Experiencer is a minimum configuration required experience bar addon. It adds multi purpose experience, reputation, artifact power, honor and conquest progress bar to the bottom or the top of the screen. The bar can also be split in up to three different sections to display multiple data sources simultaneously.
Note that because the Experiencer bar can only be anchored to the top or the bottom of the screen it may overlap with other frames positioned in those places.
When tracking experience the addon will display your current rested percentage, remaining xp required to level and percentage of the same value. Once you start gaining experience it will display the total sum gained during the active session, experience per hour value, estimated time and number of quests to level. Additionally the number of experience points player will gain after turning in all completed quests (and optionally incomplete quests) is displayed with an accompanying visualizer bar. Session values are saved even when you log out, to reset them you must do so from the options menu.
Once you have reached the maximum level experiencer will change to displaying reputation progress. It displays the current level, reputation required to next level and percentage of the same value. By default the Experiencer will also attempt to automatically track the faction with whom you have last gained reputation.
If available Experiencer can also track artifact power, honor and conquest. * Artifact power tracking will unlock after you gain the Heart of Azeroth. * Conquest tracking unlocks at level 120.
Note! Experiencer will not hide the existing experience bar by Blizzard and you need to use a separate addon to do that. Usually an action bar replacement addon (Dominos or Bartender) will allow you to hide it and using one with this addon is recommended anyway.
By default the bar is colored the class color of the character you are playing but it can be changed in the options.
Experiencer also adds a DataBroker module that displays current text if you wish to place it elsewhere. To freely place it anywhere check out my DataBroker display addon Candy. In case Experiencer is split in to more than one section the left most bar will be used as the data source for DataBroker text.
Usage and Shortcuts
Experiencer options can be accessed by right clicking the bar or the DataBroker module. In order to make things smoother there are a few useful shortcuts.
- Control left-click toggles bar visiblity. There will always be a slightly translucent black bar where the bar is anchored.
- Middle-click toggles text visibility if text is not set to be always hidden.
- Holding control while scrolling with mouse wheel lets you browse through available bars in following order: experience, reputation, artifact power and honor.
-
Shift left-click pastes current statistics to chat editbox. Shift control left-click for quick paste.
-
Reputation: Holding shift while scrolling with mouse wheel over reputation bar will cycle through recent reputations.
Dependencies
Experiencer uses Ace3, LibSharedMedia and LibDataBroker which are included in the /libs directory.

wow, that was fast! :O
1st of all the addon looks great.
Is it possible to change the width of the bar? I can't seem to find a option to do so and the bar overlaps with other features of my UI.
Not currently and I didn't really plan for that either. Intention is that you'd move the other frames instead to prevent overlap. The likelihood of overlapping is noted in the addon description as well.
Hey. Love the look of this mod, but it looks like it might be incompatible with the "MoveAnything" mod found at http://www.curse.com/addons/wow/move-anything
Incompatible in what way? I use Move Anything too and have no problems with it.
If you mean you cannot move Experiencer with it, it's because Move Anything is only to move any Blizzard default frame, not those created by separate addons.
thats strange!
For me, when i have both experiencer and moveanything running at the same time, the xp bar shows no text or data on mouseover - nor can it be right clicked, and the bar is a solid color throughout (rather than partially to represent the progress through your level as normal). Disabling MoveAnything and the mod functions correctly.
I'll try doing the MoveAnything reset all and see if that helps...
Hello I just found your addon while looking for an exp/rep replacement bar since i do not like the exp/rep bar that comes with my current UI. It looks like it will work very well for me I do however have a couple of questions. First up is it possible to make the bar bigger so it is easier to see? I ask cause on my screen it is very small and almost impossible to read the text on it. Second is it possible to seperate the exp and rep into 2 different bars so I can see them both at the same time? Otherwise I do not see any other issues that would prevent me from using this cool addon. Thank you for taking the time to read this.
Added option to enlarge the bar in the newest update.
I will not be adding a way to view both experience and reputation at the same time. If you can put the effort into reputation farming while under maximum level you definitely can use Ctrl-Shift-Middle Mouse-shortcut to switch the bar between xp and rep display. Additionally the addon was designed to be simple and elegant display with single bar only and adding more would require significant changes to the code.
I like the add-on a great deal, I've never really found anything similar that worked like I wanted. The only thing I'm missing is the info I get with the Gazmik Fizzwidget add-ons and the default XP/rep bars. Faction Friend and XP Visualizer, specifically. If it's possible to hook in compatability with those you would have a superior combined feature-set.
I can take a look at it if it's possible to include the features without having to completely remake the functionality in this addon.
Recreated the experience visualizer functionality in the addon since the Fizzwidget addon is outdated and bugged at the moment. Same thing with the reputation addon, it has incorrect reputation data.
