Basic Addon Training
So you think addons can replace the Beast within? Back in Ought 6 we didn't have addons. You Nooblocks need to be beaten into shape, or else someone will own you so fast your Succubus will get jealous. We're going to show you the difference between your Addons and your Interface, so you can stop muttering like a ghoul.
Addons: WitchHunt & SpellAlerter
These two addons reviewed today are rather similar, but also quite different. Using one of them should be enough, but they both have pros and cons, so you might even decide to use both depending on your preference.
Basically, WitchHunt and SpellAlerter will show you which spells are your enemies casting. You probably wonder what’s different [...]
Addons: Proximo 2
Proximo is an arena unit frame which will display your enemies health and mana bars, allow you to target them, and a number of additional goodies. If you missed my review of Proximo, I suggest you do it now.
It’s recently been updated to include some new features: race icons, buff & debuff tracking (I still [...]
Addons: Reslack
##NOLIGHTBOX##I thought we might take a break from all the useful and serious addons, so this time I’ll show you something new.
You know all those confirmation boxes for summons, ready checks and resurrects? Sooner or later it becomes annoying, and here’s a way to bypass it.
Reslack will automatically accept those summons and resurrects so you [...]
Addons: Afflicted
##NOLIGHTBOX##Afflicted is a PvP timer mod, which shows you enemy silences, interrupts and buffs in a convenient way. Although the name of this mod might suggest it’s for warlocks, rest assured it’s not.
You can open the configuration window (image below) by typing /afflicted ui, and change where and how you want it to be displayed.
Afflicted [...]
Addons: Proximo
Proximo is an enemy unit frame specifically designed for arenas. It will show your enemies when you or your other team members mouseover them, so you can see who you’re fighting against as soon as the match starts.
The frame will show only when you enter an arena so you don’t have to worry about it [...]
Addons: Advanced Tradeskill Window
Advanced Trade Skill Window (ATSW) is a replacement for Blizzard’s tradeskill window. It provides you with a much better overview of craftable items, and supports a number of useful features.
Although search is implemented in the standard interface now, ATSW has a much more advanced search functionality - you can filter items by level requirement, quality [...]
Addon Profiler: Posessions
Posessions will keep track of your items and money on all your alts, including worn items, items in your inventory, items in your bank and even items in your mailbox (that you’ve seen).
So, if you want to see if you have any silk cloth anywhere… you can just type ‘/poss silk cloth‘, and Possessions will [...]
Addons: DoubleWide & LightHeaded
This will save you some money if you plan on buying one of those World of Warcraft leveling guides.
These addons are so simple, yet so brilliant and useful - after a day of questing, you won’t look back ever again.
LightHeaded
When you click on a quest name in your quest log, LightHeaded will show you the [...]
Addon Profiler: Auctioneer
Auctioneer is an addon that allows you to view information about an item that may be useful in helping you determine what it’s worth.
Straight out of the box, Auctioneer knows much about many items in the game, and will tell you many additional things about the item in the tooltip:
item cost when buying/selling to vendor
how [...]
