Addon to tell me what to do with drops

[CShadowRun]

GearScore keeps sending me round in circles telling me that the item in my bag is better than what's equipped, so i equip it, and it says that the item i unequipped is better than the one equipped

basically it's saying that 2 items are better than eachother :S

Any other suggestions?

If you want the best answer, go somewhere like elitistjerks.com

From there, research your PvE or PvP class thread.
Figure which stats are best for you.

For example, an Elemental Shaman performs better with equal stats and less haste, then equal stats but slightly more haste for four specific haste ranges. As in, your gear remains unchanged, but you have the option of adding a haste enchant, which stacks with gems and other enchants. At certain haste ranges, you're better off without this piece then with it.

Every class or potentially spec, has different gear priorities.

In general, 1% hit or 1% crit (if you gain 100% extra damage on a crit) are equal.
But if your hit capped, the crit is better. If you're not hit capped, because of itemization, hit is better.

Basically 1% hit is whatever hit rating. 1% crit is whatever crit rating.
1 hit rating and 1 crit rating cost the same number of itemization points.
However you gain 1% benefit for a small amount of hit rating then crit rating.

Because of this, two pieces which are both item level 100...
If they have say 20 sta, 20 int, 15 hit rating and 20 spell power.

A same item level piece but crit instead of hit will be:
20 sta, 20 int, 15 crit, 20 spell power.

However, the 15 hit rating gets you a larger boost then the 15 crit rating.

Prioritize which stats are worth the most to you.

If you have an effect which grants a boost anytime you crit..
For example Holy Paladin..
Then Crit might be prioritized higher then normal.

On the other hand Elemental Shaman gets 35% of their damage from Lava Burst...
Which always crits, therefore 35% of your crit is useless (ie, does nothing for you).
It's still a great stat for the initial portion of Flame Shock and Lightning spells.
But, whatever the rating on the piece, only 2/3rds of that rating helps your damage.
