About this addon

What it does

Equip Recommended Gear (ERG) adds a button to your character pane that equips the highest item level gear for your class & spec. Inspired by the same feature available in Final Fantasy XIV Online.

Features

  • Adds a button. When you click the button, it does the thing;
  • Instead of the button, you can also set a keybind or use EquipRecommendedGear.DoTheThing(). Refer to the API.lua documentation for more information.

Limitations

  • It will only consider soulbound items;
  • It will only consider weapons suitable for your specialisation (2-handed weapons for Survival Hunter, daggers for Assassination Rogues, etc.);
  • It will only consider weapons with your primary stat (Agility, Intellect, Strength) on them;
  • It will not check rings or trinkets for your primary stat;
  • It will not check the secondary stats of any gear;
  • It will not use weights of any kind. It just looks at the item level. Number go up, happy brain chemicals.

If you are experiencing issues

  • Check if the issue occurs with only this addon enabled, or if the issue is a feature you can disable from the addon's settings menu.
  • If you run into any issues or if you have other feedback, feel free to join the Discord and ask in the #equip-recommended-gear channel, or create a ticket on GitHub. :)
