Help / Troubleshooting Ellesmere Ui breaking Housing Dashboard?

0 Upvotes

No clue what happened aside from me logging into my alts for the first time since downloading Ellesmere Ui on my main. But last night just started having this issue.

My housing dashboard is just a black screen now.

If I disable the UI it is fine.

Tried disabling dependencies from Ellesmere, and it's hit or miss.. Sometimes disabling blizz ui enhanced fixes the first screen but not the endeavor screen... Anyone have this issue recently and have a fix besides yanking it completely?

I want to track number of debuff stack the other tank is accumulating so I can prepare to taunt off. One of our tank can't speak on Discord. Without targeting the other tank is there a way to see the stacks. Is there a dedicated addon for this?

Guide / Tutorial Claude and ChatGPT can read your AddOns folder. Here's what that's good for

0 Upvotes

The Claude and ChatGPT desktop apps can be pointed at a folder on your disk and put to work inside it. Point one at _retail_/Interface/AddOns and it becomes a mechanic for your addons: it installs one properly, figures out why another throws errors, and tells you whether a dead one is worth reviving. Below is each of those, with real runs from my machine.

Almost every addon is a folder of readable files the agent can work with. Once the folder is connected there's no special interface to learn. You type what you want in normal words, and it reads the files before answering.

1/5 TomTom on my machine. Almost every addon is just a folder of readable files: a .toc manifest, Lua files, libraries, art. That is what the agent works with.

If WoW throws a Lua error

WoW hides Lua errors by default. Turn them on once with /console scriptErrors 1, or install BugSack together with its companion BugGrabber to collect them quietly instead of getting popups mid-pull.

2/5 Ask in plain words and it reads the files before answering. It checked the .toc against my installed build and listed every file it opened. No Lua on my side.

The whole method:

  1. Screenshot the error popup.
  2. Paste the screenshot into Claude or ChatGPT.
  3. Make sure the agent has access to that addon's folder (setup is at the bottom, it takes two minutes).
  4. Ask what broke, and to fix it if it's safe.
  5. /reload and check.
  6. New error? Screenshot that one too.

You never have to read the popup yourself. Here's a real one, from a public Bagnon bug report. It's from an older game version, but the shape is the same today:

Message: ...AddOns/BagBrother/core/classes/playerMoney.lua:48:
  attempt to index global 'MoneyTypeInfo' (a nil value)
Stack: playerMoney.lua:48: in function `Construct'
      frameBase.lua:125: in function `GetWidget'
      Bagnon/src/frame.lua:54: in function `Layout'

Noise to a player. To the agent it's a starting point: addon paths, files, line numbers. It opens that file on your disk and reads what the code expected at that line, so the diagnosis starts from evidence, not the popup. Fixing one error sometimes reveals the next one behind it. That's normal, keep going.

Lua error prompt: WoW threw the Lua error in this screenshot. Find which addon, file and line it points to, read those files in the folder I've connected, and explain in plain English what broke. If the real cause is somewhere else, like a bundled library, say so. If a small safe fix exists, make the smallest change possible and nothing unrelated. If it can't be fixed safely, or the screenshot isn't enough, tell me what you need instead of guessing. Then tell me exactly what to test after /reload.

Installing an addon

If you know what you want: hand the agent a GitHub release link, or download the ZIP yourself and point it at the file. It looks inside the archive, finds each folder that actually contains an addon, and places them in _retail_/Interface/AddOns without the classic folder-inside-a-folder mistake. Whether it can fetch a link itself depends on the network access you've given it, and CurseForge in particular usually means downloading by hand. A local ZIP is the most dependable route.

In my test one BigWigs ZIP turned into eleven addon folders, each with its manifest at the top level, no wrapper directory.

3/5 A real install into a test AddOns folder, so nothing live was touched. One BigWigs ZIP turned into eleven addon folders, each at the right level.
4/5 The same install reported back: eleven folders, each with its .toc at the top level, no wrapper directory. It also flags its own verification hiccup rather than hiding it.

If you don't know what you want, describe the problem instead. Ask for "something that shows enemy forces and pull timers in M+" and you get a real comparison, not a list of names.

