ElderCoin

ElderCoin (/ec) is a lightweight, minimalist tracker for the Lunar Festival in World of Warcraft Classic Era.

The addon is designed specifically to track which of the 50 Elders your character has already visited to obtain a Coin of Ancestry and which ones remain. It provides a simple, hard-coded sequence to assist in navigating the world.

Features

Status Tracking: Uses internal game IDs to accurately display whether an Elder's quest is Open (Red) or Done (Green).
Static Pathing: Includes a hard-coded geographic sequence (North-to-South) to help guide your travel.
Completion Counter: A real-time "Completed: X/50" tally is displayed in the window header to track overall progress.
Interactive List: Support for manual sorting by Name, Zone, or Status to quickly find specific Elders.
Data Verification Tool: Built-in scanner that prints Quest IDs to your chat window when interacting with Elders, ensuring compatibility with current 2026 event data.

Commands

/ec - Toggles the ElderCoin Tracker window.

Installation

Download the ElderCoin folder.
Move the folder into your World of Warcraft directory: _classic_era_/Interface/AddOns/.
Ensure the folder name is exactly ElderCoin.
Log into World of Warcraft and type /ec.

2026 Data Verification

Because Quest IDs for seasonal events can shift, ElderCoin includes a built-in ID Detector. When you interact with an Elder NPC, the addon prints the Quest ID to your chat.

If you find an ID that differs from the current list, you can manually update the qID in the ElderCoin.Data table within ElderCoin.lua.

Project Status (MVP)

This version (v1.0.0) represents the Minimum Viable Product. It uses a fixed data table verified for the 2026 season. There are no plans to expand this into a dynamic routing or multi-event addon; it is purpose-built for the 50-Elder circuit.
