Raid Spots

Arrow of Win!!

Inspired by Heroic Hagara, where exact positioning for your entire raid is critical to a successful kill, this addon works provides a means of setting each raider (who's running the addon) with a waypoint and an arrow pointing to that waypoint. This makes co-ordinating the raid very easy for raid leads, especially in the heat of battle.

Setup a Raid Spot

  1. Get your raid into position
  2. Use the documented slash commands or the Minimap/LDB icon to set a raidspot ( e.g /raidspot raid Lightning Spot! )
  3. All those in your raid should have received a prompt to add a new Raid Spot called "Lighning Spot!" and click Yes
  4. All the raid now has an arrow pointing them back to this spot

Raid Spot Profiles

Raid Spots can be saved and re-broadcast at another date, this should decrease the setup time for future attempts! So to do this;

  1. Get your raid into position
  2. Use the documented slash commands or the Minimap/LDB icon to set a raidspot ( e.g /raidspot raid Lightning Spot! )
  3. All those in your raid should have received a prompt to add a new Raid Spot called "Lighning Spot!" and click Yes
  4. All the raid now has an arrow pointing them back to this spot
  5. Use the documented slash commands or the Minimap/LDB icon to save the raidspot ( e.g. /raidspot saveraid Lightning Spot! )
