Welcome to the EasyDestroy wiki!
EasyDestroy is meant to make your life easier when it comes to mass-disenchanting items. While Blizzard limits how many items we can disenchant at a time (1 button = 1 disenchant) this addon seeks to make your life easier by letting you determine which items in your bags should be disenchanted with filters. This documentation is to help you with getting to use the filter system to the fullest.
EasyDestroy works by using filters to include or exclude items from a list of items it generates from the items in your bags. That is to say, it searches your bags for items that meet the criteria you set in a filter.
Filters come in two types, Searches and Blacklists. A search is just that, it allows you to search your bags for items to disenchant. Any item in your bag that meets the criteria of the search will be included - with some basic exceptions filtered out by default.
EasyDestroy has 2 windows that you will use. The Easy Destroy (a.k.a. "Item") window and the Filter Editor window.
The main window shows you what items you will be disenchanting. The top item in the list is always the item that will be disenchanted when you click the Disenchant button. This window allows you to select from the list of your saved Searches and/or Blacklists based on which boxes are checked. If both boxes are checked, the drop down menu will include both Searches and Blacklists, separated by a line with Searches on top and Blacklists on the bottom.
The Filter Editor window allows you to build searches and blacklists. Searches are in real-time, changes to the filter editor window will have immediate results in the Item Window. Blacklists only work once saved. You are able to save a Search using the star icon to the right of the Filter Name in the Filter Editor.
When you are editing Blacklist in the Filter Editor, you will see which items the blacklist will exclude from searches.
Note: You cannot currently edit Blacklists or Searches without having the relevant box checked in the Item Window. This means if you are working on a filter and mark it as a blacklist, then the Blacklists box will be checked on the Item Window.
The default filter currently:
- Only includes items that are Weapons or Armor.
- Does not include Armor items that have the sub-type of Cosmetic (Note: Blizzard does not always mark all cosmetic items correctly.)
Searches allow you to find items in your bags that meet the criteria you set (a.k.a. a whitelist). Only the active search criteria in the Filter Editor window are used when filtering for items to show.
Blacklists allow you to exclude items from your bags from searches. While only an active search is used when finding items to show you, all blacklists are active at all times. When you are editing a blacklist, you will see the items it is going to exclude from your normal searches.
