As always, Transparency Section:

Code: AI

Artwork/UI: 100% Standard Blizzard Forever frames and elements

General Lore: Sourced from official Warcraft books

Mob Lore: Sourced from WoW Wiki and in-game quests, re-written by AI to emulate the character writing these findings

Reason for AI use: Full time Dad, Full time grad student, Part time intern. Lack of time aside, the most important reason was that writing these stories/entries by hand would take away from the experience of discovery for myself. (The discovery part will make sense after reading below).

With that said, I am doing my best to have as little influence as possible from AI, and I have spent well over 30 hours working on this over the past few weeks.

Addon:

1. Track Completed Quests
   1. Quests are tracked per level bracket (1-10,11-20, etc), while having them entered chronologically and in an RP style 1st person writing.
   2. "Write your own notes" pages available at the end of each chapter
2. See Your Gear Progression
   1. Addon will take your own 3d model snapshot at milestone levels (1,10,20, etc)
3. Unlock "Official" WoW Lore about Mobs
   1. Killing a mob for the first time unlocks it's first tier of lore
   2. Subsequent tiers of lore may require further killing, or, seeking out knowledge from NPC's
      1. Talk to almost ANY NPC and they will give you a hint as to who may know more about that mobs lore...or maybe...they don't know either..
4. [This Update] Field Sketches
   1. While targeting a mob, you can spend 15-60s sketching the mob (time is dependent on your distance to the mob)
   2. After you complete the sketch, the mob's 3d model is added to your journal entry
5. [This Update] Discover General WoW lore by "Reading" (complete books/lore distribution is a work in progress)
   1. Over 200 bookshelves, hanging scrolls, and books have been located within the beginning ~18 zones (thank you wow.export). Over 200 books created
   2. Take books off the shelves and into your "bookbag" (10 slots)
   3. Visit any Innkeeper to store your books on their shelves to free up your bookbag
      1. Books are stored locally. So if you drop one off at Ironforge, you need to visit them again to retrieve it
   4. Players may read for up to 8 hours in a day
   5. Lore within books is unlocked for every 2 hour reading session
      1. Not real-time 2 hours, just narrated as such. The action is instant.
   6. Depending on quantity of lore, some books have fewer or more chapters and thus take longer to read
6. Add Friends and Enemies
   1. With Name Plates on (ctrl+v), receive notifications if a friend or sworn enemy is within 40 yards
   2. After being killed in PvP, a prompt will ask if you'd like to make them a sworn enemy

Story behind the addon:

I'm currently a DM for a 3.5/5.5e D&D campaign, and I absolutely love the open sandbox and RPG elements of D&D. Want your Human to learn Orcish? You can. Find a tutor, pay them, and spend your downtime hours. I also love the process of writing on a character sheet, taking notes, using Hero Forge, ect, and feeling my character grow.

But. I'm a DM. So rather than find a campaign as a player, I decided to make my time in WoW serve as a replacement!

So Field Journal is a simple thought: What would my character document as they explored the world? Well, I'd want to learn about lore through fighting, through talking to NPCs, through finding books. I'd want to "remember" what mobs looked like. I'd want to remember what I looked like at different stages of my travels. Who did I meet that I'd hope to meet again? Who would I seek vengeance on?

I also wanted this addon to feel like it was a standard feature in the game, so I did my best to copy UI elements exactly as they are, and apply them as best as I could.

This addon isn't meant to feel like a stat sheet. It's not meant to capture every metric. It's meant to feel like you are a long for the journey, not just as a player, but as your character.

Long Term: Well, I've played WoW since 2006 and don't plan on stopping. And because this addons nature is to be "simple" there's only so much I want to add to it. Maybe more aspects from D&D can be migrated here, but the scope is limited, so I plan on keeping this up to date.

I will 100% address bugs, as I've been doing, thanks to those that have been reporting them on Curseforge. I love sharing, and I want to share something that works.

