🗺️ Wolf Pack roadmap

Gear you had already won kept showing up as gear you still wanted — and the alt list threw away what you typed into it.

• 🏆 Your wins are no longer forgotten past the hundredth one — The panel only ever checked your hundred most recent awards when working out what you had won, and it sorted them by when our copy of OpenDKP last refreshed rather than by when you actually won them — so which hundred it looked at was close to random and shifted every week. If you have more than a hundred pieces of loot, the rest came back as “bid on but not yet won” and as recent misses. It now reads your whole award history, and your wins list is in the order you won them. This one is already live for everyone. Reported by Hitya.
• 👤 Your characters come from OpenDKP now — You should not have to type your own main and alts — OpenDKP already knows them. They fill in on their own when you sign in, and any character OpenDKP knows about that your list is missing gets added. Anything you typed yourself stays put, and there is a button to replace your list with OpenDKP’s outright if you would rather start clean.
• 🕶 Your loot history stays hidden until you ask for it — The wishlist, misses and wins now start closed behind a “show my loot history” button, and close again every time the dashboard loads. People share their screen during raids, and a wishlist on display tells everyone else exactly what you are saving for. Suggested by Hitya.
• ✕ Take anything off the list — Every wishlist and miss row has an ✕ to hide it — useful for the items the panel guessed at from your old bids that you have no interest in any more. A “restore all” link brings them back, so a mis-click costs you nothing. This is only on your own PC; nothing is sent anywhere.
• 🗓 The list opens on the current expansion — Instead of every item you have ever bid on going back to Classic, the expansion filter starts on the one being raided now — worked out from your newest award, so it moves on by itself when the next expansion opens. If that would leave you with an empty list it shows everything instead.

When two mobs share a name, nothing the game hands us can tell them apart — except a /tag. Marking a mob quietly carries a hidden ID that is the only thing separating one “a decaying skeleton” from the other four, and this release makes that work properly.

• 🏷 Tagging is how we tell identical mobs apart — but check two settings — Live in The Deep we separated seventeen simultaneous “an elder thought horror” purely from tags. That only works if your tag actually reaches the log, and two Zeal options silently stop it. “Suppress tag msgs” drops the message entirely, and “Prettyprint tag msgs” rewrites it and throws away the ID — leaving just the name we already had. In both cases the arrow still appears over the mob, so it looks like it worked when nobody received it. Turn both OFF. Mimic’s tag card now warns you if either is on, and tells you when the game’s chat limit ate a tag so you know to send it again. Thanks to Adiwen, Rockin and Dafeet for the live testing that found all of this.
• 🗂 Huge logs tidy themselves up — A log file over 500 MB gets moved into a LogArchive folder once you have stopped playing that character, and EverQuest starts a fresh one. Nothing is ever deleted — your old logs stay on your disk and can still be used to fill in past raids. There is a card on the dashboard showing what is about to be archived and a one-click off switch. Suggested by Ashieron.
• ⏱ Timers can warn you more than once — A tank buster can now call out at ten seconds AND at four, instead of forcing a choice. A timer can also read its length straight out of the game text when a mob announces its own timing, one trigger can run several separate countdowns at once (one per mez target, say), and abilities with only a recast — Feign Death, Lay on Hands — can finally show a bar telling you when they are back. Triggers you already wrote keep working exactly as they did.
• 📥 Imported GINA and EQLogParser triggers actually fire — Most triggers imported from those tools were silently dead on arrival — they loaded, looked fine in the list, and never fired. Several separate faults in how their patterns were read have been fixed, GINA trigger packages (.gtp) now import at all, and a GINA timer arrives as a real countdown instead of muting the trigger for its duration.

Attendance was measured against every raid tick the guild has ever held — including the years before you were in it.

• 📊 Measured against raids you could actually have attended — Your percentage now counts only the ticks since you joined, for every window, which is what OpenDKP has always shown. Everyone who joined after the guild’s early days was being under-reported, and the newer you were the worse it looked — exactly backwards for a number used to spot who needs a nudge. Long-standing members barely move; genuinely low attendance stays low. Spotted by Hitya, who pointed out that Gonner has never missed a tick while the page showed him at 64%.

Everything the beta testers have been running for the last few weeks, now on the stable channel for the whole guild — three raid-floor corrections and a sign-in that no longer fails in silence.

• 🛡 Harmshield counts on Rampage — The rampage warning only ever recognised Divine Aura. A monk who popped Harmshield still showed as a normal target, and the raid kept spending heals on someone who could not be hurt — that is exactly how Syko’s went unnoticed. Harmshield now lights the gold bar alongside DA. Defensive and Weapon Shield deliberately stay off it: they reduce damage, they do not make you immune.
• 💚 Your healers show their real class — The Command Center listed Brynnja and Denniker as Cleric and Druid at the same time, flickering between the two. Anyone in the CH chain was being called a Cleric, but druids take chain slots too and shamans turn up as well. Being in the chain now proves you are chain healing and nothing more — the class shown is the real one.
• 🏷 A tag lasts the whole fight — Marking a mob with /tag used to expire after two minutes. On Thall Va Xakra the tag six people had caught aged out at 32% boss health, halfway through the pull, taking the only thing that told the two spawns apart with it. Tags now hold for ten minutes. Appending with +tag also records both taggers rather than only the last one.

Some deaths are the strat. The raid review kept filing them under "what to work on" — and it was landing on the third line of the thread besides.

• 💀 Mark a death as on purpose — Officers can mark a character as dying deliberately on a specific boss. Fawx and Dant make a corpse on Kaas Thox Xi Ans Dyek every single week, so it is set once from that fight’s parse page and holds every week after — no re-marking. Those two are already set. The death is never hidden: it still counts in the night’s total and still shows in the deaths list, it just stops being listed as a mistake, and the header says how many were on purpose.
• 📓 The review sits at the top of the thread — The night’s thread now holds its first two spots the moment it opens, and the review moves into one of them instead of posting under whatever landed first. The second spot is there for nights when the review runs long, and is cleaned up when it is not needed.

Your computer's clock stamps every line the parser reads, so an install running a minute slow reported a death a minute late — far enough from everyone else's copy of the same death that it counted as a second one.

• ⏱ The clock correction gets spent — The bot has been measuring how far off each install's clock is on its regular heartbeat. It now uses that measurement, correcting death times as the upload lands rather than trusting the stamp. Nothing to install and nothing to configure. If your clock is a minute out it is still worth a Windows date & time → "Sync now" — but the parse is right either way now. The original timestamp is kept alongside the corrected one.

Several pages were quietly working from the first 1,000 records and no further — inventories were cut off, and the era timeline could not see a new main had started raiding.

• 🔢 The whole list, everywhere — Account inventory, the Quartermaster boards and the character era timeline now read every record instead of the first 1,000. Nothing about how you use them changes — the numbers are just right now.

Everything the beta testers have been running for the last week goes out to everyone: Zeal nameplate tags feed the Extended Target overlay, same-name adds show as separate rows, and the pet tracker stops showing a dead pet's buffs.

• 🏷 Tag a mob, see it everywhere — Target an add and use Zeal's /tag — the label and its arrow show up on the Extended Target overlay for everyone in the tag channel. The tag carries the mob's true identity, which is the one thing the game never tells us otherwise, so it is the most reliable way to tell two identical adds apart. Works over the chat channel, group say or raid say.
• 👥 Two mobs with one name show as two mobs — When two same-name adds are tanked apart, they show as separate rows labeled with who is tanking each — and your slows and tashes are credited to the right one. Built for Thall Va Xakra's twin adds.
• 📡 One Mimic covers the raid — A single raider running Mimic reports every raid member's position and every tank the mobs are hitting, so the split works even when the tanks themselves are not running it.
• 🩺 The dashboard says whether tags will work — A readiness card reads your Zeal settings and names the exact fix when something is switched on that would quietly stop tags reaching us — including the two that draw the arrow in game while sending nothing at all.

Your name and the Sign out button now sit on the same line as the WolfPack.quest logo, instead of on a row of their own.

• 🧭 Two tidy rows — Logo and your account controls share the top line; the download buttons, search and timezone picker sit on the line below. On a phone the account controls wrap under themselves rather than shoving the logo around.

When two same-name adds are tanked apart, the Extended Target overlay now splits them into separate rows — each labeled with who is tanking it — and shows which one your slows and tashes actually landed on. Built for Thall Va Xakra's twin adds.

