New to Midnight, or juggling a stack of alts? Midnight Helper is your one window for the whole week — clean enough for a brand-new max-level player, deep enough for a min-maxer. Just hit 90 and not sure what to do? Open it and follow along. Have ten alts to keep straight? See them all at a glance.

Midnight Helper is an all-in-one utility addon for World of Warcraft Retail (Midnight Season 1). It brings weekly planning, Delves, Great Vault tracking, achievement hunts, a live class-layout coach, on-screen combat helpers, standalone route guidance, and reference guides into one compact window — with full UI support in seven languages.

See it in action

Take a look at the screenshots for a feel of the addon in play — the This Week dashboard (your whole week at a glance), the class keybind coach (your live spellbook mapped onto a clean keyboard layout), the on-screen route arrow, the Great Vault Advisor ranking your loot choices, and the Delve Coach with per-boss tips.

Highlights

Beside Blizzard's own windows

• Open your character sheet and a small panel appears next to it: missing enchants, empty sockets, your tier set, and which slots have hit their upgrade-track ceiling.
• The Mythic+ window shows your Great Vault dungeon row with the item level each filled slot is offering. The Adventure Guide shows the tips for whichever boss you selected, for your role. The mount collection shows your wishlist. The profession window shows what's waiting on that profession — Knowledge left to spend, and your trainer weekly.
• Panels follow the window when you move it, and you can drag them wherever you like — they remember. /mh panelreset puts them all back.

This Week (home)

• "Next up" leads the page: the single most useful thing you can do right now, with a Take me there button that sets the route, and a tally of how far you are through the week. While you're levelling it never proposes endgame content you can't do yet.
• Home dashboard: weekly reset countdown, account-wide Great Vault status, this week's world boss, weekly chores (SMC, keys, shards), Ritual Sites and Void Assaults with one-click routes, and shortcuts to Rares, Raids and your mount hunt. Fold any section away — your choice is remembered.
• Quiet touches that look back, not just ahead: a Codex tip of the day, and milestones that mark your genuine firsts once and never nag again.

Collectible mounts

• Collectible mounts tab — a checklist of the 19 new Midnight mounts: a green tick for the ones you own, a red cross for the rest.
• Live progress per mount (renown level, meta-achievement steps, items banked), how to get it in one line, and a floating 3D preview beside the window when you hover a name — drag to spin.
• Hover a Voidlight Marl line to see your balance on every character.
• Mounts that are pure RNG — a rare drop, a puzzle, a hidden quest chain — show no progress bar at all, because there is no honest number to show.

Raids

• Raids page — boss steps for all three Season 1 raids and their nine bosses (The Dreamrift, The Voidspire, March on Quel'Danas), with tank/healer/dps lines and clickable spell links. Boss names come from the Encounter Journal, so they follow your game language.
• The Raid Coach window still opens by itself the moment a boss pull starts; the page is for preparing beforehand.
• Search a boss by name to jump straight to its steps — 52 bosses across dungeons and raids.

Leveling & Layout — the class coach

• A live keyboard layout that reads your actual spellbook and shows every ability on the key it belongs on, following one clear, universal keybind standard — so a new alt or a fresh spec is instantly readable.
• Covers all 13 classes and 40 specs — including the new Devourer Demon Hunter. Most specs are built automatically from what you can currently cast (no wrong or missing spell IDs); a few have hand-tuned maps that act as overrides. The layout re-draws itself as you level, swap talents/loadouts, or change spec.
• Spell-strip cards under the keyboard group your kit by purpose — builder, spender, AoE, interrupt, movement, defensives, dispel/CC, cooldowns and self-heals — each with a real in-game tooltip. Healers get a dedicated mouseover single-target heal card, while raid heals stay on keys.
• Consumables & extras bar: flasks, food, weapon oils/runes, augment runes and other non-keybind essentials with live ready/missing status.
• In groups helper: interrupts, defensives and party tips for the content you're running.
• A Midnight 80→90 leveling tips page for the current level push (path, XP, unlocks, consumables, gear, hand-off).

On-screen helpers

• Missing Buff reminder — a movable, resizable icon appears when you can cast a maintainable class buff you don't have active (raid buff, form, shield, weapon imbue, poison, stance, pet, ally buff or Paladin aura). Click it to cast (out of combat). Own, verified data across every class.
• Openables tracker — a movable button with a count badge and list for openable bag items (caches, lockboxes, satchels, quest containers). Left-click opens the next; items you can't open yet are hidden; a sound plays on a new drop.
• Fast Mark bar — mark your target with the raid icons, drop world markers on the ground (left-click set, right-click clear, clear-all) and run a ready check. Appears only while you're in a party or raid.

Navigation & routes

• Standalone route arrow — Midnight Helper draws its own on-screen direction arrow (rotates toward the target, shows live distance, drag to reposition) and drives the game's own map waypoint, keeping it on your next open stop and advancing it the moment you arrive. No TomTom required.
• Per-content icon and colour on the arrow — rare (red), treasure (gold), achievement (yellow), reset route (blue) — so you can tell at a glance what it's guiding you to.
• Plays nicely with your setup: if WaypointUI is installed the route is handed to its in-world pin; if TomTom is driving its arrow, Midnight Helper stays out of the way; with neither, its own arrow guides you.

