As of 3.3.0, it's up-to-date and doing well.Brickflankhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14109247652609488977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5881900998703125492.post-56863769133293626482009-03-23T20:55:00.000-07:002009-03-23T20:55:00.000-07:00Nice addon, but is it being updated at all?

I mostly know what items I want and I go and figure it out before hand. But it is always open when I am raiding. As soon as something possibly interesting drops I alt-tab and check out the value of the item compared to my current gear and then bid or not.Marinonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5881900998703125492.post-70914097253913032182009-03-24T01:40:00.000-07:002009-03-24T01:40:00.000-07:00Use Pawn!

As a resto druid who is also assembling a cat and bear set, Pawn is essential for an at-a-glance view as to the desirability of an item, (Unfortunately, Pawn is unable to account for diminishing returns, so it's not perfect, but it's great 95% of the time).<br><br>There are some pre-built Pawn profiles for bears floting around out there (check the Pawn forums, EJ, maybe Flyv's blog?) but everything will change shortly anyway, so it's best to learn how to build your own.Alaronhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01526148680915862856noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5881900998703125492.post-77294688452485707672009-03-24T05:23:00.000-07:002009-03-24T05:23:00.000-07:00As CH says, use Pawn!

He wrote both RatingBuster and TankPoints, and it looks like the former has consumed more of his attention lately.<br><br>I might crack open the lua files for TankPoints and fix it myself.Brickflankhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07466398730828750213noreply@blogger.com
