What this mod does
This mod will allow you to automatically roll greed, need, pass, or if the setting is disabled, let you manually roll on loot based on customized loot rules.
By adding customized rules, you can do things like roll greed on all Bind on Equip items, except in Karazhan. You could also let it ignore all Bind on Pickup items, to let you manually roll on them.
Features
Automatic loot settings for each category:
- Need - This will roll need on the loot in this rule.
- DE - If an enchanter is present this will roll disenchant
- Greed - This will roll greed on the loot in this rule.
- Pass - This will automatically pass on the loot in this rule.
- If no loot method is selected, you will have to manually roll on the items.
- You may select multiple methods.
Loot rules can filter loot based on the following:
- Bind on status
- Class / Spec
- Equip slot
- Group/Raid
- Inventory (Do you already own an item)
- Item Level
- Item Name (partial or exact)
- Item Price
- Item Type and SubType
- Learned Item (recipes/mounts)
- Loot Won Counter/Comparison (How often you have won an item with the rule)
- Player Name
- Quality
- Required Level (or formula based on current level)
- Uniqueness
- Usable Items (things that you can equip/use)
- Zone
- Zone Type
- Confirm BoP filter to accept BoP item popups
- Confirm DE filter to accept DE item popups (use care with this one)
Logic
- Rules are checked for a match in the order they appear.
- You may have more than one of the same type of filter.
- Each filter type must have at least one match.
- Items may not match any exception.
- If ( matched rule ) then ( roll ) else ( skip rule )
- Rolling is attempted in the following order: Need > DE > Greed > Pass. (Depending on what is selected)
Logic Example 1
- Quality -> Rare
- Quality -> Epic
- Binds on -> None
- Binds on -> Equip
- Binds on -> Use
This will match IF (Rare OR Epic) AND (None OR Equip OR Use)
Logic Example 2
- Item Type -> Armor
- Item Type -> Weapon
- Item Type -> Plate Armor (exception)
- Item Type -> 2hd Maces (exception))
This will match IF (Armor OR Weapons) AND NOT (Plate OR 2hd Mace)
Logic Example 3
- Quality -> Rare
- Quality -> Epic
- Binds on -> Pickup
- Usable -> Unsuable
- Zone Name -> Halls of Reflection (exception)
- Zone Name -> Pit of Saron (exception)
This will match IF (Rare OR Epic) AND (BoP) AND (Unusable) AND NOT (HoR OR PoS)
Roll Logic Examples
- -Need +DE +Greed -Pass = DE > Greed
- +Need -DE +Greed -Pass = Need > Greed
- +Need -DE -Greed +Pass = Need > Pass
- -Need +DE -Greed -Pass = DE > Manual roll
Basic Usage
- To open the configuration menu, type /passloot
- Use Add button to create a new rule (Rules are processed in the order they are listed)
- To remove a rule, select the rule and click the remove button
- To move a rule up and down in the list, select the rule and click the up/down buttons
- Once a rule has been selected, you can edit the description or change it's filters.
- To add a filter to the selected rule, select the filter you wish to add and click add.
- To remove a filter, select the filter in the Active Filters window and click remove. (You can also shift-right click the filter)
- To edit an active filter, select the filter in the Active Filters window and change it's properties. (You may have multiple filters of the same type to match)
- To test an item to see how PassLoot would roll, type /passloot test <shift-click an item>
Example 1
If you want to roll greed on all BoE items, except when on a raid in Karazhan, you can do the following:
- Rule 1: (Greed)
- Zone -> Karazhan (Exception)
- Binds on -> Equip
- (You can add more Bind On filters to the rule if you wish to add Bind on None or Bind on Use.)
Example 2
The only way to have it roll Need if condition X is met, and Greed if condition Y is met is to have 2 separate rules.
You wish to manually roll on all epic items, roll greed on all rare non-bop items items, and roll Disenchant on anything else (and greed if no disenchant option is available)
- Rule 1: (nothing checked)
- Rule 2: (Greed)
- Binds on -> Pickup (exception)
- Quality -> Rare
- Rule3: (Greed + Disenchant)
Notes
- Default settings
- Mod: On (If this setting is off, it won't do automatic pass/greed/need on anything)
- Quiet: disabled (If this setting is enabled, you won't see what it rolls on)
- All loot categories are disabled by default to let you manually roll on them.
- When rolling greed or need on BoP items, WoW will still ask you if you are sure you want to roll since it will bind on pickup. If you want to auto click yes on the BoP confirmations, add a Confirm BoP filter to the rule.
- The Loot Won Counters are only incremented when you win loot. It will remember what rule was matched and will increment that counter accordingly.

