bit I am realizing that I have three things I look forward to: 1) my 70 twink in his guild "The Burniing Crusade" because there is NO GEAR GRIND -- it's all player and game! (And besides, Alliance still owns the 70's bracket :)), 2) I still look forward to exploring all this stuff and figuring out how to kick ass on these instances and bosses, and 3) I think I am looking forward to spending a good bit of time on a Vanilla server -- there's something "twinkish" and static about that and I wanna check it out...
Sorry you got to that place Taraezor...I think I know just how you feel...if you do look back into doing this work I offer my services to you in whatever way you see as appropriate -- I am a LONG time computer guy, I totally love digging in to the essence of how things work (or don't) and finding ways to make them better, I love WoW and even play it kinda okay (lol). If you see your disheartenment going away a bit and find yourself looking all this over again -- drop me a line! (yugo2slow#1672 on the Thunderhorn/Blade's Edge US server).

How do I add an item to the Monk rotation? I have Draught of Souls and Kil'jaeden's Burning Wish and would like to have them added to remind me when to use them.
Any info on when we might expect Elemental Shaman update? Can't find a single one rotation, that would fit me, and yours looks nice, clean and perfectly visible. Thanks for any info :)
I'd love to see an option that it won't display if you're in a spec that is not supported.
Could you give an example please. It should not show a rotation for a spec which is not supported. So wondering what indeed is being shown?
the 1-10 empty squares are being shown.
My Blood DK, Prot Paladin, BM Hunter, Brewmaster Monk, etc has it visible.
Thanks. I'll get on to it.
when do you think arcane mage will be ready?
Is there a way to remove the GCD countdown and all animation that comes with it so it will just show the image and nothing else?
No but a good suggestion for a future update
Is there any way to change the size of individual tiles?
Most definitely. Hitting /wdw in chat will get you on the way
Any chance of a demo lock or Ret Pally any time soon?
gnmrsmitty posted a spammy request for Balance. Thanks mate, I'll take it on board. Had to delete your post though. It was lol worthy at the time! ;)
thank you so much your addon is great its help me so much on my fire mage
