Tied scores share a place. Ranks use the same class, armor, weapon and level rules as the build pages; race, profession, reputation and training requirements still need an in-game check.

Where this data comes from

The tooltip, stats, set, recipes and icon come from the WoW Forever game files (build 1.60.1.70888). Drop, vendor and quest sources come from data collected from the live game, matched to the game’s item IDs. Rankings use editorial starter stat priorities, not simulated DPS. How scores work.
