Gnomo Farmer: The Gold Farming Tracker for World of Warcraft
Every gold maker in Azeroth has asked the same question at least once: was that farming session actually worth the time? Gnomo Farmer answers it. This addon acts as your personal gnome accountant, logging every kill, node, and dungeon run so you always know your real gold per hour instead of guessing.
What Gnomo Farmer Does
At its core, Gnomo Farmer is a session tracker built specifically for farmers. It records session time, gold looted, vendor value, and the auction value of your haul using TradeSkillMaster or Auctionator prices when those addons are installed. Everything rolls up into one number that matters most: gold per hour, calculated with real auction data whenever it is available.
The addon splits farming into three dedicated modes, each with its own statistics and layout:
- Dungeons — farm old content while an instance lockout tracker watches the 10-instances-per-hour limit, showing entries remaining and when the next one unlocks.
- Open World — mob farming anywhere in Azeroth, with a loot timer that warns you before corpses despawn.
- Gathering — mining, herbalism, and similar sessions, tracking nodes gathered, nodes per hour, and the auction value of your materials.
Smart Selling Keeps Your Valuable Loot Safe
Gnomo Farmer for World of Warcraft does not just measure your gold, it helps you convert junk into it. One click sells your entire session loot at any vendor, and you choose exactly which item types go: junk, weapons and armor, materials, consumables, and more. A price safety net automatically holds back anything worth more than a gold value you set, the Never-Sell List protects items permanently with Alt+Click, and epic items are never sold. Your valuable drops stay in your bags while the trash turns into gold.
Alerts Built for Farmers
Small reminders make a big difference during long sessions. The loot timer warns you before corpses disappear, a valuable item alert fires when something drops above your chosen threshold, monks get a Black Ox Statue reminder, and a dungeon reset reminder appears when you leave an instance with a one-click reset button attached.
Session History and Interface Profiles
After each session, a summary shows your top three most valuable items, total gold earned, gold per hour, and a material breakdown with quantity, per-hour rate, and value. The history panel keeps your last 100 sessions and lets you compare them by zone, so you can quickly identify which farming locations have been the most profitable for you over time.
Visually, Gnomo Farmer ships with several interface profiles: Classic, Dark, Horde, Alliance, Pastel Pink, and an automatic option that follows your faction. Horde players get rising embers as an animated background, Alliance players get twinkling stars, and all windows are resizable by dragging the corner. The minimap button plays nicely with ElvUI, EllesmereUI, and button bags, and the addon is compatible with the Blizzard Addon Compartment.

Compatibility Across World of Warcraft Versions
Whether you play Retail or spend your evenings in Classic, TBC, WotLK, Cataclysm, or MoP, Gnomo Farmer is built to fit your version of the game. The addon works perfectly without TradeSkillMaster or Auctionator as well, so you can start tracking immediately and add auction pricing later if you want more precise gold-per-hour figures. It is available in English and Spanish.
If you prefer a hassle-free setup, the foxygame.net launcher installs Gnomo Farmer in a single click and keeps it updated automatically, so your session data and profiles carry over without manual file juggling. For anyone who wants a simpler route, that launcher also maintains a full addon catalog with version compatibility checks built in.
How to Install Gnomo Farmer
Installation is straightforward. Download Gnomo Farmer from your preferred addon source, then extract the folder into your World of Warcraft Interface/AddOns directory, making sure the folder name matches exactly. Restart the game or type /reload, and the minimap button should appear. From there, open the options panel, pick your farming mode, and start your first session. If you ever need to move the panel after rearranging your UI, /df reset brings it back to the center of the screen.
Final Thoughts
Gold farming without data is just guessing, and guessing rarely pays well. Gnomo Farmer turns every session into a clear report: what dropped, what it is worth, how long you spent, and whether that spot deserves a return visit. For players who take their gold seriously across Retail, Classic, TBC, WotLK, Cataclysm, or MoP, it is one of the simplest ways to farm smarter rather than longer.