• 👥 The split — The game gives us no mob identity at all — two same-name mobs are pixel-identical in every data stream (we've asked the Zeal team for the one field that would fix this properly; no traction yet). The workaround: a tanked mob stands on its tank, and we DO know where our own people are. Tanks held apart mean separate mobs, and each row is labeled "@ <tank>" so callouts finally have a handle.
• 🎯 Debuffs land on the right row — A slow or tash is credited to the add its caster or tank was actually on. When we genuinely can't tell — both adds at identical health, nobody placeable — the debuff shows dimmed with a ? on both rows rather than pretending to know.
• 📡 One Mimic covers the raid — A single raider running Mimic with Zeal now reports every raid member's position and every tank the mobs are hitting — so the feature works even when none of the tanks run Mimic themselves.

The Tunare counter showed 0 and sat in the "waiting on data" pile, while 83 invocations were recorded and the most recent was July 31st.

• 🌿 The count is back — Naggato's family has 83 Tunare invocations on record. The card had been quietly reporting none of them.

The item pages had the NO DROP tag backwards — it appeared on items you CAN trade, and was missing from the ones you cannot. Worn and combat effects were never shown at all.

• 🏷️ NO DROP is right now — The mirror stores this flag inverted, and three places on the site read it as-is: the item page, the inventory tile border, and the item hover card. So a tradeable item was tagged NO DROP and a genuinely untradeable one showed nothing. If you ever checked the site before passing loot to someone, it told you the opposite of the truth. All three now go through one shared check.
• ✨ Worn and combat effects — Item pages only ever showed CLICK effects, so gear whose whole point is a worn or proc effect looked like it had none — the Ancient Burrower Flesh Cap carries Truesight in both and showed neither. 1,560 items gain an effect line, each linking to the spell.
• 📊 The full stat block — STR/STA/AGI/DEX/WIS/INT/CHA are now listed alongside AC, HP and mana instead of being dropped.
• 📖 LORE ITEM appears again — The tag was reading a column that is empty for every single item, so it could never show. It now uses the marker the game itself uses — 11,148 items are lore and none of them said so.

Mimic used to open eleven windows whether you used them or not — around a gigabyte of them. Now it only opens the overlays you actually run, and closes them again when EverQuest is not up. Setup got faster too: the Settings page that used to hang for twenty seconds opens straight away.

• 💾 Only the overlays you use — Every overlay is its own window, and every window costs memory whether it is on screen or not. Mimic now opens one only when you have it switched on, and hands the memory back the moment you switch it off. With EverQuest closed it keeps almost nothing running.
• 🙈 Hide-all no longer looks like off — The hide-overlays hotkey used to flip every overlay to OFF, so afterwards you could not tell what you had turned off yourself from what the hotkey was holding. The Overlays page now shows those as HIDDEN, with a note saying how many are coming back. They also reopen with fresh data instead of whatever was frozen on screen before.
• ⚡ Settings opens immediately — Hunting for your EverQuest folder could stall Mimic for twenty seconds if you had a network or backup drive attached — it was waiting on a drive that was asleep. Mimic now skips drives that are not local, remembers folders that turned out to be dead ends, and never re-reads a log file it has already identified.
• 🛡️ One-click Windows fixes — Buttons on the dashboard and in Settings to add Windows Defender exceptions for your EverQuest and Mimic folders, install or update Zeal, and fix a drifting Windows clock. Each asks for permission once and tells you exactly what it did.
• 📊 An honest resource readout — The Resource use window names every process — DPS HUD, Charm tracker, Dashboard — instead of ten identical rows, and explains why its memory figure differs from Task Manager rather than pretending to match. There is a checkbox if you want it to match exactly.

A third of our enabled triggers cannot match a log line, and never could — including the Feeblemind and Shadow Poison callouts added this week. They were all switched on, which is exactly why nobody noticed.

• 🔇 What went wrong — A trigger pattern is matched against the whole log line, and every line starts with its timestamp. So a pattern beginning with ^ — meaning "the message starts with this" — was actually asking the TIMESTAMP to start with it. 37 of our 109 live triggers are written that way: every slow-landed callout, Enrage, Cripple, Malo, Death Touch RIP, and the new Vex Thal ones.
• 🛡️ It cannot happen again — The officer trigger form now corrects a leading ^ when you save, and explains why. Every existing trigger with the problem carries a warning on its row telling you that re-saving fixes it.
• ⏳ Not switched on yet — on purpose — Un-deadening 37 callouts at once, the day before a Vex Thal night, could be a wall of voice lines mid-fight. Six different slow-landed callouts firing on every single pull is the obvious risk. The fix is staged so the boss mechanics can go first and the noisy family can wait for a verdict.

A Shadow Knight feigning read as a Shadow Knight dying, and 44% of every death we have stored came from the only two classes that can feign. Fixing that pulled a thread through the death list, the trash tally, the cure queue and the raid review.

• 💀 Feign death is no longer a death — Feign Death and Death Peace print "Soandso dies." — and we counted every one. One Shadow Knight shows 63 deaths in a single fight. Between them, Shadow Knights and Necromancers account for 44% of every death row we hold, which is the size of the suspect pile rather than a count of fakes — those classes do really die too. New parses are clean.
• 💊 Shadow Poison now reaches the cure queue — It has been landing on us 324 times a week and never once showed up as curable, because the spell was stored without an id. It carries 5 poison counters, so one weak cure will not strip it. A callout now names who to cure, and 28,000 other landings got their ids back at the same time.
• 🧟 Trash cleared counts only the raid — Last review said 967 mobs and 9h22m of combat for a 1h48m raid — it was counting everything anyone killed that day, including lunchtime XP groups. Now gated to actual raid hours, so expect a much smaller and much truer number.
• 🗓️ Every fight knows its raid night — 193 raid nights reconstructed from our own history and 1,022 encounters linked to them. "Which raid was this?" used to be a guess based on timestamps; now it is a fact.
• 📣 New callouts — Feeblemind on the Overfiend with a 30-second countdown and an OUT call at 26 seconds. Shadow Poison naming who needs the cure. Wave of Death for the Ssra serpents — the one that stuns and feigns half the raid and never appeared in a log we read.

Every beta build from yesterday crashed the log agent at startup. If you updated Tuesday and Mimic looked fine but nothing was uploading, this is why. Stable was never affected.

• 🚑 The agent starts again — A rename in the threat-snapshot code left one stale reference behind, in a line that runs the moment the agent begins watching your logs. It printed "ready" and then quit. Six beta builds shipped that way in a day. Update to 3.5.15 and it is gone.
• 🧪 Beta now has the same tests main does — This is the embarrassing part: the beta branch had no automated checks at all. Two of them claimed to cover it and neither ever ran once. Beta is where every Mimic and agent change lands, so it was the branch that needed them most. They run now — and caught this on the first try.
• 🏃 A test that just starts the agent — Nothing we ran had ever actually launched it. The suites all loaded the code and called pieces of it, which cannot notice that the program does not run. Now something starts it for real every time, and there is a second test that breaks it on purpose to prove the first one would notice.

People kept turning up to raid on old builds without realising it. Mimic was downloading updates fine — it was just waiting for you to quit, and nobody quits Mimic.

• 🔄 Updates install when you close EverQuest — The safest possible moment: you are provably not raiding. If you relaunch within 15 seconds it defers and catches you next time. Meanwhile it nags once an hour via a Windows notification that cannot steal focus from the game — and it asks nothing of you, because there is nothing to do.
• 📊 Resource use, measured not promised — Settings now shows live CPU and memory for every Mimic process on YOUR machine with YOUR overlays. Close EQ and watch it settle. If it does not settle on your box, that is a real finding and we want to hear it.
• 😴 Quieter when you are not playing — Mimic checked whether EverQuest was running every 10 seconds forever — about 8,600 process spawns a day on an idle desktop. Now 45 seconds once the game has been closed a minute: 76% fewer. Everything else already idled properly.
• 🐌 Sha's Advantage reads as a slow — Beastlord slow now shows BST SLOW 50% on the target instead of sitting in the debuff list unrecognised. Tigir's Insects had the same gap and never raised the badge at all.

The big one. The raid review now writes itself while you raid, every boss has a guide page built from our own kills, and the CH Chain grades your timing DDR-style — that last one finally graduating from beta to everybody.

