First impression for decimation of addons in Midnight from a healer's perspective

Whenever there is an ability that’s important for me to know about, let’s say, Thunderclap in Priory, I go into DBM, and make a countdown, then precast Chainheal right before it goes off so someone doesn’t 0.5 seconds later take a potshot and die.

Perhaps they should consider adding ability timelines for some non-boss enemies.

There are many examples of this like Gigazap seeing who is targeted by it instead of being forced to react after two people get chunked for half HP and be two ticks away from death.

Or the game could just tell you who has a hit incoming without getting addons involved. That would be better.

We could be pessimistic and assume Blizzard would fail to settle into their new position well by leaving you with a mechanic like that anyway, but I think that’s premature. and when it happens they usually do something.
