Rarity: Collector's Edition is always looking for contributors!

If you're interested in following the development process or contributing, you should also check out our Github and our Discord.

We're always in need of more hands to help us make the addon better, and it is the best place to report bugs as well.

What is Rarity: Collector's Edition?

Rarity CE is the restored version of the old Rarity addon previously maintained by RDW. Volunteers from Collector Communities and the old Classic Rarity Dev have taken it upon themselves to keep the addon up to date in this new form.

Rarity tracks how many times you've tried to obtain various rare items like mounts, battle pets, and toys. It will tell you how likely you are to obtain the item, track how long you've been farming for it, and tell you how lucky you've been so far. Although it's mostly used for mounts, battle pets, and toys, it supports pretty much any item, including profession patterns, archaeology projects, and more.

Out of the box, Rarity includes support for the majority of Mounts, Battle Pets, and Toys in the game which require some time to farm. It also includes support for some mount-related items like Skyshards, Primal Eggs, and Giant Dinosaur Bones. It'll even notice if you mouseover a Mysterious Camel Figurine, plus lots of other stuff. Rarity factors in the size of a typical group when determining probabilities, and can also tell you if you've killed various bosses this week (or day). Holiday just started, and you didn't notice? Rarity will give you a helpful reminder to run those holiday dungeons or daily quests if you still need an item from them.

If Rarity doesn't track something you want to track, you can import it yourself! Just about everything is user configurable.

Main Features:

Rarity is primarily an LDB feed with a large tooltip. It can function as either a mini-map icon (you have to turn this on in the options), or as a standard LDB feed (use a display like Titan Panel).
Provides a progress bar, which you can toggle by clicking the icon or feed label.
Adds info to NPC and item tooltips, showing you if it drops or contains something that Rarity tracks. Rare mobs with a guaranteed drop show which item they drop and if you've defeated them yet.
Includes full source info, telling you how to obtain everything Rarity tracks.

Other Features:

Share packs of items with other users.
Can automatically add waypoints to TomTom for certain items.
Uses statistics whenever possible to keep track of attempts prior to installation.
Breaks your farming down by session, day, week, and month.
Looks at your instance locks to see if you've defeated various bosses recently.
Reminds you if you need to farm a holiday dungeon or daily quest, and hides holiday items that aren't available right now.
Supports bonus coin rolls.
Automatically screenshots when you obtain an item.
You can add your own items to track.
Lets you modify your attempt count manually without having to edit saved variables.
