Never miss an LFG satchel again.
LookingForSatchels is a lightweight World of Warcraft Mists of Pandaria Classic (5.5.x) addon that watches Blizzard's Call to Arms role-bonus system and pings you the instant a satchel becomes available for a dungeon you're tracking — for the roles you're willing to play. When a match appears it flashes the WoW window, plays a sound, prints a chat alert, and pops a draggable Queue? dialog letting you join with a single click.
It's designed to run quietly in the background while you're out questing, AFK in a city, or running other content — so you can take advantage of a 30-minute Tank-shortage bonus the moment it drops, without parking yourself in front of the Dungeon Finder window.
- Watch list button — an
L+/L-toggle next to the dungeon name on the Dungeon Finder adds or removes the currently selected dungeon - Per-dungeon role overrides — three role checkboxes appear next to each
L-button so you can scan for Tank / Heal / Damage shortages on a specific dungeon (or leave them all empty to use your default role set) - Background polling — a 10-second
C_Timerscan polls the LFG service for role-bonus rewards and fires a raid-warning banner, taskbar flash and sound when a satchel matches - One-click queue popup — a secure Queue? dialog joins the dungeon without navigating Blizzard's UI; safely hides itself during combat or while you're in a group, and re-shows afterwards
- Shift-click to consume — Shift-clicking on the popup buttons also removes that dungeon from your watch list, handy for "one bonus per day" workflows
- Per-character state — watch list and preferences are saved per character
- Close World of Warcraft.
- Place the
LookingForSatchelsfolder into:World of Warcraft\_classic_\Interface\AddOns\ - Start the game and enable

Open the Dungeon Finder (I) and click the L+ button next to the dungeon name to start watching that dungeon for Call to Arms satchel bonuses. The button flips to L- and three role checkboxes appear — leave them unchecked to scan for every role, or tick specific ones to narrow the scan for this dungeon only.
When a satchel appears for a role you've selected, the addon prints a chat alert, flashes the WoW window icon, plays a sound and shows a draggable Queue? popup with one-click Yes/No buttons. Shift-click on the popup's Yes/No also removes that dungeon from your watch list, which is handy if you only want one wing per week.
This is a Mists of Pandaria Classic rewrite of the original retail LookingForSatchels addon by lqnrd. The original concept, queue-popup design and per-dungeon role override are theirs; this version modernises it for MoP Classic 5.5.3 (Interface 50503) with a C_Timer.NewTicker scan loop, modular file layout, and the floating status indicator removed.
