About Pull Countdown

"Pulling Hogger in 3.."
"2.."
"1.."
"GO!"

Simple, standalone addon to aid in creating a pull countdown announce.

Features

Automatic selection of the appropriate output:

  • /rw if in raid and leader or assistant
  • /ra if in raid
  • /p if in party
  • /s if solo
  • Target included if exists.
  • Can abort a pull in progress.
  • New* Customizable pull messages.

How to Use

Short help and output customization options can be found in
Blizzard's Game Menu -> Interface -> AddOns -> PullCountdown
including a convenient button to auto-generate a pull macro.

Macro can also be created manually for better customization.

  1. Create a macro with this macro text
    /run PullCountdown.Pull(#)
    
    # is the timer, if omitted it defaults to 3.
  2. Open the Game Menu -> Key Bindings, look for "Pull Countdown" and set a key of your preference.
    The simple keybind method doesn't allow for customization of the pull timer, it will use the default value.

Aborting a pull

Clicking the macro or pressing the keybind a second time while a countdown is in progress
aborts the countdown and announces in the appropriate channel.

    Also like the idea, however, most my guild use DBM for this feature, and they then can have it spaced. We use 5 sec countdowns, and then it goes "Pulling in 5, 3, 2, 1 now".
    Just one RW less each time, but it do make a difference :)

    Anything you can add possibly? Even more useful for people using even longer pull timers.

    Great addon but is there a way to add "potion" at 3 on the countdown?
