Description
SkillSprocket
Know at a glance when it's time to visit a trainer.
SkillSprocket puts every profession you've learned on one small, movable bar, showing your current skill and your current cap side by side. In Classic, the real blocker isn't your skill level. It's hitting 75, 150 or 225 without having trained the next rank. SkillSprocket makes that impossible to miss.
Features
- All your professions in one place. Primary professions plus Cooking, First Aid and Fishing.
- Live updates. Skill-ups, training, learning and unlearning are reflected instantly.
- Colour-coded states:
- White: levelling normally
- Amber: ready to train the next rank
- Red: capped, no more skill-ups until you train
- Gold: maxed at 300
- Skill bonuses shown. Racial and gear bonuses appear alongside your base skill, e.g.
142 (+15) / 150. - Detailed tooltips. Hover a profession to see its rank, points to cap, skill gained this session, and the skill and level needed for the next rank.
- Secondary skill guidance. Tooltips tell you where to get Expert and Artisan Cooking, First Aid and Fishing, since these come from books and quests, not trainers.
- Alerts. Optional tile flash on skill-up, plus a sound and chat message when you become capped or ready to train.
- Fully customisable. Horizontal or vertical layout, scale, spacing, background opacity, border, names, progress bars, and per-profession visibility.
- Stays out of your way. Lock the position, hide in combat, or hide professions you've maxed.
- Lightweight. No libraries or dependencies.
