Playerscore add-on (Gearscore)

Provides raid leaders on WOW a wealth of information.

The PlayerScore Add-on is the next evolution of GearScore and it provides World Of Warcraft players a utility for checking their amour that goes beyond simply giving it a score. Raid leaders will have access to more information about players’ equipment and they will get it instantly. Raid leaders gain access to more information through the Playerscore software.

With PlayerScore, you have an extensive range of options and every feature can be disabled if you are having memory or performance issues. There are features you can disable if you want to save space and only want access to certain pieces of infinite, and you can run the addon in Lite mode, which means it will have less of an effect on your performance. The Lite mode will disable the GUI all together and will just give you the information on tooltips. The information can be broken down into a few categories, and here they are:

Complete Raiding History

Get a breakdown of a players raiding history in an easy-to-read format that includes the number of bosses killed and the player’s top-tier raiding progression.

Equipment Layout

You can check the gear of a player manually and very quickly. There is a well-designed layout that allows raid leaders to see advanced item tooltips, plus it makes spotting bad items a lot easier, along with flags for enchantments, gems, and reforging.

Primary Stats

You can see the stats that a player is trying to gear for. You can see a breakdown of the stats that a player is going for in order to see if a player is stacking spell pen, or if a player has a 200% hit rating, or if a player is gearing for Agility, etc.

Talent Spec

See the current build for a player and have PlayerScore notify you if a player is using certain talents. You can flag the talents that are bad for a spec, and it tells you if the player is using that talent.

Automatic Character Auditing

You can see a list of flags on PlayerScore that shows you if a player has a bad gem or a missing gem, or a bad/missing enhancement. You can see if a player has missing equipment or poor talent specs and you can also see if a player is wearing the amour or equipment that other class or spec. You can see if a player is using PVP items or if a player is riding TRH.

Player Ratings

With PlayerScore you can see how players have been rated based on thumbs up and thumbs down scores. You can find out if other players are bad at the game or if they do not play well with others.
