WoW Midnight (12.0) addon that tracks daily Majestic Lure beast cooldowns and much more across all your skinning characters.

---

Why Majestic Beast Tracker?

Majestic Lures have a daily cooldown that resets with the daily server reset (same as daily quests). Blizzard provides no in-game indicator for these cooldowns:

If you have multiple skinners, at certain point, it's becoming hard to remember which character has used which lure on given date. No more Google Sheets or guessing.

Simplify consumable usage / teleports / lure crafting etc.

Cooldown Mechanics

• Each lure has an independent daily cooldown
• You can use all 5 lures in the same day
• Cooldowns reset at the daily server reset (same as quest reset)
• The addon records kill timestamps and compares against C_DateAndTime.GetSecondsUntilDailyReset()

Prerequisites

Requires Skinning with Talented Tracker specialization points

Technical Notes

• Kill detection uses hidden quest flags via C_QuestLog.IsQuestFlaggedCompleted() (CLEU was removed for addons in Midnight 12.0)
• Uses BackdropTemplate (safe in 12.0)
• SavedVariables: MajesticBeastTrackerDB (account-wide)
• Dependencies: LibStub, CallbackHandler, LibDataBroker, LibDBIcon
• Talent detection via numeric pathNode/perkNode IDs from Midnight Skinning profession tree
• All consumable buff detection via spell IDs (locale-safe)
