The other major addon that you shouldn't be without, Deadly Boss Mods makes World of Warcraft's complex boss fights a little more approachable by providing real-time alerts to keep you one step ahead. Note that this item is bind on pickup, and that the Legendary item granted by the Purified Titan Essence does not affect your chance to earn a Legendary through other methods. I'm using the addon 'Legendary Progress Tracker' which tracks your progress towards the bad luck protection cap. I was at 99.2% when I opened the Purified Titan Essence.
The World of Warcraft community has created a variety of top-notch mods for small pet enthusiasts. For help installing, see WoW Interface's FAQ.
Pet Hunting
- PetTracker
This addon does several things. It displays the locations of all pets on the world map, tracks all pets you have still to catch in a given zone, displays all your enemies and allies abilities as you fight, and it even suggests which is the most appropriate pet for your current enemy. - Battle Pet BreedID
Battle Pet BreedID is a standalone addon that will display the Breed of any pet when in battle, in your Pet Journal, and in pet item tooltips (both in your bags and in the auction house). Perfect for anyone seeking a specific breed of battle pet. - Cancel Pet Fight
A handy addon for hunting rare pets. It tells you if there are no rares in the pet(s) you're battling and lets you hit 'Escape' to cancel the fight, rather than having to click the white flag and then click the confirmation dialog. It does not activate if there are rares. - NPCScan
This addon is perfect for collecting pets dropped by rare mobs, such as the baby raptors. It automatically alerts you whenever a rare mob is near. - Rarity
This addon tracks how many chances you've had to obtain various rare items throughout the game. It will tell you how likely you are to obtain the item, track how long you've been farming for it, etc. Provides an LDB feed, tooltips, and progress bar.
Pet Battles
- Rematch
Rematch is an addon to help create, store, recall and share battle pet teams. Its primary purpose is to store and recall battle pets (and their teammates) for various targets. Very useful. - Annene
Annene is an addon that rearranges the pet battle interface so that everything is now in one place (centered under the battle) rather than UI elements at both the top and bottom of your screen. - Daily Tamer Check
Tracks the completion of daily tamer quests. The main panel shows the tamers that give a sack of pet supplies as a reward. By mousing over the bottom-left and bottom-right buttons, you can see the other tamers divided into categories. - Battle Pet Daily Tamer
Puts a familiar paw on the world map marking where any daily Pet Tamers are that you have not battled against for that day. Initially, it only marks the tamers that reward pet supply satchels. But you may mark all tamers if you prefer. - Derangement's Pet Battle Cooldowns
Get help reacting to opposing abilties when they come out of cooldown. This addon shows the cooldowns and buff/debuff durations for ALL abilities in a pet battle — even benched pets. - Pet Theory
This addon improves upon the functionality of the Pet Journal (including zone filters) and provides useful information during Pet Battles and while wandering Azeroth. - Niggles: Pet Teams
This addon can create an unlimited number of Battle Pet Teams. Once created, the pet teams can be edited, loaded and exported. The list of pet teams is displayed as part of the standard Blizzard Pet Journal. - Pet Battle Tabs
Similar to the above, this addon provides another way to organize teams of pets. You can create up to 8 battle team loadouts and toggle between them by pushing the tabs on the Pet Journal. - WOWKéMON
Provides a complete rewrite of the Blizzard Battle Pet frames that is a clone of those from your favorite childhood game. Features movable unit frames, custom graphics, randomized intro scenes and more! - PetBattle Pokemon Mod
This addon will let the user automatically play music from various Pokemon games during a pet battle. Just go into your Interface and look under addon PetBattlePokemonMusic. The first section there will let you set your music tracks for wild and trainer battles. - Pet Battle Music
This AddOn simply plays custom music (like Pokemon music) during pet battles. To add tracks, follow the instructions in music.lua.
