Unbelievable! Discover How This Addon Will Transform Your Gameplay
In this video we're going to be covering an addon that will help with your rotation. It's going to show you exactly what abilitys to press and when to press them.
Installing the addon(s):
1. Go to Curseforge and download the following addons
2. Download HeroRotation
3. Download HeroDBC
4. Download HeroLib
5. Head over to the github website and see if your spec is listed:
github.com/herotc/hero-rotation
Specs listed in green are good to go. If a spec is in red or orange this addon won't work! - เกม
Before anyone asks no using this addon won't do your rotation for you. This is not a bot. You have to do everything yourself :)
Those addons are good when you learn a new class or spec. Otherwise you Just become a button presser... you dont have to do anything except pressing the right key...
@@JwHighlights That's one way of looking at it sure.
@@JwHighlights I agree with you, I'm a resto shammy main and sometimes when I have to play enhancement I use a similar addon because I cant be bothered to learn to play dps.
@@JwHighlights agree 100% I have all 13 classes but most 1 spec… so when I do something really new I make myself a little self priority macro list
Rotation addons should be banned, bullshit for noobs. Like why would you even play the game? If addon tells you what to press LOOL. Imagine how dumb person must be to not handle WoW's rotations xD ALSO CHERRY ON TOP - rotation helper for FURY WARRIOR hahahah
Thanks for the spotlight on the addon! A couple points I'd like to make:
- On the Supported Rotations page, WIP typically means that the addon has been updated, but isn't a spec that any of the active devs play often, so it may have quirks we can't/haven't seen/verified. KO is completely unsupported currently (only Fire Mage and Brewmaster Monk, aside from healers, right now).
- Healers are not supported, as stated, because of their reactive nature. In Shadowlands, they had minimal dps-only support, but I haven't had the time to add that support in Dragonflight.
- Tanks are actually supported fairly well. We try to first stick to the Simulationcraft APL, then manually add in defensives handling.
- There are currently a few specs that are not up to date for 10.1 and still using their 10.0.7 rotations. These are being updated as quickly as I can get to them. Unfortunately, it takes quite a while to update a spec.
- We are always open to suggestions. Anyone can feel free to join our Discord (link on the github page). I'm available quite often to speak with about bugs/ideas/suggestions.
- Bugs can be submitted via our github issues page or via Discord. Contacting me in our Discord channel will often result in the quickest response/turnaround, as I can ask immediately ask you for any necessary information.
Thanks again for the spotlight! We really appreciate it.
Are you making one for classic era?
@@griffinbest4947 We don't have plans to support Classic.
@@griffinbest4947 why would you need one for classic? pretty much all classes have 1-2 button rotations
Thanks for the video. I am a solo player and have 12 different alts mainly for old content. I just started to do LFR on them this patch so this is really helping. Thanks for the great content.
Always happy to help out!
I'm new to WoW.
Just got this addon today from ur video. I really, really like it!
Thank You!
I prefer & suggest Hekili, you can also make it more transparent & show like the incoming 5-6 key to press, so get more used to know whats goin on , when to hold CD. it is a very strong rotation helper and lots of high rio players still use it as it can help a lot to focus on the actual gameplay (kicks,cc,defensive,position etc)
i also recommend hekili, i used hero rotation before but hekili developerer work faster and always keep hekili updated
For playing as a Mythic Raider and M+ Push (+22), I definitly recommend Hekili over HeroRatation
@@BidiTV03what other addonS you suggest
@@BidiTV03 i also do same content but the addons mostly work for melee and some range.
I have used Hekill and it seems ok for beginners or specs you are learning however I heard your dps will suffer because it is a generalization not best case rotation.
Tyvm for posting this. Gonna go try it out now.
I think my least popular addon that I think is awesome is Mount Journal Enhanced. It just gives you a lot more search options, also cleans up the UI a little. For an older addon Announce Rare I think everyone should have, it isn't that useful in newer content, but being able to auto link the rares name, location, % of health left, and a map pin is pretty slick.
Oh yeah I used to use that
Hekili does this also - allows you two see the next to abilities to use.