• 📡 Live Raid Night Review — A card appears in the night's thread on the first pull and grows all raid — kills as they land, what's in progress, how long since the last one, and whether we're ahead of a typical night. At 00:45 it becomes the finished writeup: standouts measured against our own history, loot, attendance including who left early, and deaths by fight.
• 🕺 CH Chain DDR — now for everyone — Call your number within a quarter second of the beat and PERFECT flashes on your bar; three in a row is MARVELOUS. Half a second GREAT, inside a second GOOD. Plus the 10-second cast bar with a red ✕ when someone gets interrupted. Beta-tested, now stable.
• 📖 The Raid Guide — Every boss we have parses for — 99 of them — has a page built from our own kills: typical duration, raid size, what has killed us there, and which callouts fire on that fight. Nobody wrote a word of it.
• 🧟 Trash counts + fight timelines — Non-boss kills are tallied now, and each fight carries the timeline view from the parse pages. Heads up: trash has never been stored before, so those totals start from tonight.
• 🛡️ Officer console + smart backfill — One screen that says whether anything is wrong, with twelve runbooks next to it. And when someone's upload claims more damage than the mob actually has, /backfillscan names the two or three raiders whose logs would settle it.
• ⚔ Swarm mob counter — The Melody overlay shows how many mobs your last song pulse hit, out of Quarm's 12-target cap — green at a perfect swarm.

The Raid Night Review no longer waits for the morning after — the card appears on the night's first pull and grows all raid, then becomes the final writeup at 00:45. It also counts trash now, and shows a timeline of each fight.

• 📡 Live during the raid — One card in the night's thread, updated as kills land (edits, so it never pings you). Shows what is in progress, how long since the last kill, and whether the night is running ahead of or behind a typical raid.
• 🧟 Trash counts too — Non-boss kills are now tallied — how many, how much damage, and where. Heads up: nothing outside our tracked boss list has ever been stored, so these totals start from the first raid this ships for; there is no history to backfill.
• 📈 Fight timelines — The per-fight timeline from the parse pages now appears on the review — deaths, slows, mob heals and disc usage laid out along each kill, with a compact version in Discord that links to the full one.
• 🔎 Bad-parse detection — When one person's upload claims more damage than the mob actually has, officers can run /backfillscan — it finds the fights whose numbers are wrong and names the two or three raiders whose logs would settle it (people who were in melee all fight and did not die).

Four things built overnight: the morning-after raid writeup now posts itself, every boss we fight got a guide page built from our own kills, officers got one screen that says what is wrong, and mob warnings stopped lying about which mob you are looking at.

• 📓 Raid Night Review — The night after a raid, a writeup lands in that night's thread automatically — kills with times, standout parses measured against our own history, loot and DKP, attendance including who left early, and deaths by fight. Officers can also run /raidreview for any date; re-running edits the post instead of spamming a second one.
• 📖 The Raid Guide — Every boss we have parses for — 99 of them — now has a page built from our own kills: how long it usually takes, how big a raid we bring, what has killed us there, and which callouts actually fire on that fight. No one had to write a word of it.
• 🛡️ Officer console — One screen showing whether anything is wrong right now — with the answer written down next to it. Twelve runbooks for the things that actually go wrong, and the console knows it is 3am on a Tuesday so it does not cry wolf.
• 🎯 Mob warnings tell the truth — Mob Info was picking one database row at random for same-named mobs, which is how a boss could show up as a level-1 dummy that is "immune to everything". It now merges the real variants and never warns you off a mob using a placeholder's stats.

The What's-next queue got numbers, a vote button, and a way to hand us exactly the thing an item is stuck on. Open to read without signing in; sign in with Discord to vote or submit.

• ▲ Vote it up — Every queue item has a vote button — tell us what you want built next and sort the whole queue by votes. One vote per member per item, take it back any time.
• 🙏 Unblock us — Items stuck on something a member can supply — a verbatim log line, a raid-night observation — say exactly what they need, with a box right on the card. Submissions go straight to the officers' feedback thread.
• #️⃣ Numbers on everything — Each item carries its tracking number, so "I vote #193" means the same thing on the site, in Discord, and in the dev docs.

New (or just curious)? Hit ✨ Tour in the site header or on the Mimic dashboard for a guided clickthrough — one stop per page, spotlighting your own real data: your characters, your parses, your standing. Re-run it any time.

• 🌐 Website walkthrough — Ten stops from Me to the Roadmap — each page spotlit with a plain-language card about what it does for you. Wander off mid-tour and a quiet Resume button waits in the corner; nothing is mocked, every number is yours.
• 🐺 Mimic dashboard tour (beta) — Six stops across the dashboard tabs — the Me card, overlays, buffs, fights, triggers, and the privacy controls — on your own live parser data. ✨ Tour button in the nav, offered once automatically on first load.
• 🏆 Accomplishment-first — The tour leads with what you've done: your characters, The Scrap standing, the boards your name climbs. (PvP stays out of the way unless you ask to see it.)

Thursday's Blood of Ssraeshza parse credited huge pet damage to raiders who were mezzing, dead, or in another zone — charm-cycled same-named mobs were spraying damage across everyone who ever charmed that name. Fixed end to end, and the bad parses are repaired.

• ⚖️ Fair charm credit — A charm pet's damage now goes to the raiders actively charming that mob name in that fight — split equally when several run same-named pets at once — never to the whole night's history of past charmers. (Same-named mobs still can't be told apart individually; that needs a Zeal update we've drafted the request for.)
• 🐾 Charmed on parse cards — Parse cards list each charmed mob's damage and who it split across, so pet credit is visible instead of hidden inside someone's total.
• 🖥️ Honest DPS meter (beta) — The live meter labels a charm pet with its proven current charmer — or just "(charmed)" when it can't prove one — instead of pinning every same-named pet on one person.

Raider requests, all in this beta round: the CH Chain overlay shows each cleric's 10-second cast as it happens — with a red ✕ if they get interrupted — and grades your chain timing DDR-style. Swarm bards get a mob counter on the Melody overlay. Plus an opt-in audio alert the moment you start taking hits.

• ⚔ Swarm mob counter — The Melody overlay now shows how many mobs your last song pulse actually hit, right next to the song name — like ⚔ 11/12. Songs cap at 12 targets on Quarm (extras warp onto you instead), so the chip turns green at a perfect 12-mob swarm. Damaging songs show the pulse's damage too, with per-mob detail on hover.
• ⏳ CH cast bar — When a chain number is called, that cleric's bar starts a 10-second cast countdown so everyone can see the heal in flight. If the cast gets interrupted, a red ✕ appears on the bar. (No ✕ doesn't always mean safe — interrupt messages only carry so far in-game.)
• 🕺 DDR timing grades — Call your number within a quarter second of the beat and PERFECT flashes on your bar — three in a row earns MARVELOUS. Half a second is GREAT, inside a second is GOOD. Purely visual fun on the overlay (nothing spoken), with a 🎯 button to turn it off.
• 🔔 Damage-taken alert — An optional audio ping the moment something starts hitting you — for when you're watching chat, not your health bar. Off by default; flip it from the Mimic tray menu or its hotkey (Ctrl+Shift+D, rebindable in the dashboard).

The per-night Discord thread now knows your schedule: raid nights land in #raid-chat, scheduled off-night events get their own thread in #event-chat with roll loot instead of DKP — driven by the server's Discord events, no setup required.

• 🗓️ Event-driven windows — The thread opens for posting 30 minutes before an event's scheduled start and closes 15 minutes after its end. Your Discord events (the same ones /announce creates) drive it.
• 🎲 Off-night roll loot — Event threads show each dropped item with its assigned roll range and the winner — the /random flow the guild already uses — instead of DKP bidding posts.
• 🔇 Less trash spam — Named bosses always post to the thread; one-second trash skirmishes no longer flood it.

Everything Thursday's raid surfaced, fixed the same night: cured raiders finally leave the debuff queue, each raid night gets its own Discord thread with the parses and loot in it, charm pets show up on parses, and the callouts that were firing late or never now fire on time.

