Description

BeanArena

BeanArena started as a simple arena point calculator and grew into the all-in-one PvP companion I wanted but couldn't find for TBC Anniversary. If you're grinding toward Merciless Gladiator gear and constantly alt-tabbing to check AP formulas, gear costs, or CC rules mid-session, this addon is built for that exact frustration.

What It Does

BeanArena runs as two coordinated windows: a compact calculator that hooks into your PvP panel (opens automatically when you press H), and a separate reference window that slides in beside it on demand.

Arena Point Calculator

  • Live 2v2 / 3v3 / 5v5 ratings pulled directly from the game API
  • Games-played tracker with a visual 10-game minimum indicator
  • Weekly reward projection, highlighting your best eligible bracket
  • Manual "what-if" calculator: enter any rating to simulate AP
  • Rating Target tool: enter an AP goal and see the exact rating needed per bracket
  • Banked AP shown inline so you always know your running total

Honor & Battleground Tracking

  • Current honor with a cap bar, milestone markers, and a near-cap warning
  • Countdown to the Tuesday weekly reset
  • AV / WSG / AB / EotS mark counts scanned from your bags
  • Weekly pacing estimate: how many AV or WSG wins to reach cap

Reference Window: five sections, one place

  • Arena Gear - S1 and S2 armor icon grids per class, with full item tooltips, AP cost and personal rating requirements per slot. Season and class switcher built in.
  • Weapons - every S1 and S2 PvP weapon, off-hand, and relic with item icons, AP cost, and rating gate
  • Honor Gear - S1 and S2 Veteran's / General's off-pieces (Neck, Ring, Bracers, Belt, Boots), auto-detected for your class, with mark requirements
  • CC/DR Table - quick reference and full per-class breakdown of every CC spell, DR category, and duration for all nine TBC classes
  • Help - formula reference, bracket multipliers, slash command list

Character Viewer

  • Tracks arena points, honor, and ratings for every character you log into with BeanArena installed
  • Viewable from the main window dropdown, no need to log out to check your alts
