I am playing a Fury Warrior atm,  and sporadically it will unequip my weapons and change gear (to gear that is way worse).
I have Auto-Equip and Gear Advisor turned off. 

I found somebody with the same issue here

Please fix this asap, it’s very annoying.

[Dugi]

I’m looking at the code if you have the option disabled I’m not sure how it can switch your weapon, are you sure its dugi? can you test with only dugi enabled.

I found this post after experiencing exactly the same thing. I experienced it at other times over the past  couple of years but my patience was greater then and the problem seemed transient.

Being less tolerant now, I have carried out advice elsewhere in these forums and disabled half the addons, the problem continued so I re-enabled and disabled the other half and so on, with each problematic half until finally down to two add-ons; Dugi and ElvUI. Disabling either appears to stop the ‘bug’, so something is going awry in their interaction with each-other and the WoW Client.

Obviously, the fault could be in ElvUI, but everything seems fine in its interactions with the other 30+ add-ons I use (which I suppose means nothing) but… (a) ElvUI has no setting or code that I know of for moving or equipping gear, (b) this was the only post of its kind found by Google and (c) we gotta start somewhere. 

I have looted many more things, keeping them in my bags to see if it did it with them (it did not), and moving the ‘bad’ gear to other slots and bags. The affected gear is as follows:- (Tankadin, Lvl 20+ when spotted, 25 when investigations began, and 28 on making this report.)
  1) Sparkmetal Bracers (iLvl 30) gets replaced by Lightsoul Vambraces (iLvl 25)
  2) Dread Pirate Ring (iLvl 32+) gets replaced by Ring of the Fool (iLvl 22)
I have watched the bags while fighting and, obviously, it cannot and does not happen during the fight but seconds after, presumably when interested add-ons scan the bags for new gear to act upon. I witnessed the exact moment of change once at about 1.5 seconds after the loot dialog disappeared.

There may or may not be arguments for the equipping of either or both but I need to know that I’m gaining max XP when levelling and that my decisions regarding the non-Heirloom slots aren’t being compromised, which is why – when this started – I turned off the Gear Advisor altogether. I normally value and welcome it’s appearance on screen. To have gear auto-equip (without even the on-screen comparison to alert me) when it is turned off is very frustrating.   

I hope you can find and fix this, as I love your add-on. (While you’re at it though; one minor request, can you get the Gear Advisor to completely ignore potential Heirloom replacements unless the character has outlevelled it?)

Many thanks for your many hours of hard work and polish.

Update.
Having emptied my bags following the above report, I have acquired further loot and because the Clay Ring of the Aurora (iLvl 24) is BoE, I was given an alert by the WoW Client that my Dread Pirate Ring (now iLvl 33+) was trying to be replaced.

Until the problem is resolved I will, sadly, have to disable Dugi as (a) the most likely candidate and (b) I can’t live without ElvUI’s larger impact on my play experience.

Really hoping this can be fixed. Your add-on is the the simplest, most compact and most handy questing tool out there, with no equal. 

[Dugi]

from our tests and code check I don’t believe this is a dugi issue.

can you test with only dugi enabled and see if can happen.

Thank you for your prompt attention. As I have already stated, I narrowed the problem down to two addons. When I used either one on its own, the problem goes away. I then tried Dugi with EVERY one of my other add-ons, one by one, to see if there was a conflict. I deliberately left ElvUI until last, at which point the problem reappeared.

As also stated, I know that this means ElvUI could be at fault – and based on what you have said, I will post my problem (and your response) to the ElvUI support pages now, as well – but given that ElvUI does not have any option to move or remove anything from the bags (other than auto-vendor greys) but Dugi does with Dugi Smart Sets.

All that being said, I have just installed your recent update to Dugi (there may or may not be one for ElvUI but, as it is done through it’s own client, I haven’t checked yet,) re-tried it, and the problem – after five hours of gameplay – appears to have disappeared! Whether you did it knowingly or not, thank you and thank you also for always keeping Dugi updated all this time!

Hi!
I have experienced exactly the same issue during the past 1-2 years. Have tried everything you guys mentioned above and lastly after enabling Dugi it stopped auto equip gear. 
Really sorry to have to enable this addon since I’ve been using it forever. 
Also I’m not using ElvUi (the writer above me thought it could be a problem between those two).
I hope you can fix this somehow so I can start using Dugi again but felt that I had to comment too so the problem gets more attention.

Hi can you provide exact steps to replicate the issue
