Description

DropDamnit
Hunt the drop. Count the kills. Smash.
Know which NPC drops the piece. Track every kill until it finally falls. Celebrate the Smash.
DropDamnit is a standalone Midnight addon for farming a specific NPC drop — Journal boss loot plus curated Classic / Wrath dungeon trash BoEs. Pick the item, farm the right creature, watch the kill counter tick, and get a clear Smash when the loot lands.
No other addon required. CashCow is optional for richer AH prices (and preferred for group loot races). Community Drop % is never invented — only published after enough real samples on dropdamnit.com.

What the addon does (in WoW)
- Hub —
/ddor/dropdamnit: Find item / NPC, BoE-only filter, loot paperdoll, Worth farming, Zone / Hunts (KILL COUNTER), Recent Smashes, bottom bar (Copy sync / Paste rates / Tutorial / Invite Race / Race Stats) - Catalog — Encounter Journal farm loot + curated Classic & Wrath dungeon trash BoEs (named droppers). Live name / ilvl / icon from the client. Not every outdoor BoE in the game — outdoor rares come later.
- Always-on tracking — kill counter, zone watch, and community queue stay on. No Pause / Zone OFF / Sync OFF. Leave a dungeon anytime; tallies stay until you paste a site receipt.
- Kill credit (Midnight-safe) — uses death / target / nameplate / loot-window paths. Does not scrape the Combat Log. Pets never count as farm NPCs; a pet killing a mob still credits the mob.
- Correct NPC only — community and hunt tallies attach to the matched dropper id/name. Never whole-instance trash pools. Hub
*rows = killed something outside the catalog BoE list (won’t sync). - Smash — Active Hunt: Smash when your hunted item is received. Auto Smash: BoE / sellable only. History shows kills-to-drop.
- Dungeon bind — Midnight often hides NPC name/GUID inside instances. Target the dropper → Hunt, or
/dd bind, so tallies and Copy sync stay accurate. - Loot Race — party/raid players with DropDamnit compete for most AH-valuable BoE loot. Invite → Join → each own instance → leave posts score → Race Stats shows every racer’s gold board and announces the winner. Peer checks reject non-BoE and inflated claims. CashCow same-day prices preferred.
- Tutorial — hub Tutorial button,
/dd tutorial, first-load tip. Matching howto on dropdamnit.com. - Community sync — anonymous kill / drop / gap tallies. Copy sync does not clear the queue; site Submit returns a receipt; Paste rates / Apply clears that export and refreshes %.
Sister project: GearSmasher can show DropDamnit community Drop % on Find Upgrades when samples pass the site gate.
60-second start — personal farm
- Install → enable at character select → log in →
/reload /dd→ type an item in Find item / NPC → Search → click a result- Or open NPC Here in the zone / instance → pick the NPC → click a paperdoll drop → Hunt
- In a dungeon: target that dropper →
/dd bindif names look wrong or the counter stays empty - Keep the mob targeted while farming — KILL COUNTER rises; loot the drop → Smash

Community Drop % (dropdamnit.com)
- Farm catalog BoE droppers (queue is always on)
- Hub → Copy sync → Ctrl+C (queue kept)
- dropdamnit.com → Paste sync → Submit

- When everyone is out → anyone clicks Race Stats

Honest limits
- Catalog = Journal bosses + curated Classic / Wrath dungeon trash BoEs — not every BoE NPC in the game
- Outdoor world rares are planned later
- Inside secret Midnight instances, correct attribution needs Hunt or
/dd bindwhen names stay hidden - Copy sync only queues catalog BoE dropper matches — hub can show kills while Copy is empty if you farmed non-catalog trash or unbound secret deaths
- Drop % is never invented; community numbers need real samples on the site