• 🧪 Cures count now — When a cleric running Mimic cures someone, the whole raid's Buff Queue knows — even if the cured player doesn't run Mimic. Cures spend their real counter values, so one Remove Greater Curse clears a 9-counter curse but only dents a 72-counter Gravel Rain, which now shows what's left instead of lying.
• 🧵 Raid-night threads — Each raid night gets its own Discord thread, named the way /raidnight names things. The auto-parse cards and the night's loot posts land there — and every loot post links straight to the OpenDKP auctions page.
• 🐾 Charm pets on parses — Charmed pets' damage now reaches the uploaded parse and credits the charmer — it was rendering on the local meter and then being thrown away on upload. Distinct pets stay distinct instead of collapsing into one "so-and-so's pet".
• 📣 Callouts on time — Vyzh`dra's melee dance now actually calls MELEE OUT / MELEE IN off the AE that really lands (Dragon Roar). The Emperor's "Paladin DA NOW" fires at 2:00 on the true 2:10 cycle. And the phantom "Eye of so-and-so" rows are gone from the DPS meter.

PQDI has been down a lot lately, so we started building our own copy of it here — powered by the same game data we already sync every week. Items, mobs and spells are live now.

• 🗡️ Item pages — Full stat block (slot, class/race, resists, damage/delay, clicky, weight and value) plus the two things you actually open a database for: everything that drops it, with drop chance and zone, and every merchant zone that sells it.
• 🐉 Mob pages — Level, HP, AC, resists, damage range and special abilities (enrage, rampage, summon, unslowable, immunities), the full loot table, the spells it can cast — and where it spawns, with zone, coordinates, respawn timer and placeholder chance. There is also a link straight to our own kill history for that mob.
• ✨ Spell pages — Effects, resist type, target, duration, cast and recast times, plus the exact log messages a spell writes — handy when you are building a trigger.
• 🔗 A "(WP)" link next to every PQDI link — Anywhere the site used to send you off to pqdi.cc — search results, loot lists, your inventory and gear, the parse pages, faction standings — there is now a small (WP) link beside it that opens our copy instead. The PQDI link stays put, so nothing you are used to disappears.
• 🤝 Faction pages — Every faction now has its own page: what your starting standing is by race, class and deity, which mobs con on it, and — the useful part — which quest turn-ins raise or lower it, with the exact numbers. Reachable from any mob page and from your own faction standings.
• 📜 Quest turn-ins — Item pages now answer "what is this for?" — what you hand it to and what you get back, and in reverse, which turn-in hands it out. Mob pages list every turn-in that NPC accepts. Read straight from the server's own quest scripts, so it covers far more than a hand-maintained list ever would.
• 🔎 Searchable, and in the nav — New 📚 Database tab with its own search — type an item, mob or spell name and go straight to it. The header search box (⌘K) now finds mobs too, and its item/spell results open our pages instead of bouncing you to pqdi.cc.

Three things the raid reported this week, all fixed: shaman slows finally show up on the target, the DPS meter stops clinging to a mob you killed ages ago, and charm breaks announce again.

• 🐌 Shaman slows show on the target — Turgur's, Togor's, Tagar's, Tigir's, Drowsy, Walking Sleep — the whole shaman line now appears on Target Info and the slow badge, for everyone, not just the shaman who cast it. Enchanter slows were showing all along because they announce themselves plainly ("<mob> slows down"), while every shaman slow lands as a bare "<mob> yawns" — a line eleven different spells share. That ambiguity was getting the entire family discarded before it ever reached the overlay.

Two raider-requested wins graduate to stable: pull up any mob's PQDI page straight from the Target Info overlay, and swap a song or spell across every one of your saved spell sets in a single step.

• 🔗 PQDI link on Target Info — The Target Info overlay now carries a PQDI link. Tap it and that mob's full PQDI page — drops, spawn details, resists — opens in your browser, so you can check what it drops or how it resists without alt-tabbing out to search for it mid-fight.
• 🎵 Spell sets: swap once, done everywhere — UI Studio can now replace a song or spell across all of your saved spell sets at once. Got an upgrade that belongs in every set? Pick the old spell (shown by name and ID), pick the new one, and apply — the change lands in every named set, with a backup written first. No more opening and editing each set by hand.

Twelve items, one day, all from the field-report queue: everything the Wednesday raid surfaced plus the most-requested overlay upgrades — targeting info that keeps up with the fight, slow timers, AoE dance callouts, and a pile of quality-of-life fixes.

• 🎯 Extended Target V2 — Every mob row can now show who the mob is beating on (→ Hawkner), the raid's observed DPS into it, and a time-to-live estimate that only appears when the HP trend is real — never a garbage guess. Same-name mobs get honest bookkeeping under the hood (deaths + HP continuity), so a fresh "a temple guard" no longer inherits the last one's debuffs.
• 🐌 Slow status on the target — Target Info shows an amber badge when your target is slowed — spell, %, caster when known, and a countdown. Slows don't stack, so it always shows the STRONGEST active slow (a weaker cast can't hide a better one), with "Slowed" / "Slow dropped — reslow" callouts for your current target. Magnitudes are pulled from the server data, not guessed.
• 🏃 AoE dance callouts — First target: Vyzh`dra the Cursed's Caustic Mist. When the AE fires you hear "DPS IN" and a countdown arms to the next one, warning "DPS OUT" just before it — same machinery as the Emperor tank-buster timer, and it re-syncs on every observed AE.
• ⚡ Target HP that keeps up — Your own target's HP now reads straight from the Zeal gauge — about half a second from game to overlay, down from several seconds when it detoured through the server aggregate.
• 📋 One-click "Post to /rs" — A copy button on the DPS meter builds the parse line the guild recognizes (top 10 + total) — click, paste in /rs, done. The bot can re-ingest the pasted line, so posted parses still count.
• 🧭 Command Center & Buff queue QoL — Cure/curse alert lines get a per-line ✕ and a clear-all; DI availability compacts into chips beside HEALER MANA; and dismissing a buff-queue item now removes just that row instead of collapsing the whole overlay mid-raid.

The ask was simple: "let us review the raid at 9am, not 11:30pm." A new /raid/review page gives you exactly that — open it the morning after and one page shows what happened last night, no Discord scrolling.

• One night, one page — From the live Raid view (or /raid/review) pick a night and see it laid out in the order it happened: the kills timeline (boss, time, duration, damage, with wipe/engaged markers), who died and on which boss, which slows landed and when, the callouts that fired (Death Touch included), and that night's loot with winners and DKP. Every section only shows up when there's something to show, so an empty night stays tidy instead of erroring.
• The same numbers as the parse page — Death counts use the exact cross-parser dedup the parse pages already use — no new, disagreeing count — and foreign (pugging-another-guild) raids are hidden the same way /parses hides them. It reads only; nothing here changes any record.

A small stable follow-up to Harmonic Howl: get a new machine logging and Zeal-ready in one click, and replay a past fight through your triggers to test them without waiting for the boss.

• 🔧 “Set up EQ for me” now on the Settings page — The one-click configurator that turns on logging (eqclient.ini) and Zeal export/verbose (zeal.ini) across every EQ folder is now on the Mimic Settings page too, not just the dashboard — close EQ, click once, done. Perfect for getting a brand-new raider ready in seconds.
• ⏪ Replay a fight through your triggers — A new Replay card (Triggers tab) walks any slice of your logs back through the real trigger engine — you hear the actual callouts, marked as a replay, with nothing uploaded and cooldowns left alone. It won’t run during a live fight. Every parse page also gets a “Replay this fight locally” link that pre-fills the time window. Great for proving a trigger works before it matters.

A new member-visible /quartermaster page answers the two logistics questions that always turn into a /gu spam: "does anyone have X?" and "how far along is everyone on the key quests?" — at a glance, for the whole guild. Plus: replay a past fight through your own trigger callouts to hear how they would have sounded.

• Utility-kit coverage — One board shows who owns the raid movers — Puppet Strings, a Cleric disease-cure shield, resist-buff rings, a Divine Aura panic button, mana batteries, JBoots, lev cloaks and more — with an owner count, the owners, and a plain-English gap line when a slot is thin ("No Cleric owns Shield of the Immaculate"). It reads your worn + bag gear only; the bank is stripped before upload, so a blank means "not seen", not "nobody has it".
• Common-quest checklist — The other board tracks the guild's recurring chains (keys, VT shards, Coldain shawl, giant turn-ins, and a seeded Emperor Ssraeshza key) as a per-character checklist off the officer quest catalog — your own characters up top, and for officers a "who's missing what" rollup. Steps we can't see (already turned in, or a hail/flag) show as — rather than a false red. Opted-out characters never appear.
• ⏪ Replay a fight through your triggers (Mimic) — Every parse page now has a "⏪ Replay this fight locally" link, and Mimic's Triggers tab has a matching ⏪ Replay card. Point it at one of your logs and a time window (the parse link prefills the fight for you) and Mimic walks those lines back through your real trigger engine — pattern, cooldown, suppression and all — and speaks the actual callouts, at real-time pace or a quick fast audit. It is a rehearsal end to end: every fire is tagged ⏪, nothing uploads or relays, and your live cooldowns are never touched, so it is safe to run any time except mid-fight (it politely refuses then). Perfect for testing that a new TTS callout sounds right before raid night. Needs the Mimic agent 3.4.1 update; the whole thing runs on your machine, against your logs.

