About this addon

What it does

Sheepdog

NOTE: Type /SHEEPDOG to open the configuration panel. Sheepdog's options are not directly available in the "Interface" panel due to ongoing tainting issues Blizzard is not willing to fix.

Useful to all classes this very simple add-on will prevent you from accidentally attacking crowd-controlled units. Sheepdog will keep them safe from you!

Features:

  • It barks when you target a crowd-controlled unit.

  • It warns you gently when a unit has been crowd-controlled somewhere nearby so you can be a little bit more cautious with your AOEs.

Sheepdog doesn't bite!

Currently detected crowd-control spells:

  • Banish
  • Bind Elemental
  • Fear (Should be just glyphed-Fear but there is no way to tell them apart)
  • Hex
  • Hibernate
  • Polymorph
  • Repentance
  • Sap
  • Seduction
  • Shackle Undead
  • Wyvern Sting
  • Paralysis

Type /sheepdog (Graphical UI) or /shed (command line UI) for options (sounds and behavior).
