I recently got the mobmap addon and it has saved me so much time questing. Basically, it is a database like wowhead or thottbot, but in addon form. Since wow slows down my computer so much when I alt-tab its almost impossible to look anything up on the internet while playing wow.

The features I like best:

-Plug in the name of an npc and it will put a dot on the ingame map(and coordinates) of that npc
-Give you quest info and show quest chains
-Say you want to buy some apples for your cooking skill, just enter in the name of the apples and it will come up with all the vendors who sell em
-If you're looking for a quest item, it will tell you which mobs drop it and their approximate probability of dropping it AND where the monsters spawn/roam.


In addition to the addon, you have to download a database that has all the info in it. I've used it for a month or so and haven't had any problems with it(no keyloggers).

I tried this out last night -- I could never get it to put anything on the map. I also have Cartographer -- could that be screwing it up?

It does me no good to tell me the quest NPC I am looking for is in Netherstorm... I already knew that, I wanted a dot on the map.
