If they are, I hope Blizzard will be wary of it, and won't be scared to ban it, if it comes to it. I just hope no 'Classic-breaking' addon will be developed or made. Really if they allow only the level of customization that's in current retail I think that'll be good enough. You might be interested in having a peek at this topic from last year in which we discussed quest helpers, and this old topic about addons in general from last year as well.Īs long as I can get a working ElvUI or equivalent, something like Clique (so I don't need mouseover macros), and some sort of blessing assignment addon I'll be good. We don't really know what their stance is at the moment sadly but it's an interesting topic of discussion for us in the meantime. They may however draw a line at things like demarcating exactly where mobs/quest items will be found on the minimap/worldmap because this kind of hyper accurate data did not exist around the time of vanilla. They could for example allow addons that simply provide comments from wowhead, or coordinates/directional arrow systems like TomTom, because these did exist back in vanilla.

So we don't even know to what extent Blizzard will allow quest helpers as they exist on current retail versions of the game. If making things more efficient enhances their enjoyment of the game then let it be! Personally I will be trying my best to follow quest text and directions such as 'South West of Tarren Mill' because it's what I will enjoy.īlizzard have before, and forgive me for not being able to find the post at this time, said that they may consider removing addons that they do not consider 'vanilla-like'. How do I feel about people using in-game addons to help them questing? I don't really care. Certainly not at the beginning of their journeys. It's just that since it was so many people's first experience with WoW they didn't know stuff like that was out there and a lot of people therefore didn't get addons or website help in the end.

All the tools existed back then for anyone who went looking for them.
