One Hour Forever for World of Warcraft: Forever

You have an hour.
This tells you what it’s worth.

One Hour Forever is a free addon for World of Warcraft: Forever. While you play, it measures where your time goes (questing, grinding, dungeons, travel, town) and what each hour earns you in experience and gold.

Upload the addon’s save file and see your own numbers: where your hours went, your pace, your fastest and slowest levels, and how your pace compares with other players.

No account needed. The file is read and then deleted; only the numbers are kept, under a private link that only you get. What we keep.

What it measures

Everything here is timed from your own play. None of it is estimated from a table or copied from a guide.

Where the hour went

Questing, grinding, dungeons, travel, town and standing idle, from your own sessions.

What your time buys

Experience and gold per hour, by zone and by level, measured while you played rather than guessed afterwards.

How your levels went

How long each level took you, which were quick and which dragged, and how your pace compares.
