Your next craft, material list and trainer location — inside the game.

Profession Help is a free profession companion for the original English WoW 3.3.5a client (Interface 30300). This beta includes routes for all 14 professions and whole-step craft estimates with selectable x1, x2, x3 or x7 profession skill gains. Compatibility with modern Retail or Classic clients is not claimed.

0.3.3-beta1: test fix for TradeSkillMaster freezes

Test fix for game freezes when opening a profession through TradeSkillMaster (TSM). This update reduces repeated recipe scans and prevents recursive scans. The reported TSM conflict has not yet been verified in-game; feedback from players using TSM is still needed.

New in 0.3.2-beta: choose your skill rate

Use Skill rate below the Profession button to select x1, x2, x3 or x7. Your choice is saved per character and applies to all professions. Craft and material estimates update immediately, with components reserved for later recipes. Existing characters default to x3. Changing the rate replaces any manual craft quantity with the new recommendation. It changes addon estimates, not server settings.

What it helps you do

• Browse 1–450 leveling routes and choose the next recipe.
• See estimated craft counts, learned recipe materials, bag quantities and missing amounts.
• Keep useful components with KEEP / USE / SELL guidance.
• Check training reminders and use Show on map for catalogued trainers and vendors.
• View optional Auctionator prices and recorded vendor purchase prices.
• Open the guide from the minimap or with /ph. No login popup; automatic opening stops at skill 450.

All 14 professions

Engineering, Tailoring, Alchemy, Blacksmithing, Enchanting, Inscription, Jewelcrafting, Leatherworking, Cooking, First Aid, Mining, Herbalism, Skinning and Fishing. Gathering guides show suggested areas rather than exact resource spawns.

Installation and first use

1. Close WoW and extract the ProfessionHelp folder into Interface/AddOns.
2. Enable Profession Help at character selection.
3. Open your profession or type /ph. Use the Profession selector to browse another guide.
4. Open your own matching profession and clear its filters to load learned recipes and materials.
5. Select a step, review training and materials, then craft a small batch and recheck your actual skill.

Use Refresh to update skill, materials and available prices. In Leveling it also returns to your current step. Keep SavedVariables when updating. Auctionator is optional.

Beta limitations

Craft counts are whole-step estimates, not a remaining count or a guarantee of skill-ups. Yellow and green recipes may need more crafts. The NPC and recipe catalogue is still growing; not every vendor, recipe or trainer is included. Full live testing across all professions is ongoing.
