Gear Advisor errors

[track03pvp]

Hello, I've been noticing over the past couple of days that gear advisor is giving questionable suggestions on a couple of different characters of mine. Here is one from today:

says that
Veteran's Skullcap:
Leather, 160 armor, +19 agility, +30 stamina, Equip: Increases attack power by 38

is 35 % better than
Dreghood Cowl of the Bandit:
Leather, 174 armor, +21 agility, +32 stamina, +43 Attack Power

It looks like the attack power is not being scored on the old item. I'll have to have one of our dev guys look at it to see if he can spot what's happening.

[track03pvp]

thanks, let me know!

They found that Blizzard likes to send info on attack power in 2 different formats which we didn't know was happening. They will get it patched up as soon as they can.

item oddity.pngI am noticing it too, noticed on a few things today that on one ring that was the same exact ring that it was trying to give me the old ring as an upgrade when the older ring had obviously lower stats, and would I would lose those stats. This was on my beast master hunter also.

The picture you posted shows nothing from Zygor for a suggestion. The tooltips displayed are showing Pawn information and normal tooltip info with additional information from some other addon. When you get a pop up gear suggestion that you think is wrong please hold the Shift key and click on Decline to generate a gear system bug report and post that bug report here.
