Spec Proposal: Rich Will-Type Tooltips for Sentient Weapons & Tools #2177

Description

@Saereth

The Animus bloodmagic addon adds an enhanced tooltip to the Sentient Bow (ItemSentientBow#appendHoverText) that goes beyond the minimal currentType line already present on upstream sentient items.

Scope

Apply the expanded tooltip pattern to:

  • ItemSentientSword
  • ItemSentientAxe
  • ItemSentientPickaxe
  • ItemSentientShovel
  • ItemSentientScythe

Each currently shows only a flavour line + tooltip.bloodmagic.currentType..

Proposed Tooltip Contents

Per item, in order:

  1. Flavour line: existing tooltip.bloodmagic..desc (unchanged, italic gray).
  2. Attuned will type: highlighted (color depending on type), ie. "Attuned: Destructive". Promotes the existing currentType line to a more scannable color.
  3. Will level + pool: computed client-side from the player's will of the current type: "Level 3 (240 will)".
  4. Per-level effect readout: the item's headline scaling stat at the current level:
    - Sword/Axe/Pickaxe/Shovel: bonus damage
    - Scythe: bonus damage + AoE radius (scythe already tracks both)
    - Will type specific riders (for example, Vengeful lifesteal %, Corrosive poison duration) behind a "hold Shift" expand.
