Helpful Add-Ons

[Azzie]

List the ones you cant live without, boxing or otherwise. I know most of us box and often will play mains (solo). Give us a list of what add-ons you love and why.

I'll start with the basics I use:
Altoholic - keeps track of what I have on all my alts, across faction/realm
Addon Control Panel - allows me to shut off or start add-ons without having to go back to the character screen.
Ackis Recipe List - lists any missing recipes for my professions.
AtlasLoot Enchanced - loot guide
FishingBuddy - helps track fishing %'s, drops and skills.
QuestHelper - detailed quest info
Cartographer - map mods
X-Perl Unit Frames - modified unit frames
Recount - damage meters
Auctioneer - great auction tool.
Omen Threat MeterThreat meter
FuBar 3.6
Decursive - dispelling goodness
PallyPower - tracking group wide pally buffs
Bartender - button mod
Gatherer - gathering mod for mining, herbs, fishing and treasure
DeadlyBossMods (DBM) - Boss Mod for encounters, 5mans, raids and outdoor.

Haha you didn't even follow your own directions
My list :
Atlas Loot : Well it's always handy to jerk off on the stuff you can get on the next boss.
Bagnon : Can't live without an addon that merge my bags together
BigWigs : I could live without it, but life is just so much easier with it
PitBull Unit Frames V3.0 : Best unit frames ever imo.
Prat : So great to format your chat frame the way you want.
Recount : Dick contest ftw !
Scrolling Combat Text : Blizzard's one is juste so ****ty.
Shock And Awe : Any decent enhancement shaman should have this, even if it's only for the export feature to use enhsim to calculate your EP values depending on your stuff

SmartBuff - it's pally power for every class
ItemRack - I used the first version and still love it. I have 4 dual spec toons and this makes life easier.
Proculas - A must have for tracking eclipse procs on the boomkin I have
Xperl - sadly. I hate depending on frame mods because they break but Xperl is amazing for cleaning up a UI
AutoBar - for drinking/eating, pots, etcs. it makes life bearable

jamba
questhelper - when im on my druids i only use jamba

i just like to keep my games so much addon free as possible

Forgot about Mr.Plow addon too - it organises all of your bag space which can be a god send when multiboxing as it can be a few levels worth of crap to sift through

And to prevent too much crap from entering your bags - get X-Loot and you'll never pick up a Grey again!

Why would one never want to pick up grey anymore? THey sell for a lot of gold. Today when I reroll, i buy 4 16 slots bags and I never run out of space. And if I do, I delete stuff that are worthless like food or drinks, but never grey items :/

I hate greys with a passion - grey's are worth copper or silver 99% of the time, I'd rather fill my (homemade 20 slot) bags with greens & blues

Sure, I'd like that too
But I just can't fill 5 bags of greens en blues everytime I go out of town
But I just play 1 char at a time, maybe while multiboxing instances you get much more greens.
