  • About The Collector
  •  

Introdution

The Collector displays a list of all mounts, companions (minipets), and titles that your character hasn't collected yet. It takes into account factors such as your faction, class, or profession.

Basic Features

  • Show missing companions (minipets)
  • Show missing mounts
  • Show missing titles
  • Ignore List
  • Tooltip information on where to obtain missing items

Usage

Opening the Collector window

To open the Collector window open the pet/mount tab (Shift-P) from your Character window and click the Toggle button in the upper right corner. Or you can use the slash command "/tc show". This will open a window that shows what you are missing for that tab. With the window open you can easily switch between tabs to see what you still need to collect.

Slash Commands

  • /thecollector or /tc will display the usage text
  • /thecollector show or /tc show will bring up the main window
  • /thecollector config or /tc config will bring up the configuration window
  • /thecollector reset or /tc reset will center the main window on the screen

Ignore List

You can add items to an ignore list by right-clicking them and selecting Mark as Inactive. This is useful if for some reason you will never be able to obtain that item and don't want to continue tracking it. Inactive items are placed in a list at the bottom of the missing items. To track an item again, simply right-click it in the Inactive list and select Mark as Active.

Thanks

This addon was largely inspired by AckisRecipeList. If you're looking for a similar addon to tell you what tradeskill/profession recipes you're missing, check it out.

    Hi, is it possible to make the button on the character sheet movable, because its overlap with the button of Outfitter.

    It would seem to me that Tabards would function the same way ... they are especially annoying to collect because there is no other way to 'see' which ones you've already done and ones you are missing.

    Are you planning to include them in an upcoming version?

    yo hey its me again and just as another less complicates idea since I see you have added the titles. I was asking my friend what he collects in wow he told me that he collect companion pets, mounts, titles, and tabards so I was thinking why don't you add a tabard part to the AddOn it just makes it one step close to the ultimate collecting AddOn Helper thing.

    k i love the addon on how I don't have to shrink the game to find out what pets and mount I have/don't have but what would be awesome is if it just listed all the pets in the game, highlights the ones you got in green, lets u choose the filters, lets you chose to exclude pets as you please such promotional pets, but some people waste there time for promotional pets so yeah just putting that out there, also you should add an arrow that leads to the easiest location for you to get the pet and make it so you choose what pet you track, also add the locations, names of vendors, level of creatures you have to kill, name of enemies you have to kill to get it, and a drop rate of the pet, I advise you use www.warcraftpets.com to find out the drop rate, vedors, creatures you have to kill, levels of the creatures, locations and all the rest, also just to say I still use the addon, but alot of my friends won't use it unless the changes listed above are made, you don't have too

    Any chance on adding in the location of these pets? Like Vendor name and location, and if its a dropped pet, who/what it drops from and where?

    If you can add these to it, this mod would be a must have.

  • your /tc command clashes with the addon Tabard Champion http://wow.curse.com/downloads/wow-addons/details/ihatetabards.aspx

    Suggestion: Add information on the pet/mount such as where and how to obtain. Also prices can be helpful.

    Also add a fubar addon or a minimap button
