RhadaTip DPS/HPS Tooltip

Item Comparisons

The primary goal of RhadaTip is to aid people is selecting gear and deciding how best to use what they already own. It has a number of uses and facets:

Item vs Item comparisons (to know how much dps this new badge item will grant to you, how much dkp you should bid on this newly dropped raid loot, etc). These comparisons have a number of features:

  • Proficiency bonus and penalties. While leveling, a plate wearing paladin can make an informed decision about wearing a piece of mail. The new item will take the proficiency bonus into account, and list the actual penalty on the bottom of the tooltip.
  • Item vs Item comes with an auto filling socket mechanism. When a new piece of gear is hovered over, the item dps calculation will detect empty gem slots, and fill them with your preferred gems. This way you can get a closer estimate of how useful this gear will be to you.
  • RhadaTip support trinket proc comparisons. Along with using the basic stats on the trinkets, RhadaTip will calculate the procs using your current scale values. This will save you lots of quick-sheet math during raids, or preparing your gear wish lists.
  • Hit cap and Expertise cap calculations per item. If an item has 300 hit on it, and you are 15 over the cap, none of the hit will be valued. For example... if the current equipped item had 350 hit, then the new item would be fully credited.
  • Full gear evaluation, and projected full gear value (as the result of swapping the tooltipped item with the currently equipped item). Item DPS is one thing, but things can change when you equip an item. To help with this, RhadaTip will model a new gear set and give you the projected DPS. This means that the item comparison is always accurate. Limiting the scope of the comparison only to the two items themselves will produce highly inaccurate results (as a consequence of passing the hit cap, breaking a tier set bonus etc) Thus, RhadaTip supports the hit (soft/hard) cap, the expertise hard cap, and tier set bonuses.
