How to Download Addons:
We recommend finding these addons for WoW through the World of Warcraft addon feature that is built into the the Twitch Desktop Application.
Step 1:
Download the Twitch App by clicking here: Twitch
Step 2:
Once you open the application, you should be able to click on "Mods" in the upper left. Then click on the game icon for World of Warcraft
Step 3:
In this new window, you should be able to click on the words "Get More Addons" on the left hand side.
Step 4:
Your screen should have two search bars. Ignore the search bar on the top, which is located in the purple banner. Instead, look for the search bar on the right-hand side. If you use this search bar, you can search for the very helpful addons that we recommend using while playing the game. These can be found below

Helpful Addons:
Often times, it can be tricky to find the addon that you are looking for, as some will have similar names. We have made sure to type out the name exactly as it appears in the twitch addon. You will be sure to get the right one by following this guide. I would recommend picking and choosing. Perhaps, add one addon at a time, and try it out. If you don't like it, Twitch will always let you delete the addon. The following addons are simple to use, they hardly take anything to run, and they required little to no setup.
- Pawn: This addon will automatically tell you if the item is an upgrade. Sometimes, items of the same item level will have different stats. It is very important to focus on the right stat, and this addon is the perfect starting point for that.
- Skada Damage Meter: This will chart your damage and healing per second (as well as other useful information about fight encounters).
- Deadly Boss Mods (DBM): This addon will give you information about raid and dungeon boss encounters during the fight.
- GTFO: This addon will tell you to get out of bad stuff you might be standing in. (A clear noise will sound indicating that you need to move).
- Personal Loot Helper: Simplifies trading of personal loot by notifying you when a drop is not an upgrade for the looter. Therefore, you will always know if someone else looted an item that is an upgrade for you, which is also able to be traded to you or someone else in a group.
- AtlasLoot Enhanced: This will give you information about gear that bosses drop.
- SimpleTarget: This will reset the TAB targetting functionality back to what it was before the buggy redesign in Legion. Better tabs = better fights.
- Can I Mog It?: This will add tooltips to the item, which will let you know if you have learned a transmog appearance.
- TransmogTokens: Adds tooltips to tier tokens. This will help you know if you have collected the appearance already, which is embedded within the token.
- Bagnon: This will help you organize your bags. You will have one large bag. (I usually disable guild bank and void storage)
- Auctionator: If you are struggling with the AH, this addon will automatically price your goods at a decent and appropriate selling price, which is based on the current market value of the item.
- NPCScan: This will scan the nearby area for all elite/ rare bosses, which drop better than average loot.
- Scrap (Junk Seller): This will sell all of the grey items for gold automatically. Very helpful.
- AutoLootPlus: This will actually cause you to loot much faster if autoloot is turned on. The only downside is that it is so fast, you might not notice that you just looted a very rare item.
- CQuestCounter: Adds a counter for how many quests are in your log. (This used to be built into the game, but blizzard removed it for some mysterious reason.)
- Garrison Mission Manager: Assists you when selecting the best team for the Class Hall table, and the WoD's Garrison/ Shipyard to support the follower management tasks.
- HandyNotes: This addon will make it possible for you to modify your map with markers. This will help you complete specific objectives for this game.
- HandyNotes_LegionRares&Treasures: This addon will put a marker on your map that shows where important hidden items and rare bosses reside within the world.
- Bartender4: This is the only addon, which takes a bit of setup. I have found that it is very useful in creating blocks of extra action bars for spells and abilities. I would recommend locking the spellbar, however. It now must be done through the addon's setup feature (if you have this downloaded).
Battle Pets
|
A Must-get Addon for Battlepet Enthusiasts:
- Pet Tracker: This is an addon, that I would highly recommend using if you are interested in Battle Pets. It will do the following: track pets for you in the world, display the breed of pets in the Pet Journal, while in a pet battle, and on tooltips; display all battle information at a glance; and warn you when wild pets that you might want appear in combat;
For all battlepet collectors, the Terrible Turnip will become your best friend. Level it to 25 as soon as possible, and you will have a battlepet catching powerhouse. His most notable ability is Weakening Blow. Take note of how the attack will never accidentally kill the battlepet that you are attempting to catch.
