The Addon announces Ulmath, Moon Priestess Liara, Guardian Tyr'Mar and Wekemara (Nazjatar World-Bosses) as rare mobs. The Mobs may appear as rare mob (silver border), but i would not count them as rare mobs and in my opinion, the addon should not announce
Hi. I was testing this today when i had a rare spawn outside of target range. Currently that often means me finding the rare in the Tomcat's Tours list, to get an arrow to lead me there. I was thinking it would be great if when out of target range of a rare, if instead you could click and bring up a tomtom pointer leading you to them. I am not a coder, so I have no idea if this is a 5 minute thing, or a 'cannot change the laws of physics' type of request. :)
Hello, for those that have ElvUI, channel n.1 is for addon comm (ElvUIGVC) and not the general zone one.
Can you make it a parameter to pass for the channel number to send the message without modifing the LUA code?
Also if the rare is not engaged, and always on the target is it possible to announce when that is engaged automaticly without using the macro again with a shot message like "rare is engaged now" or "rare dead".
Regards
Would be nice if you could add something like:
Rare: Mr.Fixthiss has died.
Whenever the rare gets killed
hi there,
2 Rares that spawn INSIDE the Obsidian Citadel (downstairs) are found by the AddOn but click on the chat text does not announce them.
I think this is because INSIDE the Obsidian Citadel is a "unknown/wrong" Zone or Zone ID?
Rares that does not work are:
Shas'ith
Rasnar the War Ender

A few people called me a liar for broadcasting scrap king death :)
I dont care that much, figured i;d report it in case you could code for him it had to hit 0% twice to announce death or something similar.
Hi I i just downloaded this. It's installed and loaded in wow and shows up in the addon menu with the yellow checkmark next to it.
When I type any of the commands in game I just receive an error that says, "Type '/help' for a listing of a few commands."
I have tried having a rare selected and also not selected when trying to type the commands. I am in Vale during the mantid invasion.
Thanks for your help.
I recently installed AnnounceRare and the first couple of days it worked perfectly. However, starting around yesterday or maybe the day before, the /rare command stopped working. I then activated debugging using /rare debug and when I tried using the /rare command again I got the message "Skipping print due to throttle". This message doesn't seem accurate in my case, since this morning I got the same message on the very first attempt I made since logging in. So I know I am not using the function too often.

Would you consider hosting the add-on here so those of us who wish to avoid Overwolf could do so?
It'd be nice to have the addon packaged as release ZIPs here to be supported by other package managers (e.g. CurseBreaker).
Thank you!
Here's the conversation on another add-ons:
SLOKnightfall/BetterWardrobe#250
davidmeen/TomeOfTeleportation#14
The announce is completely unresponsive, and there is no response at the time of death. There is an error in the input command.
This addon has been unable to properly announce, I want to give up...

I'm in Nazjatar..
I recently got AnnounceRare and had the same issue others have reported with chat commands mysteriously not working. Typing /rare or /rare help caused the standard WoW message for an invalid command: "Type '/help' for a listing of a few commands."
Disabling all addons except AnnounceRares allowed its chat commands to work properly, so I went through and tried to find what other addons were causing the conflict. I narrowed it down to Rarity.
I confirmed that Rarity registers /rare as an alias for its default command, /rarity in AceConsole. I think commands get registered the order addons are loaded, so Rarity registering its function to /rare overwrites AnnounceRares' function. Strangely, /rarity actually doesn't do anything, so that must be why /rare isn't functional either; Rarity's chat command function is broken. People would have instantly identified the source of this issue ages ago if the Rarity options menu popped up instead of nothing happening!
On my system, I changed AnnounceRare's AceConsole registration from "rare" to "annr" and now it works properly with Rarity enabled. A proper solution would be to add an alias for AnnounceRare's chat command we can use in case of conflicts, though that would take a tiny bit of refactoring from how it's currently written (anonymous function).
In |cffffff00/rare output (general|say|yell|guild|party|raid)|r, "aid)" of raid is white instead of yellow. It is necessary escaped | (pipe).
it's impossible to announce Taspu (Uldum) as he's in the "chamber of stars" whose zone ID is different from Uldum's. The same is in the Vale with the green jade thing. I know the "debug" mode enables to see the zone id, but it doesn't work AFAIK.
It's very hit or miss when the chat line appears for me to click on when a rare is available to be announced. I'll click on the rare and most of the time the option to announce doesn't appear, but the option to announce that the rare is dead will become available once the rare dies.
Also, If possible, please add an option similar to rare share where a separate box appears that I can click on rather than in my main chat window. I have my Main/Gen chat windows separated to reduce chat clutter and it becomes a bit annoying to constantly click between the two to share info.
Title. Urduu for some reason is a Gold Dragon portrait rather than a Silver Dragon, despite being a rare spawn. (and needed for the Achievement to kill all the rares). As such, he is not announced when you target him, nor can you manually announce him by typing /rare.
I'm not entirely sure, but I think the same issue happens with one of the other Coral Ancient Rares. (Anemonar? Maybe Kelpwillow?)
And on a second note, is there a reason we can't manually announce a rare we've already seen/killed for the day, for other people in the zone? Like I was passing by Carnivorous Lasher today and I tried to announce it even though I didn't need it to let others know it was up, but the addon refused to let me.
Like, why not just enable a 30 minute waiting period between allowing you to announce the same rare or something?
When fighting/targeting Earthbreaker Gulroc, I get the announcement for Arachnoid Harvester. I updated it myself in my own lua file but thought you might want to know.

