BtWQuests is a free World of Warcraft addon that turns the game's scattered quests into clean, browsable storyline chains. Instead of guessing what to do next, you open a map-style panel that lays out each expansion's campaigns, zone questlines, and dependencies. It shows what you've completed, what's still open, and which quest unlocks the next one — perfect for lore, leveling order, and long achievement chains.

Quick facts

  • Type: Quest-tracking / questline browser addon (not a bot or automation — it just displays data).
  • Cost: Free. Grab it from CurseForge or the CurseForge/WoWUp app for easy updates.
  • What it shows: Quest chains grouped by expansion, then zone or storyline, in a branching tree view.
  • Progress tracking: Completed quests, in-progress steps, and locked prerequisites are marked so you can see your exact place in a story.
  • Best for: Following lore in order, catching up on old campaigns, and working toward unlocks tied to questlines (Allied Races, Pathfinder-style meta chains, reputation stories).

How to install BtWQuests

  1. Download BtWQuests from CurseForge, or search for it inside the CurseForge / WoWUp app.
  2. Let the app drop it into your Interface/AddOns folder automatically (or unzip it there manually).
  3. Launch WoW, then check the AddOns button on the character-select screen to confirm it's enabled.
  4. In-game, open the BtWQuests window from its minimap button or slash command and start browsing by expansion.

What is BtWQuests used for?

Mainly for making sense of WoW's messy quest web. You can follow an expansion's story start-to-finish, figure out which questline you abandoned three patches ago, or map the exact chain that leads to an unlock or achievement.

It's also handy on alts. When you're leveling a new character and want to hit the story beats in the right order, the chain view saves you from bouncing around zones or looking things up on a wiki mid-play.

Is BtWQuests still updated and safe?

BtWQuests is a long-standing display addon, so it's low-risk — it reads quest data, it doesn't touch your account or automate anything. As with any addon, only download it from a trusted source like CurseForge, and update it after major patches since quest databases can lag a bit right after new content drops.

Do I still need it at max level?

Yes, arguably more. At endgame it shines for catch-up: old campaigns, allied-race unlock chains, and reputation storylines you skipped. It lets you confirm exactly which prerequisite quests you're missing before a long grind.

If you'd rather skip the legwork entirely on a stubborn unlock or a lore chain you keep bouncing off, PewPewShop's vetted pro players offer coaching and play-together progression help — a clean, human-run way to get through the grind without the guesswork.