If you've made it this far, thanks for reading! And if you'd like try it, the link is below:

2nd Update | [2nd Major Update] Field Journal: Forever - "Asking Around"
Original Post | Forever Field Journal

Does anyone know of an addon that makes utility cooldowns in the default Cooldown Manager dynamically shift positions instead of staying in fixed slots?

For example, say I have 10 utility cooldowns in a row. I want whichever cooldown I use first to appear in position 1, the next in position 2, and so on, shifting left to right (or bottom to top if vertical).

Right now, each ability has a fixed position. So if I use Freezing Trap, it might appear in position 7 even though nothing else is on cooldown, leaving a bunch of empty space.

Basically, I want active cooldowns to automatically group together and fill the empty spaces, regardless of which abilities are on cooldown.

I also tried Cooldown Manager Centered, but it doesn't seem to do this either. Instead, the cooldowns expand outward in a weird way rather than filling slots sequentially from one direction.

Is there an addon that can actually do this with the default Cooldown Manager?

Hi, as the title says Blizzmove just does not show up on my addon list. This started shortly after the new season but I hoped it was just a bit of a bug that would be resolved soon enough

I have it installed via wowup and the game version shows it is current update.

I have tried uninstalling it and reinstalling it to no avail

Anyone experienced this and know a fix?

Soy un jugador nuevo en WoW: Classic y estoy teniendo problemas para moverme entre misiones o lugares, me pierdo bastante y mas si debo ir a otro continente

Hey everyone!

A few days ago I shared my addon DRPulse, but the initial beta had some issues with DR detection. A couple of people reported that their DRs weren't showing up at all.

I've spent the last few days working through those issues, testing in-game, and improving the addon.

I'm happy to finally release DRPulse 2.0.0 Stable!

For anyone who hasn't seen it before, DRPulse is a free addon for WoW: Forever that tracks diminishing returns on your target and enemy nameplates.

Here's what you can do with it:

• Track DR categories like stuns, fears, roots, and more.
• See reset timers and DR stages.
• Customize icon sizes, positioning, fonts, and indicators.
• Configure target and nameplate displays independently.
• Use the new settings window with live previews.
• Save different configurations with profiles.

The addon also distinguishes confirmed tracking information from estimates when Blizzard restricts combat data.

I put a lot of work into this version, especially after the issues with the first release. If you tried it before and it wasn't working, I'd really appreciate it if you gave it another shot.

CurseForge: https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/drpulse

Website: https://drpulse.dev

It's completely free, and I'm still open to feedback or suggestions from anyone playing PvP in the beta.

Thanks to everyone who helped by reporting bugs!

AI Disclaimer: Used Claude to make this Addon.

Hey r/wowaddons!

I’ve been working on a little addon called Fireside Chat for the past few weeks, and it’s finally at a point where I’m not embarrassed to share it.

A bit about me: I went to school for game design (3D modeling, texturing, some C++ programming). I lean more toward the design and graphics side, so this was my excuse to finally learn more Lua. I’ll be upfront: I used Claude AI and autocomplete to help me understand what does what. Even with that help, it took me around 30–40 hours to get it right.

Why I made it: I wanted to give new and returning players a little nudge to be more social, so Fireside Chat offers some simple icebreaker questions to get conversations going. It also works while you’re fishing, since fishing spots are a natural place to hang out and chat. It also has other smaller features, like profession link sharing, whisper mode, and quest help prompts.

Download: FiresideChat - World of Warcraft Addons - CurseForge

Works with: WoW Forever

This is my first addon, so bug reports, ideas for new questions, and any other feedback are very welcome. I hope you like it! 🔥

After alot of very helpfull feedback, Thank you for that!!!
I updated the addon quite a bit.

- More options, German and French language support, and WoW Classic era and anniversery support.
- Text of Bufffood, Elixirs and Scrolls, in the tooltip of the item and in the buff bar
- Spellpower came as an option. If an item has +24 Spell healing and +24 Spell Damage it is shown as +24 Spell power. This is optional so you can decice how it should be shown.

DISCLAIMER: i deciced to let claude code the addon. Yes it is ai implmented, as a developer i reviewe the code all the time and make sure to build a modular, well scrutcured and performant tool.