The biggest release we've ever cut, now stable for everyone as a normal auto-update. The name says it: the HOWL is Mimic learning to speak — callouts that prove they played, the CH chain calling your GO, loot announced with a bid clock — and the HARMONY is the pack acting as one: reporter elections, clean handoffs when someone camps, and officer kill switches keeping it all in tune. Everything below in the 1.9.6 beta entry is what's inside; if you were on beta, you've been living it all week.

• Why "2.0" — One number for one idea: this line crossed from "overlays that show you things" to a platform that talks, listens, and protects itself. Full feature detail is in the beta entry just below — wins, fixes, and all.
• If you're on stable — Just accept the update. Everything arrives configured with sane defaults; anything spoken has an obvious toggle right where you'd look for it.

This beta round makes the callouts you rely on impossible to miss — and impossible to silently lose — plus one thing clerics asked for: the CH chain says your number out loud when it’s your turn. And you can now place your loot bids right from Mimic. The dashboard also got a facelift: your character is front and center, and officers get a dedicated quick menu. Newest for raid night: a self-running Emperor tank-buster clock, and MEZ / SLOW badges on your Extended Target.

• ⏱ The Emperor tank-buster clock runs itself — For the Emperor Ssraeshza fight, Mimic now keeps the tank-buster clock for you straight off your combat log — no setup, and it works for every raider whether or not they run Zeal. When Blood of Ssraeshza dies it starts a 2:00 countdown to the Emperor’s spawn and calls “Paladin DA NOW” ten seconds out, so the DA lands right on the spawn buster. When a buster actually hits — its telltale ~4000 non-melee hit — it calls “TANK BUSTER” and re-arms a 60-second countdown to the next one (a repeat hit just resets the same bar, it never stacks a second one). And the instant the Emperor dies the countdown clears itself, so there’s no phantom “next buster” ticking on a corpse. The re-arm and clear-on-death are built to be reused, so more boss timers can plug into it over time.
• 🟣 MEZ / 🟠 SLOW badges on the Extended Target — The Extended Target overlay now shows a bright pill right next to a mob’s name when it’s mesmerized (purple MEZ) or slowed (amber SLOW) — read straight from the debuffs already on that mob, so at a glance you can see which adds are locked down and which still need a slow. If a mob is both, you see both, and a badge disappears the moment its debuff falls off.
• 🐺 Your character, front and center — The Mimic dashboard opens on a new 🐺 Me card instead of the engine-status wall. It shows the character you’re playing and where they are, a quick line of your buffs, the other characters Mimic is watching, your last few tells (which never leave your PC), and your last few fights with a jump to the parse — plus one big button to your full wolfpack.quest/me page. The sync/plumbing details (files being read, upload queue, session counts) are still there, just tucked into a collapsed “⚙ Engine” section right below.
• 🛡 An officer quick menu — Officers get a dedicated 🛡 Admin tab in the dashboard that gathers the officer tools that used to be scattered around — DKP ticks, loot capture, “Post for bidding” — into one place for quick changes during a raid, with fast links to the wolfpack.quest admin pages (overlay kill switches, triggers, encounters). Only officers see the tab or anything in it.
• 💰 Place your loot bids from Mimic (BETA) — There’s a new 💰 Loot bidding card on the dashboard. Log into your OpenDKP account once (it stays on your PC, never uploaded) and every open auction shows up — what an officer just called in chat and the real OpenDKP auctions both — with the item’s last winner and runner-up right there. Type a bid and send it (sealed, same as always), or hit “+1” to pre-fill last time’s runner-up plus one and bid that. Set your main and alts once, then pick who you’re bidding as. When you’re logged in it also shows your own recent wins and a wishlist built from what you’ve bid on before. Until you log in, bidding stays locked — it’s BETA, so tell us what’s rough.
• 💰 Loot bidding v2 — a misses table, your DKP, and no more dead links — The Loot bidding card grew up. It now shows a full-width Recent misses table — every item you bid on and lost — with who bid, your last bid, that item’s most-recent winning and second-place bids, an editable “planned next bid” you can jot down (saved on your PC), and your current DKP right there. Your wishlist now hides anything you’ve already won (preregs still show with a ★), item names link to the right OpenDKP page instead of dead-ending on a 404, and the first time you log in your family — main plus raid alts — fills in for you automatically. A new expansion filter narrows every list to Classic / Kunark / Velious / Luclin. The DKP figure is pooled across your linked characters (that’s the balance you actually bid against) and read from our OpenDKP mirror, so treat it as “as of the last sync,” not to-the-second. Still BETA — tell us if a number looks off.
• 💰 Loot posts get called out — with a bid clock — When an officer drops a loot list in guild or raid chat, Mimic now says it out loud — “Loot posted, 3 items, bids open 2 minutes” — and starts a gold countdown chip on your trigger overlay that ticks down the auction, exactly like a Death Touch timer (it even warns you at 15 seconds). It reads the time from the bid call, or falls back to a default you can set. Re-posting the same items just resets the clock instead of stacking a duplicate, every separate drop gets its own chip, and you can dismiss any chip with its ✕. On by default; one toggle in the dashboard’s Triggers tab silences it.
• The trigger overlay stops cutting off its own buttons — The trigger/timer window now grows on its own to fit whatever’s on it — stacked timers, pinned callouts, the new loot chips — so the buttons along the bottom never get clipped again. It shrinks back down when things clear, and grows the right direction whether you have it set to grow up or grow down.
• ⛑ The CH chain calls your “04 GO” — When the chain reaches your slot, Mimic speaks your number — “04 GO” — out loud, so you can react without staring at the overlay counting rows. It’s a 📣 button right on the CH chain overlay: on by default, one click to silence. It only speaks for the character you’re actually playing, and only once per rotation pass.
• A “Rehearse” button that really rehearses — The trigger Test button used to just play the alert — it never checked whether your pattern actually matches anything, so a broken trigger looked fine until raid night. Now it feeds a real matching line through the whole engine (pattern, cooldown, suppression) and speaks the real callout, so a trigger that won’t fire tells you BEFORE it matters.
• Callouts can’t silently die — A new “why didn’t my trigger fire?” panel on the dashboard shows exactly how far each callout got — matched, cooled down, suppressed by your charm pet, or spoken — so a trigger that goes quiet is no longer a mystery. And a relayed callout that arrives late after a network backlog is dropped instead of shouted minutes after the moment passed.
• 📌 Pin the life-or-death calls — Officers can flag a trigger “sticky” — Death Touch target, tank swap, whatever can’t be missed — and it stays pinned on screen until you click it away, instead of fading after a few seconds.
• 🐾 Pet buffs finally show on the Pet tracker — Buffs you cast on your summoned pet — Girdle of Karana, a Symbol, Strength, and other single-target buffs — now appear on the Pet tracker with their countdown, even when you weren’t targeting the pet at the moment you cast (buffing yourself, keeping the mob targeted, whatever). Before, those buffs quietly never showed unless the pet happened to be your live target the instant the spell landed. Buffs someone ELSE lands on your pet still fill in from a /pet report.
• 📍 The buff queue hints who’s out of range — The buff-queue overlay now dims a same-zone raider who’s run more than a couple hundred units away from you and marks them with a 📍, so you don’t waste a cast on someone across the zone. It’s only ever a hint — positions update at the same heartbeat as everyone’s buffs, and anyone we can’t place is shown normally, never hidden.
• Smoother reporter handoff on camp-out — When a raider camps out, the raid’s data reporting now hands off to someone still online a few seconds early, so buff and roster tracking never blinks during the swap. (Carried over from the last beta build.)
• 👁 A smarter /who overlay — The in-game /who overlay now lines everyone up in clean columns — class in one column, level in its own, instead of drifting ragged after the guild tag — and drops a 🐺 next to any raider who’s running Mimic right now. Wolf Pack members show their main in parentheses after the character name (a couple of folks are on a privacy exception and never do), and when a guildmate is /anon we fill in the level we know from our own history, shown dimmed so you can tell it didn’t come from the game.
• 🕒 A richer fight timeline — The per-fight timeline (on each parse) now marks more of what actually happened during a boss fight: when a slow landed on the mob — and the warning moment it fell off — when the mob healed itself back up, and when someone dropped into a defensive discipline. Each gets its own colored tick with a small legend, so a wipe post-mortem reads the “slow fell off here, then it healed” story at a glance.
• 🎯 Extended Target sticks to your zone — The Extended Target overlay can now hide targets coming from raiders in a different zone, so a splinter group off in another zone stops cluttering your target list. It’s on by default, as a “Same-zone targets only” checkbox in the dashboard’s Overlays tab — turn it off any time to see every online raider’s target again. Anyone we can’t place (zone unknown) is always shown, never hidden.
• 🎲 Roll nights — and who actually looted — Off-night loot rolls now have a home. Mimic quietly records the “You have looted” line from your own log — the real answer to who ended up with a no-drop drop, since a re-roll or a pass means the roll winner often isn’t the looter. The new 🎲 Rolls page on wolfpack.quest lays out each roll night: every session with its range, who rolled, the winning roll, and the person who actually looted it shown right beside the winner when they differ. Plus 🎲🔥 Hot Dice — a perfect roll gets called out live, and whoever out-rolls the room on more than 20% of the night’s contested rolls takes the night’s Hot Dice crown (also on the Fun page).

