XPrismatic : Remix

This addon monitors your prismatic gem collection so you can concentrate on your Remix journey without checking every gem loot to see if you can upgrade. Now all you have to do is wait for the minimap icon to turn green and do your upgrading then. Or check on your gem count status using the Gem Manager window at your leisure.

Seeing as this is for a currently temporary feature I don't plan on doing any further changes ( outside of bugs during the Remix ).

As pointed out by thepariah, there is an addon called Narcissus ( on Curse ), that handles the gem situation as part of it's addon. It also works differently to this one. So, feel free to check it out if this one doesn't quite do what you wanted.


What this does do

It does it's best to keep on top of the various changes to keep your prismatic gem count totals up to date. And when you then show the Gem Manager it will show you where it recorded the gems at last and display them on the appropriate gem.

Top Left : Gems it saw in the bags
Middle Left : Gems it saw socketed to the chest item being worn
Bottom Left : Gems it saw socketed to the legs item being worn

Top Right : Gems it saw socketed to the neck item being worn
Middle Right : Gems it saw socketed to the rings being worn
Bottom Right : Gems it saw socketed to the trinkets being worn

And, in case you forget, there is a helper frame that appears that shows you what each number represents.


It does not count those in the bank or sitting in mail or still socketed to an item not being worn. The latter will fix itself when you convert the item and retrieve the sockets in your bag.

The addon monitors multiple things to keep the counts as correct as possible:
- On Login ( First time or Reload ) - It checks your worn chest and legs and tallies all the gems
- On Inventory Change - It checks the inventory item and recounts the gems attached to that slot
- On Slot Close - It tallies all gems to hopefully reflect gems added to and removed from inventory items
- On Opening the Gem Window - It uses the counts made so far and displays the relevant count in it's location for each button
- As the count changes for non legendary gems it changes the colour of the minimap icon gem.


Minimap Icon Colour
Blue = Unknown status
Red = Maximum of 0 of each type of gem
Orange = Maximum of 1 of each type of gem
Yellow = Maximum of 2 of each type of gem
Green= Maximum of 3 of each type of gem

You should only see the blue icon if the addon failed for some reason - as it is only Blue when you first log in. Once it starts tallying, which it does right after that, the color should change almost immediately.

If you see a green icon, you will know there is an upgrade available and can open the gem manager to see which one it is ( the borders of the gems will have the same colouring ) and where the gems are based on their number displays.

Legendary Gems - as far as I know - won't have an upgrade option, so there is no upgrade status border to those gems. But, it does show where the addon has seen the gems.

Automation ?
Unlike some of Narcissus's functionality I chose not to try and attempt an automated process - even in part. Checking your bags and 2 inventory slots is a minor step in the process. If you keep the gems in the same bag it will make things easier.
