Autoqol

I have been an avid World of Warcraft player for years. Throughout my experience I have played competitively at high levels in both PvP and PvE. With my experience I wanted to make a simple yet impactful change on gameplay and allow the player to enjoy my favorite part of the game more often, the combat.

AutoQOL is an addon that automates and optimizes two different features of World of Warcraft that reduce character downtime.

-Automatically and instantly loots the targeted creature.

-Automatically and instantly repairs all your gear when you are at a vendor.

Positive Outcomes

1. Optimal Gear Condition: Ensuring your gear is in good condition is crucial for optimal performance in raids, dungeons, and PvP. If your gear breaks, it becomes useless until you repair it.
2. Focus on Gameplay: By automating the repair process, players can focus more on the core gameplay aspects rather than worrying about the state of their gear. It minimizes interruptions and keeps the focus on questing, combat, or other activities within the game.
3. Inventory Management: AutoQOL helps maintain a clean and open inventory. Creating room for more important items without having to waste time sorting through useless items offering a smoother experience.
4. Improved Gameplay Flow: Swift looting allows for a smoother gameplay experience, preventing interruptions during combat or exploration. It keeps the momentum going and enables players to stay engaged without frequent pauses to loot.
5. Increased Farming Speed: For players focused on gathering resources or farming specific items, faster looting means they can gather more materials in a shorter amount of time. This is especially valuable for professions like mining, herbalism, or skinning.

Potential Problems

1. Breaks RP Immersion: It is important to note that while AutoQOL offers convenience, it might not be for everyone. Some players enjoy the immersion of manually managing their gear, and seeing each piece of loot before they pick it up.
