Getting Started
Prerequisites
What you need before starting your SYNQ rotation
Before building your first SYNQ rotation, make sure you have everything set up. This takes just a few minutes.
Required Setup
1. SYNQ Framework
Download SYNQ from our platform and place it in your unlocker's directory. SYNQ needs to be loaded by your unlocker before you can use it.
2. Code Editor
Install Visual Studio Code (or your preferred Lua editor). VS Code is free and works well with Lua syntax highlighting.
Built-in idTip
SYNQ includes a built-in idTip feature that shows spell IDs on tooltips. Toggle it with:
/synq debug idtip
No external addon needed — hover over any spell or ability to see its ID while building your spellbook.
Recommended Addons
BugSack + BugGrabber - Error Handling
- Displays Lua errors in a clean, readable format
- Catches errors that would otherwise be silent
- Speeds up debugging significantly
Next: Set up your project structure in Directory Setup.