Two helpers built straight off raid rule 12 and your sign-ups: a Raid Kit card that checks your magic resist and utility spells at a glance, and a comp tool that shows officers the role gaps in a raid before it pulls.

• 🎒 A Raid Kit card on your gear page — Your character’s gear page now has a Raid Kit card that checks the things raid rule 12 asks for: a 100 magic-resist floor from your worn gear, plus whether you’re covered for Enduring Breath, Levitate, self-invis and a self-port (and, for necromancers, a Summon-corpse coffin). It’s a helper, not a scold — magic resist is the only hard pass/fail, and only when we actually have your gear export. A blank utility just means we can’t see the source (bank items are stripped before upload, and class self-buffs show up once your spellbook uploads), never that you’re missing it.
• An officer readiness board — Officers get the whole-roster version at the admin Raid Kit readiness page — one row per raider with their MR and utility checklist, sorted so anyone actually below the floor floats to the top. Raiders who haven’t run a Quarmy export yet simply read “no snapshot” instead of a red X.
• 🧩 Raid comp templates + a sign-up gap check — Officers can save named raid compositions — how many tanks, healers, support, melee and casters, down to specific classes — and the sign-ups page now diffs a chosen template against everyone who signed up “Going”: “need 1 more cleric-archetype healer, 3 over on melee.” When a raid actually ran during the event window, it shows the live roster right next to the plan.

The gear page now counts every way an item can grant sight — worn, clicked, or proc.

Everything the 1.9 beta round has been running on for weeks — the healing overlays, seconds-fast restarts, officer loot + DKP tools, and quicker, more reliable triggers — is now the stable build for the whole raid, delivered as a normal auto-update.

• 🩺 Tanks see heals coming — The Tank overlay draws every heal in flight — a countdown bar to each landing, colored to its healer, plus a striped “ghost” segment showing where the tank’s HP lands once it connects. And every heal (not just Complete Heal) now gets credited on parse cards, even for tanks who aren’t running Mimic — so the 🩺 healer table shows real healed totals.
• Restarts come back in seconds — The parser now remembers what it already uploaded and skips re-reading files that haven’t changed, so restarts and updates no longer freeze your overlays for minutes. Overlays also re-find the engine on their own after any restart — no more CH chain stuck on “OVERLAY BLIND” or a blank Command Center.
• 🛟 Settings backups with one-click restore — Mimic quietly keeps the last 10 versions of your eqclient.ini and zeal.ini for every EQ folder it knows. Patch day wiped your settings or a crash ate them? Open the dashboard’s Info tab → Settings backups and restore any version with one click.
• 💰 Officer loot capture + DKP ticks — Drop lists posted in guild or raid chat (comma or pipe separated) collect on the dashboard for officers — check the items you want for a clean “Copy for /loot” paste, post a list for bidding, and run DKP ticks straight from the dashboard’s live roster. Only officers see any of it.
• ↩ Revert to stable, any time — On a beta build and want the stable release back? One click in the tray, the “you’re up to date” dialog, or next to the BETA badge downloads stable and installs on your next restart — no reinstall, and you can rejoin the beta whenever you like.
• Faster, more reliable triggers — New or edited guild triggers now reach raiders in about 2 minutes instead of 10, and {s}-style triggers finally fire on backtick boss names like Rhag`Zhezum and Aten`Ha`Ra — so Enrage and other callouts stop silently missing on Luclin mobs.

Ever tried to explain what all of this actually is? Now you just send one link.

• wolfpack.quest/platform — A single public page that maps the whole platform — the desktop overlays, the parser engine, the Discord bot, the website, the data behind it, and how updates ship — mindmap style. Click any branch to drill into the details, scroll for the story of how a respawn timer became all of this. Share it with anyone curious about what we built.

Officers can now review drop lists straight from the dashboard, and any beta tester can drop back to the stable release in one click.

• 💰 Loot capture (officers) — When someone posts a drop list in guild or raid chat — comma OR pipe separated, however your Zeal is set — it collects on the dashboard’s Info tab. Check the items you want, and "Copy for /loot" gives you the exact paste, cleaned of chatter. Only officers see it. (One-click posting to bidding and DKP ticks are landing next.)
• ↩ Revert to stable — On a beta build and need the stable release back? There’s now a one-click "Revert to stable" in the tray, on the "you’re up to date" dialog, and next to the BETA badge on the dashboard. It downloads stable and installs on your next restart — no reinstall, and you can rejoin the beta any time.

Restarting Mimic no longer freezes your overlays for minutes — the parser now remembers what it already uploaded, and overlays reconnect to the engine on their own after any restart.

• No more re-upload marathon after a restart — The parser used to re-read and re-send every character’s gear and spellbook after every restart or update — minutes of frozen overlays on big multi-character setups. It now remembers what it already sent AND skips re-reading files that haven’t changed at all, so restarts come back in seconds.
• 🛟 Settings backups with one-click restore — Mimic now quietly keeps the last 10 versions of your eqclient.ini and zeal.ini for every EQ folder it knows. Patch day wiped your settings? A crash ate them? Open the dashboard’s Info tab → Settings backups and restore any version with one click (close EQ first — it’s safe, the current file is saved before every restore).
• Overlays find the engine by themselves — If the parser engine comes back on a different connection after a restart, every overlay now re-points itself automatically — no more CH chain stuck on "OVERLAY BLIND" or a blank Command Center until you restarted Mimic.

Raid-night fixes, live from the trenches: the blue "Reload to the live engine" banner stops crying wolf, the engine stays responsive under raid load, and the healing release is now stable for everyone.

• The banner stops crying wolf — The "can’t reach the parser engine" banner now only appears after ~10 seconds of real silence, explains that the engine usually recovers on its own, and clears itself the moment it does. It also stopped hammering a busy engine with page reloads — that was making things worse.
• Engine stays responsive during raids — All the overlays share one snapshot of the engine’s state instead of each demanding their own copy several times a second — the engine spends its time parsing your fight, not photocopying itself.
• The 1.9 healing release goes stable — Inbound heals on the Tank overlay, heal attribution on parse cards, the Divine Intervention tracker, and the Command Center healer-mana board — everything from the 1.9 beta line, now on the stable channel for the whole raid.

The Tank overlay now shows heals in flight — a countdown to each landing plus a projected-HP bar — and every heal (not just Complete Heal) now gets attributed on parse cards, even for tanks who aren’t running Mimic.

