The Touken Ranbu Helper is a web browser extension that displays useful information about one's game, including sword and troop health, troop count, and predicted smithing results. It gathers this information by reading the data that the server transfers to the player's client game.
The original Helper was made by weibo user moelynn, then translated into English by Oredare, Maitou, Seijuros, and Miiandering.
The new Helper was created by Github user hitomi and updated by helentetsuko and MA Zhenyuan, then translated by Tangelor142.
Original forum thread is here.
Notice[]
- The extensions now supports use on Mozilla Firefox in addition to Google Chrome
- The Helper is now available as a Chrome Extension App on the Web Store. It is privately listed, so please use the link to download in one simple click.
- Chrome may display a screen on startup regarding the extension - ignore it. The notice is normal behavior. It does this to every unpacked extension, as a safeguard against potentially malicious ones.
- The LITE version of the extension will malfunction for every new sword/kiwame added to the game. Please update the extension accordingly.
