Dungeon and Raid Addons

Yes, DBM and BigWigs both have WoW Forever versions with their Vanilla modules, and Details has one since October 6. LittleWigs, the dungeon pack of BigWigs, has none yet. Forever has no Blizzard boss timeline, so a boss mod stays the one addon every group wants. Below are boss mods, meters, aura addons and loot tables with their status.

What the game already does

  • The built-in Damage Meter shows damage, healing and actions in several windows.
  • There is no boss ability timeline like in Retail, so boss timers only come from boss mods.
  • Meeting Stones open the Group Finder, they do not summon anyone.

DBM and BigWigs: here, with gaps

Both have Forever versions and use their Vanilla modules. Whether they cover the nine new dungeons and the first raids of December 9 is not confirmed yet. LittleWigs, the dungeon pack of BigWigs, has no Forever version.

Meters under the new rules

The combat log is closed to addons, so every meter has to read Blizzard's damage meter. Forever Details Meter does that, and Details has a Forever version since October 6. Threat meters lose their exact numbers in combat.

On this site for the same job

Our own guides cover the same ground. A boss mod tells you what is coming, it does not find you a group. If you want the runs without the waiting, a WoW Forever dungeon boost runs them with you.

FAQ

Does DBM work in WoW Forever?

Yes, DBM and BigWigs both have Forever versions. They use their Vanilla modules. Whether they cover the nine new dungeons and the first raids of December 9 is not confirmed yet.

Why do I need a boss mod in WoW Forever?

Retail's built-in boss timeline is switched off in Forever. Without DBM or BigWigs you get no timers for boss abilities.

Which damage meter works in WoW Forever?

The built-in Damage Meter, Details since October 6 and Forever Details Meter, which read the game's own meter. Meters that read the combat log, like Skada, cannot work.

Is there a boss mod for five-player dungeons in WoW Forever?

Yes, DBM with its Vanilla module pack, which has a Forever version and covers the old dungeons. BigWigs needs LittleWigs for dungeons, and LittleWigs has no Forever version yet, so for five-player runs DBM is the safer pick today.
