Breakables
Description
Displays a bar on screen that allows quick access to enchanting, jewelcrafting, and inscription professions by presenting a Disenchant/Prospect/Mill button and all of the breakable items you have for that profession next to it. Also displays a bar for any locked junkboxes in your inventory if you're a Rogue. This allows one-click access for breaking down items instead of finding the item in your bag, clicking the appropriate profession/skill button, and clicking the item for each and every item you want to break. For prospecting and milling, you will see the number of items you have alongside the number of times you can break it. In the prospecting screenshot next to the addon name on this page, the player has 169 total Saronite Ore in his bags which will allow for 33 total prospects.
Note
In 10.0, Blizzard completely changed how Prospecting and Milling works, so this addon can only help with Lockpicking and Disenchanting. If a method is added for addons to once again programmatically Prospect or Mill, Breakables will be updated to support it.
Usage
By default, if you have the appropriate profession and items in your inventory, a bar will appear with the profession ability followed by any items that are eligible for breaking. You can hold shift to drag the bar around if you want to move it. Clicking the profession button will activate that ability (disenchant/prospect/mill) and clicking an item will break it. You don't have to click the profession button first as simply clicking the item will automatically break it down. Right-clicking a breakable button will add that item to the ignore list so it won't show up again. The ignore list can be managed from the configuration panel.
Configuration
Typing /brk will open the configuration settings (or you can get to it from Blizzard's Interface options) which consist of:
- Hide if no breakables: this will control whether you see the profession button or not when nothing breakable is detected
- Max number to display: this controls the highest number of items that you will see next to your profession button. If this is 5 but you have 10 breakable items in your bags, you will only see 5 at a time.
- Show soulbound items: aimed at enchanters, this controls whether or not you will see items that are soulbound as breakable items or not.
Known issues
- If you have more than 5 of a breakable item but split into stacks all smaller than 5, the game will say you do not have enough items to break. The default UI now has a built-in button to compress stacks that should solve this issue.
- If you know Mass Milling for a specific type of herb, the current alpha will try to use this ability and fail. I am in the process of leveling a scribe up high enough to debug this problem.
Updated to the version you linked and it's working great. Thanks a lot!
Hi,
Love this addon for disenchanting. Makes life so much easier. For some reason it isnt showing up for my prospecting of ores. Is there any fix for this?
Thanks.
nevermind, mass prospecting in the actual profession, my bad.
Thanks.
i love this addon but Mass milling doesn't seem to work. i have mass milling for foxflower yet it still only mills 5 at a time
I don't have any way of testing this right now, so my code was guesswork. I'll try to get access to someone who can mass mill these herbs soon.
What do you need to figure it out? i have mass mill for all the legion stuff
I'd really need to login to a character with the abilities in question. If you want to tell me what the game says when you type the following, that could help.
/script print(IsSpellKnown(209660))
/script print(IsPlayerSpell(209660))
/script print(IsUsableSpell(209660))
/script print(IsSpellKnown(209660))
false
/script print(IsPlayerSpell(209660))
true
/script print(IsUsableSpell(209660))
false false
Odd, but thanks. The latest alpha of Breakables should work for you, based on that. https://www.wowace.com/media/files/945/849/Breakables-1.4.2-1-g619e0f7.zip
tested. Regular milling without the mass mill skill works just fine. now when i click on an herb i have mass milling for it doesn't do anything at all. before this update it would still mill the herb regularly.
Okay, thanks. I'll have to just level one of my scribes up, I guess. For now just roll back to the previous version. I appreciate you testing it for me.
I may have fixed this problem in the latest alpha. Grab it from https://www.wowace.com/addons/breakables/files/ if you want to give it a shot. (I still haven't gotten leveled up to Mass Milling yet, but I was able to find something similar with regular milling.)
@tednik
I don't have time to add support in right now, but it's possible, sure. I always accept submissions from users.
is there any way for this to support mass milling and mass prospecting
heres a bug: for a few of the draenor herbs (the ones that contain the full name in their broken version), if the broken version is placed before the herb in your bag, the mod will attempt to mill the broken version (which you cant) and give the error "you cannot mill that". you need to stack these broken versions in 10s and use them.
also, legion, new plants.
Thanks for the report.
Yes! Legion please!! I miss this!!
Hi. Can you make this addon work with Draenic Mortar, plz.
I'll see what I can do.
