Season 2 is underway, so here is what Season 1 turned into.
With over 200 updates since Season 1 start. We have made countless improvements, and tons of new features. The umbrella of wow tools now covers most of your raid planning, and a bunch of analysis of your team: an addon in the game, a bot in your Discord, a Roster Report that shows data for the team, an API for your own tools, and a solver that builds your comp and fills your assignments.
Almost all of it began as a request in Discord. So if you have requests, please tell us! It helps shape what we focus on next.
If you would rather watch than read, this video also goes over some of it.
In the game
The WowUtils addon, with RCLootCouncil integration
Crests, upgrade progress and crafting sparks are exactly what a loot council needs, and Blizzard's API exposes none of it. The addon tracks it while you play and puts it in the RCLootCouncil voting window as a column, and on your own loot frame while you pick a response.
- Nothing to fill in. It picks everything up on its own and shares it around the raid after each kill.
- It goes both ways. Your team's wishlists and sim results show in game.
- Free, in beta. On CurseForge, the one named wowutils by Ironi. Another addon answers the same search.
WowUtils Bridge
WoW only reads its saved files at login or a reload, so automatic two-way data needs something on the desktop. Bridge is that, and only one person per guild has to run it.
- In: your team's wishlists and sims, straight into the game.
- Out: crests, watermarks, Spark counts and real Great Vault contents.
- Free Windows download, with instructions to verify the file before you run it.
Baldio, the Discord bot
Your raid week lives here. Your team lives in Discord. Baldio posts one into the other.
- Raid nights with the lineup attached as an image, edited in place rather than reposted.
- Signups for your raid calendar. Raiders can toggle attendance on signup posts, or any future event.
- Reminders before pull for anyone who has not answered their signup for upcoming raids, or has not refreshed stale sims.
- An officer feed of raid nights, signups, applications, plans going live and roster changes. So you can see on Discord when someone changed something on WowUtils.
- And more! The Discord bot is actively getting improved, so your feedback is very valuable to us.
It is all configured on your group's Integrations page now, instead of a wall of slash commands.
Your roster, in one place
The Roster Report
Live game data instead of a spreadsheet that was accurate on Monday and fiction by Thursday: item level and gear per slot, upgrade progress, enchants and gems, Mythic+ rating and keys, professions and Great Vault.
- It works like a spreadsheet. Sort and filter from the column headers, drag and resize columns, layout remembered.
- Filters shaped like real questions. "Has gear issues", "Not raid ready", "No key this week".
- You can see how stale it is, per character, with a queue jump for the one you need now.
Planning Hub - Your raid week, on one page
The Planning hub is the hub for your weekly plans. Every setup of the week, the bosses in it, and whether cooldowns and assignments exist for each.
- Easy overview of the week. Shows all your setups for the week, and lets you easily jump to the setup, calendar date, cds or assignments to adjust the plan.
- AutoComp for a quick setup. AutoComp lets you automatically generate a setup for the week.
Your own page in the group
Every raider gets one, which mostly means officers stop answering the same five questions.
- Raise your hand for a boss. Tick the bosses you want in on, or want to bonus roll, and your raid lead reads it off your player card in the setups planner.
- Your nights, answered in place, with the bosses you play on each.
- Your characters and sims, including which ones have gone stale.
- Easy calendar signups. Quick toggles of signup status on the right.
- A next tier check-in, plus whatever the officers need from you as a short checklist.
- Find the You page in the group hub, as the top option in the menu list.
Recruiting
Your team's own apply page, instead of a form on one site and a spreadsheet on another.
- Battle.net sign-in, so the character on the application is a real one.
- Item level, M+ score and progression sit next to their answers.
- Accepting puts them on your roster, and recruiting has its own permissions.
The calendar
A raid night carries three things: the schedule that made it, the people who answered it, and the setup that is playing it.
- Link a setup to a night and Baldio can post it with the real lineup on Discord.
- Absences land in the setup. Someone out on Thursday reads as out inside Thursday's setup.
- Call-outs bench themselves, and AutoComp builds from who is actually available.
- Attendance from your logs. Who signed up next to who showed up, mains and alts included.
The API
Pull Wowutils data into your own spreadsheets and bots. Push data like sims, signups or roster edits.
- Read: roster, resets and setups, calendar and signups, wishlists, sim freshness, activity, M+ keys.
- Write: push a sim, set a signup, edit the roster, add or remove setups.
- Writes land live, appearing for anyone with the planner open.
- Find it in the integrations in the Group Hub, off until an admin turns it on, with a points-based quota you can watch.
The Cooldown Library and templates
A public shelf of cooldown plans shared by users. Free to import, free to publish, and your raiders stay anonymous.
Also contains the Supporter perk of prefilled CD templates that fit any comp. Handcrafted by Viserio. Allows you to make a full setup worth of cds in less than a minute!
- Everything lands as a template, with cooldowns on a spec or class slot instead of a name. Dynamically adjusting when you adjust your setup.
- One template, many setups. The template can be applied to any number of setups. Perfect for splitruns or multiruns of farm content.
Curio: AutoComp and AutoAssign
AutoComp builds your setup, who plays each boss. AutoAssign fills the per-boss jobs, who soaks and kicks and stands where. A click each.
AutoAssign is built before the tier, and has updated logic throughout the tier, so your assignments stay smart.
- It solves the fight rather than copying what other guilds did, which is why it takes a moment.
