📜 Changelog Highlights

GearScoreLite TBC Edition - Changelog

Version 4.0.4-TBC (T4/T5 Scoring Fix)

CRITICAL FIX:

  • 🔧 FIXED: T4/T5 Scoring Inversion Issue
    • Extended T4 item level range from 110-120 to 110-127
    • Resolves issue where T5 items (Nordrassil Chestguard, ilvl 133) scored lower than T4 items (Chestguard of Malorne, ilvl 120)
    • Items at ilvl 120-127 now properly assigned to T4 tier instead of falling between T4 and T5
    • Ensures proper scoring progression: T5 items now consistently score higher than T4 items
  • 📋 UPDATED: Documentation
    • All files updated to reflect corrected T4 range (110-127)
    • README.md, README-TBC.txt, and formula comments synchronized

TECHNICAL DETAILS:

  • Root Cause: Gap between T4 (110-119) and T5 (128+) caused ilvl 120-127 items to be improperly categorized
  • Solution: Extended T4 upper bound to ilvl 127 to eliminate scoring gap
  • Impact: Proper tier assignment ensures accurate relative scoring between T4 and T5 items
