MobTally
MobTally is a lightweight, automatic NPC kill counter developed specifically for World of Warcraft: Forever.
It quietly tracks the creatures defeated by your character or your own active pet, maintaining persistent character-specific and account-wide totals displayed directly in NPC tooltips.
No configuration, no unnecessary interfaces—just automatic kill tracking.
Features
- Automatic Kill Tracking: Records identifiable NPC kills credited to your character or active pet.
- Pet Kill Credit: Supports active Hunter pets, Warlock demons, and controllable Mage pets.
- Player-Specific Tracking: Excludes kills credited to other players and their pets, including party and raid members.
- Character Statistics: Maintains separate NPC kill counts for each character.
- Account-Wide Totals: Combines recorded kills across characters sharing the same local Forever SavedVariables database.
- NPC Tooltip Integration: Displays character and account totals when hovering over previously defeated NPC types.
- Persistent Statistics: Retains recorded kills between sessions and updates.
- Minimal Resource Usage: Event-driven operation without continuous polling.
- No Configuration Required: No settings menus, additional windows, or minimap buttons.
- No Dependencies: Requires no external libraries or additional add-ons.
Kill Count Display
MobTally automatically displays a single line in NPC tooltips when recorded statistics are available.
Kills (Char / Acct): 25 / 150
- Char: Kills of that NPC type credited to your current character, including qualifying pet kills.
- Acct: Combined recorded kills of that NPC type across your characters.
Slash Commands
/mobt or /mobtally
Displays a brief chat summary of character kills, account-wide kills, and unique NPC types tracked.
/mobt status
Displays the same summary with additional diagnostic information when available.
No commands are required for normal operation.
Kill Attribution
MobTally records NPC kills credited directly to your character or your own active, controllable pet.
Kills credited to other players or their pets are excluded, regardless of party or raid membership.
Temporary guardians and other summons that cannot be reliably identified as your own active pet may not receive kill credit.
WoW Forever Compatibility
MobTally is developed exclusively for World of Warcraft: Forever.
Blizzard may restrict certain combat and NPC identification information. MobTally only records kills when sufficient information is available to identify both the defeated NPC and the character or pet responsible.
Kills that cannot be reliably identified are excluded rather than estimated.
Data and Privacy
All statistics are stored locally through World of Warcraft's SavedVariables system.
- Kill counts persist between sessions.
- Character statistics contribute to local account-wide totals.
- Existing statistics are preserved when updating.
- No information is transmitted, uploaded, or shared externally.
