trying to find an addon....

Trying to find an addon that I cannot remember that made my life easier.

It was great, when I hovered over a piece of equipment, it would show two windows: the item I am hovering, and the item of the same slot that I currently had equipped.

It kept me from having to open my character sheet every time I looted a piece of armor or weapon to see if it was an upgrade or not.

Please advise! Thank you!

There's tekKompare, or you could hold down shift while hovering over a new item to see your current equipped.

There's also Rating Buster.
It also puts up the second window and shows the difference in stats at the bottom of the tooltip.

I use RatingBuster, and take it one step nerdier with Pawn. Like the description says, if you regularly read Elitist Jerks, then this is the addon you want. It goes a few steps further in that EP value scales are available for each class and spec which give you a better idea of what will be an upgrade.

You have something else popping up the compare tooltip (without having to hold shift). Because RB does not do this.

Sadly EQcompare is so outdated now, I just use RatingBuster with the Shift key.

EquipCompare works just fine. Better then Tek's version imo.

Just to clarify...

EQCompare ~= EquipCompare