I use hekili. I play a lot of alts, can't help myself but I am terrible at remembering and learning rotations for all the classes and specs. I like to play whatever spec whenever the mood strikes me. I highly recommend using Hekili to anyone who plays numerous alts or if someone just want some help to get a hang of the rotation before abandoning the addon later.
You can set it to show more abilities coming up as well.
Doesn't work with every class, i know it works great with ret paladins.
Work as guide but hekili are not for end game just for really start
Every addons that tells u how to do rotation is absolute handicap on anything thats harder than +20keys or heroic raid
Just coming back to wow after 10 year break, this might be just what I need to get going again.
Love this addon, thanks for sharing!!
You are so welcome!
This is exactly what I was looking for thank you so much I'm new to fury warrior this will help with memorizing rotations
I may have to try this. I was using MaxDPS until it never got updated, to now using Hekili with Spellflash. This may be a viable option. Although, it reminds me of MaxDPS because you have to have each class/spec in its own folder which will eat up resources.
ConRO, shows what you need to cast next and not just the actual cast, supports defensive CDs, you can choose ST / AoE / Auto, and feels way better on screen
Sounds exactly like Hekili.
I have been playing from almost day 1 and took a break of 3yr and now I"m back and this video was a life saver for the game for me. I was about to stop playing I had forgot so much. Thanks you for making it!
sadly the game isn't beginner friendly either :
Glad it helped
Just a short idea to reduce the overwhelming information on the screen: remove the damage numbers (you can still use any form of scrolling combat text at the sides), reduce nameplate opacity to 65% unless it’s your current target.
Remove skada/recount for damage done overall and just get shortcut in the addon for checking after a dungeon.
I learned about the damage numbers and nameplates from playing Diablo 3, there was just to much stuff I actually didn’t care about and which were detrimental to my performance.
Thanks for the add on tip!
Been slowly focusing on DPSing more, and this add on as you said really helped me get a ideal of how it works cause some videos and guides do so poorly to explain how a spec plays!
addon seems to prioritize aoe even if its only two targets, is there a way to change this?
Also, can you remove defensive cooldowns from always showing up?
Hekili addon ftw. Great when swapping between several alts and specs to get used to and learn their rotation for both ST and AOE
also, as fury, why is mine not showing me to use whirlwind in AoE like yours does? i have meatcleaver talent active so i'm not sure why
Hey! You seem to have changed your enemy name plates from the way they looked in the ElvUI video a few months ago. I really like the way they look now! Is it still just ElvUI or could it be Plater or something similar?
It's a plater profile I downloaded.
You can also use ConRO, helps you even more, it circles around everything you need to press, you can choose between single and aoe targets
Hekili does that too... just enable spell flash
what addon is that boss ability tracker on the top right of your ui? 5:38
Been looking for this b85ch, thank you so much👍
😛
i use hekili because and i have it set to show my next 4 recommended abilities. it helps me plan ahead and time my cooldowns better
That's a good one too.
definetly the one to go! U can setup your own apl. u can tell the addon which spells to avoid and which to show, even if these should be on the main frame or shown sepperately, interrupt and so on. if you dig deep in the settings u can make yourself a very good "helper" which will tell you when and where to act like you should :D
you should set it up so it shows a single target and multitarget spell
I use Hekili as well but I have it set to show my current and next but press instead of the next two, three or four. Keeps me on my toes
This absolutely changed the way I play and enjoy the game, thank you!
You're very welcome!
I use HeroRotation when switching to a toon I haven’t played before .. it usually helps show me the rotation to use laid out on wowhead in a little on screen box
Thanks for the vid, this will help me get a better opener on most classes! also small question, what addon do u use for the cooldown timers as shown on the right at 2:50 ?
i would say its a WA. but i could be wrong
Looks like its a WA called Raid Ability Timeline
I downloaded all the three addons you mentioned and tweaked it in the option for my warrior alt and Dracthyr dps spec still not working at all.
Never heard of this before and I think I’m going to try it tomorrow
@StillSolo what addon is that? Shows in M+ when fighting boss, icon shows boss ability 5 seconds befor it casts charge ect ? :)
Raid ability timeline
Can you share the addon you're using for player and target frames?
