Blizzard's Midnight API restricts addon access to your personal buffs and cooldowns during M+ and raid — the exact content where aura tracking matters most. The addons listed here work within these restrictions and cover what WeakAuras used to handle.

Builds

Custom build

Record your own talent build alongside your addons — it's included when you share your setup. Get a talent string from the Wowhead talent calculator or export directly from the in-game talent tree (press N → share icon). Paste the URL or the raw string — both work.

Addons

Why no WeakAuras? Midnight's API blocks WeakAuras from reading your buffs and cooldowns. The addons here cover what it used to handle.

Meters & logs 1

Details! Damage Meter

Damage meters

345.4M downloads

Works in Midnight Updated 10 May 2026

Per-spell breakdown across the fight — for Fire Mage, check what percentage comes from Combustion windows versus filler; if the ratio is off, you're losing Combustion casts or not stacking Fire Blast charges correctly going into the window. Flamestrike share tells you whether your AoE positioning is hitting the full cluster of targets.

Nameplates & interrupts 1

Platynator

Nameplates

9.5M downloads

Works in Midnight Updated 20 Apr 2026

Cast bars and debuff icons on enemy nameplates — for Fire Mage in M+, the main value is seeing interruptible casts that need a Counterspell and tracking which enemies have Living Bomb active in multi-target situations. More performant than Plater for players who don't need heavy scripting.

Tracks: Nameplates · Cast bars · Living Bomb · Counterspell targeting
Requires: Standalone addon · CurseForge

Cooldowns & tracking 2

OmniCD

Group cooldowns

33.4M downloads

Works in Midnight Updated 27 Feb 2026

Tracks group cooldowns from the combat log — for Fire Mage, most valuable for Heroism/Bloodlust tracking so you hold Combustion for the lust window rather than burning it on a filler pull. Also shows kick availability so Counterspell covers interrupt gaps rather than overlapping with another caster's kick.

BetterCooldownManager

Personal cooldowns

938.2K downloads

Works in Midnight Updated 15 Mar 2026

Configurable timers for your major cooldowns on screen. Tracks Combustion, Fire Blast charges, and Phoenix Flames together so you can plan the opener — ideally entering with full charges so you guarantee consecutive Hot Streak procs through the entire Combustion window.

Tracks: Personal cooldowns · Combustion · Fire Blast charges · Phoenix Flames

Rotation helper 1

MaxDps

Next ability highlight

5.8M downloads

Works in Midnight Updated 1 Apr 2026

Highlights the next optimal ability based on your current proc state and cooldown availability — priority changes significantly inside and outside Combustion, and MaxDps tracks that automatically. Useful for players learning the spec or returning after a patch reorders the priority list.

Frames & Action Bars 3

BetterBlizzFrames

Unit frames

6.1M downloads

Works in Midnight Updated 17 May 2026

BetterBlizzFrames keeps the default UI intact while adding the things it lacks: castbars on your target and focus frames, class color health bars, and absorb tracking. For Fire Mage, a target castbar is useful for timing Counterspell on the correct cast in M+ without relying solely on BigWigs timers. A one-addon upgrade with no layout overhead.

Requires: Standalone addon · CurseForge

Dominos

Action bars

22.2M downloads

Works in Midnight Updated 10 May 2026

Dominos gives you full control over action bar layout. For Fire Mage, a dedicated utility bar keeps Counterspell, Ice Block, Blink, Shimmer, and Alter Time at consistent accessible positions so your main bar stays focused on the Combustion rotation.

Tracks: Action bars · Bar positioning · Button sizing · Fade out of combat

ElvUI

Advanced Unit frames

Tukui.org addon

Works in Midnight Updated 15 May 2026

Most of what ElvUI covers for Fire Mage is better handled by BetterBlizzFrames (frames), Dominos (action bars), and Platynator (nameplates). Only install if you want a fully unified UI aesthetic and are prepared for the configuration overhead.

Utility & QoL 3

Leatrix Plus

Auto repair

63.9M downloads

Works in Midnight Updated 10 Mar 2026

Leatrix Plus is a collection of small QoL improvements: auto-repair at vendors, auto-sell grey items, remove NPC dialogue delays, block duel requests. Install once, configure in 5 minutes, and stop thinking about it.

Bagnon

Bag consolidation

159.9M downloads

Works in Midnight Updated 5 Mar 2026

Bagnon merges all your bags into a single scrollable window with a search bar. For Fire Mage, quickly finding Mana Gems, potions, and consumables without opening bag slots one at a time before a key or pull saves pre-pull preparation time.

Pawn

Upgrade arrows

125.6M downloads

Works in Midnight Updated 1 Mar 2026

Adds an upgrade arrow to item tooltips based on your stat weights. For Fire Mage, primarily highlights Intellect, Crit (Hot Streak proc rate and Combustion uptime), and Haste (cast speed) gear without needing to sim every drop.
