FarmLog

World of Warcraft Classic addon that logs loot, monster kills, honor and instances. Know exactly what your farm session has yielded.

What it is for

You can track your farming session and know how much gold/hour you make. Good for general grinding, instance item farming, rep farm, tradeskill work, honor farm, know how many you killed in a rare BoE farm, etc etc.

FarmLog now tracks Black Lotus picking and shows respawn timers! (need DBM addon for timer bars)

Sessions

Many times you pause your farming to do something else in game, like doing an instance and afterwards continue to farm herbs. So you want to know how much herb farming yields and how much the instance run has yielded, but these are two different sessions! That's why you can name sessions and switch between them according to what you're doing.

Another thing is that the more time & data you have per session, the more accurate gold/hour metric you're going to see. For example, you can /fl switch Herbing when collecting herbs and /fl switch Fishing whenever you fish, do that for a week and you'll get a reasonably accurate gold/hour metric.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do some items appear under "Unknown"? When a loot log messages arrives, it does not contain the mob name that dropped it. Assuming that it came from the last killed mob because one may kill multiple mobs and later loot them all. So we need a loot window to appear, we then know what loot that mob dropped and make correct attribution. Sometimes, a loot is received without any loot window being opened, like for instance when someone in your group loots a mob with green item and you win the roll. In this case, the addon won't know which mob dropped it. This may also happen if you have addons like "Leatrix Plus" with "Fast loot" option enabled. This causes loot to be received before loot window is opened, so the addon doesn't know where it came from.

Changes

• 1.20
  • Updated diminishing value of honor to 10% following Blizzard announcement, this will start at 29-Nov 2020
• 1.19.4
  • Fixed logging of traded and mail received items. They won't be logged now, only looted items.
  • "Auto Resume BG Farms" option will now properly affect pausing of sessions when leaving BGs. If it's OFF, session won't be paused when leaving a BG.
• 1.19.3
  • Fixed tracking of award honor gain
• 1.19
  • Counting battle grounds count, as well as wins/loss count
  • BGs are not counted for instance lock count
  • Honor diminshing returns can be disabled for BGs (still not confirmed if it's enabled in BGs)
  • Added separate option to resume/pause a BG farm, so if you initiated a BG farm session, it'll know to pause when you leave BG and resume when youo come back.
  • Added level-up count
• 1.18.3
  • Fixed bug causing consumes used on different levels (character level up) to be shown seperately on the log.
• 1.18.2
  • Fixed (non) parsing of loot messages for non-english languages.
  • Fixed an error when starting new session when old one had consumes in it.
• 1.18.1
  • Added option for AH min quality, this will allow choosing for which item quality price will be taken from an AH scan. For instance, if min quality is Rare+, vendor price will be used for green items and below.
  • Fixed HUD positioning issue, it should now show correctly.
• 1.18
  • Consumes tracking! Will now log all (hopefully) consumes you've been using in your session. Their value will be deducted from the vendor price, thus affecting GPH. You can disable it from the options screen (/fl), or manually adjust consumes prices with /fl set [Item Link] 1 to set an item's price to 1 gold, it'll try to use Auctionator or TSM price first. If you find any missing consume, feel free to report in https://github.com/E1ila/FarmLog
• 1.17.9
  • With Auto Instance Switch enabled, FarmLog will now resume a session if current farm is an instance farm. When choosing a farm that's used in an instance, it'll bind the farm session to that instance and from that moment on, when you enter that instance while on this farm session, the addon will just resume it, instead of switching to "Dire Maul" farm. If FarmLog is set to another session, not related to DM, it will switch to "Dire Maul" farm session once you go into DM. Hope I explained it well, if not - just try and see how it works.