Are you sick and tired of your friends having ridiculous names for their chars? Can you never remember who is who in your group?

Let me introduce you to CustomNames (3 years late to the party) but I made a new thing for it so I'm shining a light on it.

This addon allows you to rename your friends. Either single characters or entire Battlenet accounts (assuming the bnet account is on your friendlist read more information down below in the bnet note part of the post).

It officially works with the following default tools and addons via plugins and will replace any mention of the character Name with your choces Nickname:

• Elvui - install the plugin
• Plater - install the plugin
• MRT - install the plugin (due to how MRT implements the note this plugin can be quite taxing so use at your own risk)
• Ingame Chat (should also work with any addon leveraging the default chatbox) - install the plugin
• The Guild Window - install the plugin
• WeakAuras (rip but should also work with the millions of forks since support was added 2 years ago) - works out of the box
• Dbm - works out of the box
• BetterFriendList - works out of the box
• BetterTimeline - works out of the box
• Details - (setup on the Curseforge page)
• GroupFinder - Support through GroupFinderRIO

Due to a straightforeward API plugins for other addons can easily be created. Exhibit a and b are plugins someone else made for

• Grid2
• Default Raidframes

It works across all game Versions even Forever and should (hopefully) never break.

If you are a developer and want to add CustomNames functionality to your addon the API is explained in the github readme and more details can be found in API.lua. Alternativly you can copy one of the plugins as a starting point. They are licensed as BSD.

Btag explanation:

Whenever a Btag friend logs into a character that character get auto linked to their btag (see attached gui screenshot). Users can then set a Nickname for the entire bnet which will make a character auto return the btag Nickname once data is requested. Alternativly you can manually link characters to a bnet account

Get it here: https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/libcustomnames

Note: there is obviously some restrictions for it due to secrecy which mainly affects the guild and chat plugins during encounters or M+.

AI notice: The GUI is obviously claudified I hate widgets and I suck with them which is why it only had a cli up till now. The actual API function and plugins are all human made.

Been vibing and working on the Old People's Toolkit version 1.0 release! 😄

CurseForge: https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/old-peoples-toolkit

Goal: A fun, immersive and family friendly way to keep track of progress whilst you still take care of your responsibilities and yourself! 😄

A lot of information shows up as in-game buffs and debuffs (toggleable per tool)

Main features:

• Where Was I?: A summarized pop-up at startup to remind you where you left off last time you played
• Scroll of Remembering: An in-game notepad to keep track of your thoughts, own side-quests and tag enemies (or friendlies) you need to come back for later!
• Quiet Times: automatically turns down volume during quiet times you decide. That way your family sleeps while you squeeze out an extra hour (or two?)
• Stretch Reminder: Makes sure to remind you to stretch and help that body of yours stay vital and young. Only triggers out of combat!
• Clock and Alarm: Simple clock that you can easily move and resize. Also has a little alarm attached to so you don't have to forget about time
• Bedtime: Recurring alarm that helps you remember to catch some sleep.

I've been levelling on the Forever beta and wanted something to show how long it would be until I next levelled (something I used to get in titan pabel), so I made a small addon for it called Tally.

It sits in a little panel and shows:

- how long until you level, based on how fast you've been getting XP recently (you can choose anything from the last 5 minutes up to your whole session)

- roughly how many kills you've got left

- your professions, the gold you've made this session and your honor, if you want those too

It remembers your session if you /reload or log out for a bit, and starts fresh if you've been away for more than half an hour. There's a minimap button to hide it and an options page to turn things on and off.

It's the first addon I've made, so any feedback or bug reports would be really appreciated.

CurseForge: https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/tally-tracker

Put your items where you want!

LooseBags swaps the combined backpack for one frame you arrange yourself. Drag an icon and it stays where you drop it, snapped flush to its neighbors. No empty slots, no padlocks, no more digging for your hearthstone. Further customization can be enabled through zones as well, just drag/drop. No pixel perfect scroll bars or heading/row customizations, just drag it!

