Connoisseur // Automatically use Your Best Food, Buff Food, Water, Heathstones, Potions, Bandages, Scrolls, and Pet Food

Connoisseur

Auto-updating macros for your best food, buff food, water, potions, healthstones, scrolls, soulstones, bandages, poisons, and explosives. One-click conjuring, smart Feed Pet, automatic vendor and bank restocking. Optimal nutrition, peak performance.

Features

🧞‍♂️ Auto-Updating Macros // Always picks your best food, water, potions, healthstones, mana gems, and bandages — rescans your bags whenever loot, level, or zone changes.

🎯 Smart Conjuring // Mages and Warlocks right-click their food, water, healthstone, or soulstone macros to conjure the item on the spot. Middle-click casts Ritual of Refreshment (Mage) or Ritual of Souls (Warlock) for the whole group. The rank auto-matches your target, so a lower-level friend always gets something they can actually use.

🦄 Class Buttons // Hunters get an all-in-one - Feed Pet macro that calls, feeds, mends, revives, and dismisses from a single button. Rogues get a dual-hand - Poisons applier. Druids can enable DruidMacroHelper powershifting. Night Elves and Rogues can stealth while eating or drinking.

📜 Scroll Buff Stacking // When you're missing scroll buffs, your Food macro turns into a one-tap scroll applier — fires every missing scroll on you, then flips back to food on the next press.

🛒 Restocker // Keep a per-character Restock List and Connoisseur runs the errands: buys from vendors and moves items to and from the bank automatically. It never sells anything. Type /crs.

Setup

1. Install the add-on, ideally using CurseForge or Wago.
2. Log in. Connoisseur scans your bags and creates macros in your General macro tab.
3. Drag the dash-prefixed macros (- Food, - Water, - Health Potion, etc.) onto your action bars.
4. Optional: type /foodie to fine-tune scroll buffs, buff food, pet food, and class options.
5. Optional: type /crs and add items to your Restock List — Connoisseur keeps you stocked at every vendor and bank stop.
6. Never miss a meal! Breakfast, second breakfast, elevenses, luncheon, afternoon tea, dinner, supper… (=

Item Selection Priority

For each consumable category, Connoisseur compares every usable item in your bags using this priority order:

1. Buff food preferred (when Buff Food is enabled and Well Fed is missing)
2. Percentage-based items preferred over flat values
3. Highest restore value wins
4. Free conjured items beat purchased items of equal value
5. Lowest vendor sell price breaks ties (use up cheap items first)
6. Hybrid food+water items preferred or avoided depending on the slot
7. Fewest total in bags breaks the final tie

Items are filtered out if you don't meet the level requirement, lack the required profession skill (First Aid for bandages, Alchemy for certain potions, Engineering for explosives), require an engineering specialization you haven't learned (Goblin Engineer), or are in the wrong zone. Explosives are ranked by their minimum damage.

Connoisseur Restocker

Open the Restock List with /crs, drop items in from your bags, and set how many of each you want to carry. At a vendor, Connoisseur buys you back up to your target — with an optional reputation requirement per item, since better standing means better prices. At the bank, it tops up your bags from your stash and deposits the extra. Each item has its own Withdraw, Deposit, and Buy toggles, so one list runs your whole consumable logistics chain.

Every character keeps its own list, and you can copy, rename, or delete profiles right from the window — handy for raid-night versus farming loadouts. Restocker never sells anything: too many of an item is left untouched.

This feature started life as a separate add-on: Connoisseur ships an updated version with bug fixes and UX improvements that couldn't get rolled into the upstream builds — see History below.

Class Features

Mages can right-click Food, Water, or Mana Gem macros to conjure items. Middle-click casts Ritual of Refreshment. Targeting a lower-level friendly player auto-selects the appropriate conjure rank.

Warlocks can right-click Healthstone or Soulstone macros to create them. Middle-click casts Ritual of Souls.

Hunters get an all-in-one - Feed Pet macro. Left-click feeds your pet the cheapest food that still gives max happiness. Right-click or entering combat casts Mend Pet. Shift forces Revive Pet. Ctrl dismisses. If your pet is dead but dismissed, it auto-switches to Revive Pet.

Rogues get a - Poisons macro: left-click poisons your Off Hand, right-click your Main Hand, middle-click opens the poison crafting window. Pick a poison type per hand in the options, and existing poisons are replaced automatically. Rogues can also enable Stealth Eating, which stealths you while you snack.

Night Elves can enable Stealth Drinking and Stealth Eating, which append Shadowmeld to the Water or Food macro so you vanish while you refresh. Pick one — eating or drinking after you stealth breaks your stealth.

Settings

Type /foodie or open Options > AddOns > Connoisseur to configure the add-on.

Prioritize Buff Food // The Food macro prefers items that grant the Well Fed buff, but only when you don't already have it. Can be restricted to party or raid only.

Scroll Buffs // Your - Food macro doubles as a scroll-buff button. When you're missing scroll buffs, the macro turns into a dedicated scroll-applier — one tap fires every missing scroll on you, off the global cooldown, then flips back to food on the next press. Scrolls always target you, are skipped when a class buff already covers the same stat at equal or greater value, and the macro reverts to food mode immediately when you target a friendly player so it stays safe for Mages conjuring for friends. Firing order: Agility, Strength, Protection, Intellect, Spirit, Stamina.

Explosives // Choose the click layout for the - Explosives macro. The @player option skips the targeting reticle and sets the explosive off right at your feet — ideal when your target is in melee range — while Toss uses the normal targeting reticle. Default: Left-Click @Player, Right-Click Toss. (Keybind presses count as left-click.)

Pet Food Buffs // Uses Kibler's Bits or Sporeling Snacks on your pet when its Well Fed buff is missing. Requires level 55+. Can be restricted to party or raid. Pet food only fires in food mode — if you're missing scroll buffs, scrolls go first.

Ignore List // Tell Connoisseur to skip an item it's currently picking. Right-click the minimap button to add the current best food. Middle-click to clear the list. Also clearable from the settings panel.
