Messed around on an alt today and decided to run a few dungeons, nothing serious.
Decided to disable DBM. Now granted I’ve been running these dungeons over and over so I’m used to them. But even so, it’s amazing how much quicker you respond when you’ve got something telling you to move, big badaboom incoming in 3 seconds vs realizing it half way through the frontal cone attack that you’re dead center of.
How many add-ons do y’all use on a regular basis?
DBM
Details (keep track of everyone’s actions)
Postal for AH sales/returns
Raider io so I don’t have to tab out constantly.
Bartender4 because normal UI puts some buttons in funny places
DBM
Details!
Sexy Map
Dominos
Grid
Clique
Chatter
Titan Panel
Move Anything
Postal
Shadow Unit Frames
Immersive (questing only)
And I have a few that reverts everything back to vanilla for that nostalgia questing feel, though alot quests are missing directional details they used to have prior to the quest helper addition so it can be a bit daunting at times.
I may or may not have 151 addons installed according to the twitch updater. The last time I rebuilt them when they went south there was a few I needed before I could feel comfortable.
World Quest Tracker
Advanced Interface Options (let’s me reverse the sort)
Auctionator
BagSync
Bartender 4
Bazooka and related broker mods
DBM
Details!
GTFO
EK plates ( i prefer this to weak auras for tracking dots)
HHTD
Leatrix Plus
LiteBag
Moveanything
NugComboBar
Outfitter
Rarity
Saved Instances
SexyMap
Shadowed Unit Frames (although this has been spitting out errors since the patch and will have to be replaced)
Sunn viewport
TipTac
VuhDo
Maybe. The only WA I have is one that makes a huge annoying icon in the middle of my screen when Prayer of Mending is off cooldown. The only way to make it disappear is to hit the spell, so I have a pretty high uptime on PoM because that thing is so annoying. Without the WA, I don’t think I’d forget, but I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t be quite as diligent about hitting it immediately.
I use weakauras only for specific weakauras needed on raid bosses, mythic+ tools, and that annoying to track high tide that needs 40k mana spent.
I can still perform perfectly well without them.
The pop up box with the NPC describing the WQ. It interferes sometimes with peoples UI, coverering up things and such. Move Talking Head lets you move and/or resize it.
Strangely, my old reflexes are good enough to react to things without DBM.
I do keep it installed, though… new mechanics can be tricky.
Always:
Dominos (it’s like Bartender but better)
Mistra’s Diablo Orbs (I want a replacement for this one)
Castbar (I’m not fond of Dominos’ default one)
WIM (Default whisper system sucks. They need to update WIM though)
TRP3. (On top of being excellent for RP, it makes the tooltips nicer.)
DejaCharacterStats (Mainly for the movement speed… not sure why that was removed.)
