Wipefest in Classic Fresh Anniversary

This is the second time that Wipefest has added support for a Classic Fresh raid. Like this? Let us know! We'd love any feedback on how helpful it is and any possible improvements. We've done our best to adapt Wipefest to the needs of this different era of raiding, including making sure we track world buffs, multiple tier sets at once, and even first aid bandages!

Let's dig into some examples of what mechanics Wipefest can automatically analyze for you in Naxxramas! Make sure to check every boss in your own reports for your needs, as below are just some examples of the analysis Wipefest provides for your raid.

All Bosses

Some insights that Wipefest provides are available on all bosses. For example, this ready check insight gives an overview of enchants, gear, and world buffs to help spot any missing gaps. Note that food and flasks are not included here because the logging for them is inaccurate.

You can also get an overview of combat and mana potions...

... as well as healing potions, healthstones, and bandages!

Specific Encounters

Many encounters require custom insights for their mechanics. Some are simple, but others really help you dive deep into your raid's performance. Here are some examples of insights we've created for Naxxramas.

Sometimes there are mechanics that can be a headache to dig through in logs—such as when a hungry doggy like Gluth heals himself from eating Zombies. Wipefest helps make finding and analyzing these mechanics easy.

"Don't stand in fire" is rule #1 when it comes to raiding. But hey... we all do sometimes. We'll help you check (don't worry, we won't tell).

Buff management is a vital aspect of this fight. Make sure you and your raid aren't missing out on this massive damage increase.

Keeping an eye on your raid's debuffs can often be just as important. Quick dispels on Maexxna will make your tanks' lives much better!

Sometimes, looking at friendly fire is the easiest way to view a failed mechanic—in this case, who is standing in the wrong spot. Wipefest will help surface this information for you, breaking it down to help you see who made a mistake.

Looking at unfiltered damage taken often isn't enough. For example, some mechanics will always hit a targeted player, but will also hit nearby players who stand too close. Targeted players are excluded from showing up in insights like this.

There are times when a mechanic needs to be handled differently by different roles. Frost Blast requires ranged players to spread, but melee players to stack in small groups. Wipefest has separate insights to split this mechanic up!

New Feature: Ignore Events After a Wipe Has Been Called

Wipefest has always supported letting you ignore events after 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 deaths to help you hone in on what happened before a wipe was called. However, now you can use a more accurate "Ignore events after wipe called" option that integrates with the Warcraft Logs Uploader "Call Wipe" hotkey. If the logging player uses this hotkey while playing, you can tell Wipefest to ignore all events that happened afterwards.

Regardless of whether the threshold is enabled, a "Wipe Called" title event will show in the timeline to indicate when the logging player called a wipe.

Wrapping Up

This is just a taste of some of the mechanical analysis that Wipefest has to offer, alongside other features such as player scores, event timelines, guides, and multi-pull analysis.

If you get stuck, we have an article of frequently asked questions, as well as a Discord server where you can discuss with other Wipefest users.

Good luck, have fun!
