About Rarity

Inspired by Bunny Hunter, Rarity tracks how many chances you've had to obtain various rare items throughout the game. It will tell you how likely you are to obtain the item, track how long you've been farming for it, etc. Primarily, this is useful for farming companion pets and mounts, but it also supports virtually any item including patterns and designs, archaeology projects, etc.

Features

  • Provides an LDB feed, tooltips, and progress bar, allowing you to track items of your choice

Includes all the features of Bunny Hunter, plus:

  • Fully user configurable—you can add things to track on your own
  • Supports zone-wide drops (i.e. Hyacinth Macaw)
  • Supports containers (i.e. White Polar Bear)
  • Supports two-level loots (i.e. Disgusting Oozeling)
  • Supports archaeology projects (i.e. Scepter of Azj'Aqir)
  • Supports fishing (i.e. Sea Turtle)
  • Supports item usage (i.e. Mojo)
  • Supports items dropped from bosses that require a group to defeat (i.e. Flametalon of Alysrazor)
  • Supports items obtained from holiday boss bags (i.e. Big Love Rocket)
  • Supports some special cases (i.e. Elementium Geode, Mysterious Camel Figurine)
  • Supports things other than pets and mounts (i.e. recipes, legendary components, etc.)
  • Will properly ignore skinning
  • Lets you modify your kill count without having to edit saved vars, in case you started farming before you installed Rarity
  • Automatically imports data from Bunny Hunter
  • Shows an "achievement" alert when you finally obtain the item!
  • Automatically scans you to determine if you already have any companions or mounts
  • Automatically scans your boss kill statistics to keep track of attempts for many items
  • Shift-click to report your progress to chat
  • Sort items by name, difficulty, or percent complete
  • Tracks how long you've been farming this session, day, week, and month

You should also install

  • Rarity works best with an LDB display like Fortress, Button Bin, or Titan Panel. If you don't have a display, turn on Rarity's minimap icon. There are lots of displays available — if you don't like one, try another!
  • AddonLoader is highly recommended. This will let you keep the configuration UI unloaded until you need it.
  • Collectinator is a good companion add-on to Rarity. It will show you where to obtain everything that Rarity tracks.
  • Archy is recommended to replace the default Archaeology UI, which Rarity has been known to cause problems with.

    I know it may be early, but are new pets and mounts from 5.3 planned to be added soon ?

    Eventually. I'm extremely busy with other projects. I'm not aware of any new mounts. The pets are kind of silly in Rarity, in my opinion, since they have such high drop rates, but people seem to want them.

    I noticed that if you find an item that rarity is counting the kills and you are in a group where you have to roll for it, you get that achievement like frame twice and also twice the notice in the tooltip showing this information: found that rare item after x tries and found that item after 0 tries if you won that roll.

    thank you for this addon by the way. i'm happy having an addon that makes me not feeling like wasting my time farming something but instead give me a feeling of my progress.

    You're welcome! I'll need a bit more information, specifically which item you had this issue with. There a LOT of items in Rarity!

    Looting an item twice will cause the achievement to appear twice, this can't be fixed. The egg is unique, so the counter is intended to stop counting when you have one in your bags. This is correct.

    Buying a Rarity item from a vendor will always trigger the achievement; this can't be fixed. Skyshard is intended to be farmed solo, so that is working as intended.

    The same with the primal egg : I found one, but bags were full. Sell gray items and looted the egg again makes rarity counting it twice.

    But then counter freezes to 0 when killing other direhorns (was ther for the pet)

    Sorry i gave no precise answer to the start. so far i had this with primal eggs. i accidently sold one to a vendor and rebuying it made rarity think i just got one.

    skyshard is the 2nd item i got it with. i lootet a mob with that item in it, rarity got that achievement frame and on winning the roll i got that frame again.

    The new mounts from the Zandalari Warbringer are not displayed in the tooltip, it's because they are listed as "dropped from boss" instead of "dropped from NPCs"?

    Uncheck "Hide high chance items" from within the Options screen. I just pushed out a new build that makes this the default.

    When first installing this addon, a lot of mounts gets data from amount of kills (e.g. Ashes of Al'ar)..

    How come, Deathchargers Reins doesn't do this also? Baron is in the statistics, so it should be easy to get, like the others..

    The statistic for Baron was bugged, so it cannot be used. If Blizzard fixed it, let me know and I can reinstate. You should go kill him once and observe if the statistic goes up.

    Thanks for checking that. I'll put the statistic back in for the next build.

    Killed him once, and statistics went from 27 (much too low number, but probably just because it have been bugged like you mention) to 28..

    AddOn went from 0 to 1 tries :(

    Just installed this Addon, and it seems like a nice one..

    However, (with default settings), Azure Whelpling is listed as "Already Known" (correct), but Dark Whelpling isn't (wrong, as I have this too).

     

    Bug?
