World of Warcraft Classic Discussion Megathread

I'm aware that retail uses an addon to make "stuff" work, how is classic looking in this regard ? Im just fooling around with starter accounts checking things out for now. Kinda bummed you can't do any dungeons but w/e

Classic is expected to use the same modern UI that is being used in retail, but the ISBoxer add-on has never been required in order to make ISBoxer work with WoW, seeing that it works with many other games, all of which do not have the same level of add-on capability. As for the "stuff" that the ISBoxer add-on does, is it just stores the macros created in ISBoxer and assigns them a key bind, in game.

So in theory with enough keybinds WITHOUT the addon, you could achieve the same functionality ? I just want to make sure thinks will work once classic comes out, im a total newbie at multiboxing. I saw your video in classic using an "FTL ?" system. Very interesting work thanks for that !

You answered your own question:

If you saw my video(s), then, based on the fact that add-ons were disabled for the demo, you know that such a setup can be used without the add-on.

You can also simulate some in-game functions using ISBoxer to a degree.

For example, creating a keymap with multiple actions per step for skills with short cooldowns works as a pseudo-castsequence.
