World Quest Assistant
WQA helps you find world quest groups quickly and easily.
With just a couple of clicks, you can easily find and join a group, or create your own. When you are in proximity of a world quest, WQA will offer to find or create a group for you. One click of the button finds all open groups and another click will start applying to join them. Or, you can create your own group with a single click.
Key features:
- One-click support to find a group, create a new group, or join existing groups
- Keybinding support for full automation - just set the bind and then tap it to find or apply to groups, accept a group invite, create a new group, or leave a group after quest completion.
- Allows you to create a new group on demand - no waiting for group finder timeouts. Open up your quest to others without having to wait for a server jump.
- Allows you to prefer to connect to groups on your home realm, completely avoiding server jumps.
- Can leave groups automatically after a configurable delay on quest completion, or stay in the group with a keybind you set.
- Can find groups for quests by middle-clicking their icons on the map. Handy when you're sitting around waiting for that mob to spawn! Works with both the base UI and World Quest Tracker.
Can you add the idle timer and distance check to settings we can change/set inside the UI? Some of us might want larger distance or longer idle timers.
When doing two world quests that overlap in an area and both are completed simultaneously, the addon outputs into chat a duplicate line.
For example: Aggressive Reconnaisance & Left for Dead at Felsoul Hold in Suramar.
I joined a group for the latter, and it ended up such that I had the former at 96% progress while I only needed one more prisoner freed for the latter. Freeing the prisoners also counts towards Aggressive Reconnaisance, which is how I wound up completing both simultaneously.
When that happened, I had this show up in party chat:
Seems fairly minor, but I thought I should bring it up.
Edit: I was able to replicate this on a different character as well.
the bug i reported seems to have gotten worse over the builds, create new group.. it invites 1 person then delists you. also i'm not able to get the hotkey to search for new group, i bound it, press it when in that area and it does nothing.
have we been abandoned already ? :( no new builds in awhile.
One small bug I noticed when multiple WQs overlap in one area: If you complete a WQ that you aren't in a group for, it will send the message that you've finished the wrong WQ and ask if you want to leave the party. For example, in Azsuna there might be 2 WQs at the ghost area, one to pick up 3 books, and another to kill spirits and a named mob. If you are in a group for the latter, and pick up all 3 books, it'll say the other quest is complete and ask to leave group, when it shouldn't.
Not sure if this has been attempted before, but a suggestion: Just as we can middle-click to form/join groups for WQS, is it possible to add the same functionality to the skulls on Broken Shore?
In other words, right-clicking a Skull on the Broken Shore to form/join a group for that Elite.
I too am having a huge problem with the addon saying only 1 or 2 groups are found, however upon using the default UI at least 10+ are found. Why is this? D:
(Some of the descriptions were in other languages Russian/Spanish etc but group name was in english)
Sometimes when I'm in a group I'll suddenly leave group for no reason even though I'm not even doing any world quests. This happened while inside Court of Stars for a M+ run once (though it wasn't a big deal, I was just reinvited)
I think it might be related to the "Leave when flying" option or something?
Yikes. I thought I had the group leave stuff tamped down. I'll double-check it - it shouldn't *ever* be leaving while in an instance. I've seen the "silent party drop" happen but there's no "You leave the party" message, which is somewhat confusing!
I'll see what I can find!
You can track up to 5 world quests by sift clicking them on the map (or any other addon).
However, after tracking them and you middle click on the icon on the world map, the quests is untracked (but the search and invite process is started).
I'm also using Kaliel's tacker. Could it be made possible to middle click the world quests in the tracked list of world quests (used to be possible in WQGF)
Yeah, the untrack is a side effect of the hooking that is done to add the middle-click functionality. I may be able to keep it from untracking the quest if it was tracked prior to the click - I'll see what I can do.
Middle-click on a quest might be doable. I'll see if I can add that as an option.
It blocks using Focusing Crystal again
Very often when i fly to a new WQ it says that there are zero groups open... But when i search manually i find >5 groups with open spaces! This addon makes no sense so, even it is more handy than WQGF
Keep spamming search
1. When i do it again, i have no new groups to join, but still there a groups available in search
2. It's not a solution to spam the button, when it does not the thing it should
What is your client locale, and are you on the latest version? I relaxed the matching requirements a bit to facilitate groups across languages.
If you have "join pvp" unchecked then it'll ignore any groups led by people on pvp servers, as well.
Might be something with localization...
Using the newest version via twitch app and german client.
Happend with many quests minutes before. When i do the search via the eye from the addon it shows much fewer open groups than the standard search from the normal wq :(
I'm on an enUS client in the NA region, so my cross-language testing is somewhat limited. I've been able to successfully find Spanish-language groups with the search, though.
I'll keep working on it, though - if the base UI can do it, then WQA should be able to too!