Hey i got two questions @stillsolo
1. Is there a way to get you Ui setup it looks clean af
2. is it customizable or are there any other addons for the rota that are customizable for your own Rota ?
ty in advance
Look though my vids I got a ui video that shows how to set it all up
Hekili does the same thing and can be strung out to four executions so you know what's coming up. Also Hekili calculates on the fly so if your situation changes it'll give you the best alternative action based on that and then get you back to your normal rotation. The annoying thing about Hekili is it factors in your trinkets, pets, cool downs and you can turn only one of them off. So you are stuck with the rest and sometimes what you need to disable is not in the list, that's why I string out my future actions into four so I can skip the annoying action and go directly to the next one. I tend to save cooldowns until I really need them. In the interest of max DPS Hekili will tell you to bust a cool down whether you need it or not.
Yeah Ive been checking out Hekili. I didntk now about it before. It seems really good.
I just discovered this as I'm trying to get all the Mage Tower sets. That means playing classes and specs I've never played before with unique talent combinations so I can't just look up a rotation guide, because Mage Tower talents are bespoke for just that boss.
But in future, I'm going to use it when I'm learning a new alt.
Have fun!
yo, what is the addon you have that shows boss mechanics in a scrolling bar like that?? 3:30
Raid ability timeline weakaura.
I think it all depends on if WA, Hekili, or this uses the proper rotation. Some I believe it just tells you "this is best" but not "You need to be pushing this one" for best dps. I think you should focus more on the Mechanics aid if it does that, and not DBM.
I have been looking for this for wow classic and cant find ANYTHING. Is there anything like this for wotlk classic?
Dont work on DH with Essence Break. Or i do sth wrong? can someone explain?
This add on is great for new players/low keys or starting a class that you don't know or aren't used to. But if your needing this add on as you try to start pushing 20+, then you definitely need to actually learn your rotation and all your abilities/talents rather than staring at this bar. Personally never used one until this season because i do enjoy using it on my Enhance shaman in raid trying out different talent builds, as i don't have much experience with Enhance. Mechanics, kicks, stuns, defensive and group utility usage are the other main factors that determine 'skill level' and how high you can push, So i would definitely recommend this add on starting out a new class or in Raid
I found this on my journey of finding a useful rotational add-on because I've got so many alts and haven't even decided on what to main, so I'm switching all the time. For my Affliction Warlock, I've found that most of the add-ons don't really work. Despite usign mostly the same SimCraft database, they're suggesting wildly different rotations to me and all of them seem kind of weird and broken, both intuitively and when compared to written guides. For example, most of them tell me to recast my DoTs even when the mob is dying in a second, so Unstable Affliction wouldn't even be able to go through at all, anymore, not even talking about having time to tick. It also ignores the health threshold that ups my Soul Drain damage massively while also allowing me to regenerate needed Soul Shards.
The one I've found to be the best for my Affli is "Conflict Rotation Optimizer (ConRO)". It mostly works and works well enough to let me develop a general understanding of the basic rotation.
Now Hero Rotation I did test as well but for my Affli, it didn't work at all. From what I've researched, the "team" behind the add-on consists of one guy doing the Rogue implementation - he's said to be the guy who creates the meta rotations that all the guides use as well. so it''s pretty good (can confirm ) - and one guy doing everything else, which is why everything else can be kind of bad. No idea how recent this information is, but at least the add-on does get updated. Kind of. Just today, there's bin a merge of new Github commits. That being said, I didn't look into how active the actual makers are.
Honestly, at least as a beginner, finding a good rotation add-on is not easy, especially if you can't tell if one is good or not without trying it out for some time. Hekili, for example, the one you find mentioned everywhere, worked just as badly for my Affliction Warlock as Hero Rotation. MaxDPS doesn't work at all anymore and that's about it for availability.
What is the music you have in the background?
Using Hekili for years, that is practically the same thing. I have it config'ed so i see 3 spells ahead, so you know what's coming next.
