Everscribe

Leave your mark on Azeroth.

Everscribe turns your world map into a living notebook. Pin the rare that keeps escaping you, draw the route to that hidden chest, time every respawn and sketch the layout of dungeons that never had a map. Then share it all with your group, your guild or the whole Discord in one click.

For World of Warcraft Retail (Midnight) and World of Warcraft: Forever. One download works in both.

Getting started

1. Open your world map. The Everscribe toolbar sits on the left edge.
2. Pick a tool and click the map: a pin, a text label, an arrow, a drawing or a timer.
3. Right-click anything you placed to change its icon, text, colors or timer.
4. Inside a dungeon or raid, open the map and your parchment sheet for that instance opens with it.
5. Press the Share button to send your notes to your group, your guild or a friend, or export them as text for Discord.

Commands

On the map: right-click or Shift+click to edit, drag to move, click a timer to start or pause it, Ctrl+click to reset it. Hold Shift while placing to drop several in a row.

Features

Write on the map

• Pins with icons: ores, herbs, treasure, raid markers and a hand-made Everscribe marker set (bosses, beasts, dragonkin, demons, undead and more) with found and not found states.
• Any icon in the game: type an icon name, a path or a file ID.
• Text labels: pick the text color, size, background color and transparency.
• Zone notes also show on the continent map, so you see your whole route at a glance.

Arrows you can stretch

• Click to add points and right-click to finish. Drag any point later to reshape the arrow.
• Ctrl+click a point to add one next to it, Alt+click to remove it.
• Arrowhead at the end, at both ends or none, in any color and width.
• Shows the total distance in yards and how long it takes on foot.
• Measure tool: check a distance Google Maps style without leaving anything on the map.

Pencil and eraser

• Hold left click and draw outlines, rooms, patrol paths or routes freehand.
• 8 inks, 5 widths and closed outlines.
• Strokes are smoothed and kept light, so they share fast.
• The eraser highlights the drawing under your cursor before you delete it.
• Drag a drawing by its handle to move it whole.

Never miss a respawn

• Countdown timers for rares, chests and events, with repeat and a raid-warning alert with sound.
• Stopwatches to time your farm loops.
• Layer-aware: bind a timer to your current layer and it only alerts loudly while you are on that layer.
• Timers keep running after you log out.

A map for every dungeon

Dungeons and raids in Forever have no map, so Everscribe gives each one its own parchment sheet with every tool: pins, text, arrows, drawings and timers.

• Opens by itself when you open the map inside an instance.
• Up to 9 pages per instance for wings and floors, each one renamable.
• Every Classic dungeon and raid is ready to plan from outside. The new Forever instances join the list the first time you enter them.
• Movable and resizable, with its own key binding.

Share with your people

• Share one note, an area you select, the map you are looking at or everything.
• Send it to your group, raid, guild or a single player.
• Export as text to paste on Discord or anywhere, and others import it with one click.
• Nothing arrives without your OK: accept, decline or block, with "always accept from this player".
• Shared notes show who sent them. Newer edits replace older ones and deletions sync, so nothing gets duplicated.
• Running timers arrive still running.

Feels like part of the game

• Undo and redo for everything, from a moved pin to a whole import.
• Lock mode so nothing moves by accident.
• Key bindings for the instance sheet, undo and redo (Key Bindings > AddOns > Everscribe).
• Available in English, Spanish, Chinese and Portuguese (follows your game language).

Good to know

• Your notes are saved per account, so all your characters see them. Retail and Forever keep separate data.
• Sharing in-game needs Everscribe on both sides. Text exports work with anyone who has Everscribe, on any realm.
• Sharing hundreds of notes in-game can take a minute because the game limits addon messages. Text export is instant.
• Undo and redo last until you log out or reload.
• Distances are not available on instance sheets, because the game gives no coordinates inside dungeons.
