Proczors
Every World of Warcraft player knows the feeling: you are deep in a rotation, the boss mechanic is coming, and somewhere in the corner of your screen a proc fired off that you completely missed. Missing a proc can mean lost damage, a broken healing chain, or a tank cooldown that never went up. Proczors exists to make sure that never happens again.
Originally released under the name BloodSurge, Proczors has evolved into the next generation of proc monitoring. It is a lightweight, fully configurable addon that alerts you to any predefined or custom spell ID or spell name through visual and audible warnings. Whether you play a Warrior fishing for Execute resets or a Mage watching for Hot Streak, Proczors keeps your attention exactly where it needs to be.
What Makes Proczors Different
Most proc trackers force you into a fixed setup. Proczors takes the opposite approach. Almost every element of the alert can be tuned, from the flash intensity to the exact position of the spell icon on your screen. The addon supports virtually any class and any proc, which makes it a universal tool rather than a spec-specific solution.
- Predefined spell IDs for every class, ready to use out of the box
- User-defined spell IDs or spell names for complete flexibility
- Full screen flash with fully configurable behavior
- Sound playback through AceGUI-3.0-SharedMediaWidgets
- Warning text printed in the UIErrorFrame
- Relative flashing spell icon with adjustable size, X position, and Y position
- Simple in-game configuration through the Blizzard options panel
Configuration and Commands
Setting up Proczors takes seconds. Type /proczors in chat to open the configuration, then browse the options panel to toggle alerts, choose sounds, and position your icon. Because the addon hooks into the standard Blizzard settings panel, you never have to learn a separate interface or memorize slash commands beyond the one that opens it.
The full screen flash deserves special mention. When a critical proc lands, a subtle screen edge glow is easy to ignore during a hectic encounter, but a configurable flash grabs your peripheral vision instantly. Pair it with an audio cue and you have a redundant alert system that works even when your eyes are locked on the boss.
Version Compatibility Across World of Warcraft
One of the most common questions about any addon is whether it still works on your client. Proczors is built to serve players across multiple eras of the game, including Retail, Classic, The Burning Crusade, Wrath of the Lich King, Cataclysm, and Mists of Pandaria. The core alert logic relies on spell IDs and combat log events that have remained stable across these versions, so the same monitoring approach carries over whether you are raiding current content or reliving WotLK.
If you play on more than one client, keeping addons updated manually becomes a chore fast. The foxygame.net launcher solves that problem neatly, offering one-click installation and automatic updates so your Proczors setup stays current across every game version you have installed. It also groups the entire addon catalog in a single interface, which means you can grab Proczors for World of Warcraft alongside your other essential tools without juggling zip files or folder paths.
Retail, Classic, and Everything Between
Each game version has its own quirks. Classic Era players deal with different spell ranks, while Cataclysm and MoP characters benefit from talent systems that change which procs matter. Proczors handles this through its user-defined spell ID system, letting you add the exact triggers your character needs regardless of which expansion you are logged into. Predefined class entries cover the common cases, and custom entries cover the rest.
How to Install Proczors
Installation follows the standard addon process. If you prefer doing it manually, the steps are straightforward:
- Close World of Warcraft completely before touching your addon folder
- Locate your Interface folder inside the game directory, then open the AddOns subfolder
- Place the Proczors folder directly inside AddOns, not nested inside another folder
- Restart the game and confirm the addon appears in the character selection addon list
- Log in and type /proczors to begin configuring your alerts
If you would rather skip the manual file management, a launcher-based install handles the folder placement for you and keeps everything patched. Either way, the process takes less than a minute, and download Proczors from a trusted source to avoid outdated or modified files.
Localization and Community
Proczors supports translations contributed by the community, and the project actively welcomes help localizing it into additional languages. If you are fluent in a language that is not yet covered, contributing translations is one of the easiest ways to give back to the addon ecosystem.
Final Thoughts
Proczors fills a specific but important role. It is not a full UI overhaul or a rotation helper; it is a focused alert system that tells you the moment something worth reacting to happens. The combination of predefined class spell IDs, custom entries, configurable flashes, and sound alerts makes it flexible enough for any spec while staying small and fast. Whether you are pushing mythic keys on Retail or leveling through TBC, Proczors gives you one less thing to miss.
