The Best Addons to World of Warcraft Classic

The premiere of World of Warcraft Classic was a success, as evidenced by the queues to servers. However, you will soon find out that Classic isn't perfect. These 10 mandatory addons will help you enter the brutal world of Blizzard from 15 years ago.

2. Deadly Boss Mods

Deadly Boss Mods is one of the main addos for World of Warcraft, which is also perfect for the Classic. It's responsible for providing information about opponents in dungeons and raids. Thanks to special warnings, we know in advance what kind of attack the enemy or boss will perform, how much cooldown they have, and when we can expect other kinds of surprises.

In practice, Deadly Boss Mods allows us to pick any enemy without reading their detailed descriptions. The addon will warn you about pretty much everything that awaits in battle. The modification is almost necessary if you want to Raid.

Deadly Boss Mods configuration

The Deadly Boss Mods (DBM) is an addon that has extensive customization options – you can access the appropriate panel by writing the command "/dbm" during the game. For example, in Deadly Boss Mods, sound alerts are disabled by default. Personally, I do not use them, but some people find them much more convenient than the pop-up icons (which sometimes get lost in the thick of events on the screen). Here, you can also choose whether the Deadly Boss Mods will be active for all dungeons and raids, what size of notification you want to see, and where they should appear. You can also choose the colors, which is useful for color blindness, or just customization.

Alternatives to Deadly Boss Mods

Deadly Boss Mods doesn't suit everyone, so I encourage you to check out BigWigs. It works on an identical principle, although puts more emphasis on sound notifications.

3. Better Vendor Price

A simple addon that makes evaluation of items and loot from sellers a bit easier. In World of Warcraft Classic we don't know how much an item is worth. After installing Better Vendor Price, we don't have to get to a vendor to find out if it was worth carrying the entire pack of wolf furs with us. The addon will give us the value of one piece and the whole package.

On top of that, if we visit an auction earlier, we will learn how much the given item will cost if purchased from other players, as well as its average price. This way, we can more easily manage our inventory. It is worth remembering room for items in backpacks in World of Warcraft Classic is very limited.

Better Vendor Price configuration

Because of its simplicity, Better Vendor Price offers no options for customization.

Alternatives

None. This addon is the best in its class, although if you are going use the Auctionator, this addon will be redundant.