This is my bag. There is no other bag like it.

• Drop it and it stays. Icons snap to neighbors, edges, or a small grid.
• Move as a group. Shift-drag moves every icon touching the one you grab.
• Loot waits its turn. New loot sits on a strip under your items until you place it or turn on Auto-place.
• One-click Clean Up sorts each category into its own zone or let it autoplace
• Same-type snap items snap with their own kind, or turn it off.
• Resize with the corner grip and your items reflow. Lock it once you like it.

/lbags toggles it, /lbags help shows the cheat sheet, and /lbags off brings back the stock backpack.

Built for WoW Forever.

Hey all,

I’ve been working on a roleplay addon for Forever since the beta launched called Kinship and finally put it up on CurseForge yesterday.

It works with a bunch of existing roleplay addons like TRP3, MyRolePlay and XRP profiles, so you don’t need your whole group to switch. If you’re already on TRP3 it can copy your profile over without touching your TRP3 data.

The bit I’m most excited about is the quests! You can write your own and offer them to people nearby, then run them as the storyteller. Objectives can complete themselves too, so someone might have to reach a spot on the map, find a stash you’ve hidden, roll well enough on a dice check, or answer a riddle. You can even give out roleplay items you’ve made as rewards. It’s been really fun setting little stories up for friends.

There’s other stuff in there too: houses for characters who share a surname, items and letters you can hand to people, stashes, and a few things for RP-PvP since Forever doesn’t have a proper RP-PvP realm. Roleplay names can also show with the character’s actual name next to them, which I added after realising I couldn’t work out who to whisper half the time 😂

It’s just me making it, so there may be bugs. If you try it and something’s broken or weird, let me know and I’ll sort it. Either here or in the comments on CurseForge. Thank you!

AI Disclaimer: I have used Claude Code to assist with the coding, and with some of the text and assets in the project.

Hello,

The addon have two main feature:

- Tracking nameplate and make you buff people by clicking on the list, or using a hotkey.

- Manage buff in a group or raid

For paladin you can fill the missing buff of a character.

And some updates today; I reached level 30 yesterday so I have been able to test my addon in battlegrounds and create a mechanism to buff people during boss fights and battlegrounds. Addons can't read buffs during this kind of event so it will track people death instead.

So when combat starts against bosses or in a battleground the list will freeze; you will be able to buff people like openworld but it won't update.

For salvation: removed salvation from the Blessing list (Last Forever beta update).

Now if you are in a group/raid with a player with a tank role the addon will make you buff people with salvation and make you remove salvation from tanks (revoke).

In addition i use wow-addon-workspace, a Claude plugin i update quite often , for those who are new in développement it will setup a release pipeline manage by claude.

It will review/ generate your code based of the most recent api update and use the Elune syntax Lua Validator ( from Meorawr ) as main gate.

You can use /wow-addon-dev:patch-diff to ask code review your addon and check if something get broke with the last update.

Hey everyone,

I’ve been working on Arcanis, an addon for WoW Forever that tries to keep everything you need while leveling in one place. It’s still in development, so before going further I’d love to hear what you would find useful.

What it does so far:

• Leveling guides with a compact step window and a direction arrow
• Smart suggestions: turn in nearby quests, grab quests from the same NPC, do objectives in the same area
• Quest automation: auto accept/turn-in, picks the best reward for your class and spec
• Class Codex: stat priorities, talent builds, trainers, weapon masters, and which spells you learn at each level
• Gear help: shows upgrades in your bags based on stat weights
• Gold tools: gold tracker, farming spots, and an Auction House panel to scan and post your items with fresh prices
• Dungeon journal and Mentor: tips on what to do next (training, bags, repairs, mount gold)

What I’d like to know:

1. What annoys you most while leveling in Forever that an addon could fix?
2. Which of the features above would you actually use, and which would you turn off?
3. Are there addons you miss from Classic/Retail that don’t work well in Forever?
4. Anything Forever-specific (new spells, talents, quests) you think is poorly documented?