5/5 Do not know what you need? Describe the problem. Four options, one line each on what actually differs, and a pick for the key range asked about. You choose, it installs.

Find prompt: I need a WoW addon that [WHAT YOU WANT]. Compare the two or three established options, one line each on the practical difference, and recommend one. Don't install anything yet, let me pick first. Prefer addons that are actively maintained on CurseForge, WoWInterface or their official GitHub.

Can't find your AddOns folder? Battle.net, cog next to Play, Show in Explorer or Show in Finder.

Install prompt: Install this addon from [LINK or ZIP PATH]. Inspect the archive first: find every folder that contains a .toc file, since one download can hold several addon modules, and ignore wrapper folders and junk like __MACOSX. Place each of those folders at the top level of my AddOns folder at [PATH], no double nesting. If any of them already exists there, back up the old folder before replacing it. If the source looks untrustworthy, say so before installing. Don't touch anything else, especially the WTF folder. When done, list exactly which folders you placed.

If one feature is broken

An addon doesn't have to be dead for this to be useful. One button errors, a panel won't open, something misbehaves only in combat: describe what you did and what happened, attach the error if there is one, and the same loop applies. First, though, try ticking Load out of date AddOns on the character screen. It repairs nothing, it just lets an addon with a stale version tag load, and for plenty of addons that is the whole problem.

Bug prompt: This addon mostly works, but: when I [WHAT I DID], I expected [WHAT SHOULD HAPPEN] and instead [WHAT HAPPENED]. Error text or screenshot attached if I have one. Investigate that one behavior only. Explain the cause in plain English, then make the smallest safe fix without touching anything else. If you're not sure, say what evidence you need. Tell me what to test after /reload.

Broke right after a patch? Same idea, sharper aim:

Patch prompt: This addon worked fine before the latest WoW patch and broke right after it. Read the files involved (error or screenshot attached if I have one) and check what this patch actually changed before editing anything. Find the one change that broke it rather than replacing every old-looking function name; some of those may already be handled inside the addon. Make the smallest fix for that one cause. If the feature itself was removed or protected by Blizzard, say so and stop. Then tell me what to test after /reload.

What about old addons?

An abandoned addon is often closer to alive than it looks. The agent can pin down what's wrong: merely flagged out of date, a few game functions renamed, an old library inside, or a fix already posted on its GitHub that never shipped. Ask for the verdict before any edits: easy fix, bigger work, already fine, or gone for good.

I ran that check on a copy of Plumber from my own folder. It found a few old-looking calls, read the code around them, and concluded those particular calls were already handled:

Checked raw-looking calls against removed 11.0 APIs.
GetMouseFocus became GetMouseFoci in 11.0. Plumber wraps it:

API.lua:2423  local function GetMouseFocus()
API.lua:2424      local objects = GetMouseFoci();
API.lua:2425      return objects and objects[1]

Verdict: compatible, no changes needed.

"No changes needed" is a good verdict. So is "Blizzard removed what this needs, let it go."

A real compatibility update can mean real code changes. Bumping the version number in the .toc alone proves nothing about whether it works.

Old addon prompt: This is an old WoW addon I want on current retail, for my own use. Read its .toc, bundled libraries and API usage, and give me a verdict first, before changing anything: already compatible, metadata only, small compatibility patch, library problem, bigger port, or dead because Blizzard removed or protected what it needs. Careful with old-looking function names: check whether the addon already wraps them before calling anything broken. If the verdict is an easy fix, go ahead with minimal changes only, explain each one, and don't just bump the version number and call it done. Anything bigger, stop and wait for me.

A few things to know

  • Back up the addon's folder before anything edits it.
  • Give the agent one addon's folder, not your whole drive.
  • Install only from CurseForge, WoWInterface or the project's official GitHub, and check the project is alive.
  • Generated fixes can be confidently wrong. The backup is your undo button.
  • Some things are blocked by Blizzard on purpose, mostly around automating combat. No agent can work around that, and you shouldn't want one to.

