Shield bars on MoP Classic #1346


Closed
  • Kreynz created this issue Jun 15, 2025

    What version of Grid2  are you using (Version is displayed in General/About Tab) ?

     

    Grid2 v2.8.87-beta

     

    What game client version, classic or retail, windows or mac and language are you using ?

     

    MoP Beta

     

    What steps will reproduce the problem?

     

    Cast any of the new absorbs introduced in MoP, such as Spirit Shell, Life Cocoon, Guard etc.

      
    Did you try having Grid2 as the only enabled addon and everything else disabled?

     

    N/A

      

    Was it working in a previous version? If yes, which was the last good one?

     

    No.

      

    Do you have an error log of what happened? If you don't see any errors, make sure that error reporting is enabled (`/console scriptErrors 1`) or install [BugSack](https://mods.curse.com/addons/wow/BugSack).

      

    Please provide any additional information below.

     

    Any new shields, such as Spirit Shell, Life Cocoon, Guard, Angelic Bulwark etc. do not trigger the shield or shields-overflow status. 

     

    Also, I believe heal absorb API should be in the game now, maybe the way the retail version of grid2 handles this would work now?

    Try out 2.8.88-beta-mists version.

    It seems to be working now, thank you. 

     

    I forgot to mention, but should heal absorb API (like the kind on spine of deathwing) be in the game now like on retail? I noticed that my elvui frames displayed heal absorbs on MoP private servers, and retail grid2 is able to display this.

    The latest beta checks if heals-absorb API functions are available, and if the API functions are available the addon should display the status in:

    "Statuses/Health&Heals/heal-absorbs"

    But even if the API exists this does not mean the game should display valid information: It is not the first time blizzard enabled some API functions but forgot to fully implement the feature.

    Hello again, first of all, thank you for all the amazing work you do with grid2.

     

    I can't seem to find heal absorbs in the grid2 settings.

    On retail, it should appear here I believe.
