When I try to compare my 1-h weapon to my equipped 2-h weapon, why does RhadaTip not take my offhand into account?
RhadaTip does a linear comparison in this case. In order to also look at the offhand, RhadaTip would need to scan your bags and find suitable off hand items, then rank them by potential dps in combination with the item you are looking to swap. This is not a small amount of work, and is more than I currently want to ask of wow when simply mousing/hovering over an item. There are efficient ways of solving this, but I have not found a method I like as of yet. For now, you have to add the offhand DPS into the comparison manually.
What other commands are there?
Quite a few. You can access the complete list of available options by typing /rt in game. In here, I'll only spend a couple words on the following: /rt sv -> Opens up the scaling values input frame. /rt og -> Opens up the Gem Optimizer frame. /rt ogear -> Opens up the Gear Optimizer frame. /rt pv -> Opens up the frame containing pre-set values for different specs and gear levels. /rt import (...) -> Imports the scaling values using the string returned by SimulationCraft.
What assumptions does the mod make?
- Trinkets like Illustration of the Dragon Soul are modeled as static gains. Keeping the stacks up is generally possible, and most classes can even stack the charges up before pulling.
- The Avg Casting Time field in /rt hc is TIMEPERIOD (say 60 seconds) / NUMBER OF CASTS (that can proc trinkets).
- Clicking a pre-set value button will only save scaling values, you will still have to configure the /rt hc frame for accurate values.
- There are a few available slash commands for RhadaTip: /RhadaTip, /rt, /rtip, /Rtip
Which classes does it support?
It was developed with warlocks in mind, but it should work out fine for every dps and healing class. Tanking classes will be supported along with effective health in the future. Dodge and Parry are not currently exposed in the GUI, so RhadaTip is of limited utility today for tanks.
What other mods does it support?
The mod is fully compatible (and the usege of the following mods is strongly recommended) with AtlasLoot and Auc-Searcher-RhadaTip.
What is the difference between this mod and RatingBuster?
This mod has xPS in its mind. RatingBuster is used to convert ratings into percentages, and to obtain a breakdown of the sum of all the stats on the tooltipped item. In no way it delivers actual xPS informations. Thus, none of the key features of RhadaTip listed in these f.a.q. is present in RatingBuster.
What is the difference between this mod and Pawn?
Taken from the answers to the question "What does RhadaTip do" at the beginning of this f.a.q., the following RhadaTip features aren't found (or are radically different) in Pawn:
1.2 (Trinkets)
2 (Full gear evaluation...)
2.1 (... leading to always accurate comparisons)
2.2 (Tier set bonuses and hit/expertise cap)
3 (the 1-click gear optimizer)
4, 4.1 and 4.2 (the ability to go n items ahead of your current gear, to compare not just two items but n items, etc)
4.3 (compare your gear to that of other playes)
5 (support to dual specs)
6, 6.1 and 6.2 (the gem optimizer)
7, 7.1 (pre-set scaling values and auto-loading of the best scaling value template on login)
What is coming up next?
- More Cata gems and trinkets.
- Tier11 pre set scales.
- More item enchants
- More item and weapon procs
- Mosre complete gear upgrade finder
How can I contribute?
- Help me with pre-saved scaling values, especially for the healing classes/specs.
- Test the localizations.
- Help me with a couple trinket models.
Where did my question go?
Since many are asking the same questions over and over, not necessarely related to rhadatip (and therefore out of context in this main page, looking at you "how do I compute tier bonus values?"), I'll use the user questions as a compendium to this page, and therefore clean the unneeded posts to increase their quality.
Compatibility issues.
There are no known compatibility issues at the moment.
