You should no longer be surprised by rogues or druids attacking you out of the blue. Spy will warn and sound a specific alert when it detects that an enemy player stealths. Spy will remember who your enemies are and will make sure you know when they are around. Usually you would add an enemy player to your Kill On Sight list when you are certain they will attack you. Spy will sound an alarm when a Kill On Sight enemy player is detected. This will let you prepare for attacking them by surprise. If enemy players are not using the Spy addon themselves then it is likely that you will know about them before they know about you. It will give you the time to determine whether you should prepare to fight or run away. How can Spy help you? Not wanting to be gankedīecause Spy will alert you whenever an enemy player is detected, it will be extremely difficult for them to attack you by surprise. This is actually another quote from the addon. Now that addons are shared and downloaded way more easily in massive scale compared to the 15 years old vanilla game, this could actually affect world PvP in such a way that LFG would have affected PvE. I really think it kills the thrill and the adrenaline of world PvP, the magic of not knowing what’s around the corner and having to be on alert, or the hype of chasing someone down waiting for the perfect moment to gank. How are you supposed to take people by surprise when an addon is literally telling you and spamming you an alliance/horde is nearby? What’s the point? I strongly believe the Spy addon is on the cheat side of the spectrum, it kills the thrill of world PvP but letting you have ominous knowledge about players’ positions. It's based off of another addon I made at one point called War Mode Tracker, but I wanted something that was more oriented towards the Classic PvP experience (since bounties and war caches aren't a thing in Vanilla). However, where do we draw the line among the addons, between cheating and having a useful advantage? Yes, LFG was banned because it was against the spirit of classic and would ruin the experience of a lot of people, while Bartender is pretty much fully harmless, as an example. PvP Tracker is a new WoW Classic addon I made to assist with keeping up with all the PvP information pertaining to your character. I love ganking people, camping them and making their life miserable.

I believe this addon to be an unfair advantage and an addon that goes against the spirit of classic, similar to what the LFG addon does, since it automatically detects players from the opposing faction and spams their location.

The addon in question is called Spy Addon. I’d like to talk for a minute or two about an addon that has been bothering me for quite bit.