Good tutorial. 👍
I use Hekili so when mechanics or emergency taking over a mechanic duty, it can help you find you flow again. I turned off CDs and potion usage so I decide when. There is also the times on heavy rng classes when whack a mole becomes an issue that these helpers cant keep up. Again they will help you learn but take it and run with it on your own.
what is the / command for the addon I can't seem to find it but works wonderfully
@stillsolo What's the difference between this addon and Hekili? I just started using Hekili and it seemingly does the exact same thing and it definitely works... got me 99 parses on 4 of the fights in Aberrus (normal mode, but still).... Ret paladin btw.
How have u done that with DBM, the one bar?
I used to use hekili, but I’ll be honest I’ve improved significantly since removing it and fully learning my rotation and understanding my class. It’s helped significantly. I’d recommend eventually turning the rotation helpers off.
why? I have never understood, why people ALWAYS say "Oh it helped me but I turned it off" Like that makes you better than someone who has it on? Please fill me in cause I have been using hekili, tell me when and clcret for years, and have ALWAYS bee top to high dps on whatever class I play because it gives me understanding...AND frees up having to CONTSTANLY LOOK AT CD timers, my situation awareness is higher than ever because muscle memory takes over for what buttons to hit instead of constantly looking at cooldowns...I have HEARD peoples keys boards on mics and it is exhausting to hear....I have no such problems and my wrists are fine. So explain to me WHY is it a FLEX to "TURN IT OFF" or abandon it?
@@NeoFireFly bro what??? It’s not a flex pal… it’s how it worked for me. Hekili was recommending bullshit that wasn’t needed in my rotation and once I sat down and drilled my opener over and over and learned how my procs worked and what not my gameplay improved drastically. I’m aware that you can remove the spells you don’t need and make custom rotations, but instead I turned it off, got on the rogue discords and just learned my character. How is that a flex? What seems like a flex to me is talking about how you constantly top the DPS charts… I could give a shit whether you use it or don’t use it. Whatever floats your boat. I use weak auras to track my cooldowns. Works for me. Hekili was great for me in the beginning but I didn’t really take my own gameplay to the next level until I started understand not just what to use but WHEN to use it. Hekili would want me to blow my load on a small trash mob and be on CD for the boss if I just followed blindly. Do you man. I’m just saying I improved when I stopped using it. It’s not a flex, it’s a fact. Hekili off = improved performance, for me personally. If using it improves your performance then obviously keep it on. There’s tons of guys that will shit on hekili, but I used to like it a lot and it helped me so much in the beginning when I didn’t know shit. Now I know and it’s not needed for me to run my proper rotation.
@@NeoFireFly also if you can run +15 to +20 mythics with hekili then more power to you. No chance in hell I could. It’s hard enough to keep up with mechanics, affixes, interrupts, and doing your rotation efficiently. No shot I could give up my weak auras and track CD’s using hekili with its limited upcoming ability view. So much easier for me to pay attention to the dungeon and mechanics at hand and just let muscle memory take over.
@@jakehmckernan1 I infact can and DO +20's with Weakauras and everything else, I am just ALWSY curious because your original comment ALWAYS ALWASY comes up on whatever video or forums post to any addon like this..."Oh I used to use but I improved or got the rotation" so I don't use it anymore...like it makes you better than said person who does...THATS what it feels like when it said So I am asking finally someone who said it WHY? and does that feel like a flex? ALSO to add you need common sense as well everything you said makes no sense because even thought he ADDON tells you it is STILL up to you to use it at the proper time IE cooldown and what not, and as it recommending things you don't use...you DO realize Hekili is not some random recommendation but is built based up perfect simulations frim simcraft and the APL that gets updated when it is needed. I sit top DPS in most things I do my time is spent more on knowing the fights and mechs than worrying about my rotation which allows for better DPS...while my guildmates and other have to juggle watching CD's Buffs and procs Mine is ALL FACTORED in so I ma not sure how someone using one of these tyes of addons feels lesser to some people, I have in the past been dogged on for using such an addon..
@@NeoFireFly Its all BS, rotation helpers are used by world first raiders, because you can't think faster than a computer.
The "GSE" addon works in a similar way.
The difference is that GSE creates a Button (similar to a macro) and every time you press it, the rotation advances.
