Description
PreyTell
The Prey Hunt Table shows you fifteen hunts a week and tells you nothing about which of them are worth taking. PreyTell puts a bouncing arrow over the ones that are, and says why when you hover.
✅ Not a hunt tracker. It doesn't count your kills, keep a board, or add a window. It answers one question, on the map you are already looking at: should I take this hunt?
The information exists. It's sitting in the Prey achievements — 43 of them once you count the pair achievements and the Coiled Isle set — and reading it means closing the map, opening the achievement pane, and holding fifteen creature names in your head on the way back.
PreyTell does that read for you and puts the answer where the decision is made.
A mark means take this one. Nothing else earns one.
Most addons of this shape mark everything they know about and leave you to work out which marks matter. That is the same problem in a different place.
There are exactly two reasons to take a prey hunt, so there are exactly two marks. A bright arrow means the kill closes an achievement box you still have open. A faint one means you have never killed this creature at all. Hover it and the tooltip still explains why.
✨ What you get
- 🏹 An arrow over the hunts worth taking. The game's own tutorial pointer, bouncing gently over the pin, coloured green, orange or red for Normal, Hard and Nightmare.
- 💬 A tooltip that names the achievement. Eg. Completes Prey: Nightmare Mode II"
- ✅ Which difficulties you've already beaten it on, by name, on the second line.
- 📋 A verdict on the quest page. Open a hunt you've taken in the map's quest log: "Worth doing" or "Drop it", and the reason.
- 🎲 A verdict on Astalor's random hunt. Works with Immersion and DialogueUI too.
- 📌 A panel that can't get lost. Drag it where you like and it's remembered against the map, so moving or resizing the map takes it along. Drop it near an edge and it lines up flush.
- 🏆 Every achievement a prey kill can tick. The Normal, Hard and Nightmare Mode series, all twenty-eight pair achievements, Gotta Hunt Them All, and the Coiled Isle set
- 🧠 Achievements are account-wide and retroactive, and PreyTell keeps its own log for prey no achievement lists yet.
- 🤫 Quiet. No window, no minimap button, nothing printed at login, and nothing at all running while the hunt table / hunt quests are closed.
Settings
One page in the game's own settings window: which marks to draw, colour by difficulty, opacity, the arrow's size and height, and whether it bounces. /ptell opens it.
Compatibility
- Retail, patch 12.1.
- Works alongside other prey and hunt addons
- Nothing is written to Blizzard's frames: the marks are PreyTell's own, anchored to the pins, so it never taints the hunt table and never sits between you and a click.
- If a patch renumbers the achievements,
/ptell checksays so in one line instead of the addon quietly deciding nothing is worth doing. - No libraries, no embedded code.
