Details! vs Skada vs Recount for WoW Forever

Updated 1 Nov 2026 · Forever status, versions and dates come from each add-on's page in our directory and change when authors release updates

All three count damage, healing and more per player. The difference that matters most right now is which ones have a Forever build.

Our verdict

Details! is the one to install now: it's the only one of the three with a Forever build at launch, and its death log is the most useful screen any meter has.

If Skada or Recount ship Forever builds later, they're fine choices for a lighter or more graph-focused meter. Their pages here update when that happens.
