https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/handynotes-battle-for-azeroth-achievements has been deleted for some reason so it likely wont be updated anymore. Any plan to update this handynotes to include the remaining acheivements? Such as

• Carved in Stone, Written in Blood
• Dune Rider
• A Loa of a Tale
• Drust the Facts, Ma'am

In reply to MaybeSnoop:

 I would like to see the BfA Achievements module incorporated into this add-on if possible as well.

Would be nice to add the pvp treasures too.

Just curious if there are plans to update to include all the new 8.3 rares and treasures.  Thanks!

can you add option to remove the skull from map if the achievement/loot is already obtained?

The problem with this addon is that is is just a dump of everything.

If i want to hide mechanized chests, i have to hide all nodes on every character 1 by 1 or hide treasures all together because there is only 1 check in the options

It doesn't hide rares that have already given their rewards either

I like it for the 6 principal zones but the last updates messed up a lot of my visibility on the new zones

I will revert to pre-8.2 update

The two Hoppin' sad frogs furthest east are switched when you loot the one at 65,51 the other at 69,58 vanishes.

Any way to automatically hide rares you killed and got the blue prints from them?

A lot of rares are not coming back the next day after you kill them in Nazjatar - Tidelord Aquatius, Elder Onu, Voice in the Deeps are the 3 I noticed, though I'm pretty sure there's more.

Caverndark Terror's icon is in the COMPLETELY wrong place, as well. You're also missing icons showing where the 4 "hidden" ancient rares are. (Oronu, Urduu, Anemonar, and Kelpwillow).

This addon also shows where world quest "rares" are, but they aren't actual rares. They're just silver dragon portraits that spawn to kill for world quests. They don't drop anything, and Blizzard even clarified in a blue post that they aren't rare spawns.

Is this still working? to me I can't see any treasures on map.

☠️

Can you please make it function more like the warfront rares handynotes? With the larger skulls that are purple when you havent gotten the drop yet, white when youve gotten what they drop and hidden when youre loot locked?

its also not really necessary to show rest in pistons achieve progress since most will be done that fairly quickly.

Lot of stuff could be added to this - nazjatar chest locations, cat figuine locations, mechagon construction project locations, etc

and some rares have more than one spawn point which the other handynotes modules do well, (see draenor treasures) but this one is lacking atm.

will also be nice to add the note functionality where hovering over the skull says "in cave" or "entrance at these coords"

Thanks

I cannot upvote this enough.  It would be a huge quality of life change to make this addon perfect

A lot of the Nazjatar rares have multiple spawn points, are you planning on adding those? (Rares like Soundless, for example)

Then the slugs, snails, crabs, etc. can spawn in place of any of their common version in the entire zone (this is why you can see for instance the Amethyst Spireshell over by the Murlocs, but then also see it by Mezzamere a few minutes later). I believe even the piranha fish can as well. (I've seen the Daggertooth rare in 3 different places on completely opposite ends of the map, so I can only assume that's the case, and it doesn't just have 3 different spawn points on 3 completely opposite ends of the map) So having a single marker for them is a bit pointless. (It would be easier to have a skull on the side where you can mouseover and simply have an explanation "Can spawn in place of any common level 120 snail in the zone. Often spawns on the roof." "Can spawn in place of any elite hermit crab in the zone." Etc.

Then there's Sandcastle, which spawns when you use the Scrying Stone to find chests. It can spawn instead of a chest on ANY of the chest locations, in which there's HUNDREDS in the zone. So again, it'd be easier to have a skull marker on the side with an explanation on mouseover.

That way people can still keep track that they need them for the day if they're hunting, but you aren't littering the map with a million spawn points for them, but also aren't inaccurately telling people they ONLY spawn in this one place.

Unlike Soundless and a few other rares (you can find those out if you check the achievement page and check the individual rare pages, I can go through and get you a list if you need me to?), where we know it just has a few static spawn points as it's in the same area, these literally do spawn all around the zone, and spawn in place of their common variety.

---

It'd also be nice to have the option to disable the rares that aren't required for the achievement (without having to manually hide all of them), since they don't have a loot pool, and often only spawn when the quest to kill them is up.

I've been using TomCats Handynotes, but I vastly prefer this one for the simplicity. But right now, his is more complete, so I'll stick to it, but if you manage to get yours more up to date, I'll definitely be enabling it again for the zone.

I've added some Nazjatar treasure nodes

There going to be an update for the new zones? I like this style better than the tomcat ones.

Was missing a lot of Rare items.  I added them and uploaded to pastebin at:

https://pastebin.com/k66e8rwG

Just overwrite / edit Rares.lua with the content in that link.  Enjoy!

For some reasons, some rares reappear on the map even when i get the kill the next day

Like the Demon with Marius and Thed in Zuldazar or the Hermit  Crab in a cave in Stprmsong

Any idea

is there a reason that my icon disappears for the treasure when i have not looted it and still a ways away from it.
