Bonus Roll Mover
Few things in World of Warcraft are as satisfying as seeing that Bonus Roll window pop up after a boss kill, and few things are as annoying as having it appear right in the middle of your action bars, raid frames, or WeakAuras. Bonus Roll Mover solves that problem with a single, focused purpose: putting Blizzard's Bonus Roll window exactly where you want it, without touching the rest of your interface.
What Bonus Roll Mover Actually Does
Bonus Roll Mover is a lightweight addon that gives you full control over the position of Blizzard's Bonus Roll frame. It does not redesign your UI, reskin your windows, or add unnecessary features. It moves one frame, remembers where you put it, and stays out of your way. The motto says it all: same loot, better position.
You have two ways to set your preferred spot:
- Drag the real Bonus Roll window while it is visible during an actual roll.
- Use the built-in Position Preview when no Bonus Roll is currently active.
Once positioned, Bonus Roll Mover remembers the location and applies it automatically the next time the window appears. No more frantic dragging mid-fight.
Position Preview and Slash Commands
Configure Without Waiting for Loot
The Position Preview is one of the addon's best features. You do not need to wait for a real Bonus Roll to configure anything. Open the preview, drag it to your preferred spot, and right-click to save. The saved position is used the next time Blizzard's Bonus Roll window shows up.
Handy Slash Commands
- /bonusrollmover or /brm — open the settings panel.
- /brm preview — toggle the position preview on or off.
- /brm reset — reset the saved position to default.
- /brm minimap — show or hide the minimap button.
If you prefer a one-click install, the foxygame.net launcher carries Bonus Roll Mover in its addon catalog and handles updates automatically, so your saved position keeps working patch after patch.
Standalone or BlizzMove: Your Choice
Bonus Roll Mover works completely on its own and requires no additional libraries or dependencies. If you already use BlizzMove, however, you can choose which addon controls Blizzard's Bonus Roll window:
- Bonus Roll Mover — BRM controls the window and uses its own saved position.
- BlizzMove — Bonus Roll Mover steps aside completely and lets BlizzMove handle movement and positioning.
The two addons store their positions separately, which means you can even save a different Bonus Roll position for each mode. Switching the active controller automatically reloads the interface so only one addon manages the window at a time.
Account-Wide Settings and Localization
Configure Bonus Roll Mover once and your setup carries across every character on your account. Both the saved position and the selected window controller are shared account-wide, so alts inherit your preferences instantly. The addon ships with full English and German localization, making it accessible to a wide range of players.
Built-In Fail-Safe and Compatibility
Blizzard occasionally changes or removes frames in patches. Bonus Roll Mover includes a defensive fail-safe: if the expected Bonus Roll frame is altered or missing after a future update, the addon disables its mover for the current session instead of spamming Lua errors. That is a thoughtful touch that keeps your UI clean even when the game shifts beneath it.
Bonus Roll Mover is designed for World of Warcraft Retail, and its simple frame-based approach means it fits comfortably alongside most interface setups. Players exploring other versions such as Classic, The Burning Crusade, Wrath of the Lich King, Cataclysm, and Mists of Pandaria should check the addon's compatibility notes before use, since Bonus Roll functionality and frame names differ between game versions. Addon compatibility is generally strongest on Retail, where the Bonus Roll system is fully supported.
How to Install Bonus Roll Mover
Installing the addon is straightforward. If you download Bonus Roll Mover manually, extract the folder into your World of Warcraft Interface/AddOns directory and restart the client. If you use a launcher such as foxygame.net, you can add Bonus Roll Mover for World of Warcraft directly from its catalog and let the launcher manage version compatibility and updates for you.
After installation, log in, type /brm, and either drag the preview or wait for your next Bonus Roll to fine-tune the placement. Save the position once, and the addon handles the rest.
Final Thoughts
Bonus Roll Mover is proof that the best addons are often the simplest ones. It does not try to replace your interface or compete with your favorite UI suite. It focuses on one task: placing Blizzard's Bonus Roll window exactly where you want it and keeping it there. Set the position once, let Bonus Roll Mover remember it, and get back to the loot.
