Whelp Plz

Whelp Plz

Whelp Plz turns your character into one line of text. Type /wp, press Ctrl+C, and paste the string into whelpplz.com. The site reads your level, class, gear, completed quests and trained abilities, then lays out what to go and do next.

Using it

1. Type /wp in game. A small window opens with your character string already selected.
2. Press Ctrl+C, then Escape.
3. Paste it at whelpplz.com.

/whelpplz and /sw open the same window.

What you get back

Per class and level, across 49 zones: which trainer owes you abilities, which items within reach beat what you are wearing, the drop rate and the rough kill count behind each one, and which instances and attunements have opened up. Coverage runs 1 to 60 for all nine Classic classes, over 1,974 items, 1,280 abilities, 329 class quests and 25 dungeons and raids.

What the string holds

• Class, faction and level
• Your character's name and realm
• Item IDs in your 19 equipment slots, your bags, and your bank as of your last visit to it
• Completed quest IDs and known spell IDs
• Profession names and their ranks
• Talent points per tree
• Standing with seven factions: Argent Dawn, Timbermaw Hold, Thorium Brotherhood, Cenarion Circle, Hydraxian Waterlords, Brood of Nozdormu and Zandalar Tribe
• Where your hearth is set, and the zone you were in when you exported
• Copper on hand

Name and realm are new in 0.4.0. The site is growing a community layer, and there you are your character rather than an account: the name is what signs anything you leave behind. No guild, and nothing about anyone you play with.

Where the string goes

The addon writes to a text box on your screen and stops there. Paste it and your browser reads it: the string sits in local storage on that machine, and whelpplz.com holds nothing.

That is still the default. I am building a sign-in so your marks can follow you to a second screen, and so the site can show who else is out in the world tonight. Take it or leave it, and the tool works the same either way. No charge for any of it.

Beta

Version 0.4.0, built for the 1.15.7 Classic client. The export format is settled: 0.4.0 adds two fields and the site still reads every older string. Some routes and numbers on the site are wrong, so tell me in the comments when you hit one and I will fix it.