• Heals incoming, on the Tank overlay — Every heal being cast on the tank draws its own countdown bar to when it lands, colored to its healer, and a striped “ghost” segment on the HP bar shows where the tank’s health lands once it connects. Tanks and healers can see the save arriving. Complete Heals are left off this view — the CH-chain overlay owns those, and their volume would swamp it.
• Every heal attributed — Parse cards used to only credit Complete Heals from a witnessed landing. Now ANY heal landing anyone in the raid sees (Remedy, Superior Healing, …) is credited to the caster at the spell’s catalog value — so a CH chain (or any heal) on a tank who isn’t running Mimic still shows real numbers.
• Extended Target: target-of-target + declutter — Each mob row now shows 🎯 who it’s meleeing (usually the tank). And player/pet rows that used to clutter the list are hidden by default (👥 to show them), with a ✕ on any row to hide it and a “show all” to bring them back.

Parse cards finally show how much each healer actually healed — and the whole 1.8.1 beta round (finishing-blow fix, "Set up for me", /who class picker) went out to every Mimic as a stable update.

• Healers, attributed — EQ never tells anyone else how big your heal was — so Mimic now marries what the healer cast (and on whom) with what the recipient felt land. The 🩺 table shows each healer’s healed total, cast count, and top recipients; healers whose targets don’t run Mimic still show their casts. The useless "→ You" self rows are gone. Coverage grows with every Mimic install.
• Mimic 1.8.1 stable — The beta round is now the stable build: one-click "Set up for me" (turns on EQ logging + Zeal exports for you), the /who overlay class picker anyone can use, the CH-chain trust banner, HP-bar text you can read on any color, and the auto-arrange freeze fix.
• PoP spells marked — The missing-spells page tags Planes of Power spells with a PoP pill — they’re locked until Oct 1, so don’t farm for scrolls you can’t scribe yet.

After Sunday’s speed bumps we went through everything the raid depends on and made it tougher: uploads can’t back up behind Discord anymore, a stuck upload can’t jam the queue, and the CH Chain overlay now TELLS you if it ever goes blind.

• CH Chain trust banner — The chain overlay now watches its own data feed. If calls stop mid-fight it shows an amber “verify verbally” warning — and if the feed itself dies it flashes a red GO MANUAL banner and says so out loud, so clerics switch to the classic chain before a tank drops, not after.
• Uploads never wait on Discord — Your parser gets its “got it” immediately; posting parse cards and chat to Discord happens afterwards. Busy-night Discord slowdowns can’t back up your upload queue anymore.
• Stuck uploads get parked — If one bad upload keeps getting rejected, it moves to a slow lane instead of clogging everything behind it. “Drain now” retries parked items at full speed.
• Pre-raid health check — At 7:30pm on raid nights the bot checks Discord, the database, sign-in, and wolfpack.quest, and posts one green/red line — so problems surface at setup, not at the first pull.
• /raid in the menu — The live raid page now sits in the main menu next to Buffs, and the character detail panel follows you as you scroll.

Everything from the 1.7.4 beta round: color themes with a one-click picker, hotkeys you can rebind or disable, an all-overlays opacity slider, backgrounds that hug their cards, and no surprise rearranging — ever.

• One control center — The Overlays page now holds it all: theme picker (Wolf/Light/Vivid/Muted/High contrast), rebindable + disableable hotkeys for hide-all and backgrounds, auto-arrange on demand, and a single opacity slider that sets every overlay at once.
• Backgrounds done right — Solid backgrounds are rounded, follow the opacity slider, and extend exactly as far as the content — no more tall empty slabs.
• Your layout is sacred — Opening an overlay never moves anything, and auto-arrange never resizes — it only runs when you click it, and windows keep their exact size.

Everything from the 1.7.2 beta line graduates to stable: the PoP raid slideshow, auto-arrange, color themes, class-default setups, and a pile of overlay polish.

• PoP raid slideshow — A new overlay walks the raid through every PoP/PoTime encounter — callouts, boss stats, live drop tables, shared objective checkboxes, EQProgression diagrams and phase videos, plus a ⚑ button to report where Quarm differs from the guides.
• Auto-arrange + themes — Right-click any overlay: auto-arrange packs your overlays around your in-game windows (edges first, center kept clear), five color themes (dark/light/vivid/muted/high-contrast), solid backgrounds, and a grow-upward mode for bottom-parked overlays.
• Class-default setups — A brand-new install turns on the right overlays for your class (officer-crafted on /admin/overlays) and arranges them automatically. Existing setups are never touched.
• Roll tracker + crash reports — The Command Center tracks loot rolls (winners per item, re-rolls struck out), and an opt-in tray toggle shares Zeal crash metadata so crash clusters can be spotted guild-wide — the memory dump never leaves your machine.

Prefer brighter overlays? Right-click any overlay and cycle the theme — it changes every overlay at once.

• Five themes — Wolf (the classic dark), Light, Vivid (brighter + punchier colors), Muted (softer), and High contrast. Danger colors stay meaningful in every theme — red is still red in Light mode. Your pick persists and composes with the solid-background toggle and opacity slider.

Opt in to share Zeal crash summaries (never the memory dump) so we can spot crash patterns across the guild, and copy unknown names off the /who overlay in one click.

• Share crash reports (opt-in, default OFF) — A new tray toggle. When on, Mimic reads the small crash summaries Zeal already writes and uploads just the metadata — which DLL crashed, where, your GPU/driver — so officers can see “five of us crash at the same spot”. The memory dump never leaves your machine. Details on the privacy page.
• /who copy button — Rows with no known class/level get a ⧉ button that copies the name — paste it into the Quarm Discord search to check their public posts.

The right-click overlay menu no longer clips or lingers, auto-arrange keeps the middle of your screen clear, and overlays can grow upward.

• Grow upward — Any overlay can now anchor its BOTTOM edge (right-click → ⬆ Grow upward) — perfect for Extended Target parked at the bottom of the screen: the list grows up instead of running off-screen.
• Edge-first arranging — Auto-arrange now treats the middle of your screen as the play area — overlays line the outside (right side first, then top/bottom, then left) and only use the center if there is truly nowhere else.

Officers craft a default overlay set per class; a brand-new Mimic install turns on the right overlays for your toon and arranges them around your in-game windows automatically.

• Class default sets — On /admin/overlays, officers pick which overlays each class starts with — clerics get the CH chain and Buff queue, warriors get the Tank HUD and Command Center, and so on. New installs pick their set up within a couple of minutes of logging in.
• First-boot arrangement — A fresh install no longer leaves overlays stacked in default spots — the first time it knows your class (or right after onboarding), it packs everything into the free space around your actual EQ windows.
• Your setup is safe — This only ever touches brand-new installs. If you have ever turned an overlay on yourself, saved a per-character layout, or placed things where you like them, nothing changes — updates and set edits never rearrange you.

A new overlay walks the raid through every Planes of Power + Plane of Time encounter — callouts, boss stats, diagrams, and objective checkboxes the whole raid shares.

• Encounter slideshow — Flip through 34 encounters from Grummus to Quarm (Tier 1–4 plus PoTime phase by phase). Each slide has the raid-leader callouts, boss HP/hits/slow/rampage, its named abilities, and the live drop table.
• Shared objectives — Every encounter has objective checkboxes — “doors held”, “50% dispel dodged” — that are raid-wide: when the puller checks one, everyone’s overlay ticks it and shows who did. Officers can reset the board between attempts.
• Diagrams & videos — Strategy diagrams load straight from EQProgression (credited, and never re-hosted by us), and each PoTime phase links its strategy video — one click opens it in your browser.
• Flag an anomaly — Quarm not matching the guide? Hit ⚑, type what you saw, and it lands in the officers’ QOL thread with the guide numbers attached for comparison.
• Ultrawide layout — A framed multi-panel mode (🖥) spreads callouts, target info, and objectives side-by-side for ultrawide monitors instead of one tall column.

Right-click any overlay → Auto-arrange: Mimic reads your in-game window layout and packs the visible overlays into the free space.

• Auto-arrange — Mimic reads the window positions EQ itself saves (your UI files — never modified), maps them onto your screen, and slots the visible overlays into the gaps — right edge first, never on top of your game windows or each other. Overlays that don’t fit shrink through the size presets until they do. There’s also an “arrange when overlays open” mode: turning an overlay on slides the others out of its way.
• Solid backgrounds — Every overlay can now have an opaque dark plate behind it for readability over bright zones — toggle one overlay from its right-click menu, or ALL of them at once with Ctrl+Shift+B.

Every /random in the zone is tracked and grouped by roll range — with the winners named, straight off your loot links.

