Shaman 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.
Bagnon
CurseForge →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.
OmniCC
CurseForge →Cooldown-count text on every ability and item. Essential for tracking your rotation and defensive timings at a glance.
Gladius
CurseForge →Arena enemy unit frames with trinket, DR and cast tracking. The single most important arena addon — you cannot play seriously without enemy frames.
VuhDo
CurseForge →Click-cast healing frames with HoT tracking, debuff highlighting and range indicators. The go-to raid/arena healing addon.
Grid2
CurseForge →Compact, information-dense raid frames — a lighter alternative to VuhDo for healers who prefer minimalist layouts.
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.
