Gw2ItemSearch - Search for items across your entire Guild Wars 2 account.

Type to search, or use filters to browse. Finds items in bank, shared inventory, material storage, every character's bags/equipment/equipment tabs, and trading post.

Installation:
1. Download Gw2ItemSearch.dll from the GitHub releases page
2. Copy into your Guild Wars 2/Addons/ folder
3. Launch the game — the setup wizard will appear
4. Enter your GW2 API key (requires: account, inventories, characters, tradingpost, unlocks)
5. Toggle the search window with Alt+F or the Nexus QuickAccess icon

Performance:
- Item database: ~73k items downloaded in ~30 seconds using 12 parallel connections
- Character scanning: all characters scanned simultaneously with 6 parallel workers
- Full first load completes in about 1 minute
- Subsequent loads are instant for unchanged characters (disk cache)

Features:
- Search items by name with type, rarity, subtype, and stat filters
- Browse inventory without a search query (filter-only mode)
- View stats, upgrades, infusions, and containment info in tooltips
- Background polling — character gear refreshes automatically as you play
- Offline mode — shows cached data immediately while latest data is fetched
- Stat choice filter (e.g. find all "Berserker's" items across every rarity)
- Icons loaded in background thread (no frame stutter)
- Right-click items for chat codes, wiki links, gw2efficiency, gw2bltc
- Settings persist across sessions

This is a port of the Gw2ItemSearch Blish HUD module by tentose (MIT).
