RestedXP and Questie in WoW Forever: do you need both?
Routes and quest help are different jobs.
Questie helps with quests, RestedXP supplies leveling guides, and neither project's docs confirm whether both can be enabled together on the same WoW Forever client.
Quick answer
No. RestedXP provides leveling guides, while Questie is a quest helper; both list Forever files, but simultaneous compatibility is undocumented.
- RestedXP GuideIts CurseForge listing describes it as "In-game Leveling Guides" and shows a WoW Forever v4.11.11 file dated September 25, 2026.
- QuestieIts CurseForge listing calls it "The Classic Quest Helper" and shows a WoW Forever v12.0.1+v1.0.4 file dated September 26, 2026.

Do RestedXP and Questie work together?
Questie's September 25 release notes say it added Forever client support; the September 26 CurseForge listing shows the newer v12.0.1+v1.0.4 file. That is a release trail for Questie itself, not evidence of an integration with RestedXP.
The project pages, RestedXP setup manual, and Questie release notes checked for this guide do not document whether both addons can run at once or name a conflict between them. WoW Forever Guides has not tested them side by side, so treat simultaneous compatibility as undocumented rather than guaranteed.
Which one should you choose?
- Want an authored leveling route? Choose RestedXP for that job and check the Forever guide details before buying.
- Want quest help and map information? Questie is described for that job in its project listing.
- Want both jobs? Both list a Forever file, but the checked documentation does not settle how they behave together. Do not read two Forever labels as a compatibility guarantee.

Frequently asked questions
Does RestedXP replace Questie?
The sources describe different roles: RestedXP provides in-game leveling guides, and Questie is a quest helper. They do not say that one replaces the other.
Do both addons have WoW Forever files?
Yes. The captures checked on September 28, 2026 list RestedXP Guide v4.11.11 and Questie v12.0.1+v1.0.4 under the Forever flavor. Check each project's current file page before installing because listings can change.
Does RestedXP require Questie?
RestedXP's setup material reviewed here does not list Questie as a requirement. That is a limit of the checked documentation, not a side-by-side test.
Can they conflict when both are enabled?
The sources used here do not report a conflict, but they also do not guarantee that both run together. Simultaneous compatibility remains undocumented in the sources checked for this page.