Achievements

• Achievements tab for Midnight's collectible hunts: Treasures, The Highest Peaks (telescopes), Midnight Lore Hunter and the zone rare-hunter achievements across Eversong Woods, Zul'Aman, Harandar and Voidstorm — live per-node progress and one-click routing to whatever you still miss.
• Light Up the Night meta breakdown (the four zone metas) with live progress toward the Brilliant Petalwing mount; per-card renown and collectible tracking; expandable checklists with waypoint buttons and how-to hints.

Rares

• Rares tab with per-character weekly tracking: pick the nearest incomplete rare or build a full route (nearest-neighbour ordering, world-coordinate distances).
• Live rare-nearby alerts — sound + on-screen toast when a tracked rare is up near you, even with the window closed; distance-gated; clicking the toast steers you to the rare and then returns you to the route you were on — whether you kill it, someone else does, or it's already gone when you arrive.

Delves & weekly progress

• Delves dashboard: currencies, season progress, and bountiful tracking.
• Great Vault tracker (World / Dungeons / Raids) on the Delves tab.
• Great Vault Advisor on Blizzard's Great Vault loot screen — ranks choices vs. your gear (ilvl, guide stat weights, tier sets); Auto / Raid / M+ profiles; optional Pawn when installed.
• Reset-day reminders and subtle highlights when a character has claimable vault rewards (chat, minimap ping, login popup — configurable).
• Travel Assistant for sensible cross-zone hops toward delve entrances.

In-delve tools

• Delve Coach — route, trash, and boss tips for all 11 Midnight Season 1 delves; resizable panel; boss 3D preview with scroll-zoom; spell tooltips where IDs are known.
• Delve Party Share — send coach tips to party, raid, or instance chat; recipients do not need this addon.
• Delve consumables — quick-use panel for RAID-R Mini and Trovehunter's Bounty when you carry them; auto-shows on delve entry; minimap launchers visible only during an active delve.
• Valeera curio advisor — role-based curio suggestions on the Delves tab and a popup at repair / gossip NPCs.

Account & professions

• Account snapshot — per-character overview (keys, shards, undercoins, item level, profession weekly currencies in tooltips), with a sort/filter toolbar, a stale-since-Wednesday badge, and compact vault status per row.
• "Where do my Knowledge Points go?" — the Professions overview names the tree to fill, then the exact node to spend on once the recommended trees are done, and lists every open choice with what it actually does — read live from the game, so it works for all 11 professions and in your own language. The recommended build order is checked against the current guides per profession. Where the best pick is genuinely your call, it explains the options instead of pretending there's one right answer.
• Professions 101 beginner course — each chapter opens with a plain-language intro before the build text and tells you where to actually click to spend points (the Specializations tab). A Guided mode wizard walks a total newcomer through learning and levelling any of the 11 professions, ticking steps off as your skill grows.

Gear: what to do when a slot is maxed

• /mh tracks lists which equipped slots are at their upgrade-track ceiling and names the two ways onward: the Great Vault, and crafting.
• Including the part that is easy to miss — top-tier crests are earnable solo, through high Bountiful Delves and repeatable Tier 6 Ritual Sites. You do not need a raid group.
• A Codex entry walks through placing a crafting order: sparks, crests, missives, and the trap that sinks most first attempts (the crafter cannot supply your sparks or crests).

Guides & reference

• Midnight Codex — Season 1 handbook (Start Here, weekly loop, currencies with live balances, delves, M+, raid, world content, professions); Open links jump to the matching tab.
• Guide — compact reference / advisor.
• Macros — interrupt and team macro templates with class context.
• Role Academy — tank, heal and DPS learning tracks, each with a spec-aware toolkit: the cooldowns and personal defensives your spec actually has, with tooltips on hover. Healers also get their cooldowns labelled by purpose and a "what can I dispel?" reference.
• Consumables — per-spec suggestions with Wowhead-backed data and guide search preview.
• SMC City Guide — Silvermoon City pins with waypoint buttons; optional weekly/hub checklist.
• Addons tab — companion helpers (e.g. Platynator integration).
• Global search routes keywords to the right tab (delves, consumables, academy, macros, city pins, and more).
• In-game changelog window.

Notes

• Great Vault and alt snapshot values reflect the latest saved data per character. Log each alt at least once after weekly reset for a complete account picture.
• The Layout coach reads your live spellbook, so it shows only what your current loadout can cast (an M+ build and a raid build can differ).
• Raid target and world markers only take effect in a party/raid, per Blizzard — the Fast Mark bar shows there.
• Game data and recommendations may change with patches — verify quest IDs and weekly pins after major updates.

Requirements

• WoW Retail (see addon TOC for current interface version).
• Optional: TomTom or WaypointUI for enhanced in-world navigation — Midnight Helper works fully without either.

Credits and References

• Wowhead for public game-reference validation and lookup support.
• Icy Veins for external leveling and talent reference links.
• TomTom and WaypointUI for optional waypoint integration.