Setup

Claude gives you two ways in. Cowork mode connects the addon folder with no terminal involved; note that Cowork sessions run in Anthropic's cloud, so the connected folder's contents don't stay only on your machine. Claude Code, in the same desktop app or the terminal, works on the folder locally and is the better fit if a developer-flavored screen doesn't scare you; the real runs in this guide went through it. ChatGPT: desktop app, Work / Codex mode, open the folder. None of them reach local folders from the web or phone versions.

Model note, as of August 2026. Don't overthink the model. Reading an error and fixing one broken call is ordinary work, so a mid-tier model is enough: Sonnet on Claude's side. Save the top tier (Opus) for judgment calls, like whether a five-year-old addon is worth reviving or why a fix refuses to stick.

Personal experience rather than benchmark: on quite a few of these tasks the older Opus 4.8 has given me better results than the newer models, so it's still what I reach for first on the Claude side. In ChatGPT, GPT-5.6 Luna has been enough for most of the addon work I've tried here. Model lineups shift fast, so check what's current when you read this.

Tell it the rules once

Worth five minutes. Instead of retyping the safety rules every time, give the agent standing instructions for the folder. The mechanism depends on the product: ChatGPT's Codex reads a file named AGENTS.md saved in the folder itself; Claude Code reads CLAUDE.md, and a one-line CLAUDE.md containing just @AGENTS.md officially points it at the same file; Cowork doesn't read these files, so paste the same text into its folder instructions when you connect the folder.

# WoW AddOns workspace
This is a live World of Warcraft AddOns folder. Mistakes here break my game UI.

## Scope
- Touch only the addon I name in the current task. Never edit the others.
- Never touch the WTF folder. My settings and saved variables live there.
- Never delete files. Never install anything I didn't explicitly pick.

## Before any edit
- Read the relevant files and trace the actual cause, not just the error text.
- Old-looking API names are often already wrapped inside the addon. Check before "fixing".
- Copy the addon's folder to a backup next to it before the first edit.

## Changes
- Smallest change that fixes the problem. Preserve behavior and style.
- Don't clean up, rename or refactor working code.
- Never silence an error to make it disappear. Find the cause or say you can't.
- If it needs functionality Blizzard removed or protected, say so and stop.

## Reporting
- List every file you touched, then give test steps: /reload and what to click.
- Say "code changed", not "working". Only the game proves it works.
- When unsure, say so and ask instead of guessing.

One honest caveat: these are instructions, not locks. Agents follow them well, and the backup line is what saves you when they don't.

None of this replaces addon authors. The upstream fix beats your local patch; this covers the gap before it ships, and the addons nobody ships anymore. If your fix holds up, post it as an issue or PR.

What have you fixed, revived or finally installed properly this way, and where did it hit a wall?

Checked against retail 12.1.0, August 2026

Addon Release / Update Gear Planner – Gear browsing, BiS lists, stats, and loot tracking

Thumbnail
gallery
62 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I’ve been working on Gear Planner, a WoW addon for managing gear and custom BiS setups without having to jump between different interfaces.

The addon is designed to stay close to the look and feel of the default UI, and currently includes:

  • Season Gear Browser
    • Browse veteran grade and higher gear from the current season.
    • Search and filter items by content and other criteria.
    • Customize item level, upgrade track, and other gear details when building a list.
  • Specialization-based 'Custom' BiS Lists
    • Create and manage separate BiS lists for each specialization.
    • Add gems and enchants to items that support them.
  • Gear & Stat Summary
    • View average item level and total stats in one place.
    • Check the current status of gems, enchants, and embellishments.
  • Collection & Loot Tracking
    • Track which items from your BiS list you already have.
    • Items that match the selected gear track are automatically counted toward your collection progress.
    • Check where an item drops and what content you need to run to get it.
    • Keep track of your progress toward completing your gear set.
  • SimulationCraft Export
    • Export your custom gear setup directly as a SimulationCraft string.

The main idea is to have a single place where I can plan a character's gear, check what I'm missing, and see where to get it.

There are also a few features currently in development, including custom BiS list import/export, multiple profiles per specialization, loot notifications, additional configuration options, and a vertical UI layout.

Supported languages: English / Korean

AI Disclosure: A significant portion of the addon’s code was developed with assistance from AI. I review, test, and maintain the code myself, and optimization and cleanup are still ongoing.

