Current ilvl

Version: 1.3

by: IglooDragon [More]

Blizzard provide a handy ilvl display in your character window. Useful for knowing if you can get into HC's or even just how well your gear is coming along. It has one flaw though: it counts what is in your bags as well as what you are wearing.
This addon allows you to answer those all important questions

"Is my tank gear as good as my dps?"
"Is my PvE as good as my PvP?"
"Just how much does fishing equipment hurt my ilvl?"

The original blizzard figure is relegated to a number in brackets, with the other number being the ilvl of the currently worn equipment. The screenshot probably explains it better than I can! :P

You can also get the addon to report to the chat window as well using
/currentilvl or /cilvl

Version 1.3

Now hooking paperdoll function rather than catching updates (thanks to ballagarba for locating the function & providing example code) - huge performance increase and inherently prevents bugs like the one fixed by v1.2
Simplified the mainhand+offhand vs twohand code

Version 1.2

Fixed cilvl incorrectly displaying on rage/energy line for feral druids in shapeshift form

Version 1.1

Improved performance of ilvl re-calculation
Tidied up toc details

Thank you for this mod, I imagine Blizz will add this functionality officially some day.

Probably, seeing as they already have it on the Armory.

@IglooDragon:
By the way, I improved my two-hand weapon detection code a bit, here's the diff (or complete file).

This is basically what you want instead of checking if an off-hand is equipped:

Code:

local itemLink = GetInventoryItemLink('player', INVSLOT_MAINHAND)
local equipSlot = select(9, GetItemInfo(itemLink))

if (equipSlot == 'INVTYPE_2HWEAPON') then
    hasTwoHander = true
end

Hey IglooDragon. Great addon, got inspired by it and created my own solution. I decided to hook PaperDollFrame_SetItemLevel(...) instead of ToggleCharacter like you did, that way I don't have to use an OnUpdate script.

Here's my script, tell me what you think: currentilvl.lua

This is the real reason I was asking for clarification.

The blizzard ilvl isn't of 'everything' as such, it picks the highest ilvl 16 (or 17 with mainhand/offhand rather than 2-hander) pieces of gear and uses them to work out the ilvl. For example it might pick to use a high ilvl tanking head, some pvp gloves and a dps trinket or some other bizarre combination. It gives the highest possible average ilvl you could achieve given the items you have available. Lower ilvl stuff is ignored, even if you're wearing it (hence this addon :P)

Re: Re: Which is Which?

Yep, the one in the brackets is the original blizzard (everything) ilvl. Should probably have made that clearer in the screenshot :P

In the screenshot, you circle the two Item Level values this addon displays? But which value means what (currently equipped gear vs your gear and everything in your bags)?
