Looking for an idea for an online tool or ipad app for EQ2

Hail fellow Norrathians,

I'd love to work on a small site/tool for EverQuest II so I have a fun project to work on but I'm short of ideas so far SMILEY

( Considering that a lot of things can't be done without reliable access to all the quest/mob data. )

The only vague idea of a useful tool I've thought so far is a page that lets you easily see what spells you should buy Masters or Research depending on your current level, to make the most of your plats and research time. It does not seem terribly useful though.

Do you have any ideas to share?

Something I've always felt to be lacking is an option for the Research window to show only the highest rank of each spell displayed, in the same way as it can be done in the Knowledge book. I know it can be sorted by level, but that doesn't show for instance that the highest version of this spell is at level 75, while that one has another version at 85.

They need to fix the freakin forums to work on the iphone/ipad first lol. You cannot reply to a message unless you hit the HTML box.

I think both of you have nice suggestions, looking to see research spells is nice. I wish the iphone app worked out which linked you to eq2players, it would have been nice to have seen what gear my alts have for when Im in a raid and we get an alt gear loot drop, maybe look into that as well. I think a lot of people like apps that let you check on their toons, their stats, what gear they are wearing, etc.
