Shadowlands & The Armory

zoopercat

Patch 7.0 Armory

Is your character not updating?

The armory usually takes a bit to update with expansions and major patches. That means there are currently some issues loading your character, some gear, or azerite powers.

BUT!! We always have a workaround for this. You can use our addon to update your character.

How to use our in-game addon to update your character:

All steps are part of the FREE site. No need to subscribe.

1 – Update the Ask Mr. Robot addon. Don’t have it? Get it from Twitch.

2 – Optional: activate each spec one time, in game (this lets the addon read everything for each spec if you’re already playing multiple specs).

3 – Open all of your bags and bank (you only need to do this one time after installing the addon). This lets the addon pick up all of the gear you own.

4 – Then open the Mr. Robot addon (click on the minimap icon or type /amr show). Go to the “Export” tab in the addon. Copy the text in the box on that screen.

5 – Go to the Ask Mr. Robot website. Click on your character’s name to open the character picker.  Paste the text in the addon section, as shown below.

6 – After you paste it, your character automatically loads with all the right gear.

 Kicking the API into gear

Sometimes when the armory has issues, the API gets ‘stuck’ on some characters. One way to jumpstart the API again is to login to WoW. Change something on your character, like a piece of gear, etc. Logout. That sometimes forces an update for your character on the blizzard API. Also, since this is untested, it’s possible we have to update something on our end. I will update this post as we find things.
