I'm really new to WoW and addons, so those are the ones that sounded good to me. Plus, I love SpartanUI. It's so much better than the default UI. Anyways, what would be some good addons to use? I mainly play hunter, druid, warlock, mage and from time to time, a priest. I need some addons that will help in solo, PvP, PvE, dungeons/raids, and everything else. Any help will be appreciated. =] Thank you.

Answer 1

Altaholic



This is the single most glorious addon i've stumbled upon. For someone like me who has multiple lvl 80-85s and maxes out many tradeskills its just great.



Basically this addon keeps tracks of all the characters you have on your account. keeps tracks of how much gold they have, time played, what gear they are wearing, whats in their bank, what they have on auction, what they have in their bags, what professions they have and open-able window to see what they can make/do in that tradeskill, keeps track of calendar events, tradeskill cooldowns with warning when you're not on that character. And SO much more. It also will give you a tooltip when you scroll over something like

[Elementium Ore]

Character 1 - 20 (Bags: 20)

Character 2 - 50 (Bags: 10 Auction: 20 Bank: 20)

Guild Name - 500 (Guild Bank: 500)

Total - 570



Really nice addon. Lightweight so wont bog down your wow either.

Answer 2

relies upon on what you % to do. in case you have a variety of of low point characters i might advise quest helper. Its in certainty like a GPS equipment that helps you come across quest objectives and could help you lots. Coordinates, injury meters, and healbot (for therapeutic raids late activity) would be fairly helpful down the line as properly. I actual have a application with basically about all addosn called "Wowmatrix which makes downloading and setting up addons quite undemanding and it supplies descriptions of each. wish this helps!

I love OneBag and OneBank it makes one window out of all of your bags so you don't have to hunt thru them going where did I put it. Also Crap Away! is nice because it sells all the grey stuff automatically when you hit a merchant. Xperl is another UI that is very nice

Answer 4
