Change Log:
--------------------
1.5r1:
Added several spell-only enchants that were accidentally skipped in 1.5r1 (embroideries, runeforging, etc.) to the list of weightable stats
1.5r1:
WeightsWatcher now supports enchants!
Any enchant with "normal" stats will be suggested automatically based on your current weights
Those with procs and other unusual effects have been added to a list of enchants you can manually add weights for
With the exception of Lightweave, Darkglow, and Swordguard embroideries, all of these enchants have a value of 1 when being weighted. The mentioned ones have a value of 1 for the first rank and 2 for the second rank.
We eventually plan to support procs in general, but it will be another large project. When we do, we will move all the enchants we can to that method of handling.
WW will take the following into account when figuring out the best enchant for your gear:
Your level
The item level
Your professions and their level
Your reputation with relevant factions
The obvious stuff (slot, subslot, etc.)
The options have been given a bit of a workover to support this
All your current choices should carry over to the new structure
There are some new ones specifically for enchants as well
The options are still accessible via /ww config, but you can now use /ww config to jump immediately to the submenu of your choice
Submenus: calculation, display, gems, and enchants
Note that Blizzard's code to do this has some bugs which may open you to the wrong menu if you have alot of addons using the Blizzard config UI. I recommend the addon BlizzBugsSuck to fix this issue (and a few other...
Description:
--------------------
WeightsWatcher gives you an easy to use way to compare gear based on the actual stats, not just the item level.
Currently, all base stats, gems in non-crafted sockets, and enchants should be handled properly. Also, gems are suggested based on the weights you have enabled. Note that crafted sockets and other "stacking" enchants are not currently handled, because they are not detectable through the WoW API.
All weights can be changed as you see fit, and you can create and enable as many or as few as you would like.
The current version includes the default weights from the fine folks at Wowhead.com, which are tuned for level 85 characters. Endgame players will probably want to create hit- and/or expertise- capped weights, which is easily done by copying an existing weight and setting the appropriate values to 0.
Slash commands:
/ww config - Brings up the main configuration window

/ww weights - Brings up the weights configuration window
/ww version - Displays version information
/ww help - Displays this message
Known issues:
Trinkets and meta gems are not currently handled very well. Specifically:
The special effects on meta gems are not included in the default set of weights (but you can add them yourself)
"Chance on X" and some use effects on trinkets are not taken into account (these will be marked as unweighted)
Use effects that increase a stat by a static amount are now handled
Equip effects that increase a stat by a static amount, stacking up to x times are also handled
Other, more oddball trinket effects are not handl...
