Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about WoW combat routines, how Murlocs works, and how to get started. For deeper reading, see our guides.
What is a combat routine (CR)?
A combat routine is logic that determines which ability to use next in combat. Addons like Ovale and Hero Rotation read the routine and suggest the optimal spell or ability in real time. CRs handle single-target and AoE priorities, cooldown timing, and resource management so you can focus on mechanics while still executing well.
Which framework do your CRs run on?
Murlocs CRs are built for the Project Sylvanas framework. You'll need a Project Sylvanas account and their loader to run our routines. See our setup guide for step-by-step instructions.
How do I get access to the routines?
All CR downloads, patch notes, and support are in our Discord. Join at discord.gg/murlocs-invite and you'll find spec-specific channels with downloads and instructions.
How often do you update routines?
We update CRs when patches, tier sets, or balance changes affect rotation priorities. Major patches typically get updates the same day or within a short window. We post announcements and new files in Discord as we ship. Our supported specs page shows current coverage.
Can I request a new spec or suggest a change?
Yes. Use the request channels in Discord to ask for new specs, report issues, or suggest improvements. We prioritize based on demand and patch relevance. If a spec is listed as planned on our supported specs page, we're actively working on it.
Are your CRs sim-accurate?
Yes — we build and validate priorities using SimulationCraft and theorycrafting sources, then tune against real combat logs and actual content. Every CR is tested in training dummies, Mythic+, and raid before shipping. We re-validate after major patches and tier changes.
Do the CRs work for both M+ and raiding?
Yes. Our routines handle both single-target (raid bosses) and multi-target (M+ packs) automatically. Community members have reported 90%+ parses in 8/8 heroic and cleared keys at the 12–14 level using our CRs. Healer specs are also tested for mythic raiding.
Is there a cost to use Murlocs?
Murlocs CRs are distributed through Discord. Pricing, if any, is communicated there. Join the Discord for current access details — we don't publish pricing on this site.
