Description
GemTracker TBC is a lightweight, efficient, and user-friendly in-game database and tracker designed specifically for World of Warcraft: Burning Crusade Classic. It helps players instantly find the best gems for their class, specialization, and role without ever needing to leave the game or alt-tab to external websites.
Whether you are looking for the optimal gems for Phase 1 or gearing up for final raid tiers, GemTracker TBC has you covered with a fully optimized, lag-free internal database.
Key Features
-
Smart Filtering System: Easily filter gems by Class, Specialization, Role (Caster DPS, Physical DPS, Healer, Tank), Gem Color, Phase, and Source (Crafting, Drops, Vendors, Quests).
-
Automatic Class Detection: When you log in or open the addon, it instantly detects your character's class using internal client IDs, automatically setting up the filters and default specializations for you.
-
Hybrid Gem Mapping: Advanced internal color filtering. Hybrid sockets like Purple, Green, or Orange gems are automatically categorized into the primary sockets they fit into (Red, Yellow, Blue), making search results accurate and intuitive.
-
Clean & Dynamic Tooltips: Custom-built tooltip integration. Hovering over any gem item in the game shows its phase, color, acquisition source, and a beautifully compact, color-coded list of exactly which classes and specs it is best for.
-
Optimized Summary Format: No more messy, wall-of-text lists. If a gem fits all talent trees of a class, it compactly displays as
Warlock (All Specs). If it fits selected ones, it cleanly merges them, such asWarrior (Arms/Fury).

100% Native & Lag-Free: Built directly over the internal WoW Client constants. It bypasses typical Blizzard API synchronization lag by fetching class data instantly on character login.
-
Low Memory Footprint: Built on top of the Ace3 Framework structure, ensuring maximum performance and zero frame drops during raids or heavy gameplay.
-
Addon Friendly: The minimap button uses a localized safe anchor orbit, meaning it will not break or displace your default Blizzard UI, custom action bars, or dedicated minimap layout modifications like SexyMap.