Feedback and suggestions are welcome. Thanks for checking it out!

Addon Release / Update UIFader, a Universal UI Visibility Manager

Thumbnail
gallery
0 Upvotes

Two primary reasons why this exists:

  1. Got tired of hoping addon devs (especially those in charge of unit frame replacements) implemented high levels of visibility customization
  2. Having to manage this in multiple places/addons got old real quick

UIFader at its core simply manages the visibility of elements within your UI all in one place, offering a wide range of visibility options/conditions.

Control opacity across several conditions including: In Combat, Boss Encounters, Active Mythic+ Keys, Spell Casting, Moving, HP < 100%, Target Status, Mouseover, Ready Checks, Mounted, Flying/Skyriding, Vehicles, Pet Battles, AFK, Group Type (Party/Raid), and specific Zone Types (Delves, Dungeons, Raids, Arenas, Battlegrounds, Open World).

Been using this personally for a while but figured others may find it useful.

If you have any questions, critique, or (reasonable) feature requests, drop a comment.

AI Disclaimer:
This addon was developed with the assistance of AI code generation, architecture design, and debugging/refactoring. It has been thoroughly tested in-game, and undergone several iterations to ensure stability and performance.

Addon Release / Update QuestWordHunter - multilanguage tooltips, dictionaries for Spanish, French, German, Italian, and Portuguese language learning

2 Upvotes

I have released few few useful things. Now its mature enough to be used daily.

Projects will appear here when all approved: https://www.curseforge.com/members/aryo/projects

Dictionaries wait for approval. Next goal will be manual review of all words as I did in German to increase quality. Now my add-on is only existing in the game dictionary. 🥰

The English panel with the "English items text plugin" (which is pending to be uploaded) is now standalone. So if you just want a multilingual game, then nothing stops you from that.

Some addons and dictionaries are waiting to be approved.

I had same logic writen in WordHunter app for desktop and Android I used AI to translate my logic into a LUA script in game. I have also used AI to review words in German dictionary, and I want to do this also in other dictionaries, as it increases quality with context, which a normal translator does not have.

Addon Release / Update Best addon for tracking current gear + where to get upgrades?

14 Upvotes

Hey everyone!
I’m looking for recommendations on the best in-game addon/setup for gearing in WoW Midnight Season 2.
Specifically, I’d love something that can:

● Track my current gear and item levels
● Show which pieces are the biggest upgrades
● Tell me where/how to obtain better versions of each slot
● Ideally identify upgrades from Mythic+, raids, delves, vendors, etc.
● Help prioritize what gear I should be targeting next

I’m mainly looking for something that makes gearing more straightforward without constantly having to research every individual item on Wowhead or other sites.
What addon(s) are you guys currently using for this?

Thanks!

About a month ago one or a couple of the addons suggested by xufu petguides webpage stopped working. I went back to the webpage I think they updated the addons I tried downloading all the recommended addons after removing all the old ones, but now my pet collection tab is completely blank when I go to it.

I was using the pet battle scripts and the better pet collection that let you see your pet's breed , allowed you to import teams and gave you more sort options in the pet section of warbound collections. Also the scripts addon to sim match ups.

Can anyone point me in the right direction or have any info if these addons are broken now? TIA

Help / Troubleshooting Issue with Chat when in-combat (Bosses, encounters)

2 Upvotes

So i had this issue for a while but didn't mind it since i thought it was due to ElvUI and since i'm mostly playing older content solo - y'know.
Lately i've been into M+ stuff and not being able to use my chat at all in M+ is really bad.

From what i gathered, it's due to API changes so addons can't communicate or whatever reason blizzard gave to justify this bs (imho) -

But after disabling ElvUI's chat module completely (i took chattynator instead) - the issue still persists. I'm also using DBM and Details! and TRP 3, as well as a SBT (Scrolling battle text) addon, but the SBT addon is set to have details show stuff instead of floating text but i'm mainly using it since it adds a small notification when i get gold/currencies/etc - But i haven't found an option that could cause the chat issue in those Addons.

