Material Tooltip shows which profession recipes use an item directly in its tooltip. Quickly check what your herbs, ores, cloth, enchanting materials, and other reagents are used for, without switching between profession windows.
Available for WoW Classic Era and WoW Forever. Download the version matching your game.
Features
