Storied
The game forgets where your gear came from. Storied remembers.
Hover any item and see its story:
- Crusader by Bob, 11 Nov 2026 — who put the enchant on it, and when
- Looted from Ragnaros, Molten Core — 12 Nov 2026, with 39 others
- 1,204 kills — every killing blow, counted on the weapon in your hand
What it records
Enchants. When someone enchants your item through the "Will not be traded" slot of a trade, Storied writes down who and when. If the item gets a new enchant later, the old line goes away.
Where it came from, for green and better gear:
- the creature and zone it dropped in, and how many were in your group (it remembers through need/greed rolls too)
- chests, by name
- lockboxes, with who picked the lock for you
- quest rewards, vendors, trades and mail, including auctions you won
Weapon kills. Your killing blows count on your main hand weapon, or on your bow, gun, crossbow, wand or thrown weapon right after a shot.
Settings
Options > AddOns > Storied, or type /storied. Each part can be switched off, and "Show on tooltips" hides the lines without stopping the recording.
/storiedopens the settings/storied debugprints each trade, origin and kill as it's recorded/storied helplists the commands
Good to know
- Storied records from the day you install it. Nothing earlier can be recovered, because the game never kept it.
- History is kept per character, and per kind of item: two copies of the same item share one history.
- Works on Classic Era and World of Warcraft: Forever.
