WoWAnalyzer is a tool to help you analyze and improve your World of Warcraft raiding performance through various relevant metrics and gameplay suggestions.
You don't need to to do anything special to contribute. The real issue preventing specs from being worked out is that in order to make something useful for a spec, you need to have the following 3 properties:
- Know the spec well enough to actually create something useful
- Know how to program well enough to implement the analysis (or be willing to learn)
- Have the time and motivation to actually do it
See the contributing guidelines if you want to give it a try.
All contributions, big or small, are welcome. You are welcome to contribute to this project with whatever level of contribution you are comfortable with. We have no expectations for the amount or frequency of contributions from anyone.
We want to share ownership and responsibility with the community where possible. To help with this we hand out write access when we deem pull requests consistently of sufficient quality. This isn't always on our mind though so if you think you qualify please contact an admin.
This project aims to give users tools to analyze their performance. The most important part of this is providing automated suggestions towards improving their performance based on recorded fights. This makes it so users can quickly, without any hassle and at any time consult this tool to find out points of improvement for their next pull.
Our focus:
- Focus on one player at a time. A major reason for this is simplicity and giving the user a feeling of importance, but also because the Warcraft Logs API effectively only makes this available.
- The priority is raid fights, other environments aren't really supported. While it would be nice to show things like who killed the most Explosive Orbs, we can't really with the API endpoints available to us.
- Clear and concise suggestions that allow a user to quickly understand what potential issues and changes they need to make to improve. No hassle.
We also provide more advanced statistics such as item performance displays. These can be used to help pick what item to use or to see how effective certain abilities are that you can't find out elsewhere. These are secondary to suggestions and other tools that can be used to improve one's performance.
