WeaponSwingTimer SixxFix

Weapon Swing Timer - Sixx Fix
Continuing my improvements of the WST addon originally by LeftHandedGlove. Huge thanks to him for starting it! Description from original WST for simplicity.

WeaponSwingTimer is an addon for WoW Classic that tracks your's and your target's swing timers.

If you're a hunter, it tracks Auto Shot timing and castable shots cast time.

If you use a wand, it also tracks when your shots will go off.

 

Melee Bars

The melee bars track the player's and target's main-hand and off-hand swings.

It resets on abilities that would reset a swing timer, such as Warrior's Slam, and also takes parry haste into account.

Both frames can be moved around with the typical click-and-drag.

A configuration window can be brought up with /wst where more visual options are available. 

 

Hunter / Wand Bars

The shot bars track the player's Auto Shot / Shoot timing and also track the cast time for Aimed Shot and Multi-Shot. The shot bar turns white when an Auto Shot / Shoot projectile leaves the player.

While the bar is white, the player can move and cast freely without clipping their next Auto Shot or Shoot.

When the white bar is depleted, the player should stand still while their Auto Shot or Shoot is 'casting'.

 

 

Installation

- Download the latest .zip file for your WoW version.

- Wait for the zip file to download.

- Unzip the WeaponSwingTimer folder into Interface\Addons.

- It should look like Interface\Addons\WeaponSwingTimer\WeaponSwingTimer.toc

 

ABOUT THIS LISTING

This page describes WeaponSwingTimer SixxFix by WatchYourSixx. The description and screenshots are the author's own, imported from their listing on CurseForge on 26 October 2026: https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/weaponswingtimer-sixxfix

Mythiq.net hosts no files for it. The download button goes straight to the release file on edge.forgecdn.net, so you are downloading from the author's own host, not from a copy of ours.

The download count, rating and comments on this page start at zero and count Mythiq.net only. The source's own figures are not copied here — they measure a different site, and a number that cannot be checked against our own ledger is not worth printing.

GAME FLAVOUR

This is a Classic build. Retail and Classic run different interface APIs, and an addon built for one throws Lua errors on the other — check you are installing into the right client folder.

INTERFACE VERSION

Built against game version 1.15.8. After a patch, an addon that has not been updated is flagged out of date; most keep working, and the "Load out of date AddOns" checkbox on the character screen lets you try.

DEPENDENCIES

Some addons need a separate library addon (Ace3, LibStub and friends) that is not bundled. If the addon does not appear in the list in game, a missing dependency is the usual reason.

1. Quit World of Warcraft completely. The game reads the AddOns folder at launch and will overwrite settings for an addon added while it is running.

2. Download the archive with the button on this page and unzip it.

3. Move the folder — the one with the .toc file in it, not the zip's wrapper folder — into:

World of Warcraft\_classic_era_\Interface\AddOns (or _classic_ for the current Classic expansion)

4. Start the game. On the character selection screen, click AddOns and check that it is listed and enabled.

IF IT DOES NOT APPEAR

Nine times out of ten the folder is nested one level too deep. Interface/AddOns/Thing/Thing/Thing.toc will not load; Interface/AddOns/Thing/Thing.toc will.

UPDATING

Delete the old folder before unzipping the new one. Unzipping over the top leaves files behind that the new version no longer expects.
