Pawn   Popular! (More than 5000 hits)
Pawn assesses the value of items for you so it's easy to decide which items are better than others. It's completely customizable, and applicable to any class and situation: for example, it can help you discover that the ring with a higher item level but one stat you don't want (such as spirit for shamans), or the ring with the lower item level but all good stats. It's that level of customization that makes it very different from more general mods like GearScore and more specialized mods like TankPoints.

Pawn is a mod for hardcore World of Warcraft players who agonize over stats and itemization. Use the included Wowhead stat weight presets, import Pawn "scale tags" posted on forums, or start from scratch and come up with your own valuation scales. If you're the kind of person who plans gear upgrades, builds Excel spreadsheets, installs Rawr, reads Elitist Jerks... well, Pawn might just be right up your alley.

See the Pawn readme file included with the mod for more information on getting the most out of Pawn.

This version of Pawn is for English only. Community translations for other languages are available, but are not always up-to-date.

Pawn plugins for FuBar and Titan Panel are available on Curse.

  Change Log - Pawn
Important! After upgrading to Pawn 1.3, your Pawn settings and scales will be upgraded and will no longer be visible in older versions of Pawn. If you need to revert to an older version of Pawn, use the new /pawn backup command to make a backup copy of your scales that you can save in a file on your computer.

Version 1.3.2

* Fixed a bug where the Export button would generate an invalid scale tag for the Wowhead scales. Now you can properly export the Wowhead scales just like your own.

Version 1.3.1

* Fixed a bug where the Pawn socketing suggestions window would not show the proper name of Wowhead scales.

Version 1.3

* You can now see and edit all of your scales in the Pawn UI, regardless of which character you're currently on. (You'll need to log into each of your characters once first.) Each of your scales can be shown in tooltips for just one or none of your characters (like in previous versions), or you can have a scale show up in the tooltips for multiple different characters.
* All of the stat weight presets from Wowhead are now included with Pawn, so you can immediately start using it without needing to import or create any scales if you don't feel like customizing. The Wowhead scales can't be changed, but if you want to use them as a starting point for your own scales you can copy them and modify the copy.
o If you have feedback for the Wowhead scales, please see the Wowhead Theorycrafting forum.
* The new Scale tab now contains most of the per-scale options (such as whether it shows up on your character's tooltips), as well as the options for importing, exporting, and creating scales. The Values tab (previously the Scales tab) is now a bit simpler.
* The list of scales now appears in a pane to the left of the Pawn UI instead of in a dropdown. The scales that are visible on the current character's tooltips will appear at the top of the list.
* The "Normalize values (like Wowhead)" option can now be set individually for each of your scales for finer control.
* Added a new command /pawn backup that you can use to back up all of your custom scales at once as a big mass of scale tags.
* Item levels will now only appear on items in the Compare tab if you also have them enabled for item tooltips in Interface Options.
* If you hold down the Shift key when clicking the Delete button to delete a scale, the scale will now be deleted immediately without requiring confirmation.
* Many bugs were fixed, including several bugs that only existed in pre-release versions of Pawn 1.3 and are not listed here:
o Fixed a potential error when setting up default Pawn keybindings when using Pawn for the first time for a character, and added a diagnostic message to help determine why the problem is occurring.
o Fixed a bug where often the first item comparison you performed in the Compare tab wouldn't show item values until you clicked the Swap button or the list of scales.
o Fixed the error that would occur when trying to put an heirloom item in the Compare tab.
o Fixed a display issue where scales with colons (':') in their names would appear incorrectly on tooltips if the "align values to right edge of tooltip" option were enabled.
o Fixed a bug where the scale total values listed when hovering over a Pawn button on someone's character sheet weren't listed in alphabetical order.

First of all, THANK you for this addon!
And then comes a little question, does furry and arms warriors share the same ratings? Since there are only Furry and Tank in Pawn/wowhead ?

You just want to get rid of the icon that appears to the left of the tooltip? Uncheck "Show inventory icons" on Pawn's Options tab.

Vger,

Let me start off by saying sweet addon. I do have one complaint. You highjack the tooltip in such a way that you force add the ItemRef ICON back to the tooltip even when people have commented that out of their respective addons that do it. And since your code is rather complex and extensive I can't figure out how to uninject that addon . Can you please help out?

Re: Features

You can compare items that aren't in your bag using key bindings. By default, Pawn will try to take over the left bracket [ as the "put this item in the left slot" key, and right bracket ] as the right-slot key. So you can, for example, browse through AtlasLoot, hover over an item you want, and press the right bracket, and Pawn will show you the stat differences between it and the item of the same type that you're already using. You can customize the key bindings in the usual place.

Pawn doesn't really know or care about your class or your spec (nothing personal), so more... dynamic behavior isn't really available. But, many of the top simulators, such as Rawr, let you create scales closely customized for your character, spec, play style, and gear that you can put into Pawn. For more information, crack open the Readme file in the Pawn addon folder, and search for "Rawr."

Features

Overall great addon thanks VgerAN.

Is it possible for PAWN to compare items that are not in my bag yet? (like before loot or even from AtlasLoot). Maybe to allow add item to compare by SHIFT-Click that item instead of draging it?

Another feature is being able to compare stats with the kind of talent points I have in the key talents instead of a fixed weight system. I know this is a lot more work but it hope in the future this feature is considered.

Again thanks.

Someone on the Pawn forums also commented that the copy of Pawn that they got from WOWUI Minion was giving them the same problem, and after downloading a fresh copy, everything was fine.

I think I may have had a corrupted install from installing it here at wowinterface. I deleted the copy i had and the savedvariable it had, installed it with the curse client and it works fine now.

Hrrmmmm. Can you try putting an item into Pawn's Compare tab to see what happens there? It would also be helpful if you could type "/pawn debug on", hover over an item, and then do "/pawn debug off" and tell me what sorts of things you see in your chat log. (There will be a lot of spam; just a summary of stuff like if you see a lot of lines saying that Pawn didn't understand something would be helpful.)

I'm playing a warlock, under MyName's scale, i have the Warlock: affliction, demonology, and destructions scales, all are obviously "Show scale in tooltips" selected. Pawn shows no errors, this is the first time i've installed it on this fresh install of wow so it's not a conflict of an old addon, and it also doesn't work when pawn is the only addon enabled .

* Do you have any scales enabled for that character? (You should have at least two enabled by default after upgrading to Pawn 1.3)
* Do you have interface errors enabled? Does Pawn hit any errors?
* Have you tried playing with only Pawn enabled and no other mods?
