Essential Addons for Wrath: QuestHelper through YurrCombatLog
QuestHelper | |
 | QuestHelper is an easy to use mod that helps you plan and map your quests. QuestHelper integrates with the map to give you directions to major quest objectives and turn in locations. Many Wrath of the Lich King quests are already in the database. However Death Knight starting zone quests are not. |
RatingBuster | |
 | RatingBuster is a wonderful statistic addon that gives you extended information about combat statistics in your tooltips. For instance, if an item says "10 Stamina" RatingBuster would display "10 Stamina (+100 Health)." This information is invaluable while leveling and getting new items, as it can quickly help you determine if new items are actually upgrades to your old items. |
Recount | |
 | Recount records all the information that comes across the combat log and processes it into easy to read tables, charts, and other diagrams. It is highly useful in raid and group situations when trying to figure out what has killed people, or what people are doing right and wrong. The addon itself can be rather memory intensive at times, especially if many 25-man raid attempts are recorded with it. However with that said, it is a staple of the raiding community. |
ScrollingCombatText | |
 | Scrolling Combat Text, or SCT, gives users a display of numbers floating about their head every time some combat or healing action is performed. The addon is highly configurable, parts of it have even been integrated into default game itself. You can change the font, location, size, alpha blend, and numerous other options of the combat text. Highly recommended for those that like scrolling status text and indicators. |
Talented | |
 | Talented replaces your talent tree UI into a single frame. In this frame you can quickly import and export your talent build from places like WoWHead and the Blizzard talent site. You can fill out saved talent builds with a single click of a button. You can also compare, side by side, what other players talents are like. Highly recommended. |
Titan Panel | |
 | Titan Panel is an addon which displays a bar across the top and/or bottom of the screen, providing useful information to the user. The addon is highly configurable in the information it provides, and can be setup to each user's specifications. |
TotemTimers | |
 | TotemTimers displays timers for the Shaman's totems. This is very useful and necessary information for anyone that plays a Shaman seriously. The addon itself can be configured to respond to various keybinds and other actions, allowing for quite a bit of customization. |
TrinketMenu | |
 | TrinketMenu displays your equipped trinkets in a floating action bar, allowing for quick and easy use of them. This is especially important for anyone that swaps out trinkets frequently. It can cut down on complicated macros and other time consuming options. |
WoW Instant Messenger | |
 | WoW Instant Messenger, or WIM, takes all incoming tells and puts them into AOL Instant Messenger like windows inside the game. The windows can be tabbed, resized, have larger fonts, tinted, and a plethora of other configurations applied to them. WIM is a very good tool for anyone that communicates by tells a lot. It also provides logging services, and can output chat logs to various formats. |
X-Perl Unit Frames | |
 | X-Perl gives the user advanced unit frames for both the player and the player's target, the group, and the raid. Practically everything about the mod is configurable. You can change the text size, the frame size and alpha blend, and even what information is displayed in the frames. Many people swear by X-Perl and other unit frames. |
YurrCombatLog | |
 | YurrCombatLog is a very simple and very easy to use combat log replacement. It gives the user an easy to follow window with combat information in it, and is very similar to SimpleCombatLog. It does not use very much memory, and thus is quite efficient. |