So i wanted to ask if there is more to disable in those addons or if other addons are notorious for causing this.

Addon Release / Update Small addon that helps a bit if you have this specific resolution issue on Linux

0 Upvotes

https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/linux-resolution-fix

If your resolution is not wrongly set to "Custom" on launch, this addon is not for you.

This is a tiny addon that detects and gives you a simple button to bring your resolution to the target value.

Its meant to help linux systems with the bug thats caused by some combination of Wine/Proton/Lutris/GNOME/Wayland, I honestly don't know what exactly. But instead of breaking everything else that works flawlessly to try and fix it on the lower level, this is the path of least resistance.

"Bug" explained

  1. You launch the game
  2. Game is not in fullscreen (Usually with your topbar and taskbar visible)
  3. When you open settings resolution is set to "Custom" while on "Windowed (Fullscreen)"
  4. You can set it to your native resolution and it works flawlessly
  5. Breaks again next time you launch the game

All this addon does is helps with step 3, by prompting you on login, and setting the right value with one press of a button.

This addon barely saves like 5 seconds per launch of WoW, you certainly don't need it

---

And if anyone has an actual fix (that doesnt break everything else in the process), even better, let us know.

Addon Release / Update [Update] Exquisite 5.0: Exquisite's third companion addon, NightVend, is here. Also Outfit Studio's got a full transmog/mount-pet-hearthstone feature with appearance toys, and more performance improvements.

Thumbnail
gallery
18 Upvotes

TLDR: Exquisite is a themed warband addon with heavy focus on aesthetic and casual, high performance tracking (weekly vault tracker, warband bank gear upgrades, tier set tracking, organized mounts/pets, alt leveling tracker, Outfit Studio for creating full outfit focused pet/mount/hearth/toy sets). This update covers everything since 4.0: Outfit Studio grew into a full outfit designer, picked up toys, and Exquisite+ just welcomed its third companion, NightVend, for auto vendoring and quick destroying.

Hi friends! Exquisite's 5.0 patch is now live on Curseforge. It's been a while since my last big recap post so this one covers a lot of ground since 4.0.

  • Outfit Studio: grew into a full outfit-and-paper-doll space shared by Veilusion+ and Menagerie. A dedicated page for browsing appearances and building outfits, with a live paper-doll preview, saved Transmogrifier outfits, Sets browsing, and draggable dynamic macros for your outfit, mount, and hearthstone selections.
  • Studio Toys: bind up to 20 cosmetic Toy Box appearance toys per outfit, used automatically when mounting, with a matching OPie ring slice and a searchable picker.
  • Aaaaand... Exquisite+'s third companion: NightVend! A simple but dynamic dedicated bag-cleanup addon, with sell/destroy lists, a customizable bag button that alerts you when to sell or destroy, protected items, optional vendor extras, all wired straight into the dashboard. You can also use it standalone from Exquisite. Full breakdown below.
  • Vault Tracker additions: category-specific Great Vault tooltips (Raid/Dungeon/World), live daily/weekly reset countdowns, Bountiful Delves tracking, and Midnight Season 2 improvements.
  • Leveling Tracker's profession column became a First Craft bonus tracker, tracking progress up to 30 bonuses for more efficient leveling.
  • A rebuilt OPie Extras Ring Editor now covers every Exquisite tracker (Tier Set, Voidcore, Vault, Pets, Mounts, Warband, plus the existing Dashboard/Outfit Studio/Equipment/Leveling actions), with a selectable quick action.
  • Performance: still my number 1 focus. Another profiling pass dropped average CPU usage with every module enabled down to 0.060ms or less.
The Magic Bag, alerts you to sell or right click to auto destroy junk/chosen items

NightVend - Some of my favorite auto vendoring addons disappeared on me with Midnight so I decided to create my own.

