WoW Forever Leveling Addons

Choose by How You Level

For a guided quest order, RestedXP is one option. The addons are compared by fit for the way you play and by the coverage shown. These are recommendations by fit, not a speed ranking; a Forever file listing does not establish runtime support or a complete guide.

Questie's author documents map markers for quest starts, turn-ins and objectives. Guidelime displays a guide's steps and progress. Its README statement last checked October 6 described full Forever support as forthcoming; that dated statement does not verify current runtime coverage. Questie is the simpler starting point when you want locations rather than a prescribed route.Source: Questie README, Features; Guidelime README, What does it do?, checked Oct 6, 2026.

The RestedXP store extract captured October 18 marks Stage 1 Done, Stage 2 Active, and Stage 3 Coming soon; it also says the guide is not yet fully complete and places levels 35–60 after launch. Discovery and Legacy tracks are planned after launch. The older v4.11.17 addon package includes dungeon files labeled WIP; those files do not establish a complete Stage 2 release.

If you already subscribe to Zygor Elite, check its Forever launch coverage before buying another guide. If RestedXP fits, use the existing Forever faction choices for Alliance, Horde or both factions. Choose by the character you will play and the coverage available, not by a promised time to 60. If you plan to quest in Teldrassil, check its coverage before buying.

Forever Status by Addon

RestedXP's status uses its October 18 store extract; the dated file versions use the October 18 CurseForge extracts. Zygor's launch plan and price are from the cited vendor pages checked before this snapshot.

The October 18 CurseForge file-list extracts show Questie v12.1.0+v1.0.6 (released October 12), Guidelime v6.008 (October 15), and TomTom v4.3.12-release (October 6), each listed under the WoW Forever flavor; the projects' game-version lists include 1.60.1. These are dated package listings, not tests of loading, errors, or complete Forever quest data.Source: Questie files, lines 62–63, 101–108, 123–126, 145–149; Guidelime files, lines 62–63, 101–106, 120–123, 144–148; TomTom files, lines 62–63, 101–108, 141–149, 251. Parsed/indexed web text captured October 18, 2026; not raw HTTP bytes or a runtime test.

The RestedXP store extract captured October 18 listed $30 per faction or $45 for both. It was parsed/indexed text, not a raw page response, and no current cart or checkout total was tested. Check the coverage and final total before paying. For the two paid guides side by side, read RestedXP vs Zygor for WoW Forever.

Paid Route Guides

A paid guide sells the route itself, and the addon that displays it is free in both cases. The route tells you which quests to take, in what order, and where to walk next.

RestedXP sells three Forever products: Horde, Alliance and both factions. In the October 18 store extract, Stage 1 (Speedrun Guide) is marked Done, Stage 2 (Dungeon Leveling Guide) Active, and Stage 3 (Launch & Beyond) Coming soon. The product page also says the guide is "not yet fully complete" and places level 35–60 routes after launch. Its addon package has early dungeon files labeled WIP; a file listing does not establish that Stage 2 is a complete release. Details and dated coverage: RestedXP for WoW Forever.

Free Helpers

Free addons help with questing but don't sell a speed route. Questie is a quest helper; CurseForge files it under Quests & Leveling and Map & Minimap. Guidelime runs guides that players write or import. TomTom only draws the arrow.

The October 18 CurseForge extracts list Forever files for Questie, Guidelime, and TomTom; they are dated package listings, not runtime checks. A Guidelime author statement checked October 6 described full support as forthcoming; this dated statement is not a current coverage check. If free is the priority, what RestedXP gives away for free covers the free RestedXP addon and where the paid line starts. For bag, map, UI and every other kind of addon, WoW Forever addons covers what works on the Forever client.

Are leveling addons allowed?

Blizzard's UI Add-On Development Policy says add-ons must be free and bars fees for add-ons, premium features, and related services. The checked policy text does not mention Forever or classify RestedXP or Zygor's guide products; it is not a product-specific ruling or approval. The policy directs questions about a specific add-on to Blizzard's UI team.Source: Blizzard UI Add-On Development Policy, parsed/indexed text captured October 18, 2026; lines 16–19 and 34–36. Not raw HTTP bytes.

Blizzard also "reserves the right to disable any add-on functionality".Blizzard: UI Add-On Development Policy, parsed/indexed text captured Oct 18, 2026 10:31:32.161 UTC, result turn119view1, lines 34–36; not raw HTTP bytes. Treat any "Blizzard approved" or "cannot be banned" claim as the guide maker's own claim, not Blizzard's.

