New spell ranks being put on bars automatically?

WoW Classic WoW Classic General Discussion

I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this. Whenever I train for new ranks of skills, the ones on my action bars update to the highest rank automatically. I thought you had to manually put the new ranks onto the bars yourself? I asked my brother who also plays and he said he has to do it manually, but my new ranks are being put their automatically. Is this a bug?

Bartender 4 maybe or if you have evlui classic?

I’ve had to do it manually so far. Id look through your addons and see if that’s a feature of one of them, that’s the only thing I can think of

Nope.

But I have noticed that I don’t need to manually update my macros with the new spell ranks.

If it is a pure upgrade it is automatically added–e.g. sinister strike increases in damage, but energy use remains the same so it is always max level. You have no option or need to use lower ranks.

Spells with mana cost generally require you to put new ranks on the bar to allow for downranking.

Warriors, rogues, and bear/cat abilities, because of the nature of rage and energy, do not maintain lower ranks in your spell book.

When you level a warrior and you train a new heroic strike, it upgrades instead of adding a new spell to your book, thus your toolbar will auto-update as well.

Mana classes still have to remember to replace their new spells.

Are they all updating or only some? If the only thing that changes about a spell is the damage or healing it does then it’ll just replace the previous rank.

I.e. regrowth costs different amounts of mana in addition to healing for more.

Maul costs the same amount of rage and just does more damage with a different rank.

So Regrowth will have multiple ranks in your spellbook and you’ll have to place it manually. Maul will just update to the highest version and you’ll only have one rank in your spellbook.

Thanks, this was a brilliant answer - I couldn’t work out why my Warrior was different to my Lock and Priest, cheers
