Carn's Simple Stat Weights

A super simple addon that shows the priority of stats based on your current class/spec. The information is based on Icy Veins stat priorities (initially from March 2026 but they'll be updated with each new patch). There are no options, no configuration, no databroker or minimap buttons, it just displays a small panel on the character frame showing your important stats in descending order.

If stats are listed with an equals sign eg: H=C, then both stats are roughly even in weight.

NEW!

Updated 20 May 2026 with latest Icy Veins stat priorities.

Added alternative spec priorities where applicable. eg: Tanking survivability stats versus tanking damage stats.

Clicking an entry on the dropdown sets it as your default (main) value - handy if you're playing in one spec but want to gear for a different spec. Clicking the main value resets it to use your current spec.

Who is this addon for:

People leveling their umpteenth alt who can't remember whether Crit is better than Mastery on that twentieth new piece of gear. ie: It's a quick and dirty lookup for stat importance.

Who is this addon not for:

Raiders, PVPers, Mythic+ pushers etc who are trying to min/max their gear. If you're trying to optimise your high end gear then you should be using Simcraft/Raidbots not this :D

To do:

(Maybe) allow users to enter their own stat priorities.

Please note:

This addon will probably work on non-retail versions of WoW, but the stat priorities are not going to be right. So please only use it on retail.
