Blizzard's Midnight API restricts addon access to your personal buffs and cooldowns during M+ and raid — the exact content where aura tracking matters most. The addons listed here work within these restrictions and cover what WeakAuras used to handle.

Restoration Druid · Mythic+

Curated for Mythic+ healing — Wild Growth burst on chain pulls, Efflorescence pre-placed on the melee stack, Ironbark on the tank before predictable burst, and Swiftmend into Soul of the Forest for rapid single-target recovery. Reviewed 28 Jun 2026.

Talent Builds

Using this build

Wildstalker Mythic+

Wildstalker

Stronger mana efficiency and sustained HPS for longer high-key pulls. The top pick for +12 and above where fights stretch beyond 2 minutes.

Builds

Alternative M+

Keeper of the Grove

Treant burst with Force of Nature. Better for lower keys and dungeons with short, spiky damage windows where you want a big Tranquility window rather than sustained Wildstalker pressure.

Builds

Custom build

Record your own talent build alongside your addons — it's included when you share your setup. Get a talent string from the Wowhead talent calculator or export directly from the in-game talent tree (press N → share icon). Paste the URL or the raw string — both work.

Addons

Why no WeakAuras? Midnight's API blocks WeakAuras from reading your buffs and cooldowns. The addons here cover what it used to handle.

Boss timers

194.0M downloads

Works in Midnight Updated 20 May 2026

For Resto Druid, accurate timers mean you can pre-HoT before specific incoming damage rather than reacting to it — knowing a bleed or spike is 4 seconds away lets you use Swiftmend or Tranquility before the damage lands. LittleWigs is required for dungeon boss modules — install both.

Advanced Ground effect alerts

95.9M downloads

Works in Midnight Updated 1 May 2026

For Resto Druid, where your attention is split between raid frames and your own positioning, the alarm catches specific mechanics you might miss while healing. Install knowing it's significantly more limited than pre-Midnight — it covers specific tracked boss mechanics only, not general ground effects.

HPS

345.4M downloads

Works in Midnight Updated 16 May 2026

Per-spell healing breakdown — check Wild Growth vs Rejuvenation contribution to know if your blanket coverage is working, and Regrowth overheal to see if you're casting direct heals when the tank already has a safety net. Use it to tune, not to compete with other healers.

Frames & Action Bars 3

Danders Frames

HoT timers

2.9M downloads

Works in Midnight Updated 14 May 2026

Adds HoT timers directly on each frame — you can see which targets have Rejuvenation, Lifebloom, and Wild Growth at a glance without a secondary tracker. The click-cast integration means you can bind heals to mouse buttons over the frames, which is how most competitive healers play.

Dominos

Action bars

22.2M downloads

Works in Midnight Updated 10 May 2026

Healers often benefit from a cleaner action bar layout — keeping emergency cooldowns on a visible secondary bar, tucking less-used abilities out of view. Works well alongside Danders Frames and Clicked for a clean healer layout without a full UI replacement.

ElvUI

Advanced Unit frames

Tukui.org addon

Works in Midnight Updated 15 May 2026

For healers specifically, Danders Frames handles healing frames better, Clicked handles click-casting, and Dominos covers action bars — all with less setup overhead. Only install if you want a fully unified UI aesthetic and are prepared for the configuration overhead.

Cooldowns & tracking 2

OmniCD

Healer cooldowns

33.4M downloads

Works in Midnight Updated 27 Feb 2026

Tracks group cooldowns from the combat log — for Restoration Druid, shows the state of every defensive and healer cooldown in the group so you know which gaps your Innervate and Ironbark need to fill rather than spending them when coverage is already there. Also tells you when major personal defensives across the group have been used so you can judge the incoming pressure before committing your own cooldowns.

BetterCooldownManager

Healing cooldowns

938.2K downloads

Works in Midnight Updated 22 Apr 2026

Healer cooldown management is different from DPS: you don't have a fixed burst rotation, so the CD tracker needs to surface the things you might forget under pressure. BetterCooldownManager lets you prioritize your major healing cooldowns at the top with audio cues, surface Innervate when it's available (easy to forget mid-fight), and group Ironbark with Nature's Swiftness so your defensive toolkit is always visible.

Platynator

Enemy cast bars

9.5M downloads

Works in Midnight Updated 19 May 2026

Enemy cast bars on nameplates let you pre-HoT your target 2 seconds before a big hit rather than reacting after — Restoration Druid's proactive toolkit works best when damage is anticipated. Also helps with positioning: knowing which casts are dangerous keeps you from channelling into avoidable effects.

TargetedSpells

M+ Targeted casts

743.8K downloads

Works in Midnight Updated 2 May 2026

Visual and audio alert when a dangerous ability starts casting at you specifically, giving you the reaction window to Barkskin before the hit rather than scrambling at low health mid-cast on someone else. Configure per dungeon for the abilities that require a personal — most healers use it for 3–5 specific casts per dungeon.

Mythic Dungeon Tools

Dungeon maps

93.8M downloads

Works in Midnight Updated 20 May 2026

For Resto Druid the value is knowing when a large damage pull is coming before it happens — when to pre-HoT the tank entering a big pack, and where to save Tranquility versus spending it early on a smaller pull. Import community routes from Keystone.guru or build your own around your tank's preferred path.

Raider.IO

Player scores

431.7M downloads

Works in Midnight Updated 25 May 2026

Shows every player's Mythic+ score and raid progression in a tooltip. As a healer applying to M+ groups, your score is what group leaders check before accepting — a visible track record signals you know how to keep people alive in the content you're queuing for.

Mouse bindings

458.5K downloads

Works in Midnight Updated 1 May 2026

Bind heals to mouse button + modifier combinations on any raid frame — left-click for Rejuvenation, right-click for Regrowth, Alt+click for Lifebloom. Works with Danders Frames and Blizzard's default frames — it's the fastest possible targeting method for a HoT-heavy healer.

Keystones

17.5M downloads

Works in Midnight Updated 10 May 2026

Shows keystones, M+ ratings, and vault progress for your group before the pull. Knowing your group's experience level affects how aggressively you pre-HoT vs react — the vault panel also shows who still needs their weekly slot filled.
