ClassicCastbars for WoW WotLK — Addons · WoW WotLK

Overview

ClassicCastbars shows what your target is casting in a cast bar you can customize, and can add cast bars to party frames and nameplates too. It also alerts you to spell school lockouts. In Classic Era the game has shown enemy cast bars on its own since patch 1.15.0, so there the addon is only needed for its extra options.

Who it's for

Players who interrupt or react to enemy casts, in PvP and in dungeons.

Main features

• Customizable cast bars for your target
• Optional cast bars on party frames and nameplates
• Alerts for spell school lockouts

Limitations

• Its author has put it in maintenance mode, so updates come less often.

Common mistakes

• Using it in Classic Era only to see enemy casts: the game's own option (Options > Interface > Show Enemy Cast Bar) does that.
