NEW ERA: CHANGELOG
Hi WoTLK Private Servers. We have significantly changed the way we approach Wrath 3.3.5 MerfinUI. We did a deep analysis of the weak points and improved everything to take a new and more professional step forward.
Support and team expansion
Before, I was working on all expansions alone while also trying to answer everyone. It was a huge amount of work and I could not maintain top level quality everywhere. Sometimes there were issues that stayed unresolved for months. This will change from now on because I expanded the MerfinUI team and now more people are taking care of everything. For you this means faster support, more frequent fixes, and more regular content updates.
Fair subscription tiers
I always had difficulties giving fair treatment to different subscription tiers. In this update we improved this a lot by properly distributing content between all tiers. If you want something basic you choose Silver. If you want advanced features you choose Gold. To make everything clear we created a spreadsheet with Membership Levels where you can see exactly what is included in each subscription. You can check it out here
Better content organization
I added new content storages. Every WeakAura now has a proper description so you can fully understand what it does.
More WeakAuras
I ported many auras from Wrath Classic and Titan Reforged. More details about this will come in future posts.
Community feedback channel
We added a feedback channel where you can leave your thoughts and report issues. We will review everything and fix the bugs you find.
Regular monthly updates
From now on we will make sure to bring you something cool at least once every month. There is still a lot of missing content and I have tons of ideas to implement.
UI Anchors
I introduced a new aura group that we already use on MoP and TRR expansions. This is a position controller group for all general and class auras. If you want to reposition the groups once without having to do it again in the future when you update specific auras, use this WeakAura. All other groups are anchored to these dummy auras and inherit their positions.
Sizes Adjustments
Only class auras have different packs depending on the resolution. All other auras are automatically adjusted in size by the smart grow functions when adjustment is needed.
General auras
- All general auras are now placed into different packs. Yes, it might feel a bit overwhelming to import everything, but you do not really need to have it all. Now you only import the auras you actually want to use, and it will be much easier to update them in the future. You can read the description of every aura on the page to decide if you want it or not.
- Almost every general aura was revisited. I also added a lot of new ones:External DefensivesTarget Raid DebuffsEscape ItemsRaid Buffs HUDItem Manual Swapper (Holy Paladin)
Reminders
- A new group of icons was added. It replaced some text reminders because text reminders were not always clear, and showing “use bomb” as an icon is much better than showing it as text, for example.
- All text reminders were increased in size.
New raid cooldowns (2026)
I ported the newest version of Raid Cooldowns with the Buff Duration feature. Now we track the duration of the buff that a cooldown provides on top of the bar or icon before it shows the actual cooldown. Instead of having only one aura, I also added new types:
We have ported all Raid Packs from Wrath Classic.
- T7 was fully backported thanks to @NoM0Re
- T8 was fully backported thanks to @FrosT
- T9 was fully backported thanks to me .
- T10 is still unchanged from the previous version. I only replaced Pre Warning Bars with text. We will revisit it soon to make sure it reaches top level quality
Most groups are now anchored to Raid Anchors, but some elements are still not. This is something we will continue working on in the coming weeks. You may experience minor issues here and there, but everything will be polished over time.
We still have a lot to fix and rework. But this major step helped us change the structure, so future updates will not take as long and will be much easier to implement into the system ❤️
