Great news! Thanks so much for your work on it and good luck fixing that bug!

Looking forward to seeing the release.

I've been experimenting with itemlist.xml and itemstats, and before I embark on writing a complete parser for the item_html (the tooltip, basically), has anyone already written one I can borrow?

I know there's xml information available for each item from allakhazam, but its format seems rather 'heavy' -- e.g. crit rating links to a different spell for each amount of crit rating, which then would need to be parsed to see how much crit rating it gives... it seems a lot simpler to just parse the tooltip.

Have you tried to pull the data directly from the armory? The format seems to be rather elegant. Do "View Source" to see the xml. And you don't need to go start parsing html.

I have not!

That data is very clean, compared to allakhazam's database structure.

Thanks for sharing

Hmm, allakhazam apparently doesn't know about block rating...
compare:
http://wow.allakhazam.com/db/item.ht...ve;witem=29011
to
http://www.wowhead.com/?item=29011

Anyone else seeing this?

In any case, using some creative scripting, I put together a sample spreadsheet of plate chestpieces and their relevant warrior stats.

This version just has chestpieces, but I'd like to share it with others in hopes of getting feedback in terms of what folks like, what folks don't like and what people would like to see:

Known Shortcomings
- No Socket Bonus
- Block Rating isn't showing up (this is a bug with allakhazam)

Did you ever make a simple item database or item database creator? I want to work on one for various projects, but my knowledge of how to parse webpages is nonexistent.

yah, it is conceptually very easy to get everything in the armory that way Copernicus. I'm not sure if I want to commit to spending the time to do so (easy doesnt mean quick :p ). I'll think about it.

Let me map a priority list out for you so that you can refer to it in the future:
1. Money 2. Money 3. PvE 4. Mages 5. Companion pets 6. PvP

I have posted a new thread in the "class mechanics" forum, due to the fact that I think the people there will have an over all greater use for this than the small subset of us who write mods and the like. I hope i dont make gurg or kaubel angry by doing so, but it makes more sense in my mind to have it there.

Dunno if anyone is still interested in this, but I've just uploaded a new version of WowEquip with full jewelcrafting support.

It also has a "DKP calc" which allows you to assign weights to each stat and will then rank items by their weighting. It can do this for up to 50 different stats on a per class basis.

This is kinda old, but I am about halfway through downloading all XMLs from armory for equippable items (it takes 1-2 days so that I don't get IP banned), I wonder if anyone could be interested in those.

Edit: done, items.zip (3170 K), contains data for 20758 equippable items (not including ammo/bags/quivers)

Contains 208 item0001.xml-item0208.xml files with 100 items each; each file has a root element <items> and for every item has an element <item> which has as children <itemTooltip> node from wowarmory/item-tooltip.xml and <item> node from wowarmory/item-info.xml.
Additionally, I have included an index.txt file which contains a list of all included items, their ID and the file they can be found in, along with position in that file.

Also, if you find an equippable item that can be found in armory but is not in my list, I would be very interested in it.

Edit2: so far I only found "Mark of the Spider" (id 35666).