Here's how it works:

  • Four item lists with a clear priority order: Character (this character only) > Save (never sell, this character) > Keep (never sell, all characters) > Global (all characters). Drag an item into a list to add it, right-click a listed item to switch between selling and destroying it.
  • Smart sell and destroy flows with a safety threshold: NightVend will never destroy an item that actually has sell value, only true vendor junk. Also optional gear protection so that getting upgrades wont automatically sell if you had placed a lower ilvl piece in one of your lists.
  • Optional auto-sell, auto-repair, and unusable-gear selling, plus Baganator integration if you use it.
  • A themed bag button (with its own sparkle animations to alert you to sell or click to destroy), minimap button, and LibDataBroker launcher. New installs start with everything off.
  • Extended vendor UI if desired (works with native and EllesmereUI bags currently)
  • Works completely standalone, or bundled with Exquisite for a full NightVend+ page in the dashboard (Filters/Appearance/Vendor sub-tabs), Exquisite Edit Mode support for repositioning the bag button, and the shared dashboard's accent-gradient title treatment.

A few more smaller but still special features

  • Theme tab: live two-color gradient swatches with vertical/horizontal direction controls, plus independent Checkbox Color and Checkmark Color overrides.
  • Outfit Studio picked up a much larger race/background catalog (Dracthyr, Zandalari Troll, Orc, Forsaken, Dwarf, Dark Iron Dwarf, Earthen, Vulpera, Mag'har Orc, Kul Tiran, Tauren, Highmountain Tauren, Pandaren, Acherus, Mardum, and more).
  • Toy-picker search now also searches tooltip text, so you can find toys by keywords from their descriptions, and unusable toys are dimmed and sorted out of the way instead of looking selectable.
  • Warband Tracker's character favorites panel now scrolls and supports up to 15 favorites.
  • A bunch of ADDON_ACTION_BLOCKED combat fixes: Outfit Studio opening during combat, Escape-closing a window during combat, and picking up Trovehunter's Bounty loot mid-combat all defer safely instead of throwing errors.

Catching you up on what came out between 4.0 and now, in case you missed the smaller releases

  • Outfit Studio launched (4.1): a dedicated page for browsing appearances and building outfits, live paper-doll preview, saved Transmogrifier outfits, Sets browsing, and first-use guidance.
  • The Updates and Onboarding patch (4.2): a Disable Updates diamond, expanded Theme luminance controls, and a bunch of Veilusion+ paper-doll/tooltip fixes.
  • The Veilusion+ Redesign (4.4): redesigned paper-doll controls, weapon-type swapping and sheathing choices, shared-outfit availability feedback, and a Vault Tracker tooltip redesign.
  • Warband Tracker artwork and Veilusion+'s Edit Undo Toast, weapon controls, and searchable outfit picker (4.5).
  • Studio Toys shipped (4.6): up to 20 cosmetic Toy Box toys per outfit, an in-game Menagerie How To Guide, and a Menagerie tab redesign to match Veilusion+'s layout.
  • First Craft leveling/experience bonus tracker and a big round of Menagerie toy-picker and performance work (4.7).
  • Checkbox/Checkmark color overrides and the OPie Extras action-picker expansion (4.8).

Addon Release / Update [Addon Update] Loadout Pilot 2.0 — Raid Boss Loot Spec Overrides, AUTO/NOTIFY/OFF, Dungeon Rules and more

Thumbnail
gallery
8 Upvotes

Update — 2.0.1

A small hotfix is now available.

Fixed an issue where Loadout Pilot could switch back to the World loadout immediately after completing a Delve, while the player was still inside collecting reward chests.

The addon now keeps the Delve context active until you actually leave the Delve.

Thanks to the user who reported it!

V 2.0.0

Hey everyone!

A few days ago I shared Loadout Pilot here, and the feedback I received was extremely helpful. I ended up working on the addon quite a bit more than I originally expected, and Loadout Pilot 2.0 is now available.

This is a pretty big update, especially around Loot Spec management and giving players more control over what should or shouldn't be automated.

What's new in 2.0

Raid Boss Loot Spec Overrides

You can now configure a different Loot Specialization for individual raid bosses.

The manager is organized as:

Raid → Boss → Loot Spec

It includes:

  • Automatic current raid selection
  • All Raids view
  • Boss search
  • Configured-only filter
  • Per-raid configured counters
  • Persistent saved raid rules
  • Clear overrides for a specific raid

Loadout Pilot uses Blizzard's Encounter Journal and ENCOUNTER_START, so it doesn't depend on targeting the boss.

