GatherMate2
GatherMate2 is an addon to collect and track herbs, mines, fishing pools, gas clouds, archaelogy finds and treasures, and displays them on the world map and the mini map.
This is the Retail version of GatherMate2, the version for WoW Classic can be found here
GatherMate will remember the location of every herb you pick or every ore you mine, so that you can easily find the positions of the herbs and mines again. Once you come into range of a recorded spot, GatherMate will show an icon representing the type of herb/ore/fish/etc. on your mini map, directly allowing you to decide if its worth checking out. Additionally, all spots are shown on the World Map, to ease navigation to certain types of nodes and making gathering more fun.
To give you a head start, GatherMate2 also offers a pre-filled data module, so you don't need to discover all herbs and mines yourself, but instead can just start gathering right away. Simply install GatherMate2_Data and hit a few buttons to import all the provided data, and you're good to go.

Usage
Using GatherMate2 is straight-forward.
After the installation, GatherMate2 is automatically active and collecting data.
You can configure which data should be shown on the World Map or MiniMap in the Configuration Dialog, which can be accessed either via the /gathermate slash command or be found in the Interface options in the WoW Menu.
Localization (Translation of Nodes)
GatherMate2 relies on the node names to be translated in all languages WoW supports. You can contribute additional translations for your language here using the Localization tool:
https://www.wowace.com/projects/gathermate2/localization
Any translations submitted through that tool will be automatically included in the next release.
GatherMate2_Data
GatherMate2_Data has been updated with all fresh data from Wowhead, including support for Shadowlands, and will be continously updated throughout the coming expansion.

Love the addon. Been using it for years. However now with bfa a recurring irritation has returned: not being able to fly and hard to reach nodes.
There are two kinds of nodes that are not easy to reach. Nodes that are in caves (where you have to find the cave entrance first) and nodes on plateau's, where you have to find the path up first. It would be great, if you could mark nodes as being in one of these 2 categories and then also mark a location where the path beginds (cave entrance, or beginning of the path up the mountain).
Has anyone tried the zygor guides version of this addon. I was checking out a review and it seemed to do what this addon does, but without the trouble.
Not sure how people are having problems, i just installed yesterday for the first time and it works just fine i did not have to follow any instructions whatsoever. Went to three continents yesterday and it was registering all nodes i mined in those three different expansion. But who knows i might be back if there's problem but so far so good.
Just had to do a complete wipe of my addons and when i put this one back in the lag makes game unplayable. Oh well.
Personally, I ran into a glitch about a week or so ago, where I was trying to do a World Quest, and it would not let me pick up the item unless I shut off Gathermate 2. When this happens, it will keep it shut off, even if you log out of the game, until you go back into your add-ons and turn it back on again.
This may be some of what people are experiencing.
Even so, I have been running without GatherMate 2 turned on for over a week now. I may just uninstall it. It really doesn't add anything to my gameplay in the long run. I have been playing since the early days of The Burning Crusade... so well over 13 years of gameplay. Resource Farming follows typical patterns, so I can figure it out without the add-on... so I may just discard it completely.
Besides, for me, half the fun of the game is the exploration and sense of adventure.
Hi, looks like nodes are not showing up when being tapped or discovered in old expansions, rich saronite nodes are not being discovered or added to the map when I mine them .. possibly other types as well
Not working. I have the data addon but nothing works, no nodes appearing at all on the map and mini map, I imported the data multiple times, reinstalled it several times, and nothing..... Can we please get a fix?
anyone help , ive been messing about with addon between 2 chars , and now the mineing ores ive farmed in BFA zones are not showing up on my map they are gone , but i did press import on my other char , does that mean ive lost the ones i did in BFA zone.
All these people who are saying you're missing the data you are dumb. Did you not read the instructions you have to download the data and routes separately. For those of you who say the mod isn't showing up, you aren't supposed to take the add on out of the folder. Just move the folder that shows up into the addon file, not take the stuff out of the Gathermate folder. Working fine...

Just wish this would work properly...

What isn't working? Your post doesn't have any useful information.
Hello, does the author read comments here? I have a bug or smt with this addon, no lua erros but I have a fps drop to 0 (freeze lasting millisecond or smt) every 5 seconds with show mini map nodes selected) Disabling the addon or the option eliminates the freezes.
Cant choose BFA as expansion
no mining or herbing data even after manual taps and entire guild running addon
Is it possible to add something that would alert the player when an anchor weed node is found nearby? Or is that outside the scope of the addon / just straight up impossible?
There are no nodes on my world map after I do an Import.. any idea why?
