Is there an addon out there that can keep track of my 24 toons and each one that has done the daily dungeon or daily whatever?( Take love dungeon for instance) Just curious.
Also, feel free to let me know about other addons that are an asset for altholics like myself!(besides Altoholic, I already have that one installed.) Thanks!
Aside from that one, I also use Altoholic like yourself (which, thankfully, was picked up by a community member for future management, since the original author tapped out.)
“GetLink” can be helpful as well when it comes to locating items. Sure, Altoholic has a search, but GetLink can be used on the command line. So, for example, if you want to see how many Riverbud you have across all your toons, you’d just type:
/gl Riverbud
Which would bring up a link to Riverbud - hover it and the tooltip info from Altoholic will show which toons and how many.

I’m mentally going through my addons and I can’t think of any others that directly relate to alt management.
SavedInstances is quite the mod but it has some serious issues if you have a LOT of characters on same server. The text becomes super tiny and impossible to read.
Yeah, GetLink sure is. Not only do I use it all the time like I described above - just to see where items are and how many I have - but it’s useful any time you need to look at an item. Any item, like a pet, mount, gear … literally just /gl (partial name) and then hover the tooltip for info.
Yeah, I hear ya, I am old school myself. I have documents for mission progress I need to track, “To-Do” lists, etc., as well as spreadsheets for tracking my wealth goals and long-term boss kills. Those things are beneficial to have, and there aren’t really any decent addons that track these things to the degree of detail or in the aesthetic manner I want.
Thing is, with SavedInstances, I literally just need to hover the icon and all my lockout information appears. It allows me to keep my second monitor free for other things, like maybe the other documents I maintain… or MusicBee… or Netflix LOL. When I don’t want to see the info anymore, I move the mouse away from the icon. Access to the info couldn’t be easier.
In addition, SavedInstances eliminates the need to maintain yet another document. It records the kills and keeps track of the lockouts all on its own; no need for you to interact.
It also keeps track of emissaries, warfront completion, world boss kills, island expeditions, currencies and weekly quests in addition to the dungeon and raid lockouts. All of this in a fully and easily customizable package.
No, I don’t work for SavedInstances LOL
But honestly, if I was suddenly teleported to the Bizzarro universe and ended up as an “Addon Salesperson” then I would surely recommend it to my customers. It’s uber-convenient, and for what it does, it beats a manually maintained document by a country mile.
I have exceeded Altoholic’s abilities… so I had to rely on an out of game solution. An addon that takes all the information, like Alto, but without a UI trying to load it all in game on demand.
