What it does

Thanks for the Buff (TFTB)

Automatically thank players who buff you with emotes, whispers, and chat notifications, whether it's a stranger in the open world or a teammate's cooldown like Power Infusion or Innervate. Get a heads-up for feasts, portals, and same-class cooldowns too.

Features

πŸ™Œ Every Buff Gets a Thank-You // Be the player who always says thanks β€” to the stranger who buffs you in passing and the teammate who burns a cooldown on you β€” without ever stopping to type it.

πŸ– Group Services // A heads-up the moment someone sets out a feast, drops a soulwell, opens a portal, or puts down a repair bot for the group.

πŸ“£ Give Good News // Whisper the players you buff to tell them what they got and how long it lasts β€” perfect for Power Infusion, a clutch Innervate, or a soulstone before the pull.

πŸš‚ Feel Peer Pressure // Get pinged the moment another player of your class pops a cooldown, so you can stack yours on top.

πŸ™ Thank You Button // A one-click - Thank macro that emotes at your target and whispers them a personal thank-you β€” great for a healer, a mage's portal, or a warlock's summon.

Setup

  1. Install the add-on, ideally using CurseForge or Wago.
  2. Log in β€” sensible defaults are already on, so a teammate's buffs start printing to your chat right away.
  3. Type /tftb to choose how you react to each kind of buff β€” chat note, whisper, emote, sound, or any mix β€” and pick which emotes to use.
  4. Out in the world, strangers' buffs get an automatic emote; tune the cooldowns, the minimum duration, and an optional delay so it stays classy.
  5. Drag the auto-created - Thank macro to your action bar to thank your target on demand.
  6. "Manners maketh the raid."

How It Works

Type /tftb to open the options panel. Buffs from strangers, buffs from teammates, and group services each get their own tab, and every tab splits the same way: Praise Messages & Emotes is what the player who helped you sees, and Notifications is the chat note and sound only you get. Turn on whichever you like, add a short delay so your thanks doesn't land in the same instant as the buff, and set cooldowns so a wave of world buffs never turns into spam. Good News whispers the people you buff, and Peer Pressure pings you when a same-class player pops a cooldown. You can toggle individual abilities and items on or off anywhere they appear.

Only the abilities your client actually has show up in the options panel, so you never get a checkbox for something that doesn't exist in your game yet. Peer Pressure keeps its own, much longer list of class cooldowns on its own tab.
