off topic question: is it possible to communicate with server from addons? For example, do I understand correclty that Atlas loot reads data from server or everything in addon is hardcoded?

Addons can use the wowapi to communicate with the server.

I doubt AtlasLoot receives information from the server, just like addons like DBM doesn't (I know this because timers are way off on several encounters)

Atlas loot can query the server for items, when you right click

the position of items is hardcoded

Yes, it can grab information for items but it's not like it grabs loot tables from the server

Nop, definitely not loot tables

Just item stats

Might be able to make an addon/module to query loot tables to be accessible to the client

I forgot about that part so I'm only 50% right. Yes, it requests item stats but nothing more.
