HandyNotes: Legion (Broken Isles) Treasures and Rares
Want Battle for Azeroth treasures? I have something for that.
A HandyNotes plugin to show the Legion treasure items on your map. (That means it requires HandyNotes, so go install it as well.)
This includes:
- Items found in one-off chests that're mysteriously glowing purple.
- Items dropped by rare mobs.
Important note: Every zone has its own type of randomly-appearing treasure chest. These are genuinely random -- they're not always up, and they can repeat. As such, I don't include any of them. Only one-off chests are in this addon.
Items that you've already collected and mobs you've already killed won't be displayed. This uses the "flag" quests that the game relies on to keep track of the items. Sometimes these glitch; generally if they do so, you also won't have gotten achievement-credit / the item, so you'll likely still be interested in the item.
You can right-click on any treasure node and hide it, if you just don't want to see that one. If you have TomTom installed, you can also add a waypoint for that node.
To edit the settings, visit the HandyNotes config panel, expand the "Plugins" section, and click on "Legion". You can then choose which treasures to show, and whether to show ones you've already found.
Want to help?
If you'd like to submit corrections, please go into the settings as mentioned above and turn on "show quest ids". Then let me know the quest id for the node you want to correct, which will now appear in its tooltip.
If you'd like to submit a new node, you have two options:
- Tell me where it is. I'll go find it eventually and track down the more obscure details I need to add it.
- Gather these details yourself and send them to me:
- Zone and coordinates.
- What it gives you. This is mostly "a random gray, some order resources, and an artifact power item".
- The quest id associated with it. This is the tricky one. The easiest way to get it is to install QuestsChanged before you open the treasure, then open the treasure and check it to see what quest was triggered.
What else might help me find things?
- Handy Minimap Arrow will make your player-arrow on the minimap appear above all the notes I'm adding to it
- What's On The Map? will show a list of the vignettes currently up nearby
- Minimap Range Extender will make map vignettes visible from further away
Thanks, I took it out in the new release.
Suramar, 19.7 16.0
Artifact Power. In a cave.
Any way to change the icon? There isn't enough contrast between the icon and the map.
Either a new icon or recolorization of the current. It looks as if this uses an in-game icon?
How could I use my own?
In the settings, you can uncheck "use item icons", and it'll use the generic vignette treasure chest icon. (Latest alpha needed, since that was previously only applying to actual items, and most of the icons are artifact-power currency.)
Broken Isles, Suramar, Temple of Fal'adora 39, 54 New Treasure
Highmountain New Treasure found at 40, 57 inside a cave, cave entrance at... 40, 58
Awesome addon - thank you!
Not saving settings on log out.
How do i remove icon's. Ive looted the two treasures inside Temple of Fal'adora, yet every time i right click to remove this object from the map it returns after i relog.
I'm not seeing this happen.
I did see something related happen recently, and to rule it out for me, could you check your addons directory and tell me the exact name of the directory of this addon? (Capitalization is important here.)
Also, if you could go into the settings for the plugin ("Handynotes" in interface options, look in the plugins menu for it, and choose "LegionTreasures", and enable the "show quest ids" option, then tell me the exact questids associated with the reappearing nodes, that would be helpful.
Am so sorry, i was using the other addon mostly for the rares. ive changed to this one now, for treasures now. So nothing is wrong now :)
I am having the same issue. Two treasures found in Temple of Fal'adora and the icon remains on the map.
Addon directory is C:\Games\World of Warcraft\Interface\AddOns\HandyNotes_LegionTreasures
Quest ID on the icon is 43838
Found a treasure chest in Stormheim located at 39.56 57.42 inside a cave(entrance is right next to it).
Val'sharah, Lifespring Upper Cavern 81, 72 is wrong its at Lifespring Lower Cavern 52, 23 , can only access it from taking stairs down from upper cavern though.
what do i do if the game says to me "dependency missing"?
Requires HandyNotes.
The Coord on Azsuna 52 20 is wrong the correct coords in the cave is 51 24
Thanks! Confirmed coordinates are 51, 24 in the Leyhollow cave
Thanks, I've fixed that.
Is there a way to find out what treasures and rares I have missed in a zone? I am stuck at 29/35 for Treasures of Azsuna, and the marks didn't disappear after looting them.
