How To Install The Questie Add-on For World Of Warcraft: Classic?
Going through the original version of World of Warcraft is quite a challenge - 17 years back, quests weren’t so easy and the game punished you for mistakes much more. But in the end, among other things, that’s what fans loved the Azeroth for! In this guide, we’ll help you through Blizzard’s cruel world by discussing one of the more helpful add-ons (Questie) and showing you how to install it. Let’s get started!

What are add-ons in WoW Classic?

When Blizzard released the original version of World of Warcraft, many players found the gameplay too difficult and accused the creators of failing to improve some games’ features. WoW developers decided to solve this problem with add-ons, i.e., extensions that are supposed to make gameplay easier or more comfortable.

There are several sites where you can download add-ons for World of Warcraft, the most popular one is curseforge.com, with over 8,500 add-ons available.

Why should you use the Questie add-on?

In World of Warcraft: Classic, we don’t have any markers indicating where our quest objective is. If the player didn’t know the world of Azeroth, he had to look for a place where he could complete the quest on his own. This had its advantages - it made players contact each other, ask questions about where and how to complete a quest, which contributed to the formation of the first guilds and forums.

Nevertheless, for many players (especially new ones) the lack of such a marker could be very inconvenient. The Questie add-on solves this problem; after installing it, all places related to your quest in will be highlighted on the map like this:
