I used to play without add-ons
Jul. 28th, 2017 05:36 pmThen last expac I installed Deadly Boss Mods because raiding is a pita without it.
Now, somehow, in an expansion where I've raided TWICE, I have wound up installing an add-on to modify the mob nameplates from Blizzard's current "late 80s unadorned healthbar" aesthetic back to the actually informative nameplates WoW used to have. I still have DBM, of course. I have an add-on that's supposed to make tab targeting work (but tab targeting is still really fucking broken). I, gods help me, have done what I thought I would never do and installed a custom UI add-on (I will never be able to go back to the default UI).
And since I started maining my tank, I have installed an add-on to make my stagger % easily visible at a glance, and WeakAuras so I can track the duration of my Ironskin Brew, which Blizzard hides up in the corner with the other buffs.
Did I mention I'm NOT EVEN FUCKING RAIDING? *facepalm*
(I mean, yes, I do hope to start tagging along in raids with![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
queenoftheskies's guild, but even if I do that regularly, it won't be as a tank. I don't know what I'm doing.)
Oh, and on my hunter I have an add-on to shriek an alarm at me when my pet's health gets too low, though 9 times out of 10 the correct answer to that is "fuck Mend Pet, I'mma let it die and use Heart of the Phoenix to re-summon it at full health."
