Top Addons you Must Have for WoW

The World of Warcraft has a variety of external add-ons available to add to your game created by fans and enthusiasts for a variety of different reasons. These add-ons are perfectly legal extras you can enjoy depending on how you want to play your World of Warcraft game. Add-ons can do a large selection of different things from creating small mini games within the World of Warcraft to storing complex strings of data and calculations of things you do within the game.

These are the top three add-ons in WoW you simply cannot live without!

1. Auctioneer

Auctioneer has been around for a very long time and millions of WoW players use this add-on constantly. Auctioneer has many different unique benefits to its use to suit a variety of different needs based on item data and auction data. Auctioneer can do a multitude of different things including:

Show you a breakdown of what materials an item disenchants/mills into and what percentage chance each material can be obtained from that item.
Show you an estimated market value that is relevant to your specific realm for each item you encounter in game based on previous auction house data.
Provides an estimate sale price on the auction house for each item you encounter in game or advises you to vendor items that are not auction worthy.
Provides an estimated percentage value of each item you encounter on the auction house so you can make a balanced decision on whether or not to purchase an item at the current price.
Organises the auction data so that you can easily see the cheapest items regardless of how they are stacked together.
Provides a handy little checkbox in your auction house window so that you can quickly see the individual value of items placed in stacks without reaching for your calculator.

Auctioneer also provides many other different benefits to suit the average game player and the gold enthusiast alike. Auctioneer can help you to make balanced decisions and find out more about the items you encounter in game to help you make money and not lose it.

2. Atlas Loot

Atlas loot is an add-on that appears as a simple little box icon on your mini map. All you need to do is click that icon to bring up a window that lists all items currently available in game, how to get them and how much they cost. It has an easy to use layout where you can find items through a simple search box if you know the name of the item or you can search by category such as all Emblem of Triumph items available or all Enchants for Foot Armour in the game. Atlas loot can help you to prepare and plan your gearing up as well as tell you further information on items made with professions even if you don’t have a profession worker’s link to hand at the time. Whether you are looking for buff food, enchanting materials, PVP gear, emblems or raid loot Atlas Loot can tell you all about it.

3. Bartender 4

Whether you need more button space to add extra abilities or even less buttons to make more room on your screen Bartender 4 can help you. Bartender 4 is an add-on that handles your action bars in game allowing you to resize them, move them around, apply textures, change their direction, add or remove button spaces and more. If you don’t like the way your action bars look, Bartender 4 can help you create the perfect user interface with complete action bar flexibility. It even includes your bag bar, the game options menu, your key ring, experience bars, reputation bars, stance bars, pet bars and more. It also has some unique extras such as only showing a bar when you hover over it so when you aren’t using that bar you can concentrate on what you are doing at the time.

Bartender 4 can help you reorganise your action buttons, tidy up your interface and apply interesting textures or designs to your buttons. You can sort out your poisons and give them their own separate unique action bar, create a portals and teleports menu that fades out when you are not using it, hide your experience bar to make more room, add extra rows of action bars to allow more abilities on your screen and apply key bindings in a quick and easy way without trawling through the original WoW key interface menu.

The greatest addition to World of Warcraft is not really an addon. It is a good leveling and strategy guide. It is only with this type of expert advice can you learn to level characters quickly, and learn to master your character. The top leveling guides avaialble are Joana's Guide if you are a Horde player, and Zygor's Guide if you play the alliance. And for those wanting to earn gold fast and master professions, Dugi's Gold and Professions Guide is where its at.
