Pawn Forever

Pawn Forever is an add-on for Pawn on WoW Forever. Pawn itself is required.

What it does

1. Reads the tooltip lines Pawn misses on Forever. Without it, Pawn values these at 0:

• "Restores +4 mana per 5 sec." (more than 900 Forever items)
• "Increases healing done by magical spells and effects by up to 12." (more than 200 items)
• Zone-bonus lines like "... by up to 8. This effect is tripled in Forest and Grassland areas." (the base value is counted)

The patterns are built from the game's own localized tooltip text, so they work in every language Pawn supports. Each one switches itself off once Pawn reads that line on its own.

2. Fixes hover lag. On Forever, Pawn re-reads an item's whole tooltip every time it looks up a cached value, which makes hovering items stutter. Pawn Forever trusts an item once Pawn has returned the same result twice.

3. Adds "Pawn Forever" stat weights for every spec of all nine classes, plus Forever builds such as Battle Mage, Shockadin and Enhancement Tank. Below level 60 the scales use leveling weights, which favor stamina and regen. At 60 they switch to endgame weights automatically. The first time a character logs in, Pawn Forever replaces the stock scales you had showing for your class with its own.

Commands

• /pff forever: use the Pawn Forever scales for your class
• /pff stock: go back to Pawn's stock scales
• /pff diag: list tooltip lines Pawn still can't read on your gear
• /pff patterns: list the extra tooltip patterns your client uses

Pawn is by Vger. Most spec weights start from the Forever weight tables in GearQuest Forever by Henrik8210, converted to Pawn's units. Balance and Restoration druid weights are hand-tuned.
