WoW - What Add Ons Should I Get?

zom247 · 2 Mar 2007 at 06:07

Just gone back after a year off and I'm hooked again! Kiss goodbye to my life (or is it wife) again! My character is a druid so what add ons should I get? Do I just need to get the cosmos one or are there others out now?

There are loads, but no one can tell you what you need, it's up to you.
Just go to the druid section on curse-gaming .com and try them yourself.

Thanks, I just used to use the cosmos one before, mainly for the map co-ords but I'll give some of these a try.

I recommend cartographer with some of the vendor/trainer/gathering addons. And Xloot. Just have a flick through and see what you like.

Get the ACE2 updater and then select your addons from a list of 450, click update and off you go. Run it once a week for updates and you're laughing. Cartographer and Fubar are both excellent addons (Fubar has tons of useful extras). The only other addon I use away from ACE2 (which seems to be very low memory usage) is Perl Unit Frames. Great frames addon - best I've tried.

I use mazzleUI or something like that..mazzlefizz/mazzify - i forget
it's a compilation of addons, far more than I need/use but it works and it's pretty much automatic and works well. So yeah, give that a go

I use Photek UI from curse-gaming. Theres a widescreen version available too, looks really good and has a lot of useful addons.

I've yet to find a UI that's as easy to use as the default one, I've tried all sorts, CTMod, Cosmos, Mazzle, Titan etc. All of them seem to have inherent problems.

I only needed to keep my most use spells/items on screen and didn't need 4 billion icons spread all over the shop and once I'd memorised where everything was with the default UI it was so much easier.