• Rolls, grouped and won — Rolls with the same range (0–333, 0–555, …) group into a set, EQ Log Parser-style. Link loot in raid chat as “Item Name (3)333 | …” and the set picks up its item name — the (3) means the top three rolls each win one. The Command Center shows each set as “333 (Item name) — winner names”; the Mimic dashboard has the full table with every roll expandable.
• Fair by default — Only each player’s FIRST roll counts — re-rolls are listed struck through and can never win. Multi-boxers hearing the same roll on two logs count once.

The roster now counts a PERSON’s raid attendance across all their characters — plus an Alt Nights view.

• Attendance out of possible — Each roster row is a person: the percentage is raids attended on ANY of their characters out of all possible ticks, with the tick count right beside it. Someone who splits time across three characters finally shows their true 100% instead of three fragments.
• Alts fold under the main — Alts under 50% of a person’s usage tuck into an expandable “+N alts” line under the main — open it to see each alt’s ticks and usage share. An alt the person mostly plays stays visible.
• Alt Nights view — A toggle recomputes the whole page over just the alt-night raids (Alt Extravaganza / Alt Bonanza / VT + Alt Fun), so you can see who shows up for alt nights specifically.

Your Gear page no longer shows AAs you can’t have, and the faction page stops claiming you’re at max and min at the same time.

• Conned mobs show their faction — The faction page’s consider table now resolves each mob to its faction (with a PQDI link) — the lookup was reading an empty mirror table, so the column never appeared.

The /raid Mana list and Twitch Queue now fill from the “% mana” macros healers already call out — not just from casters running Mimic.

• Two mana sources, merged — Casters on Mimic report exact mana straight off their client (Zeal pipe). Everyone else is covered by their “% mana” raid-chat macros — if any one Mimic user hears the call-out, it lands on the board under the caller’s name. Readings persist through the whole fight (10-minute window), freshest source wins.

Quarm’s PoP-beta reward buffs (Beta Virtue, Beta VoG, …) now rank above the era tops instead of reading as missing buffs.

• Beta buffs recognized — Someone carrying Beta Virtue used to show empty HP slots on /raid — the queue would tell clerics to land Ancient Aego right over the strictly better buff. Beta Virtue now fills the Aego slots (and Beta VoG counts as top haste with its attack bonus), so beta-buffed raiders read as fully covered.

The /raid page now shows everyone’s mana at a glance and a Twitch Queue telling enchanters exactly who to feed next.

• Mana at a glance — A new Mana list in the /raid sidebar (under “Classes in raid”) shows every caster’s current mana — pulled straight from their own client via Mimic — sorted highest first, so you can see who still has gas.
• Twitch Queue — A prioritized list of who to twitch mana to next: lowest mana up top, Wizards and Enchanters first, then Clerics, then everyone else. No more guessing who’s about to go OOM.

The Tank overlay shows a non-Mimic tank’s exact HP near-live, and the Command Center now counts down defensives — active AND recharge.

• Exact tank HP, fast — When someone in the tank’s group runs /pipeverbose, the Tank overlay shows the tank’s real HP numbers (“4211 / 4348”), not just a percent — and it now refreshes about every 3 seconds instead of every 15-20.
• Defensive recharge timers — The Command Center shows a discipline’s remaining ACTIVE time counting down, then flips to “DOWN · m:ss” counting down the recharge until it’s usable again — so you always know when the next Defensive is ready.

The Tank overlay can now show the main tank’s HP even when the tank isn’t running Mimic — as long as someone in their group is.

• Borrowed HP from a groupmate — When the main tank isn’t on Mimic and you aren’t targeting or grouped with them, the Tank overlay used to just say “HP not visible.” Now it uses the tank’s HP as seen by any Mimic-running groupmate’s Zeal window — the same cross-client HP the /raid grid already shows — and it lights up on your Tank bar within a couple seconds. No Mimic update needed; your current agent picks it up on its own.

A rare pile-up in Mimic’s upload backlog could balloon to multiple GB and freeze every overlay mid-raid. It now bounds itself and cleans up after itself.

• Self-healing upload backlog — If the connection to the bot stalls during a raid, Mimic’s outbound queue used to grow without limit (one player’s hit 2.6 GB) and lock up the app so the DPS/Tank overlays stopped updating. The backlog is now capped by size, throwaway data (live casts, roster snapshots) is dropped first, and stale leftover files are swept on startup — a bloated folder shrinks itself the next time Mimic launches.

Warrior Defensive Discipline (and Weapon Shield) now show up on the Command Center’s defensives list, not just Divine Aura.

• Defensives, straight from the log — The Command Center reads Defensive Discipline directly off the combat log (“Soandso assumes a defensive fighting style”), so it lights up for any tank who pops it — no announce macro required — and clears when it fades. It also understands the chat call-outs tanks already use (“Defensive is activated”, “1 min on defensive”, “Weapon Shield activated for the next 15s!”), and each row is labeled with which cooldown it is.

A new account-wide inventory on /me: the total count of every item across all your characters, and exactly who’s holding it.

• Account inventory (/me → 🎒) — One list of every item across all your characters, with a running total and the per-character breakdown — “3 total: Bowvendor ×2 (shared bank), Manamana ×1 (bags)”. Items sitting in your shared bank are tagged, since any of your characters can pull them.
• Filters + include/exclude — Filter by Weapon / Armor / Tradeskill / No-Drop / Spell, search by name, and toggle which characters or which places (equipped / bags / bank / shared bank) to count — totals recompute live. It’s private to you, built from your /outputfile inventory uploads.

Officers can now file the level for PoP (and any un-scribed) spells so the missing-spells page stops dumping them all under “Level unknown.”

• Officer spell-level editor — The missing-spells page groups by level, but a spell nobody has scribed yet (every PoP 61-65 spell, until the October unlock) has no level to group by — the game data mirror doesn’t carry class levels. Officers now get a little “type a level” box next to each unknown-level spell; set it once and it applies guild-wide. The instant a real druid scribes the spell and uploads their book, their actual level takes over automatically.

Your spellbook flows to the site automatically, so the missing-spells page stays current on its own.

• Automatic spellbook ingest — Run /outputfile spellbook in game and Mimic uploads it within a few minutes — same as your Quarmy gear and inventory. No more copy-pasting into the site. The manual paste stays as a fallback for standalone/older setups, and it honors your inventory opt-out.

Your character’s missing-spell list now includes the ones you have to go get, not just what a vendor sells.

• Every missing spell, not just buyable — The missing-spells page now lists all of a class’s spells you haven’t scribed — quest, drop, and planar spells (Divine Intervention, Mark of Karn, …) included. Each is tagged 🛒 buyable or ⚔ go-get, and the “find ↗” link opens PQDI so you can see exactly where a non-vendor spell drops.

The road to Quarm gets a map, and the whole site gets more flexible.

• PoP Flags (Preview) — A live chart of the guild’s Planes of Power flagging — who can enter each zone today, and a planner that ranks what to raid next by how many people each kill pushes forward.
• Raid Roster — Your typical raiders, grouped by role and class, sorted by 60-day attendance. Notable alts are called out in italics under their class.
• Expandable time windows — Leaderboards, parses, and PvP now let you expand or contract the window — day, week, 30/60/90 days, the whole expansion, or lifetime.
• Sharper link previews — Sharing any page link in Discord now unfurls with that page’s own description instead of the generic site blurb.

Mimic now surfaces every scrap of live game data Zeal exposes.

• Zeal Pipe explorer — A new Info-tab panel that decodes everything the Zeal pipe carries — your stats, buffs, group, spell gems, position — each section expandable. Fully documented, so nothing is guesswork anymore.
• Real HP on the tank overlay — The tank overlay’s raw HP numbers used to be nonsense; now they read your actual current/max HP, correct even at full health.
• Raid-wide HP via /pipeverbose — Turning on /pipeverbose in-game streams exact HP and zone for the whole raid, not just percentages.

Officers can reach every Mimic at once, and the whole stack got faster.

• Mimic Mail — Officers publish a notice on the site and every running Mimic shows a pulsing mail icon within ~90 seconds — mark it critical and the bot also posts it to Discord. Works on every future Mimic version with no extra plumbing.
• “✓ cured” button — When nobody near a cursed player runs Mimic, anyone can now clear a stuck cure-need from the whole raid’s queue with one click.
• Efficiency pass — Overlays skip repainting unchanged frames, the buff queue computes once for the whole raid instead of once per person (~20× less database traffic), and agent log parsing got cheap pre-filters across the board.