RestedXP's Forever Release Roadmap

Three Stages, With Different Completion States

In the October 18 RestedXP store extract, Stage 1 (Speedrun Guide) is marked "Done," Stage 2 (Dungeon Leveling Guide) is "Active," and Stage 3 ("Launch & Beyond") is "Coming soon." The page says the guide is "not yet fully complete." Early dungeon files labeled WIP are not a complete Stage 2 release. The extract came from parsed/indexed page text; it was not a raw origin response.

Stage 3 lists level 35–60 Forever routes for the Speedrun and Dungeon Leveling guides after launch; until they are complete, RestedXP says its existing Classic Era guides remain available for those levels. Discovery and Legacy are planned for after launch, with earlier availability possible if development is ahead of schedule. These are vendor roadmap statements, not a promise that the unfinished Forever routes are available now. Before you plan a dungeon-heavy route, read how dungeon XP and anti-boosting work in Forever.

The v4.11.17 package includes Forever dungeon files with WIP subgroup labels for Alliance 1-20 and Horde 1-22. They show work available to inspect, not a guarantee that every dungeon, quest or later level is covered. We checked the package and guide headers, not an in-game run.Reported, press or datamine, not confirmedSource: RXPGuides v4.11.17 release, Guides/Forever/dungeon/ headers, checked Oct 6, 2026.

What the Free Addon Already Ships

RestedXP's route files are public on GitHub, so you can see the beta work. Release v4.11.10 on September 25 lists these level ranges: Mulgore 1 to 6, Darkshore 16 to 19 and Redridge 19 to 20, plus a fixed Barrens start for Shaman and Warrior. Commits on September 26 add a work-in-progress Westfall route for Night Elves and Auction House steps for early caster levels.Source: RestedXP addon releases on GitHub, checked Sep 28, 2026.

Release v4.11.11, published later on September 25, adds Croaky as a group quest for Humans in Elwynn Forest and fixes how Forever profiles save. All of this is read from the code history. RestedXP hasn't said which routes a buyer can load today.

Plans Past Level 60

Everything RestedXP lists for after leveling is planned, not shipped. Its page says its addon "will also cover important progression after leveling, including attunements, dungeon keys, and the Tier 0.5 questline." It also lists an "Optimized Upgrade Finder" and an "Enhanced Talent Builder" as future features.

RestedXP's Forever order post says "your purchase includes all future updates and improvements at no additional cost."Source: RestedXP: World of Warcraft Forever guides are up for order now community.restedxp.com/world-of-warcraft-forever-guides-are-up-for-order-now/, checked Sep 28, 2026. If you already own one faction, its Loyalty Specials page offers the two-faction bundle "at a discounted price" but names no amount. For what a purchase covers right now, see what $30 buys before launch.

Zygor Elite: What the Subscription Includes

Price and the Free Sample

Zygor plans no separate Forever purchase: its September 15 post says the guides will arrive inside Zygor Elite. Quarterly billing at $40.00 works out to $13.33 a month, against $15.00 billed monthly. Elite's pitch promises "Access To Every Guide We Make Or Ever Will Make," which covers future guides, not a finished Forever library.

A free Zygor Basic account downloads "a free sample of our in-game guides," so you can try the Guide Viewer before paying. That sample comes from game versions Zygor already covers, because it has published no Forever guide content yet. Client setup is covered in Zygor setup for WoW Forever.

What Players Asked Zygor For

Players left requests in the comments under Zygor's September 15 post, but neither staff reply commits to a feature. One asked for "full zone by zone guides" plus profession and farming guides; a staff reply on September 18 said the team is "working on this and hope to have more info soon." Another asked for an option to finish every quest in a zone, and the September 21 reply promised to "pass it along to the content team."

Installing RestedXP and Zygor

RestedXP: Download, Export, Import

RestedXP's getting-started page lists three steps: download the addon, add your Battle.net ID, then import your guide in game. Delete any older copy and download the latest addon. Add your Battle.net ID in your account section, since purchased guides are bound to your account and that ID. Then click "Export" under Downloads, copy the string from the text file, right-click the overlay in game and choose "Import guide."Source: RestedXP getting started community.restedxp.com/start/, checked Sep 28, 2026. The page predates Forever and never names it.

Zygor: A Desktop Client

You install Zygor's guides through its desktop app. Zygor's manual calls the Zygor Client "a desktop app used to download and install our guides and addons," which also keeps them updated. Signing in takes a Zygor Basic or Elite account, and the client runs on PC and Mac.Source: Zygor installation manual content.zygorguides.com/support/manual/installing, checked Sep 28, 2026. A Manual Installation Package is the backup. Zygor warns it is "neither automatic nor error proof," so expect to repeat it by hand when the guides update.

