ReforgeLite - WoW AddOns

Overview

ReforgeLite is a lightweight reforging calculator that helps you figure out the optimal strategy to reforge your gear given your stat weights and caps without leaving the game.

How to use it

To open the addon window, type /reforge or talk to the reforging master. On the left half of the window you can see your current item stats for reference.
On the right side you can set up stat weights/caps, or select an existing preset.
You can select up to two capped stats (e.g. hit rating and expertise rating). For each stat, you can select an arbitrary number of threshold values which change the weight of the stat once it passes this value. You can either set the threshold value manually, or use a preset (e.g. melee hit cap). You can also force the stat value to be above or below the treshold.

Alternatively, you can uncheck the "Specify weights" box and set up stat priorities via a more intuitive interface. Again, you can only have two capped stats - e.g. if you specify limits for hit and expertise, setting limits for haste will have no effect.

When you're done setting up weights/caps, press Calculate. Since it might take too much time (and run out of memory due to Lua limitations), it might trade some precision for speed, but the loss should be minimal. You can click the Calculate button several times to achieve the best result.

Once the calculation finishes, you will see a section with your stats after reforging, and the difference from your current stats. Click on the Show button to see which items should be reforged. Items that you have already reforged in the suggested way will have checks next to them; you can check some items manually if you do not wish to reforge them.
If the reforging UI is open, you can click on the Reforge button to automatically reforge all items in the selected way. Do not interfere in the process (clicking the cancel button or closing the reforging UI is fine). Caution: some users have reported it getting stuck reforging the same item over and over, so it is best to watch the process to avoid losing gold.

Known issues

I'm getting wrong results: If you think the results you got are incorrect, first make sure the weights are set up correctly. E.g. if you set mastery higher than crit, don't be surprised that your items are reforged to mastery. If you still think something is wrong, click the Debug button at the bottom of settings, and e-mail the dump to me at d07.riv@gmail.com so I can find the problem.

Seems to be a lot of unaddressed comments at http://www.curse.com/addons/wow/reforgelite

I have been getting incorrect reforges, using both advanced and basic. Specially when the stat weights are close including excess over expertise caps despite setting it with a 0 over weight =). Sites like wowreforge are giving me far more accurate results but I really dislike using them. I have been a strong supporter of this addon, I am the "min/max" guy for my progression guild and dabble in all classes. I have them all on this addon, many are showing the same results. I wish I had more info to give but perhaps you could spare some time to hop in game and run a few tests? I am sure the community would name their first born after you, Iroared, son of .... perhaps not. Anyways, love the addon and thank you for your contribution to the community.

I am talking about Windwalker haste cap for energy capping. Windwalkers want about 5-6k haste as well as hit and expertise cap. We weren't talking about problems with numbers being wrong, we were talking about needing the 3 or more different stats that we can set caps for instead of just 2.

I have this problem as well. On my warlock, I can reforge using the default Affliction profile, but that's it. If I try any other profile, it does nothing.

If you're talking about reforging for Mistweaver haste breakpoints, you need to make sure that you're in tiger stance when you calculate or you'll get the wrong results.

What cawesley wrote.. I love this addon, and it makes everything much easier - but ever since switching to a monk where you have a certain haste cap you want to achieve, this addon just doesnt suffice.

I love this addon. I don't know how much easier it has made reforging for me. I was wondering though, is it possible to have 3 cap stats? On my windwalker monk, I need hit and expertise caps, but would also like to add a haste cap so then everything over that can get thrown into haste. I'm not sure, but I think other classes might be like this too. Any input you could give would be greatly appreciated.

For me it doesn't work at all. When using the calculate button nothing happens. All the calculated is showing zero.

Also, it is marked as outdated.
