Disenchant Buddy

Disenchant Buddy is a lightweight World of Warcraft addon that displays disenchant results on item tooltips. It helps players to quickly see what materials they can expect to receive from disenchanting an item.

When Auctionator is installed, then Disenchant Buddy will also show the auction prices for the materials.

Compatibility

Disenchant Buddy is compatible with and available for the following World of Warcraft versions:

• Classic Era/HC/Anniversary ✅
• Season of Discovery ✅
• Wrath of the Lich King ✅
• Cataclysm ✅
• Retail ❌ (not planned)

Installation

I suggest you use an addon manager like the CurseForge Client to ease the installation and update process. You will find DisenchantBuddy here on CurseForge.

Alternatively you can always use the latest GitHub release and manually install it:

1. Extract the contents of the zip file to your World of Warcraft Interface\AddOns directory:
   • Era/HC/Anniversary/SoD: World of Warcraft\_classic_era_\Interface\AddOns\DisenchantBuddy
2. Restart World of Warcraft or reload your UI
