📖 Quexpert

Quest Efficiency Analyzer for World of Warcraft TBC Classic

Quexpert automatically analyzes all active quests in your quest log and rates their efficiency based on XP/Minute, estimated time, mob density, and quest chains. This helps you decide which quests are most worthwhile!

🎯 Features

Quest chains (follow-ups increase value)

Sorted by zone and efficiency
Color-coded difficulty levels for quest names
Quest tags: [G] for group quests, * for class quests, >> X for follow-ups

📊 What Do The Values Mean?

Efficiency Rating (1-10)

10.0 = Perfect! Very high XP/min, quickly completed
8.0-9.9 = Very good
6.0-7.9 = Good
4.0-5.9 = Average
<4.0 = Inefficient (maybe do it later)

XP/m (XP per Minute)

Estimated experience points per minute. Higher = better!

Est. Time (Estimated Time)

Approximate minutes until completion (based on number of objectives)

Density (Mob Density)

High (Green): Many mobs, quick to farm
Medium (Yellow): Normal mob count
Low (Orange): Few mobs, longer travel times

💡 Tips & Tricks

Prioritize quests with >>X: Quest chains are often more efficient because you stay in the same zone
Group quests solo? Quests with [G] have a time multiplier when you're solo. Best done in a group!
Zone batching: Do all high efficiency quests in a zone together before moving on
Tooltip check: Hover over quests in the quest log for detailed analysis
Refresh: After accepting/completing quests, click "Refresh" in the UI or /reload
Chat analysis: Use /qx analyze for a quick overview without UI

🔧 Troubleshooting

Problem: No quests are displayed

Solution: Make sure you have active quests in the quest log. Click "Refresh" or /reload

Problem: Quest chains are not detected

Solution: Install Questie for better chain detection

Problem: Efficiency values seem wrong

Solution: The calculation is based on TBC XP tables and estimated times. You can adjust the weighting in settings

Problem: Minimap button is missing

Solution: /qx minimap or enable "Show minimap button" in settings

Problem: UI is outside the screen

Solution: /reload to reset, or close WoW and delete the position from SavedVariables
