Best addons for PvP rulesets and battlegrounds in WoW Forever

Updated 1 Nov 2026 · 5 of 5 picks have a Forever version · statuses come from the compatibility tracker

Forever has PvP and Roleplay PvP rulesets at launch, and a new 15 vs 15 battleground, Battle for the Darkspear Islands. Leveling on a PvP ruleset and playing objectives in a battleground need different tools.

None of these show anything the game doesn't already tell you: they make it easier to notice. Downloads promising more are scams.

    Battleground timers for objectives and respawns, from the BigWigs team. Has a Forever release; timers for the brand-new Darkspear Islands still need confirming in game.

Missing for now: Spy, the classic enemy-alert addon for PvP rulesets, has no Forever release yet. Its page tracks it, and we'll add it here when it ships.
