WoW character manager for alt armies

Updated on

A WoW character manager is the roster view: every character's level, item level, active spec, equipped gear and achievements on one screen, kept current from Blizzard's API without logging into each one. VaultAlts adds your account wide mounts, pets and toys, PvP ratings and six weeks of vault history per character, free on iOS, Android and the web.

It is the slow moving half of alt tracking. The weekly half, vault slots, keys and raid kills, is on [the WoW alt tracker page](/wow-alt-tracker).

What the manager keeps for each character

The roster fields VaultAlts keeps per character, and the Blizzard Profile API feed each is read from

In the app each character opens on four tabs: Week (vault, keys, weeklies), Gear, PvP when the character has a rating, and More (achievements, reputations, vault history, guild). All of it is the public Profile API, so a friend's character shows the same gear and ratings through the character lookup, without a login.

How current the roster is

A character syncs when you open the app and its data is more than an hour old, or at once with Sync now, so gear changes from last night are there by the time you look in the morning. Blizzard's collections feeds are account wide, which is why mounts, pets and toys are counted once rather than repeated under every alt. Nothing is entered by hand and nothing is installed in the game: one login on Blizzard's page covers the account, and the token it grants is read only and revocable under Connections at account.battle.net.

What a character manager cannot hold

  • Gold, bags and bank. Not in Blizzard's Profile API, so not in any app.
  • Auction House. Not published per character.
  • Classic, Hardcore and Anniversary characters. VaultAlts reads the retail profile API only.
  • A second Battle.net region. An account connects one region; characters elsewhere are not listed.

Whether a spreadsheet, an addon or an API app is the right home for a roster of this size is the question on the best way to track multiple WoW characters, and the wider tool comparison is on comparing WoW alt management tools.

Frequently asked questions

Can I see an alt's gear without logging into it?

Yes. VaultAlts reads the equipment feed of Blizzard's Profile API, so each character shows its item level and every equipped item with stats, enchant and sockets, refreshed when you open the app and the data is more than an hour old.

Are mounts, pets and toys per character or account wide?

Account wide. Blizzard's collections feeds belong to the account, so VaultAlts shows your mounts, pets and toys once for the Warband rather than repeating them under each alt.

Does the character manager show PvP ratings?

Yes, when the character has them: 2v2, 3v3, Rated Battlegrounds, Solo Shuffle and Battleground Blitz, from Blizzard's PvP feeds. Characters with no rated PvP simply have no PvP tab.
