This addons will add a score value at the top of every items. This score is computed depending on a custom specialization you built by setting weights to stats. So each score is specific to your characters.
Since the specialization can be complex to build, this addon offer you a way to export and import them very easily. To export, just click export and copy the code. To import, just click import and paste the code. DONE !
This addon also add a base damage, base heal value, computed from your assault power, support power, critical rating, etc.. It gives you also a Damage to Death value which is a statistical value of damage you can take before dying. Those values are in the character window.
You also get a Total Gear Score.
To switch specialization, use: /choiceshelpersettings or /chs or use the link into the escape menu.
You can also use command line: /chs [SPEC NAME] , you can build macro that way !
to share specializations, you can either here or on the wildstar forum : https://forums.wildstar-online.com/forums/index.php?/topic/95019-addon-choices-helper/
Please consider using CharacterInfoPlus to get more features.
PROGRESS:

- short command line /chs.

- Can use /chs [SPEC NAME] to switch specialization with macro !
- New window in the character window to have a better display.

Not much traffic for this game but I was looking for a preset for Spellslinger DPS. thanx
Thanks Dridzt! I will try it. :) I was wondering though, do you know if this addon is like WoWs Pawn? http://www.curse.com/addons/wow/pawn It will select the class you are using and helps with the choices or do I have to manually figure it out for this addon? I'm not good with theorycrafting and was hoping to just import a SS DPS profile. thanks again.
It saves per character so you will be seeing the scales for the character you're on only not every toon you play.
It has no logic to automatically detect LAS you're in and switch to the appropriate support / assault scale.
It also doesn't have a way for you to manually link a scale to a LAS.
In short you need to switch the scale manually through the addon GUI (or the macro I posted)

Modify the names of "DPS" "Tank" to your particular specs, replace like for like.
With small modifications you can make it cycle between more specs, but this should do for a starting point.

you can try to replace the first and secondary stat by yours and see if it fits your needs.
I'm getting the following error when i type /chs :

Uuuh... Your damage to death formula is totally wrong ! You shoudl not calculate damage to death like that...
Let's say I have 50k HP, 0 Shield and 50% resistance... It means I can take 100 000 damage before dying. With your formula, I'll have 50k + 50%50k = 75k...
The damage to death is (assuming your shield gets depleted before your life which is true in 99% of the cases) :
(Health+Shield)*( 1/(1-rez) )*( 1/(1-dodge) ).
In the exemple above : 50k*1/(1-0.5) = 50k*1/0.5 = 50k*2 = 100k.
Now if I have 60k HP+Shield and 60% rez (my actual stats) : 60k*1/(1-0.6) = 60k*2.5 = 150k. This is the damage I can take until dying.
You can take the same formula for crit dodge and for dodge, for simplicity. The right formula is now :
(Health+Shield) * (1 / (1-rez)) * (1 / (1-dodge)) * (1 / (1-critdodge))
good point ! Thank you ! I will update the formula ! :)
i updated the code. Waiting for the update to be approved by curse :)
thanks for the help !
