Grind Timer  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)
Version: 1.13.7
by: Tirilance [More]
Grind Timer is a simple experience tracking addon to track your leveling progress in a variety of metrics.

Grind Timer is able to display:
  • Estimated time in hours and minutes until your goal
  • Experience needed until your goal
  • Estimated experience gain per minute
  • Estimated experience gain per hour
  • Estimated number of levels gained per hour
  • Levels in current session
  • Estimated number of kills needed until your goal
  • Kills in current session
  • Kills in the last 15 minutes
  • Estimated number dungeon runs needed until goal
  • Estimated number of dolmens needed until goal



Notable Nonobvious Addon Features:
  • Right click on the metric labels directly to more easily select a different metric.
  • Bindable show/hide hotkey to toggle the addon window.
  • Addon settings are saved account-wide


Metric Notes:
  • The dungeon run metric will update when you leave a dungeon and count the experience gained while inside as a single run. Exiting the dungeon before completion will still count any experience gained up to that point as a single run; for best accuracy I suggest not exiting until you are ready to reset and run again.

  • The dolmen metric will only update once you complete a dolmen for best accuracy.


If you encounter any issues or notice something not working as it should, do let me know so I can fix it. I do not actively play the game anymore, but I will continue to keep the addon updated and functional as long as people are using it. Any feedback or suggestions on how to improve the addon is appreciated and welcome.

Grind Timer is on GitHub.

Thank you. I have updated the addon and I believe it should now update the UI correctly when leveling up.
Fantastic, thanks for the speedy response

Thank you for your suggestions. I have updated the addon with most of them implemented in some form (Details in the changelog) with the exception of the third metric display option. I didn't feel there was much to gain by adding more to the UI with how easy it is to swap metrics out by right clicking on the labels and selecting a new one from the menu.

Must be something to do with what Minion wants for an image.

Thanks for the comment. I haven't used Minion so I was unaware of how the images were being displayed on it. I've uploaded a new set of cropped screenshots that should be easier to view on both the website itself and Minion.

Thanks for letting me know. It was a simple mistake that I overlooked just before uploading. I've fixed it and uploaded a new version. It shouldn't break anymore but let me know if you run into any more issues.

Looks like it was an oversight from being tired that night, should be fixed now. Thanks for letting me know guys.

Isn't it better to start from current CP and ends at target lvl?
Thanks for pointing that out, I have updated it to use the player's current CP value instead of starting from 0 if possible.
