Simple iLevel shows the Average Item Level (AiL) of people you target or who are in your group in the tooltip. There are many checks in place to make sure you aren't repeatedly scanning their gear when it isn't required.
Scores
SIL does not take your spec or what is on your gear (SIL Resilience does) into account when computing a score. It just sums the iLevel of all your gear and then comes up with the average, there is a little magic with heirlooms so they are properly registered, unlike the default blizzard iLevel. You can view the average score for your group by typing /sil group
, that can also be outputted to party, raid or bg by doing /sil group party
or just /sil group p
.
Gray Score
A score will show up as gray if there are 8 items or less making up the score. The best way to get a proper score of someone is to target them and then do /sil target
to force a fresh score.
Slash Commands

, /silev
or /simpleilevel
for options.

Known Issues
- Scores don't show up right away. Blizzard has an unknown limit on the rate you can inspect people. There is no proper API however LibInspect tries to fix that.
- No score is shown on health or mana bars. There appears to be a bug in the default UI when you mouseover someone there is a game tooltip however
UnitName("mouseover")
doesn't return anything.
Localization
If you would like SIL in your own language please fill out the localization information and it will be included in the next build. There are some that have been localized but not updated in a while and we are still looking for someone to translate it to esMX and esES.
Major Changes in 3.0
- Several separate projects on Curse were merged into the SIL Core project. This includes SIL Resilience and SIL Social.
- Those modules, as well as SIL Group, are now loaded on-demand, you can disable them on a per-character basis.
- SIL Group: This module includes almost all of the group features that used to be in the core addon. This has been separated so that people can disable it if they want to.
- SIL Social: This module displays the AIL of people in the party, raid, and guild chat. You can pick and chose what channels it shows up in or completely disable the module.
- There is now a fairly stable API that developers can use to extend SIL any which way. If there is a feature you would like to see added to the API please send me a message on CurseForge or on twitter.
- Migrated over to LibInspect to separate inspecting and SIL. This will hopefully mean that I can get more developers interested in working on the Inspection part of this and other addons using one central library.
- Added more customization options and changed a few defaults around. You can now completely disable score coloring, auto-purge is turned on to 15 days by default so the DB won't grow too big.
- Added smart group scanning where it will only scan every 5 seconds for the person with the lowest amount of items, oldest score, or lowest score within certain thresholds.
