Description:

This addon can inspect the gear of yourself, your target, your party members, or your raid members. You can choose which slots to inspect, or you can inspect all of them (except for shirt and tabard). After performing an inspection, you can change your choice of slots without having to re-inspect. The addon will update the lists and totals based on your choices.

You can view the results of the inspection in summary and details windows. The lists can be sorted by clicking on the column headings. The summary window shows each player's name, class, total item level (iLevel), and average item level. The details window shows each piece of gear that was inspected, the player's name, and the item level of the gear.

In the summary window you can select lines using Click, Ctrl Click, and Shift Click, or you can use the 'Select all' and 'Unselect all' buttons. The 'Announce' button will allow you to send the selected lines to the party, raid, or officer chat channels. If nothing is selected then all the lines are announced. The lines are announced in the same order that they are display in the window, starting from the topmost selected line.

In the details window you can hover the mouse over a line to see a tooltip showing the details about the gear on that line.

Gear influence on some vehicle fights:

The Flame Leviathan fight in Ulduar uses vehicles which are influenced by the gear that the players are wearing. Epic gear influences the vehicles more than non-epic gear (even if they are the same item level).

There is an option provided to adjust the item levels of non-epic gear. This option will subtract an amount from the gear's item level based on the quality of the gear (13 for rare/blue gear, 26 for uncommon/green gear, 39 for common/white gear, and 52 for poor/grey gear).

One of the slots you can inspect is flagged with an asterisk (off hand). This slot does not influence the Flame Leviathan vehicles. It should be unchecked when inspecting players for that fight so that it does not affect the totals and averages.