I found this addon incredibly helpful to the WoW community during BfA, and would love to carry on using it in the Shadowlands expansion. I'm not a programmer, so I can't be sure how difficult it would be to add in the rare list (specifically the ones for the zone achievements)?
title. Typing /rare doesn't yield advertised results anymore.
When Scrap King's mount dies, it announces it as a full death, rather than as the mount dying, but will then also announce the proper death afterwards.
Hi,
The ability to announce rares with their location is great. Yet outside the .X zones there are some mobs with rare drops with a long spawn timer, that I would like to announce in a similar fashion.
E.g. Warbring Mal'Orak in MAsdraxxus.
A command line similar to "/ar2 add target" / " /ar2 add NPCid" and similar "/ar2 remove target" would be awesome.
When I right click a toons name in my guild to copy character name I cannot copy it. Announce rare error comes up saying it stopped this and I need to disable Announce Rare. So I disable the addon and then I can copy names in game again.
Hi there,
It seems every Rare from all the Elemental Storms are missing!
i've added it by myself but maybe needs investigation, maybe there are some missing?

},i used this is source:
https://www.wowhead.com/achievement=16461/stormed-off
so this should be very accurate "i hope"!
Would be great if it could monitor General chat, and if someone else using the same addon sends an alert for a mob, it does not trigger your alert.
As more and more people use the addon, im starting to see general get filled up with spam from 4-5 people per rare, and then the obligatory 5 immediate spams when it dies
Just not seeing any chat messages other than help and setting changes. When I click on a rare nothing happens. No error windows either. Let me know if you need anything.
Version: 1.1.7
The /rare armory - Command does not send to the output channel set by /rare output. Instead it always announces to general chat.
Expected behaviour: The /rare armory - Command always announces to the channel set by /rare output. This would make it's behaviour more consistent with that of /rare and /rare death
Hey! Spanish also uses "Channel: Zone", please take a look at this comment I left on a diff addon on BFA
https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/rare-share?comment=47
I assume this would be the fix for this addon:
return GetChannelName(
(GetLocale() == "ruRU" or GetLocale() == "esMX") and channelRUFormat:format(general, zoneText) or channelFormat:format(general, zoneText)

after the last reset i cant announce rares anymore when i target a rare and type /rare. my girlfriend also tried doing the same but it didnt work for her too.
hi there, again ^^
the Qalashi War Mammoth with the ID 192737 is also missing in the DB.
Will it be added the new rares from 8.3 patches?
Even after a fresh reload, or a login always keep saying this message (debug active).
Hello! Thanks for the helpful addon, and looking forward to using it in Shadowlands.
Recently, there was a reddit post about a macro that can allow other players click to set a pin. Here's the post with screenshots:
https://www.reddit.com/r/wow/comments/jb5yjt/i_made_a_macro_to_quickly_help_others_by/
I think that this would be a fantastic addition to AnnounceRare's functionality using the new tools!
Up to 2 releases ago, the auto death announce worked fine. Now, even though I know it is set to automatically announce rare deaths, it is not working. I have no idea why. I do not have the rare announcer set to automatic, as I like to manually type /rare to not spam general. I also don't like to announce when the rares are almost dead.
Needs updating for 9.2's new zone, Zereth Mortis. Currently gives "AR2: You must be in a valid zone to send announcements." error when trying to use.
Hello, @cr4ckp0t I love this addon- of all the similar addons I've seen, this by a wide margin is one of truly superior ones (and that I've only seen that actually provides a map ping). However, since the new update I've noticed a few errors when logging in, that seem to point to the Ace3 Library, please see below:
