WoW TBC Arena

RogueAddons & Macros — TBC Classic

The addons worth running as a Rogue, plus copy-paste focus, arena and burst macros for the class.

Rogue addons

Deadly Boss Mods (DBM)

CurseForge →

Raid boss timers, warnings and pull counters. Non-negotiable for raiding — it calls out every mechanic before it happens.

WeakAuras 2

CurseForge →

The most powerful custom-alert framework in WoW. Track buffs, procs, cooldowns and combo points with visual auras — import strings do the setup for you.

Merges every bag (and your bank) into one searchable window. A quality-of-life staple on every character.

Details! Damage Meter

CurseForge →

Detailed damage, healing and threat meters with deep breakdowns. Lighter and more informative than the classic Recount.

Bartender4

CurseForge →

Full action-bar replacement — reposition, resize and hide bars, and set up the layout you actually want for your rotation.

Cooldown-count text on every ability and item. Essential for tracking your rotation and defensive timings at a glance.

Arena enemy unit frames with trinket, DR and cast tracking. The single most important arena addon — you cannot play seriously without enemy frames.

ClassicCastbars

CurseForge →

Adds cast bars to enemy players and NPCs — critical for timing kicks, Counterspells and Spell Reflects.

Plus the universal essentials every character should run.

Rogue macros

Copy-paste and tweak the names to your spec. Focus macros assume you have a focus set (/focus).

Focus macros

Focus Blind

Blind your focus (usually the enemy healer) without swapping off your kill target.

#showtooltip Blind
/cast [target=focus] Blind

Focus Kick

Interrupt a focus-target cast while staying on your primary. Pair with a second Kick on your current target.

#showtooltip Kick
/cast [target=focus] Kick

Offensive

Shadowstep Cheap Shot

Gap-close with Shadowstep and open the stun in one button — the core Sub kill-setup macro.

#showtooltip Cheap Shot
/cast Shadowstep
/cast Cheap Shot

Burst (Blade Flurry + AR + trinkets)

Stack Blade Flurry, Adrenaline Rush and both trinkets for a Combat burst window.

#showtooltip Adrenaline Rush
/cast Blade Flurry
/cast Adrenaline Rush
/use 13
/use 14
