Wick's Stances and Things

The warrior kit for World of Warcraft: Forever, built on WickCore.

A warrior's loadout is a stance. Half the class is locked behind the wrong one, and the cost of that is a second spent remembering which. This kit puts the three stances in a row, lights the one you are in, and gives you one key that reaches for an ability and the stance it needs.

What it does

Stance strip. One 30px row: Battle, Defensive, Berserker, a smart key, a kick key, and the two weapon swap keys. The stance you are in is ringed in fel green; stances you have not learned yet are dim. Shift-drag moves it even when locked.

The smart key. Bind an ability with /wst bind <ability>. The key puts you in the stance that ability needs and then uses it. From the right stance that is a single press. From the wrong one it takes two: the game applies a stance change and a cast from the same press as the change only, and pretending otherwise with a castsequence just makes it unpredictable. Sixteen abilities are known by name; anything else is cast where you stand.

The kick key. One key for the interrupt that fits your stance and your hands. Pummel in Berserker; Shield Bash in Battle or Defensive with a shield on; with no shield on there, the first press takes you to Berserker and the second Pummels. It hits the enemy under your mouse, else your focus, else your target, else the enemy you are facing, and it never changes your target or your focus. Its icon shows what a press uses right now, with the cooldown. One press is one interrupt on one enemy: no key can find who is casting for you, so point at them and press. Bind it under Key Bindings, AddOns.

Weapon swap keys. Two keys, tied to nothing. One puts your two-hander in your hands, the other your one-hander and shield. They remember what you last wore, so a new weapon needs nothing done to it beyond putting it on once, and they name every piece by item id so two swords called the same thing cannot pick the wrong one. With nothing remembered they take the best piece you carry; /wst pin 2h with an item link makes a key reach for one piece and no other. Each macro names where the set should end up rather than describing a move, so pressing a key twice does nothing the second time. The strip shows the piece each key puts on, with a mark on the set you are already wearing.

Worth knowing before you bind them: swapping resets your swing timer.

Pre-pull checklist. A shout up, in a stance, a weapon equipped, and a shield for Defensive when you carry one. Read out of combat, from your own auras and inventory.

Talents, racials and a cooldown bar through WickCore, the same as every other kit.

Why it is not a combat tracker

Forever's addon rules make health, power and most combat state secret. Stance is not: it is a loadout, readable at any time. Everything this kit reads is readable out of combat and nothing of Blizzard's is written to. Rage is deliberately absent for that reason.
