Tips

- Yellow steps have a ~75% chance — use them to fill gaps
- Green steps are inefficient — avoid unless materials are free
- Check the Shopping tab before logging off so you can buy mats in advance
Compatibility
- World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade Classic (2.5.x)
- WoW Classic Anniversary (Season of Discovery / Anniversary realms)
- Optional: TradeSkillMaster (TSM), Auctionator

Does it work on Anniversary / Season of Discovery realms? Yes.
Does it work on Retail WoW? No — it is designed specifically for TBC Classic API.
Is it free? Yes, completely free and open source.
