About EveryBodyGuard

EveryBodyGuard helps tanks to switch guard in their groups more effectively.
It will disable itself if your character are not a tank.

Simple Usage

Click on the groupmember in trouble until it says it has guard. (red circle)

Complete Description

Actions based on Clicks or Hotkeys

If you left click (or use a hotkey) on one of you groupmember through EBG these are the things that happen.

  1. If you don't target this member already -> target member
  2. If somebody other than your target has guard from you -> release guard
  3. If your are not guarding your target already -> guard target
  4. Your target has already guard from you -> DO NOTHING

Right Click → assist groupmember (only Standard Display)

Display

  • The white frame displays the current target. (only Standard Display)
  • The yellow indicator shows that you tried to give this groupmember guard,
    but the server didn't confirmed it yet.
  • The indicator will flash white if you have a running global coooldown,
    this means guard has been blocked because it would have failed anyway.
  • The red indicator shows that this groupmember has guard from you.
  • There will be an icon above the head of you guard target.
  • The frames are moveable independently to adjust the layout to your UI. (only Standard Display)

Hotkeys

Your Hotkeys from "Target Groupmember X" will be read out and transfered to "Actionbar 67-71". You can change them through Mythics settings if you need. Everytime the addon shuts down the Hotkeys will be transfered back. So if EBG is active, your standard groupmember target buttons will be redirected to trigger EBG functions. If you disable this feature in the settings window you'll need to set your Hotkeys manually.

Settings

If you have LibSlash installed you can use "/EveryBodyGuard" or "/ebg" to open it.

  • Choose your Display, the Standard one or one that is integrates into Squared.
  • Disable the HeadIcon if you don't need it.
  • Disable the automatic Hotkey reassign if you have continous problems with it.

Known Problems

  • Some user have occasionally problems with the automatic hotkey reassign

    Atm you need to have squared enabled or ebg wont load (some hidden dependency?).

    Hi Crestor,

    Great addon! Possible to make a customise section for the head icon? Would love to have the look like the ones on the Enemy addon, which shows an Arrow pointing down on the player. Laughing

    Currently I can't implement something like this, becuase I forced myself to quite WAR for the time I write on my diploma thesis. After that I'll see what I can do for that.

  • #47
    Is it possible to put on right click the oath friend skill?
  • #48
    No it is not, but there are other possible solutions.

    Mod fails on load with new 1.4 patch otherwise everything worked good to that point.

    Love this mod btw makes being a tank so much more enjoyable. Keep up the good work
  • #43
    It loads for me here.
    Please look into your Addon overview
    select EBG and look why it says it can't load.
  • #44
    I'm uninstalling and reinstalling all my mods tonight since a number of them suddenly quit working , I didn't get a chance to read the msg before I uninstalled it , I'll let you know if i still have issues with it , thx
  • #45
    Ok so I figured out what my issue was , when I patched War I had to re-enable all of my mods and didn't do so for squared being as I never used it I didn't realize it was a dependency for EBG. Everything is working fine now.
  • #46
    It is a "optional" dependency.
    But through a bug of mythic you can't have a optional dependency installed but not enabled.
    So you can have Squared enabled or completely uninstalled
    but if you have it installed but not enabled, the client starts to complain.

    OMG could you please stop being so lazy and update this addon for the lastest patch please. Ur killing me here! This addon has to be the number UNO best addon for tanks that actually know how to play their class. Guard switching is essential and without this addon its super hard to do it.
  • #29
    I'm not lazy, I work on my other addons and I have a RL too.
    As far as I can see you haven't filed a bugreport yet,
    I would really appreciate if you could write one if EBG doesn't work as expeted.
    http://war.curseforge.com/addons/ebg/tickets/
    You can use your normal curse.com account there.
    There is also an already open ticket,
    where some constructive feedback would be good.

    If the bug fix is important and I have a solution for the other ticket
    I'll begin working on EBG in the next days again.

    ok I have sent a bug report to mythic in game, and hopefully it will get fixed. I am currently the only rr80 tank that still plays in our guild, and i am constantly having to be in a group with 5 others that I have to float guard too. it is super hard to do that without this amazing addon, I was actually in a situation today where I rage quit a scenario becuz I wasnt able to switch guard fast enough to one of the dps in my grp. Just those few seconds of clicking on a target, than finding your guard botton on your action bar, can cause you an entire scenario. Please I have never begged for something this important in my life before, so i'm beggin you please fix this addon so I can enjoy playing my tank again.
  • #31
    I think you misunderstood me,
    it could be that EBG has errors, but you have to tell me what these problems are and how I can reproduce them.
    I can't start fixing when I don't even know what I'm searching for.
    Tell me what it is and I start fixing it as fast as I can.
