HealBotBlue
Posted: Tue Jun 30, 2026 1:15 pm
Original HealBot, while being a staple healing addon in Wrath and later expansions, was in its infancy during Vanilla WoW. It was a memory and CPU hog that ate up resources, featured a clunky UI, and offered limited functions.
In order to fix that I re-wrote huge chunk of original code, leaving only some of it intact.
I managed to throttle down CPU and memory usage significantly, placing it on par with modern addons. While it's still in development as I'm adding more and more functionalities I've decided to start sharing stable releases.
Final goal is a holistic healer centred raid frame that allows all necessary interactions within raid. (All in one lightweight add-on that doesn't require complicated configuration process or trying to mix and match together Grid, Clique, Luna frames and Decursive)
Original HealBot Continued:
• Heal on mouse click + key modifiers
• Some chat interactions
• Decursing \ Dispelling
• Skin configuration (size, shape, colour, texture)
Right now HealBotBlue changes and additions include:
• Togglable mana bars for healers in raid.
• Rudimentary HoT and Debuff tracking with icons.
• Buff tracking with toggle option for personal tracking
• Separate chat tab functionality for cast announcements.
• Hovercasting over the frames
• Modernizied UI options including, togglable class colours instead of uniform green bars, thinner borders and more.
• More toggle options for hiding/showing the frames depending on scenario
• Hiding party frames for total replacement
In future it will support:
• Custom Turtle/Octo talent modifiers on heal calculations.
• Proper shaman weapon enhancement tracking
• Extended frame skin configuration options
Please report any bugs in the thread or on github if you encounter any.