- Thorough logic. Setups get built knowing if you need a DK for the fight. Assignments get shaped around the common strategies.
- Your calls stick. In and out honored, lock anyone in place by right-clicking them on the Setup.
AutoComp is free for everyone. AutoAssign is the Rare supporter tier and up, because every boss needs hand-built logic kept current as strats shift.
Assignments
Everything that is not a cooldown, on a page rebuilt around the fact that a Mythic boss has a lot of it. Integrated raidplans by Raidstrats.gg, that update when you change an assignment, and can be displayed during a ready check or during combat, with your positions highlighted.
- Updates dynamically based on your Setup. If a player is assigned from last week, but is out on the boss this week, they get highlighted so you know who to update.
- Reminders you can shape. Configure any row's reminders in game, when and how it shows. Icon, Text, Bar or Circle, raidframe glow, duration, color and text-to-speech and more!
- Raidplans edited in place, dragging players and objects without leaving the page.
- Easily digestible for your raiders. Raiders can click My Assignments on pages like the You page, Setup, Assignments or Group hub, and get a view with only their assignments visible, and their raidplan positions highlighted.
In-combat raidstrats.gg raidplans
A raidplan in a browser tab is a raidplan nobody reads mid-pull. Yours can now appear in game on a timer, with each player's own spot highlighted.
- Easily configured through the individual Assignments. Add a plan, toggle when to show which scene, import the plan in game, and the rest is handled automatically in your NSRT note.
- You place the cues on the boss timeline: when it shows, which scene, how long it stays.
- Whole raid or assigned only, with each person's own position marked.
- It follows the roster. Swap a player and the highlight moves to whoever holds the slot.
- Ready-made on several Mythic assignments, editable any time by clicking the RSGG Addon button above.
Loot
The Gear Sheet
Loot planning shaped like the in-game gear pane rather than one long wishlist.
- Click a slot for every raid and M+ drop, compared against what you wear and ranked by your sims.
- Sims grew up. Multi-spec, off-spec upgrades, off-spec trinkets, QE Live for healers, stale sims cleared.
- Class wishlists. Pick once per class, apply to any character.
- Loot history from RCLootCouncil, by character, boss or item, with a BiS rate.
Bonus roll targets
Which boss gets your coin, answered from your own sims. One card per boss, best coin first.
- Scored honestly. Average gain across every drop, with items you own and non-upgrades counting as nothing.
- Click the coin to call it, and your officers see it on your player card.
- Real rolls come back through the addon, with a history of what each one paid out.
M+ loot and the Keys board
- Dungeons ranked by what your roster still wants, with loot-spec tips per character.
- Post a run and open five seats, or mark yourself looking and let a run find you.
The guild bank
Balances, income, and boost payouts split among whoever ran it.
- The Owed tab turns what the bank owes you from an officer's memory into something you can read and request yourself.
Warcraft Logs
Top Comps
The full roster behind a top kill, and that roster's cooldowns in one click.
- Import CDs straight into a note, yours to edit from there.
- Filter to comps you could field, by guild or by the specs you run.
- Expand one for its whole cooldown timeline, not just the lineup.
These come from the logs we already pull for rankings rather than a hunt for the cleanest kills, so treat it as ideas rather than a leaderboard.
WCL Top rankings
Where the top 50 parses of your spec press every cooldown, per boss, per difficulty. Free, and no account needed to look.
- Take their timings into your CD plan, or export in-game reminders to NSRT in one click.
- Rankings and heatmap split into tabs, with a boss strip and a searchable spec picker.
WCL Review
Import a raid night and read it back the way you read the planner: a band per player, class colored, with every cooldown they pressed across every pull of the night.
- A whole night in one view. Every pull at once, with trend rows showing where each cooldown actually clusters.
- Review Assignments. Link the night to a setup and it checks the casts against your CD plan, with missed-cast counts per player.
- Compare each player to the top. Shade any cooldown row with when top-ranked players of that spec cast it, and put your casts per pull next to theirs.
- Deaths sit on the player. A skull and count on each band, and every skull says what killed them.
- Share the analysis with your group, or as a public link.
Boss and Class Guides written for CD Planners
Not how to do the fight. What hurts, when, and which cooldowns cover it.
Boss guides for the Season 2 raids are still being written, so expect them to fill in over the coming weeks.
Spell guides are one page per cooldown: what it does, how to assign it, and the talents that change it, with pick rates per boss.
A new look, and mobile
- The UI has evolved a lot since day 1. Thousands of updates to UI/UX have resulted in a mountain moved, and a pretty great website as a result. If we do say so ourselves.
- It works on a phone now. Nearly every page reworked, many with a layout built for a small screen.
Getting started
- One guided setup page: guild, realm, roster, Warcraft Logs, raid times, invites.
- Raiders get their own version when they join from an invite link.
- A Help Center with search across every guide and FAQ, rewritten to match the current screens.
Tell us what to build next
Nearly everything above exists because somebody asked for it. The Roster Report works like a spreadsheet because of one Discord message. Top Comps, mobile, the API writes, the Keys board and half the loot tools came the same way.
If something is missing, or it is there but awkward, say so. The most useful thing you can send us is the moment you got stuck: what you were trying to do, and where it stopped making sense.
If you read this far, thank you so much. We really appreciate all the people who benefit from the tools we sweat over.
As always, feedback and ideas are welcome in Discord or on the Community page.