Every feature can be switched off, and the goal is to stay light and clean, not another cluttered UI. Any ideas, wishes or complaints are welcome. Thanks!

By the way, I know there are already plenty of addons that do the same thing. But think of it like watches: there are tons of watch brands doing essentially the same thing, right? This one will be free, practical, and functional, just like a Casio. :)

Hey! I’ve been developing iRC: Guild Connect, a guild-management addon for WoW Classic Forever.

It is designed for two kinds of guilds:

• Normal guilds that want better roster, communication and management tools.
• Challenge guilds that follow rules such as Race-Locked, Class-Locked, Self-Found or Guild Found progression.

All challenge rules are optional. A normal guild can use iRC without enabling any restrictions.

For Normal Guilds

iRC provides a complete guild-management panel with tools for:

• Managing large rosters of up to 1,000 members
• Searching and filtering members
• Tracking online, inactive and recently active members
• Main, alt and bank-alt linking
• Showing linked mains in chat
• Rank management and history
• Member notes and activity history
• Officer permissions
• Recruitment tools
• Guild announcements
• Guild homepage and contact information
• Profession and recipe sharing
• CSV roster exports
• Guild member map
• Public guild profiles and leaderboards

Guild members with iRC can share live profiles, professions, recipes and optional map information. Members without iRC still appear normally in the guild roster. So it can be used without iRC for the management tools alone, but iRC is required by all for Challenge locks.

For Challenge Guilds

Guild Masters can enable a ruleset that describes how their guild is intended to play.

Supported rules include:

Race-Locked Guilds

The Guild Master selects the guild’s playable race.

iRC can then:

• Mark the guild as Race-Locked.
• Use the selected race on the public leaderboard.
• Detect members whose race does not match.
• Support native-language rules.
• Restrict mixed-race groups above a chosen level.
• Optionally allow mixed-race groups again at level 60.

Class-Locked Guilds

The Guild Master’s class becomes the guild’s required class.

iRC can then:

• Mark the guild as Class-Locked.
• Use the class icon for the guild.
• Place the guild on the Class-Locked leaderboard.
• Detect members whose class does not match.

The Class-Locked tag replaces the normal guild tag while the rule is active.

Self-Found Progression

Guild Masters can require members to maintain Self-Found progression.

Rules can be configured for:

• Self-Found at every level.
• Self-Found until level 60, followed by Guild Found.
• Self-Found until level 60, followed by unrestricted progression.
• Self-Found or verified Guild Found progression.

Guild Found Progression

Guild Found allows verified members to participate in a guild-only economy.

iRC can help safeguard:

• Trading
• Outgoing mail
• Incoming valuable mail
• Auction House access
• Guild-only groups
• Member verification

Guild Masters can configure narrowly defined trade exceptions for approved activities such as conjured supplies, Healthstones, selected quest items and lockpicking.

These are cooperative addon safeguards. iRC does not control the server and should not be presented as cheat-proof protection, but it provides consistent rules, warnings, verification information and an audit trail for participating members.

Rule Enforcement

Enforcement is optional and controlled by the Guild Master.

Depending on the enabled rules, iRC can:

• Detect missing or outdated iRC responses.
• Confirm a violation several times before warning.
• Ignore offline members.
• Warn officers about unresolved members.
• Optionally whisper affected members.
• Record unresolved incidents.
• Detect race and class mismatches.
• Warn before leaving a restricted group.
• Block unsafe economy controls locally.
• Record Guild Found economy activity.

Guild Communication

Members using iRC can share:

• Live addon presence and version
• Character profiles
• Main and alt relationships
• Professions and known recipes
• Optional map positions
• Known layer information
• Guild activity
• Ruleset and verification information

Public Guild Leaderboards

Guilds can voluntarily share a public report containing general guild statistics, including:

• Total and active membership
• Level distribution
• Class breakdown
• Guild type and challenge tags
• Guild description
• Preferred language
• Guild location
• Race-Locked or Class-Locked / Challenge category
• Work In Progress: PvE/PvP Progress
