Hey guys. So I’ve been trying to find a good Healbot-like addon to function for WoW Classic but I’m having some difficulties. Old 1.12 healbot doesnt work and the new retail version of healbot’s setting page works but not the actual healing frames or bars.
I need a healbot-like addon that I can input in old spell ranks for clicks, addons like vuhdo dont accept old ranks for spell inputs.
I know alot of players will say you dont need these addons for healing in classic but Id really appreciate some advice if anyone is familiar with this topic or is currently using a healbot-like addon currently that is working in classic.
Thank you for your time.
Vuhdo is my go to. Works in retail and classic and is super simple.

Vuh’do does what healbot does and works for classic (i got mine through twitch)
Yeah but I cant tell it to cast specific older spell ranks which is the major problem Im having.
For Healbot Continued, to cast lower ranked spells, make a macro and use the macro instead of spell for the click:
/cast [@hbtarget] Lesser Heal (Rank 1)
Make sure auto cast is toggled on in interface options otherwise you’ll have to click avoid blue cursor on everything. I also fixed a bug in the HealBot_Panel.lua (1631) to remove a check for vehicle that was causing a nil error when showing Pet frame. It’s a pain to set up but it is working for me.

Im trying to get it to function but it doesnt want to display the bars and actual raid/party window. Did you do anything special to get it to show? Any thoughts as to why my bars arent displaying but I can still access the setting window?
You might try disabling other addons to make sure something isn’t messing with it. You can turn on/off addons now without having to log out.
Make sure you have the latest version released… I think it was update last week.

IDK why you guys don’t just use mouseover macros… Thats all i need plus a good raid frames addon, I use Grid.

This was favorite back in the days.
Most probably figured this out but if not many of the default spells binding are not available for lower char. I was pulling my hair until I replace “Flash Heal” with “Lesser Heal” and it started to work for my level 6 priest.
To cast lower rank spells in Vuhdo use brackets. For example:
lesser heal(Rank 1)

I can’t put heal in, only lesser heal, flash heal and renew. Is there a secret?
Lower rank heals DO work with VuhDo, but you need to type out the rank explicitly in the box like this:
Lesser Heal(Rank 2)
Lesser Heal(Rank1)
If you type in Lesser Heal, it will automatically pick the highest rank spell.

I’m also unable to use Heal, its not in my list of healing spells. I’ve logged and even reinstalled healbot. Everything else is working . I think I’m going to try Vuhdo today.
I never understood the healbot stuff. What’s wrong with using keybinds? Using Keybinds is way easier, Healbot is annoying and limiting.

I just figured this out this morning. You can manually add Heal. Just remove the word “Lessor”.
Thank you! This is info I was looking for.
Using healbot as well. Works fine for me. Still the same old healbot.