License Terms Behind the Free Addons

Reusing Guidelime or TomTom code needs the author's permission: both show "All Rights Reserved" on CurseForge. Questie carries the GNU General Public License version 3 there.

The RestedXP addon has conflicting labels. Its GitHub repository ships a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 license file, while its CurseForge listing says "All Rights Reserved." RestedXP's custom-guides page calls it "a free open source addon."Source: RestedXP Guide on CurseForge, RestedXP custom guides page community.restedxp.com/custom-guides/, and RestedXP GitHub license; parsed/indexed text checked Oct 18, 2026, results turn38view0 lines 891/969, turn38view2 lines 62–63/96–97, and turn38view3 line 11. Not raw HTTP bytes. Nothing we found reconciles them, so we don't pick one.

Refunds and Cancellation

RestedXP: Refunds Are Discretionary

RestedXP says completed orders generally are not refunded. Its terms say it may consider exceptions at its sole discretion, with no guaranteed approval. A request for a guide that has not been downloaded must be made within 30 days, from an active account, with the required information; using an unsupported platform forfeits refund eligibility, the terms say.

Zygor: No Refunds, Cancel Anytime

Read together, Zygor's terms and homepage mean canceling should stop future charges without refunding past ones. Zygor's terms are shorter: "We do not offer returns or refunds, all sales are final."Source: Zygor terms and conditions, checked Sep 28, 2026. Its homepage separately promises "Cancel Anytime." Neither policy names Forever.

Does the beta already track cooldowns without an addon?

A Built-in Cooldown Manager, Off by Default

The beta has a Cooldown Manager built in, but it starts disabled; turn it on in Options under Gameplay Enhancement. Blizzard's September 24 beta notes say it pulls "critical information from the buff bar or action bar" into a spot you choose.Blizzard: WoW Forever Beta Development Notes, updated September 24, checked Sep 28, 2026. On September 24 only Druid, Mage, Priest, Warrior and Warlock could test it, and it did not support spell ranks yet. Blizzard planned more classes and rank support in later beta updates.

The October 1 beta development notes add Rogue and racial abilities, and remove the duplicate entries for each spell rank on supported classes.Confirmed for the betaSource: WoW Forever Beta Development Notes, October 1, Cooldown Manager section, checked Oct 1, 2026.

Known Gaps Listed in the September 24 Notes

Those notes list pet cooldowns, the Healthstone cooldown, Arcane Blast, and item enhancements such as Windfury or rogue poisons as unsupported.

In the September 17 Q&A, a developer said the team does not "want players to feel like they need add-ons in order to play the game," and named the built-in damage meter and cooldown manager.Blizzard: World of Warcraft Developer Q&A, September 17, 2026, checked Sep 28, 2026. Neither one plans a quest route, so leveling addons still do a job the base game does not.

Confirming an Addon Is Actually Forever-Ready

Check the Flavor and the File

If you install by hand, choose the file labeled "WoW Forever." The October 18 CurseForge extracts show Forever as a listed flavor under game version 1.60.1. They list Questie v12.1.0+v1.0.6 (October 12), Guidelime v6.008 (October 15), and TomTom v4.3.12-release (October 6). These package labels and dates do not establish that an addon loads without errors or contains every Forever quest.Source: CurseForge Forever files, Guidelime, and TomTom, parsed/indexed text captured October 18, 2026; lines recorded above. Not raw HTTP bytes or runtime testing.

Read the Interface Line

If the AddOns list on the character screen flags an addon as out of date, check its ## Interface: line first. Every addon folder carries a .toc file with that line. Questie's Forever file declares 16001, which lines up with the 1.60.1 client version, not the longer build number.

Forever Fixes in the Free Addons' Notes

Questie and Guidelime both list Forever fixes in their release notes, and Questie's go past a new file. Its notes add safeguards for what they call "Secret Values" in Forever, which caused Lua error spam in instances, plus support for native Forever quest greetings.Source: Questie Forever support release, checked Sep 28, 2026. Guidelime's v6.000 notes list "Initial work to support WoW Forever" and a fix that skips secret values in spellcast events. A September 22 commit added races and zones from Questie's Forever data, marked "not tested yet."

Can you run a paid guide and a free helper together?

None of the pages we checked documents a conflict between a paid guide and a free helper. RestedXP and Zygor sell guide content; Questie, Guidelime, and TomTom provide quest or waypoint help. WFG has not tested these pairings in a WoW Forever client. RestedXP and Questie in WoW Forever covers that one pairing in more detail.
