Notable UI Changes Coming in 7.1
Originally Posted by Blizzard (Blue Tracker / Official Forums)
Patch 7.1 includes several changes to WoW UI functions, and we wanted to call extra attention to a few of them, as they may break some functionality provided by addons. This is not a comprehensive list of all of 7.1’s UI API changes, just the ones we thought addon authors would be most interested in. If you’re not an addon author, feel free to ignore this post, as it’s only covering technical changes to how addons interact with the game.

Unit Position changes

Several unit positioning/facing/range APIs have been restricted so that they will only return valid values when the following criteria are met:

  • Unit is the active player or in the party
  • Unit is not in any kind of instance PvE or PvP.

The following functions have been affected:
GetPlayerMapPosition
UnitCameraFacing
UnitDistanceSquared
UnitFacing
UnitPosition (note: when in the restricted state, the mapID return is still valid)

There are new ways to access units on the map:
"AddUnit",
"AddUnitFileID",
"AddUnitAtlas",
"ClearUnits",
"FinalizeUnits", It's illegal to call AddUnit after a call to Finalize in the same frame that this was finalized.
"SetPlayerPingTexture",
"StartPlayerPing",
"StopPlayerPing",
"GetMouseOverUnits",
"SetOverrideMapID",
"GetOverrideMapID",

Intrinsics
It’s now possible to create an “intrinsic” frame template. Intrinsics are similar to virtual XML templates but have a few special behaviors.

(See the full post for more details)

Nameplates
In patch 7.1, addons have been restricted from acting on nameplate. Addons can still gather information, target, and customize nameplates, but can no longer use their unit tokens for spell casts. This is similar to how nameplates worked in Warlords of Draenor.

Functions were added to help addons:

Added:
SetNamePlateFriendlySize,
GetNamePlateFriendlySize,
SetNamePlateEnemySize,
GetNamePlateEnemySize,
SetNamePlateSelfClickThrough,
GetNamePlateSelfClickThrough,
SetNameplateFriendlyClickThrough,
GetNameplateFriendlyClickThrough,
SetNamePlateEnemyClickThrough,
GetNamePlateEnemyClickThrough

These functions allow a specific area on the nameplate to be marked as a preferred click area such that if the nameplate position query results in two overlapping nameplates, the nameplate with the position inside its preferred area will be returned:

SetNamePlateSelfPreferredClickInsets,
GetNamePlateSelfPreferredClickInsets,
SetNamePlateFriendlyPreferredClickInsets,
GetNamePlateFriendlyPreferredClickInsets,
SetNamePlateEnemyPreferredClickInsets,
GetNamePlateEnemyPreferredClickInsets,

Removed:
SetNamePlateOtherSize
GetNamePlateOtherSize

    Does the change to Venomous Wounds include the old mechanic as well or is it completely revised? Energy gen without Tea/Vendetta is already slow as fuck, if it's just when enemies die it's going to be hell for single target boss fights.

    "Marked for Death Marks the target, instantly generating 0 combo points." Slightly amusing. I wonder what they actually intend to do with it.

    Yeah, something is really, really fucking broken with him. He spawns like 50+ adds and it lags the fuck out of everything. Even with my 3.5ghz quad core processor and GTX 970, I was running at like 10 fps.

    Even outside of that, the whole area was just a mess of ground-based AoE zones that exploded for like 40% of your health, just being spammed everywhere all the time. What the fuck even is this world boss?

    I just stayed back as far as I could and kept myself alive, while keeping a single DoT on 'em. Got me a nice trinket.

    First off, EnemyGrid (and anything related) will be gutted.

    Second, unit frames that showed the direction of out of range players (mostly for healers) will no longer be able to do that. In addition any boss mod that relied on knowing where other players were in relation to you will be broken, as will any boss mod that relied on knowing how close you were to other players will be seriously limited.

    For a concrete example, any addon that helped with wrought chaos or shackled torment on Mythic Archimonde will be broken, as will basically any addon that popped up a "GPS nav style" arrow in combat for any reason, or which displayed a "radar" type display to help players spread out (eg, to avoid shadowfel burst).

    It's a pretty massive change, honestly, and I'm a little skeptical about it.

    Uhm yeah it did.

    Mogushan release schedule from MoP. 1 boss less and came out way quicker than EN. https://worldofwarcraft.com/en-us/ne...-raid-schedule

    Heart of Fear. https://worldofwarcraft.com/en-us/news/7705231

    Throne of Thunder. https://worldofwarcraft.com/en-us/ne...-raid-schedule

    You get the point basically gating has been the same for most if not all the raids. Throne was bigger so of course it could be gated longer. Same with Siege. Siege was actually gated longer because they could due to it being both a large raid and having a new difficulty in the form of Flex. As for the 10.1 mil subs turns out it was a misquote so we have no idea how many are playing again now.

    How about that nameplate thing? Will it still be possible to have a hovermacro for spell and use on people's nameplates? Like if you have spell interrupt on a hovermacro so you dont have to swap target to interrupt a secondary enemy?