GSE = Rotation in a single key.
Spam the key = Free Rotation :)
I use GSE in PvP. And i dominate. I know its sad but oh well. Lol
I've gotten a couple top ten mythic raid parses using hekili back in the day. I probably followed it's recommendations 95% of the time. Some classes work better than others, obviously.
MaxDPS used to be my favorite, but the author hasn't updated modules for it in years, only the core addon, so I went with Hekili, then customized it to be like MaxDPS, so now it lights up the spells to use.
I know this comment is hella old, but if you wouldn't mind, could you tell me how you customized it to be/look like MaxDPS?
Nice video. Does anyone know what he uses for the party frames and his own hp bar etc? thanks alot!
I think its a great addon for new players but it dosent max out your dps. For exanple if you are in a dungeon it will tell you to use your big cds in every pack but somtimes you want to holdback on them to use them on a bigger/scary pull or it tells you to use cds when you finish a mob with 20% health instead of keeping it for the next pull.
Then thats when you hold back on your CDs. You dont have to use it. And besides, the addon Hekili...you can disable big CDs and spells and tell them when to pop like only boss fights, etc. It helps me remember when use buttons. Lol. I forget alot and its nerve wrecking.
I use Enhance Shaman and i always forget to use feral spirit. This addon helps alot.
I used to be very survivable but since we now have so many spells in a rotation I find myself staring at the spell icons and missing mechanics. I really don't like an addon telling me what to do but I might try this at least on my alts.
So that is like MaxDps addon but with a better visualization cue. Nice!
Yeah
What UI addon is the one you are using in the video?
Elvui
i got to check this out, i just returned to WoW last time i played was lith king expac. Haven't joined any raids or end game content because i dont have the endless time to play like i used to and was able to figure all this out.
How do you get damage text numbers like that?
What about the talents I have to choose to this addon to work better? Is there a section for talents for each spec? Cant find it
No this does not include talents. You need to pick those yourself.
I use this addon on tank warrior, it makes me generate rage soo fast. And as disc priest for dps healing, its gets helps me get high dps and healing without getting panic. You just need to compose your rotation manually.
I click for all my abilities and spells I also don't use macros I just don't like that one button rotation that everybody likes to use even though I know it make it more easier for me to use the one button rotation but I've been clicking since the beginning I have never used macros I've tried a couple of times but just never worked out so I stick with clicking my spells and abilities I also use the arrow keys to move or w s a d to move but either works for me
I activate 3 CDs and mostly press 2 buttons on my new rogue (for boss dps) and do surprisingly well.
wholly + grail when leveling alts shows all quest start locations on the world map its a godsend for getting the loremaster title aswell
This UI is so clean I almost cried ( In a good way)
Hey can we get a full list of add ons you have?
Is it similar to good old Hekili?
Isn't this just Hekili? I like Hekili more, it shows you the next 3 moves you need to use in your rotation. I keep it on for my boomkin and warlock, I hate dot management.
Hekili also tells you when to use cooldowns, and works for all classes.
I remember using a similar addon way back in the day. It highlighted the skill in your action bar.
Do you remember the name?
I believe it was Spell Flash@@stillsolo
Great video! What’s the scrolling boss ability add on your using? I need it in my life
That is a weak aura called Raid Ability TImeline
ConRo is another addon that does this and they have all specs, even includes when to use interrupts and purges.
This is probably the best addon for my steam deck
dude what are those unit frames on enemies? looks crisp
Plater
Do you have this addon for classic too? (WOTLK and Vainilla)
Sadly no
Anyone get this to work with pandara remix? I cant seem to figure out how to ebable it
Check out hekili
Nice video mate, that looks like a game chance indeed. Also you probably hear that a lot but would you let us copy that plater profile of yours ?
I'm using GaleaGG TV's plater profile.
What if I told you that this sort of addon isn’t new or fresh and first started with ret paladins long ago with an addon called ‘FCFS’?
Cool story bro
I used this for a bit but then switched to Hekili which I much prefer
Should just use Hekili. Its basically the same thing but is highly customizable and has rotations for every spec. Its updated constantly and takes its info from icy veins. I play every class in the game so its a life saver not having to memorize everything and all the constant changes.
nice skills .... lol why do u fucking play then ?
