http://wow.curse.com/downloads/wow-addons/default.aspx has all your addons in class specific groups which may be of some assistance for you.
Pretty much essential addons for all my chars are :
1. DBM, bigwigs etc for boss alerts, raid timers etc
2. Skada/Recount DPS/Healing/ Threat meters
3. Omen, dedicated threat meter
3. Bartender (button bars)
4. Postal (post addon)
5. Altoholic (epic addon for managing alts)
There are other addons but not essential for a non raider.
1, 2 and 3 are pretty pointless for a non-raider.
Dominos is much better than Bartender imo.
You may want some sort of party frames rather than the default ones, somethin like Grid, Xperl, Vhudo etc
What are the must-have addons these days for a non-raider?

lol your gonna love cataclysm i can see if you think those are useless for 5mans![]()
Tbh you can play with zero addons and do just fine if you are a good player. I only play with 3 and have never had any problems in pve/pvp.

Addons can help you play better yes, if you install an addon you don't automatically become better at the game. What I was trying to say that you can get away with minimal addons and preform just as well as those with them. Obviously this applies to different parts of the game.This isn't quite correct though is it? Of course a 'good' player will play ok without add-ons but that is hardly the point.The point is that add-ons enable a player to play *better* ,whether a good player or not.
Add-ons streamline certain aspects of the game.Want an easier way to manage multiple auctions? Get an add-on.Want a prettier looking, multifunctional interface? Get an add-on.Want a quicker way to heal in dungeons? Get an add-on.
Implying that practice will allow you to play without add-ons as well as people who have them is missing the point a little.
You are responsible for me ordering pizza tonight.And eventually you will need Dominos, because Blizzards bars and keybinding method is awful.
