RaidBuffStatus is a raid readiness addon that checks group buffs, consumables and other preparation requirements from one dashboard. It is useful when you want this information or control available inside the game without adding an unnecessarily large UI package. The goal is to make a specific WotLK 3.3.5a task quicker and easier to read while leaving the rest of the interface largely unchanged.
Main features
- raid buff and consumable status overview.
- Boss and Trash style checks in supported builds.
- reporting of missing buffs to raid or party.
- whisper tools for individual missing requirements.
- ready-check access from the panel.
How to use
Run the check after the raid is formed and again shortly before important pulls. Use reporting sparingly so the raid chat stays readable.
Installation
- Download the addon archive for your WotLK 3.3.5a client.
- Close World of Warcraft before replacing addon files.
- Extract the addon folder into World of Warcraft\Interface\AddOns.
- Start the game and make sure the addon is enabled on the character-selection screen.
- Test its basic function in a safe situation before using it in a raid, arena, Auction House session, or other important activity.
If RaidBuffStatus does not appear to work, first check for an extra nested folder inside AddOns and confirm that you downloaded a build intended for the 3.3.5a API. Old WotLK addons often have several forks, so commands and optional modules can differ slightly between packages. Keep a backup of a working addon folder before replacing it with another fork.
Compatibility and troubleshooting
WotLK 3.3.5a resources often exist in several forks. If a command, trigger or option behaves differently, confirm the exact archive hosted on the page before changing the instructions. When testing, disable unrelated addons if necessary, reload the UI after configuration changes, and keep a working backup so you can return to the previous setup quickly.