About time an addon like this was created as I play multiple alts. At times when I'm away from playing a certain class/spec I lose some of my muscle memory. Not only that, class weak auras take so much visual real-estate, this way I can adjust my weak auras to only show certain spells and abilities rather than having all in the middle of my screen. Thank you for bringing this addon to light. Subscribed.
Bro Hekili is being around for ages....
@@Ithorian One, not a bro and two I've never heard of the addon which should be obvious, no?
I've used this addon for pvp and pve rotations. I know this is a more PvE based addon but in pvp it reminds me when i have a CD available.
As other commentors have already stated, these sorts of addons are tools to help you learn a spec and the flow of the rotation. How best to use that information is up to you. These addons do not have plugins for dungeons or raids so will not tell you to hold CDs for XY or Z but merely press the button to do the most damage. The assumption the addon will always make is that the mobs is going to be alive for ever and that you do not need to move for any mechanics. So you have to know know the fight or dungeon or when you do you need max dps. I use hekili as you can see a decent queue of abilities - you can also disable things like major class CDs if you want so that you can only see the core rotational abilities. This is great for classes where you have 1 major CD that just is a flat DPS increase, however classes like Sub rogue or Fire Mage or super reliant of CDs for their damage you need to have them on. Or also classes that have a lot of CDs where the order is very important - like Unholy DK.
Overall it won't do the job for you but you can use them to practise on target dummies to get used to an opener or the general flow of your rotation - after that you can / should disable them unless you're using them as a visual tracking guide for abilities coming off CD so you know roughly how many GCDs there are before you can use something again
I could not get anything to show up for my discipline priest but it worked fine for other classes.
How to make resourses on mini map looks like points like old style?
Thats just part of the new ui
@@stillsolo i know but mb exist some addon
Hekili does all of this but works for every spec and shows cooldowns
I have never donated to devs of any addon! BUT THIS IS INSANE! My dps on warlock has increased sooo much they’re definitely getting money from me
That's so awesome of you. Those guys deserve it.
I have one called Hekili. It's helped dps but overall it's kind of wack. ESPECIALLY FOR BOOMKIN. Boomkin is kind of weird in the first place going back and forth between solar and lunar.
Asia is ahead in this kind of Addon, there it is called "auto-play"
What addon shows the boss ability thats on the right up and down
Raid ability timeline weak aura
Does this add on take into consideration your talent set up , or does that even matter ?
it does
I use Hekili. Best rotation addon. And i still use it as an experience player. I dont care what people think. As long as i can use my utilities correct and at the right moment and my dps is not shit, no one is complaining.
Hekili does this and allows more than this one as cds, interrupts, defensivas, pots and potions.
It shows up to the next and third ability to use and plus it is just one add on to install opposing to the three that you need for this one.
Hekili I’m my opinion is far more complete and very user friendly
Oh forgot one thing that makes it far better, it supports all classes and specs!!!!
I used to use Conro, it has all spec working to
Add-ons such as these are very helpful for new players and also people who want to try new specialisation. However, the drawback from this type of add-ons is that it makes you reliant on it. Why learn when I can just use the add-on to tell me how to play my class.
CLRet think it only works for ret pallies tho
Brother... you dont need an add on for the fury rotaion. Its 4 buttons
I use hekili but I will check your recommended addon to see if there are any changes.
what is POOL icon means when it pops off anyone knows?
Means to wait
im looking for these addons but i dont see herodbc anyone can help?
its called "HeroDBC"
Are there any addons like this for PvP noobs?
Thanks for the Video. I think Decursive is a not well known Addon thats realy helpful, because it tells you if you can take a curse from a Partymember and you can just click the little square that stands for the cursed Teammate and the remedy will be automaticly aplied. So tha even Mages can regularly dispell.^^
What add-on is your main and enemy frame?
would love to know also
He looks like he uses ElvUi. He has Portraits enabled on the party, player and target frames.
@@FLCLpsycho i think he means unit frames, not target
