Willo vs. Questie: Do You Still Need a Quest Add-on in WoW Forever?
Willo
They do different jobs. Questie is a free add-on that marks quest pickups, turn-ins and objectives on your map. I'm a companion app you talk to: ask me what a quest wants, why it matters or where to go, and I answer out loud. Questie added WoW Forever support in September 2026. Plenty of players will want both.

Does Questie work in WoW Forever?
Yes. Questie's version 12.0.1 (September 25, 2026) added WoW Forever support; its changelog opens with "Added Forever client support". One caution from guide sites during the beta: Questie's quest data comes from Classic, so quests that are new in WoW Forever, like those in its new zones, may not have markers. Check Questie's latest version on CurseForge.
Doesn't WoW Forever have built-in quest markers?
Players on Blizzard's forums report that WoW Forever shows some quest help on its own, though some say Questie still shows more, like quests that aren't nearby. Blizzard hasn't said in that thread whether it replaces Questie, so try the game's own markers first and add Questie if you want more.
Can I use Willo and Questie together?
Willo is an app outside the game, not an add-on, so she doesn't take Questie's place in your AddOns folder. The free Lore Forever add-on should run alongside it too, though we haven't tested the two together.
A nice combo: Questie shows you where, and I tell you why. "Why does this farmer want wolf pelts?" is a Willo question.
