Boss Abilities and Add-Ons

I was watching a video on people beating Zekvir and I saw the game just showing them what spells the boss was going to do next from an add-on. I have never used add-ons and it seems like it should just be in the game. Seems like cheating if it’s not part of the game.

I know we all need access to those add-ons its unfair we don’t have knowledge of those add-ons.

They do a lot of exploiting with that EVUI add-on I think it’s called.

It’s in the game to a degree. Most bosses do somekind of /yell before doing a spell or right as its cast.

There are some bosses that have giant yellow text in the screen built in. There should be better indicators than that though for what is going to happen.

Some of the mechanics are just super hard to see the area of. They are getting better with it though.

That is in no way close to being able to tell when a spell will go off over 5 seconds before the boss even starts.

I don’t know Blackbride, I doubt the “Top Players” will give us the ingredients to the sauce.

I know which streamer you’re talking about too. He does +19 dungeons for 12 hours straight and on one questions him lol.

Good news: his abilities are scripted so you don’t even need an addon to tell you

Just stop posting, you constantly post nonsense with 0 clue what you’re talking about.

Blackbride, I found the add-on I had to google it.
It’s called BigWigs Bossmods.

Here is the description:
BigWigs is a boss encounter add-on. It consists of many individual encounter scripts , or boss modules ; mini add-ons that are designed to trigger alert messages, timer bars, sounds, and so forth, for one specific raid encounter.

“Timer bars” is what you’re describing.

I know how to do it, I just wont. I will never bother with downloading more trash.

If you can’t beat them join them. lol Don’t you want to be the top 1%?

No it’s not. When the fight is a few minutes in I have no idea what order a bosses skills will go off when the timers are not always in a specific order. But if I know what skills are next, it would be easy to plan. Like Tetris without seeing the next piece.

Don’t let these people gaslight you. They know they’re cheating and that’s why they get so defensive when you start asking questions.

You have no idea how resourcing works in a tech company, do you?

Everything happens on a timer

You actually don’t need an addon when the boss literally just does the same thing over and over again

but he doesnt,
it would be nice if it was always, claw smash, summon thing, heal, fear, poison
rinse repeat, but the order gets shuffled

But he does

I’ve done it without addons, just pay attention

i still dont think anyone has read the topic, it isnt about the boss, its about why are addons needed for something the game should just have available
