Description
Hover is a lightweight World of Warcraft addon that restores a classic quality-of-life feature:
showing detailed tooltips when hovering links in chat — just like in ElvUI and other UI suites, but without any heavy dependencies.
Features
Instant tooltips when you hover over:
- Items
- Spells
- Achievements
- Quests
- Units
- Mythic+ Keystones
Works seamlessly in all default chat windows.
Fully standalone — no libraries, no frameworks, no saved variables.
Lightweight (<10 KB memory footprint).
Compatible with retail, seasonal, and most custom UIs.
How it improves your gameplay
Hover streamlines communication and inspection in chat:
- Instantly see an item’s stats or a keystone’s level without needing to click.
- Compare gear links from friends, guildmates, or raid members on the fly.
- Avoid clutter from opening tooltips manually.
- Keeps your chat experience fast, fluid, and informative — especially in group play or Mythic+ coordination.
