v2.0.0 Released!
The new version features a completely new GUI for viewing the mob database. It has been rewritten from scratch and is able to display all of the mob entries. There is no longer a limit of 200!
KillTrack
KillTrack will keep track of how many times you've killed various mobs.
The main way to see this info is on tooltips. As you hover over any killable mob, the kill count will be displayed on the bottom of the tooltip.
There is also a friendly list that you can bring up to display all mobs with their NPC id, global kill count and kills on the current character (Command: /kt list).
Specific lookups
If you want to know the number of kills you have on a specific mob, you can target the mob and use the command /kt target.
For any mob, use the command /kt lookup <identifier> where <identifier> is a name or NPC ID.
Kill Timer
Ever wanted to track how many kills you accumulate within a certain time? You can do so with KillTrack.
You simply tell it how long to track, and a window will pop up listing number of kills, time left, kills per minute and kills per second.
To start the timer, use the command /kt timer <seconds> [minutes] [hours]. You can also use the format /kt timer [num]s[num]m[num]h. With the second format, you can use any order for the arguments, /kt timer 3h50s2m will work just as well as /kt timer 50s2m3h.
For example: To start a 3.5 minute timer: /kt timer 30 3, /kt timer 30s3m or /kt timer 3m30s.
Kill Records
When you've killed a certain mob a certain number of times (1000 by default), KillTrack will notify you with a small gratulation message!
If you have the AddOn Glamour installed, it will show in the style of a guild achievement.
To change the threshold, use the command /kt threshold <threshold>, where <threshold> is the new threshold.
E.g: If you set the threshold to 100, then after you've killed a mob 100 times, it will notify you. And continue to notify you for every 100th kill.
Immediate Frame
By using the command /kt immediate (or /kt i for short), you will get a small frame that shows you how many kills you've made since running the command. This can be useful for times when you need to kill a certain number of mobs, but do not wish to reset your session statistics. Simply run /kt i and it will track how many kills you do until you close it, reopening the frame will reset the count.
The frame can also be opened from the broker plugin with Ctrl + Middle Click.
With the command /kt immediate threshold <threshold>, where <threshold> is a number, the addon will display a message on screen and play sound each time you kill that many creatures.
E.g: You open the immediate frame with /kt i and then set the threshold to 10 with /kt i threshold 10. Now each time you score 10 kills (10, 20, 30 et.c) you will see a message and hear a sound to notify you of this event. This can be useful when you need to score a certain number of kills for whatever reason (quests, item procs...).
If you have some addon tracking procs or similar you could call this from Lua with something like:
KillTrack.Immediate:Show() KillTrack:SetImmediateThreshold(someThreshold)
To automatically start tracking.
Other commands
- /kt: Shows available commands.
- /kt print: Toggles printing all kill updates locally to chat.
- /kt printnew: Toggles printing new mob entries locally to chat.
- /kt delete <id>: Deletes entry with NPC ID <id> from database.
- /kt purge [threshold]: Clears mob entries with a kill count below [threshold].
- /kt reset: Clears ALL mobs from the database.
- /kt threshold <threshold>: Sets the kill count threshold at which the AddOn will announce kill records (E.g: /kt threshold 100 to announce at every 100rd kill).
- /kt countmode: Toggles between counting your kills only, or also counting kills made by raid/party members.
- /kt showexp: Toggles showing how much experience a mob gives (and how many kills are required to gain a new level).
Feedback
If you have any suggestions, bug reports, complains et.c, please make a new ticket.
I would prefer if you use the Issues page on GitHub instead of the ones on Curse/WoWInterface.
It seems this only counts if you get the killing blow. I'm dual boxing and on the main toon I'm killing with it shows 15 kills for a mob while my healer on follow shows 1. They are grouped in the same party.
This is on TBC Classic
Could someone help me with the /kt set command? I keep getting errors saying the global or char are wrong.
This is an example of what I've been putting in:
/kt set 37738 Enervated Adder 1 1
Hey, is there anyway to edit the amount of kills? Would like to add previous kills before installing the addon.
Any chance to Update it for TBC ? thanks.
In reply to laysson:
Oh, I thought the release was happening later. I have a branch prepped for classic BC so should be able to get that out soon.
I added the killtracker to my titan panel, although it only shows KPM. Is there any way to change it to show Kill so far like the immediate frame does?
In reply to GamersWellYT:
Currently there is only the total and session counts on the data broker module. I might look into it if I get some time available though.
Hey, thanks for this awesome addon! I have been using this addon on my streams while killing Princess in Mara... unfortunately my windows OS got corrupt this week and i had to reinstall my whole PC. Is there any way to edit the number of kills to a higher number so i can continue counting where i was last up to currently at 670+ kills (now displaying only 1 kill after reset). Thank you!!
In reply to Forge_User_47096560:
Sorry for the late reply. A function to edit kill count is something I've had on my mind at times, and a good candidate for a feature to add. I made an issue to track it here: https://github.com/SharpWoW/KillTrack/issues/15
Note I don't currently actively play WoW so things might be slow moving when it comes to adding new features.
Would it be possible to not only track mobs you get the killing blow on? doesn't really work that well when you are a in a group where it is random on who gets the actual killshot.Noticed the /kt countmode now.... :)
I'd love to be able to display only character kills on tooltip (and not show global kills).
I'd also love an option to only show kills to level on tooltip, and not the xp part from the mob (right now it shows both).
If you don't mind, can you have the kill count printed on weakaura?
Hi, , when adding you addon to the elvui panels, it shows up two tooltips, making it night impossible to read it, could you possibly hace a look at it? This is in classic btw

Excellent, thanks so much.
Hey, thanks for the addon, I'm using the classic version.
I'm wondering if you're able to add the option to hide the tooltip so to view the kills you either do the chat command or go into the addon settings?
In reply to infek_sk:
I've added an option to disable the tooltip display in v1.13.0. You can toggle it in either the interface options or by running /kt tt.
Hi! Thank you very much for your work on this addon.
I've actually found your addon as the top result for a slightly different need: I want to know the average time it takes me to kill a specific mob after I've killed, say, 10 units of that mob. =)
Note that this is a bit different from starting a Kill Timer and dividing the number of minutes by the number of mobs killed, for example, because that would give me the average "total time" it takes me to kill that mob, including running around and any other downtime. What I'm interested in is a counter that starts the second my target is in-combat targeting me and ends with the mob dead, doing this over and over again for the mobs that I kill and giving me the average after X kills of that mob.
I hope that makes sense. I'm not sure if this is within the scope of KillTrack but it'd be amazing if the addon includes this feature.
Thank you again.
In reply to Forge_User_16352951:
That's a neat idea. I'd have to think of an efficient way to calculate it though.
Hey! I've used your addon for years now. It's a very handy tool to have for a borderline-OCD farmer like myself. I have the addon up to date but as of the BfA prepatch it isn't recording any kills. :( Will that be fixed soon?
