GatherReq

Shows required gathering skill directly in the tooltip.

GatherReq

GatherReq adds profession skill requirements directly to the default tooltip in World of Warcraft: Burning Crusade Classic.

No more walking up to a herb, mining node, corpse, or lockbox just to find out whether you can use it.

Features

  • Shows required Mining skill on mining node tooltips
  • Shows required Herbalism skill on herb tooltips
  • Shows required Skinning skill on skinnable corpses
  • Shows required Lockpicking skill on supported lockboxes and locked objects
  • Replaces the default simple profession line with a more useful requirement line when possible
  • Shows your current skill in the tooltip when you know the profession
  • Uses profession-style difficulty colors
  • Shows a training reminder when Mining, Herbalism, or Skinning is within 25 points of the current cap
  • Takes TBC character level requirements into account before saying the next rank is trainable

Examples

  • Requires Mining 175
  • Requires Herbalism 315 (You: 342)
  • Requires Skinning 225

Scope

This addon is built for WoW TBC Classic 2.5.5.

It augments Blizzard’s normal tooltip. It does not add a custom range overlay or scan objects that do not already produce a tooltip.

Notes

  • English-only in this version
  • Uses curated requirement lookup data for mining, herbalism, and lockpicking
  • Computes skinning requirements from unit level
  • Unknown or ambiguous tooltip names are skipped instead of guessed