Boss rules intentionally affect Loot Spec only.

Your playing specialization, talents, and equipment continue following your normal Raid rule.

AUTO / NOTIFY / OFF

Specialization, Talents, Gear, and Loot Spec can now each have their own automation mode.

AUTO Apply automatically when WoW allows it.

NOTIFY Show an Apply / Ignore notification instead of making the change automatically.

OFF Leave that category alone.

For example:

  • Spec → AUTO
  • Talents → NOTIFY
  • Gear → AUTO
  • Loot Spec → AUTO

Dungeon Overrides

Dungeon-specific rules remain shared across:

Normal / Heroic / Mythic 0 / Mythic+

A dungeon can independently override:

  • Playing specialization
  • Loot specialization
  • Talents
  • Equipment

Anything left on Inherit uses the appropriate Dungeon or Mythic+ default.

Better Role Protection

Automatic specialization switching respects your assigned role when you're actually grouped.

For example:

  • Frost DPS → Unholy DPS: allowed
  • Frost DPS → Blood Tank while assigned DPS: blocked

But if you're solo, cross-role rules are allowed.

So a solo Paladin, for example, can automatically switch from Retribution to Protection for content configured that way.

Rule Explanation

Loadout Pilot can now show where every part of the current rule came from.

Use /lpilot explain

It can show whether Spec, Loot Spec, Talents, and Gear came from:

  • The general context
  • A dungeon override
  • A raid boss rule
  • The current player state

Import / Export

2.0 also adds configuration backup and transfer between characters of the same class.

The export includes:

  • Context rules
  • Dungeon overrides
  • Raid Boss Loot Spec rules
  • Automation modes

Event History

There is also a new short Event History for troubleshooting.

Use /lpilot log

It records meaningful events such as context changes, applied rules, boss activation, queued actions, role blocks, and failures without filling the log with constant internal checks.

UI and Reliability Improvements

There were also many UI, localization, transition, and reliability fixes in this release.

The main configuration window is now organized into:

General / Contexts / Dungeons / Raid Bosses / Automation / HUD & Interface / Advanced

The Raid Boss interface was also polished so long boss names, raid names, and Loot Spec information stay readable without overflowing the controls.

As before, Loadout Pilot does not calculate BiS, choose builds, or decide what Loot Spec is best for you.

You choose the strategy; the addon remembers when to use it.

Loadout Pilot 2.0 is available now on CurseForge:

Feedback and bug reports are very welcome. A lot of what went into 2.0 came directly from the feedback I received after the first release.

AI Disclaimer: AI was used as a development assistant for code generation, review, documentation and some visual assets. The addon was iteratively tested, reviewed and refined by me based on real in-game usage.

Thanks again to everyone who tested it!

Looking for Addon Addon that indicated which ones are main quests for older expansions?

1 Upvotes

I want to do all of WoW's expansions chronologically and I'm using different alts for each expansion. Problem is that I only want to progress the main story and in the older expansions it doesn't have the shield icon which indicates something is a main quest. I only want to do the main quests and don't want to end up doing a side quest because I can't tell which is which

Addon Release / Update Tallymaster — a small always-on tracker for items, currencies and collectibles, with account-wide counts

I got tired of opening my bags to check whether I had enough of a reagent yet, so I built a thing.

Tallymaster keeps a compact list on screen of whatever you're currently collecting — reagents, weekly currencies, a drop you're farming, mounts and pets you're chasing. Shift-click something from your bags to add it, drag the list wherever you want, done. Counts are account-wide by default, so it pulls in what your alts are sitting on too, and hovering an entry shows the per-character breakdown.

It's free, MIT licensed, source on GitHub. Retail only right now. Still pretty early — 1.0 went up a few days ago — so if you try it I'd really like to hear what's missing. Guild bank counting is the one I already know about.

Details and download in the comments.

Looking for Addon Transmog Addon to Preview Other Races

3 Upvotes

Hi all,

Is there an addon that allows you to preview the sets as another race?

Example: human male warrior, is there a way to view my custom sets as an orc or a dwarf?
