1. Overview

Rush Mode allows a group of players (often streamers) to engage in a shared rush with strict rules:

Track full leveling to 60
Complete objectives related to professions, levels, and dungeons
Prevent external assistance (gold and items from mail or trades)

All critical actions are tracked locally and securely shared between rush members.

2. 🛠️ Installation (if not using CurseForge)

Download the addon
Place it into:

World of Warcraft/_classic_era_/Interface/AddOns/Rush_Mode

Launch WoW Classic
Ensure Rush Mode is enabled in the AddOns menu

3. 🚀 Initial Setup – `/rinit`

The first mandatory step is initialization.

Run the following command in-game:

/rinit

This opens an initialization window.
Initialization Screenshot

You must provide:

Streamer / Participant Name
Team Name
Rush Key

🔑 Important – Rush Key

The Rush Key must remain strictly secret.

Share it only with official rush members
It grants access to rush participation
Anyone with this key can potentially join the rush

Once saved, this step does not need to be repeated for this rush.

4. 🔍 Character Tracking

After initialization, you can activate tracking:

On your current character
On additional characters (rerolls)

Once tracking is enabled:

It cannot be disabled
This prevents abuse (e.g. opting out after suspicious actions)

5. 🔗 Whitelist & Synchronization

If this is your first character participating in the rush, you must connect it with another rush member.

By using the whitelist sharing button, or if you are not yet in a guild, you can also share your whitelist with other players using the same rush ID by running /rconnect.

Command:

/rconnect <playerName>

This will:

Exchange and synchronize the whitelist
Establish trusted communication

🔄 Rerolls

After the first successful connection:

Rerolls automatically receive the whitelist
No additional manual connection is required

6. 🏰 Guild Requirement & Communication Caveats

⚠️ Mandatory Guild Requirement

All rush participants must be in the same guild.

Guild communication is required for:

Tracking
Synchronization
Anti-fraud data exchange

⚙️ Known WoW Classic Limitation

When joining a guild, WoW Classic does not properly reinitialize addon GUILD communication channels.

⚡ Impact

Tracking may appear partially functional
Synchronization may be degraded

🔄 Required Action (one-time only)

After joining the guild:

Log out
Log back in

This fully resets the communication system.
Once done, no further action is required for this character.

7. ✅ Status Indicators

If everything is configured correctly, you should see the following state:

🟢 – Synchronized
- Whitelist populated
- Communication operational
🔴/🟡 – Not synchronized
- Whitelist empty or incomplete
- Tooltip explains what is missing

8. 🛡️ Rules & Anti-Fraud System

Core Rules

Participants must:

Reach level 60
Complete rush-defined objectives (levels, professions, dungeons…)

Anti-Fraud Enforcement

If you accept:

Trades
Mail (gold or items)

from non-rush participants, the action will be:

Logged
Shared with administrators
Reviewed and adjudicated if necessary

This includes:

Partial trades
Progressive withdrawals
Mail-based assistance

Once tracking is enabled, all actions are monitored automatically.

If you want to go further, contact me on Discord or Twitter to enable an external tracking solution.

9. 📝 Commands Reference

Identity

You can change your team at any time.

/rjoin <team>

Synchronization

You can synchronize your whitelist with new players at any time.

/rconnect <playerName>

Reset Addon

Use this only if the rush is finished and you want to start another one.

If others are still participating, they will continue to receive your character's data because it remains in the whitelist.

/rreset
/rinit

10. ⚠️ Important Warnings

🪦 Character Death

If your character dies:

🚫 DO NOT DELETE IT

Reason:

The whitelist is based on character name
If someone reuses the same name and joins the guild:
- They will be incorrectly whitelisted
- This compromises the rush integrity

Always keep dead characters intact.
