Raid Group Manager

A World of Warcraft addon for organizing and applying raid group layouts. Design your raid composition with drag-and-drop, save layouts for reuse, and apply them to your raid with a single click.

Features

Grid-Based Layout Editor

8-group grid (40 slots) with drag-and-drop support
Swap players between slots, drag from unassigned panels, or type names manually
Right-click any slot to clear it
Grid state persists across reloads — pick up where you left off

Role/Class Templates

Place template slots like "Tank - Warrior" or generic "Healer" instead of specific player names
Templates auto-resolve to matching raid members when you click Apply
Two-pass resolution: class+role specific templates match first, then generic role-only templates
Unmatched templates remain in place for manual assignment

Layout Management

Save and load named layouts
Auto-save option to keep your active layout in sync with grid changes
Import/export layouts in multiple formats: paired columns, horizontal, vertical, or encoded strings
Preset layouts included for common mythic and heroic compositions

Smart Group Splitting

Split Odd/Even: Distribute players across odd (1/3/5/7) and even (2/4/6/8) groups
Split Halves: Pack players into two contiguous group blocks (1-2 and 3-4 for mythic)
Role-balanced: each side gets equal tanks, healers, melee, and ranged
Class-paired: duplicate classes land at matching positions on each side
Deterministic: same roster always produces the same split
Mythic-aware: automatically uses 4 groups in mythic difficulty

Unassigned Panel

Four browsing modes via tab bar:

Raid: Shows current raid members not yet placed in the grid
Guild: Shows guild members at your level or above
Role: Shows all role/class template combinations for drag-and-drop
Roster: Import your external roster from wowutils/Party Shark JSON exports

Roster Import

Import your guild roster from wowutils / Party Shark JSON exports
Extracts each member's main character with class and role information
Imported roster persists across sessions
Drag roster members directly into grid slots
