Character Pane
QUI enhances the default Character and Inspect frames with detailed equipment overlays, stat formatting options, and visual customization. At a glance you can see item levels with upgrade tracks, enchant status, gem indicators, and durability – all directly on the character panel without needing external addons or mouseover tooltips.
Overview
The character pane module adds information-dense overlays to each equipment slot on both your own character frame and the inspect frame when viewing other players. Item names, item levels with upgrade track indicators, enchant status with warnings for missing enchants, gem socket indicators, and durability bars are all rendered directly on top of the equipment slots. The module also reformats the stats panel with customizable text sizing, secondary stat display formats, and color options.
How to Enable
The character pane enhancements are enabled by default. To configure them:
- Open
/quiand navigate to the Character tab.

Tips
The inspect frame overlays use the same configuration as your own character frame. This makes it easy to compare gear – the same information is presented in the same format whether you are looking at your own character or inspecting someone else.
The “No Enchant” warning is intentionally prominent (red text) to help you catch missing enchants before entering content. If an equipment slot supports enchants and none is applied, the warning will appear. This is especially useful after equipping new gear.
The secondary stat format “both” option shows values like “25.3% (1,240)” so you can see the effective percentage alongside the raw rating. This is helpful for understanding stat breakpoints and diminishing returns.
