ReadyUpgrade

NOTICE: Please visit our Discord server to report problems and bugs.

ReadyUpgrade is a gear recommendation addon built around a simple question: is this actually worth using?

Instead of throwing raw stats at you, it compares what's in your bags to what you have equipped and give you a clear answer:

• Equip Now
• Strong Upgrade
• Likely Upgrade
• Sidegrade (use your own judgement)
• Keep
• Ignore
• Uncertain

It is meant to be useful at every stage of the game from levelling to endgame!

While levelling, it leans toward obvious upgrades such as higher item level and clear power gains. At max level, it becomes more conservative, factoring in stat quality, slot context, and the kind of tradeoffs that aren't always straight-forward. You can also tune how strict or relaxed it is.

Features

• Compares equipped gear directly against items in your bags
• Separate logic for Levelling, Endgame, and Custom modes
• Takes your specialisation into account
• Avoids overconfidence on complex or unclear items
• Tooltip recommendations with short, readable explanations
• Summary panel showing upgrades you can equip immediately
• Optional bag markers to highlight useful items
• Character sheet integration for quick review
• Per-item ignore to silence specific recommendations
• Adjustable balance between item level and stat weighting
• Designed to err on the side of caution rather than mislead

Why Use ReadyUpgrade?

Most upgrade addons fall into a few categories:

• they overvalue item level,
• they reduce everything to a single score,
• or they present uncertain decisions as if they're definitive

ReadyUpgrade doesn't try to simulate perfect builds. It focuses on helping you make decisions quickly and with context:

• Should I equip this right now?
• Is this actually better for my spec?
• Is this just a sidegrade with minimal gains?
• Is it worth keeping?
• Is there actually enough clarity to say what I should do?

The goal is simple: faster, clearer decisions without pretending the game is more certain than it is!
