Description

What is Gatherer?

Gatherer is a gathering profession addon that records the locations of herb nodes, mining veins, and treasure chests on your minimap and world map, building a personal database of resource spawns over time.

Categorized under Map & Minimap, and Miscellaneous, this addon is a must-have for players seeking to improve their World of Warcraft experience on private servers.

Key Features

Automatic node detection and recording when you gather herbs, ore, or open chests
Minimap icons showing nearby recorded node locations with node type identification
World map overlay displaying all gathered node data for the current zone
Import and export functionality for sharing node databases with other players
Node filtering by type letting you show only herbs, only ore, or only treasure
Gathering statistics tracking total nodes gathered and zone-specific counts
HUD waypoint mode for following efficient gathering circuits
Database merging for combining data from multiple characters

Why Gatherer is Essential

Gathering professions drive the WoW economy, and knowing spawn locations is the difference between a profitable farming session and wasted time. Gatherer builds an ever-growing map of resource locations as you play, eventually revealing optimal farming circuits. On private servers where external databases may be inaccurate, your personal data is the most reliable source.

Supported Expansions

Gatherer is available for MoP, WoD, WotLK, Cataclysm, Legion, Classic, and TBC. Whether you play on a Classic private server or a modern expansion realm, this addon enhances your gameplay across all supported versions.

How to Install Gatherer

Place the Gatherer folder in your AddOns directory. Nodes appear on your minimap automatically as you gather. Open the world map to see all recorded locations. Use /gatherer to access import/export and filtering options.

Installing Gatherer on a private server

Gatherer is made by jcarrothers. DivineTop hosts copies built for older game clients so they work on private servers.

Which version do you need?

Private servers run older game clients, and an addon only loads properly on the client it was built for. Pick the download that matches your server's client. To check an addon you already have, open its .toc file: the ## Interface: line should match the number below.

Client	Patch	Interface	More addons
Vanilla (Classic)	1.12.1	`11200`	Vanilla addons
The Burning Crusade	2.4.3	`20400`	TBC addons
Wrath of the Lich King	3.3.5a	`30300`	WotLK addons
Cataclysm	4.3.4	`40300`	Cataclysm addons
Mists of Pandaria	5.4.8	`50400`	MoP addons
Warlords of Draenor	6.2.4	`60200`	WoD addons
Legion	7.3.5	`70300`	Legion addons

Install steps

Download the Gatherer build for your client from the Downloads panel above.
Extract the zip into Interface/AddOns inside your World of Warcraft folder. Create the AddOns folder if it doesn't exist yet.
Check the folder name matches the .toc file inside it, for example AddOns/Gatherer/Gatherer.toc. Downloads from GitHub often add -master or -main to the folder name, which stops the addon from loading, and the 1.12.1 client is especially strict about this.
Start the game and click AddOns on the character screen. Enable Gatherer, and tick Load out of date AddOns if it shows as out of date.

Lua errors right after installing almost always mean the build doesn't match your client. Delete the folder and download the version for your patch.
