Gearing Guide  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: v2.0.3
by: crazysheep [More]

This addon will show the priority of the item based on the stats that item has. The priority is built upon ElitestJerks stat priorities for each class. out of the classes that can wear the item, the addon automatically sorts the list to show at the top which class is best suited to the item.

This addon can in turn help people in dungeons as well as raids, as it will show how good the item is for the players class and spec, also useful when gearing their offspec, no need to research websites to find out what items are best.

With the tooltips showing class specific information, even questing now can be made easier, see the item has priority? Then your class can wear that item, check out the number, if its a low number its not perfect but wearable, if it it higher than other pieces of gear, its really good for your spec!

This is a simple addon to give quick easy information, the addon will not be able to say what is perfect for your class and spec as you may be following different stat priorities. The addon does however show if the item is itemised for your class/spec, if you can wear the item, based on priorities and stat weights, the addon gives points per stat, so should help work out if one item is better than another if compared. This in turn shows items quickly easily and no one will go far wrong from having the items with high numbers.

This addon can show the EPGP costs of the looted item as per the WoWWiki Algorithm or via the Master Looters own custom values per slot.

The addon has been updated to the new patch, and the priorities have been updated to the weights sites like icy-veins and noxxic suggest, this will be constantly updated as things change.

Features:
- Updated for v6.0 - Warlords of Draenor
- Shows priorities on all Tooltips for the players class (Added in v1.3.3)
- Works for all levels and all classes throughout leveling, including classes than change armour types (Added in v1.3.3)
- Priority list of the classes sorted in order of who it would benefit the most
- Ability to compare the dropped item and the items the player is currently wearing and prioritise the items, showing which would be better
- Ability to show the priorites of an item specific to the players class on the tooltips, so they can compare items solo, questing, and finding random drops.
- EPGP Prices of the item thats dropped (Off by Default)
- The fixed prices can be customised in options, and the name can be set to any Looting System the guild uses.
- Ability to be shown/hidden in groups/LFR (default is set to Show)
- Ability to be shown in master looter groups/raids (default is set to Show)
- Ability to be only shown on items of a certain rarity (default is set to show green and above)
- Ability to be able to only show the priorities for the players class or all classes (Added in 1.3 - Default to only show players class)
- Added a Wish List, which the player can add items to (from the journal, auction house, dropped loot, etc) a list. When a item drops that the player has on thier wish list, the addon lets them know, and the reason they wanted it (main spec, off spec, or transmog)
- Recreated the way priorities are made, and should now be more accurate (v2.0)

v2.0.3

- Fixed various bugs with Plate items
- Fixed problems with Wands
- Updated Ace3 libraries

Seems like a good idea, don't really have use for it right now, however there is 1 thing, that would make me use this if you could include it, i would very much like to see a BiS challenge mode gear if this is at all possible.

Wrong version linked/uploaded?

The latest update states it should be 1.0.51 of Gearing Guide but the actual download is EPGP LootingGuide, version 0.993.

While that isn't exactly possible for my addon, if you found the BiS list, you could use the Wish List feature, and add the items you are looking for to the Wish List which will then say you are looking for the item when it drops in a dungeon or raid.

feature request

i love the add-on. the only thing that bothers me is that there is no thresh hold setting. not that in saying its irrelevant but greens popping up the add-on are not exactly needed. i think greens and blues are borderline worthless and would appreciate a option to filter these out via color or just item level cutoff. epics usually are really the only gear worth anything after the blues phase. thanks for the add-on. i would have posted on curse but there is no comment option on curse or curse forge so this was my only option.

Perfect timing for a feature request, as I'll be updating it for 5.2
Thanks for the comment, and the feature sounds good, the greens were in there mainly for leveling, so I could have a few options in the options menu to show greens for lower levels and max level only show rares/epics and you can possibly choose to only show epics.

First off, thanks for the addon... it helps when trying to figure out what is a good upgrade for my alts.

Two things though.

I got the following error the other day, and I have to admit I'm not sure how. I believe it was when someone looted while in combat during a run, but I'm not 100% sure.

Second, is it possible to request that this addon interact with AtlasLoot. It would be great for when looking over a boss' drop inventory to see what might be better suited to use a coin for. Right now when I mouse over an item in AtlasLoot it just gives the basic description with no Gearing Guide information listed, like there would be if I had the actual item in my inventory.

Thanks.

Amazing request, I totally missed that one, and I should be able to attach onto the atlas loots tooltips, I might need to ask permission first though.

The bug, was reported to me on holiday, and I asked them how it was done, possibly it was you :P I'll look into it, it looks like the item doesn't exsist or something, very odd bug so late in the code. I am planning to make some memory management changes to the addon soon, which could also take care of that bug, if the item is getting lost in memory or something similar. I love the request and will check out if I am able to attach to their tooltips or need permission, if I do need permission I'll ask straight away and hopefully you'll see that addition in the upcoming version

Edit: I think I know what caused the bug, I assume you clicked on compare, and then the error came up, usually this is fine but the item had already been given out when you pressed the compare? I think this would cause the error, hope I'm right, as this is a simple thing to check for

Edit 2: For those interested, I found a bug while doing Firelands with my raid, and having self loot turned on, the bug is that windows appear floating, and there is no text, this is because the self loot at the moment doesn't factor in multiple drops, this will also be fixed in the next patch.

I've tried many times to have this, but unsure of how to get the items into a window, but my programming skills have come on a lot since i first started this progject, so I might be able to sort something now. Its always been a feature I've personally wanted to add, so if I can, it will be there.
