With our new AddOn page we've introduced a cool new feature called "Recommended AddOns." While we've covered the basics, we'd also like to hear your thoughts on the AddOns a new player shouldn't live without.

Discuss any AddOn you would recommend to a player, or your favorite AddOns, in this thread. Who knows, maybe you'll help introduce someone unfamiliar with AddOns to something great!

For anyone who hasn't seen it yet, here are the recommended categories we've tried to provide insight on:

With these pages, we explain why we think it would be beneficial for a player to use those specific AddOns. Now tell us why you would recommend an AddOn to a player, and what it is!

There are too many great addons to count. Most of the ones I would recommend are already listed inculding; Questhelper, Bongos, BigWiggs, Omen etc.

I would like to see a sections for recommended guild addons such as GuildMap, Group Calendar etc. that are beneficial for the management and guild as a whole.

I would also give my thumbs up for FuBar (plus many of its modules) its a nice alternative to Titan panel with allows a whole bunch of information found through the various Blizzard windows to be summarized in bars along the top and/or bottom of the game frame.

Another recommendation is Quartz - a casting bar addon tonnes of funcationality inculding mirror bars, target casting bars, focus casting bars and two really cool features;
1. It shows server lag allowing you to line up your next spell to cast before you the animation of the previous spell completes.
2. Combines tradeskill cast time together to show how long all crafted items will take (basically the total time to create those 100 linen bandages).

So there is alot more... I am an addon addict, but I'll leave it at those for now!

I would say that Questhelper Is a must have addon for questing, KLH threatmeter is a must have for raiding, Group calendar is a must have for guilds, and Grimoire Keeper is a must have for warlocks. the rest of the ones I use are more preference.

PS. I guess Auctioneer Advanced would count as a must have for auction players

  • Grid: Very nice raid frame addon
  • Quartz: Offers many useful features to the casting bar

Both addons are very stable and well maintained

  • Omen: I prefer this over KLH as threat-meter as there is better maintenance, but the 2.4 versions are not really what I call stable and well functioning - Would still recommend it though.

rogues need to have a thing called find lockboxes so we can build up lockpicking

I love quest helper, it saves so much time on finding quest objectives and remembering turn-ins.

Does anyone recommend any addons for healers?

pad8: That's a great idea! I'll see about working out the details on getting a "Recommended Guild AddOns" tab added. :)
