Researching Items

Mordenkaiser

Hi Folks,

First a little about me.

I'm 39 Blacksmith and level 49. I as of this moment have every Blacksmith upgrade i can (next level is last tier of mat and final improved Tempers).

That being said I am terribly vexxed.

You see I try to learn every trait I encounter, up until I recently got AI research grid, I kept all my researched traits on a piece of paper beside my desk, further more I have held onto the lowest level item I have that has any trait I have no yet researched.

I find myself at a annoyiing quandry and am looking for advice. As it stands I have far too many items in my bags/bank that still require research. I have also taken to mailing stuff to my friend in packages of traits that i will not probably research till much later (infused/Charged/powered for example) and then got him to return to sender those batches of items, I note down what traits I have sitting in my mail box.

I stiill find myself clawing for space, I do wish I didn't feel myself breaking into a cold sweat and have to scour spreadsheets I've written when I go to deconstruct an item to know whether I have the trait.

So my question is one of convenience.

Is there a add on perhaps that makes deconstruction a less hair raising task, my goal is simple. I wish to not deconstruct traits I have not yet researched without some sort of prompt, barring that then a more effect method to store those traited items without fear of deconstructiog them (since we can do that even from our bank)

Thoughts or maybe Add-on advice?

also off topic, anyone know if theres a good accurate character sheet add on yet that actually compiles your stats and properly updates?

There is an add on called Research Assistant

Get Research Assistant Remix. Works better for me at least.
For stats check ShowMyStats.

Remix is discontinued

Oh! hadn't actually noticed that. Appreciate the info.

Ah excellent, many thanks

I haven't looked into the add-on yet.
For traits that I know I want, but won't have space for them for a while, I tend to have my alt pick them up from the bank and hold onto them so that I don't accidentally deconstruct them.

This does exactly what you are looking for as well, using it in conjunction with RA makes life awesome.

I hot key this and can check what I have and don't have anywhere/anytime, then the color coding from RA lets me decide on the spot if I need to save an item or scrap it.