- Going back to checkboxes instead of coin icons.
- Rolling order tried will be Need > DE > Greed > Pass.
Need + Pass will try Need > Pass
Need + Greed + Pass will try Need > Greed > Pass
DE + Greed will try DE > Greed
DE + Pass will try DE > Pass
I can't think of any situations where you would ROLL Need > Greed > DE. (It would roll Greed and never get to DE anyway, so why bother selecting DE as an option?)

Installation Guide
- Exit "World of Warcraft" completely
- Download the mod you want to install
- Make a folder on your desktop called "My Mods"
- Save the .zip/.rar files to this folder.
- If, when you try to download the file, it automatically "opens" it... you need to RIGHT click on the link and "save as..." or "Save Target As".
- Extract the file - commonly known as 'unzipping'
Do this ONE FILE AT A TIME!
- Windows
- Windows XP has a built in ZIP extractor. Double click on the file to open it, inside should be the file or folders needed. Copy these outside to the "My Mods" folder.
- WinRAR: Right click the file, select "Extract Here"
- WinZip: You MUST make sure the option to "Use Folder Names" is CHECKED or it will just extract the files and not make the proper folders how the Authors designed
- Mac Users
- StuffitExpander: Double click the archive to extract it to a folder in the current directory.
- Verify your WoW Installation Path
That is where you are running WoW from and THAT is where you need to install your mods.
- Move to the Addon folder
- Open your World of Warcraft folder. (default is C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\)
- Go into the "Interface" folder.
- Go into the "AddOns" folder.
- In a new window, open the "My Mods" folder.
- The "My Mods" folder should have the "Addonname" folder in it.
- Move the "Addonname" folder into the "AddOns" folder
- Start World of Warcraft
- Make sure AddOns are installed
- Log in
- At the Character Select screen, look in lower left corner for the "addons" button.
- If button is there: make sure all the mods you installed are listed and make sure "load out of date addons" is checked.
- If the button is NOT there: means you did not install the addons properly. Look at the above screenshots. Try repeating the steps or getting someone who knows more about computers than you do to help.
Translations
When you download a mod, please be sure that the mod is compatible with your translation of wow. Some mods only work on the US versions, while some only work on some of the various European versions. These variations are called "Localizations".
TOC Numbers (Out of Date Mods)
When Blizzard patches WoW, they change the Interface number. This means that all mods will be "out of date" unless or until the author releases a new version for that interface. Some people go into the .toc files and update the numbers themselves, but this is STRONGLY advised against as it will cause problems locating possible incompatibilities addons. When you log into WoW after a patch, you DO NOT have to delete your interface directory. All you have to do is simply tell WoW to ignore the interface numbers and load all the mods anyway. All you have to do is, while at the "character select" screen, look in the lower left corner and click on the "addons" button. A window will pop up listing all your installed mods.
If you look in the upper left corner of that window there should be a box that says "Load Out of Date AddOns". You want to CHECK this box. Now simply go into WoW normally and all your mods should load. As of the 1.9 patch, you will have to do this after EVERY patch/update that Blizzard posts! If you encounter any problems with a mod after a patch, please be sure to let the author of the mod know so they can fix it.

Mac Support
WoW addons are not platformed based. As such, they can be used on either Mac or PC. You can extract both .zip and .rar files on a Mac using StuffitExpander.
