An in-game talent tree calculator and more!
(Note for PTR and Beta: some talents may not be showing correctly)
Usage is simple, click the minimap button, or type /tv or /talentviewer in chat to open the talent frame
Use the dropdown to pick between any class, and any spec, and view their talents
The talent frame looks similar to the default blizzard talent frame, and you can interact with it exactly like the default talent UI, except you cannot actually learn/unlearn any talents through this viewer 🙂
(this screenshot is taken from a Death Knight, and shows you can inspect and view any tree you want, and preview builds)
Supported features:
- Inspect the talent tree for any spec you like (including Evokers)
- Unlike some other addons, this works for newly created character who don't have any spec selected yet
- Select talents to preview a build
- Integrated into the Talent Tree Tweaks addon, that adds more information on tooltips, and more
- Shift-clicking talents links them in chat
- Import builds - if the import string is for another spec, the view will automatically to that spec's tree
- Export builds - exports to string, which you can then import into TalentTreeViewer, or into blizzard's new Loadout Import
- Search for talents, using the same magic logic as what Blizzard uses in their Talent UI
- Show the level requirement, together with the talent points spent, and allow you to spend points up to max level
- Add a checkbox to disable realistic restrictions (e.g. when you haven't spent enough points at the top of the tree, or when you refund a key talent), to allow to you more freely play around with the talent trees
Planned/work-in-progress features:
- Improve the look & feel to more closely match the blizzard talent UI - this has been accomplished, unless blizzard makes more changes to the UI again
- Add an elvui skin
- Either add a button to fill the starter build into the open tree, or open the starter build by default when you switch views
- Add a button to apply the Talent Tree Viewer build to your currently selected loadout, rather than having to export the viewer, and import in the default talent UI
Other ideas:
- Perhaps create a saved loadouts system, that allows you to save builds account-wide, which can be export and imported from the default UI
- Maybe allow selecting as many talents as you want while enforcing restrictions is disabled; which means you'd have negative talent points left
- Suggestions are welcome
This only works in Dragonflight!
Due to restrictions put in place by Blizzard, it's not possible to show up-to-date talent trees without updating this addon. Especially during beta and PTR periods, you can expect minor issues because of this. After release, it should become stable again
This addon integrates with BlizzMove to make the Talent UI movable, I strongly recommend using it
It's also integrated with Talent Tree Tweaks, which allows shift-click linking to chat, adds more information on tooltips, and much more, it's a must-have, even for the default Talent Tree experience
