MetaHunt
MetaHunt is a Twow Hunter toolkit.
It is a modern modular addon compiling brand new features, and improving a few old hunter add-ons that were broken or disfunctional with twow.
It provides a bunch of useful functionalities for all huntards, wheter they are still levelling, lone-wolf, or HL raider. You play the best class, now you have the best companion for it (and its not your pet).
Important notes
- Altough Nampower isn't mandatory for most of the features, it is a must-have for some, and certainly the MM Widget.
- If you were using old versions of Feed-O-Matic, ICU, zHunterMod and HunterHelper, you dont need those with MetaHunt and you SHOULD disable them to avoid conflicts.
- MetaHunt is fully compatible with QUIVER <3, and is not a replacement for it.
- The addon purposely disable itself on all Capycraft/Ravencraft Realms, following the DDOS attacks they conducted on other servers.
Twow Data
MetaHunt ships with large twow datastores, and notably:
- 100% accurate beasts' data, their locations, and the abilities they can learn you
- All Pet families, their abilities and their diet
- All pet abilities ranks
- All hunter and pet spells
- All Ammo and ranged weapons
- All Hunter/Pet/Stable Masters
- All Ammo vendors
Online bestiary is also available here https://duvelcorp.codeberg.page/MetaHunt-Web/
Smart Ammo
- Auto swap your main ammo to junk ammo for shots that doesn't scale on damage, and re-equip you main ammo right away. Don't waste your Doomshots on nothing anymore, save money !
- Auto equip another ammo instantly during combat whenever you get out of your current ammo.
- Auto equip the right ammo when you swap from a box/xbow to a gun and the other way around.
MM Widget
1.18.1 weapon of mass-destruction. NAMPOWER MANDATORY. The widget is composed of 5 cells, tracking the 3-state of Experimental ammo cycle (Fire → Nature → Arcane), the Lock & Load procs, and a smart dynamic cell. The smart cell shows either Aimed Shot availability or the right shot to use following the current Experimental ammo proc if any, and it bypasses the proc spell if your current target is immune to the school. You can bind the smart cell to turn the widget into a very efficient one-button rotation. Lets make MM great again !

Efficient Scanners
The add-on smartly scan your character and pet tabs, spellbook, beast training, stable and learning masters windows. This is done automatically and fast in the background, and allows to enrich the static datastore with YOUR own data, and to provide meaningfull dynamic information following the context. It also scan your Pet's state constantly, but with minimal ressources.
Animations
Metahunt is the first add-on that uses the great PizzaSauce library of Pizzahawaii. This adds fun and makes the interface feel alive.