Pet Summoning
- Pets and Mounts
A highly customizable auto and random summoning addon for your pets and mounts. Summon a specific mount or pet in a specific zone, for example. 100+ options. Includes Data Broker support and Ace3 profiles. - GupPet
GupPet is an addon that gives an extension for mounting and calling critters. By a single click, it mounts a ground, swimming or flying mount depending on the players location. This mod features many bells and whistles, including collection tracking. - MiniPetQ
A broker addon that will allow you to create a list of favorite companions (minipets) and easily summon them. There are keybindings for dismissing, summoning random or summoning the 'favorite' pet. - NugMiniPet
This addon will ALWAYS keep a vanity pet by your side! It hooks companions to forward movement, auto-summoning a random pet whenever you walk or run (provided you don't have one summoned). Also includes a setting for favorites. - PetLeash
Another addon that always keeps a vanity pet by your side based on the list of pets you choose. Includes options for auto-disabling while stealthed, making it ideal for rogues and druids. - RandomCompanion
This mod allows you to choose a random pet or mount at the push of a button. Companions can be weighted to be chosen more or less often, or disabled altogether. When mounting, the mod will automatically choose the best type of mount based on your location.
Pet Collecting
- Collectinator
This addon provides methods for determining which vanity pets and mounts you're missing to help you in your ongoing collecting efforts. - Collect Me
This mod keeps track of your companions and mounts and can show you any that you are missing with additional information on where to get them. It also can summon companions randomly with a prioritiy list. - Livestock
This mod sorts your pets and mounts into land mounts, flying mounts, and vanity pets. Then, with the push of a button or use of unique slash commands, you can randomly summon any of the three.
Pet Behavior
- Chinchilla Critter Emote
Chincilla Critter Emote will have your vanity pets do fun and random things. When you have a pet out, every so often it will emote something fun. You can also have your pets become more interactive by having them emote custom actions by using /ce instead of /emote. Your pets will also respond to the in game emotes.

World of Warcraft’s core UI is functional, sure, but it often lacks a certain something special. Ask anyone who has been mocked for using it after their party found out and they will tell you exactly where it falters.
The default UI doesn’t provide you with enough information at a glance during a raid, it’s too large on the screen so that it takes up to much screen real-estate, and it can be really clunky with all the windows popping up everywhere which you aren’t able to better arrange.
Fortunately, expansive add-on support fills that gap, providing you with thousands of different options for how you want your game to look. Some add-ons are aimed at avid raiders, while others tackle those all-important professions. With so many options, it’s tough to know what add-ons are worth your time. We’ve dug deep and tracked down the best of the bunch for general, all-purpose use. Each add-on will make your World of Warcraft experience far more pleasant, whether you’re a raider, tradesman, or simply keen to level up fast.
For installing and tracking these add-ons, we recommend the Twitch desktop app for PC or MacOS. This handy app, which came to Twitch from the folks at Curse, tracks all your WoW add-ons and whether updates to them are available.
Best WoW addons
Here is a list of the best World of Warcraft addons:
ELVUI
One of the most popular all-in-one add-on collections, ElvUI earned its unique status as one of the best WoW addons. It provides a sleek revamp of the entire default WoW user interface, combining many of the most popular improvements to spell bar placement, inventory view, frames for your raid members or opponents, and basic utility like the ability to sell all “grey” items or perform repairs automatically. It automatically configures your display based on your role (tank, ranged or melee dps, heals), but provides easy options for changing configurations, moving windows, binding keys, and a host of other tweaks to display and function.
Text windows are helpfully divided between chat channels, and loot and other screen-scrolling information. At the bottom of those windows and your mini-map, tiny configurable status displays tell you everything from how many War Resources you have to what your durability is at to how many free bag spaces you have left (currently zero, of course, given the huge array of bag-hogging items from Battle for Azeroth’s patches.) They can also give one-click access to your bags, your guild, or your friends list.
ElvUI is updated ridiculously often. Unlike most WoW add-ons, this package can’t be added to your Curse/Twitch list; instead, you’ll need to update separately. There’s a paid client to do that automatically, but the ElvUI collection is available to install manually for free.
ALL THE THINGS
Want to track those achievements, rare kills, items, treasures, pets, transmogs, or anything else you’re missing – and display them by the zone or area you’re in? The All the Things WoW addon has come to your rescue. It identifies everything you’re missing and presents them to you in one simple interface, allowing you to feed your inner Warcraft completionist obsessive. Swv its about time zip.
The mod gives you a nice heads up for game content you might be missing, and also provides extra tooltip information about the things you’re collecting. A fanfare of chimes announces when you’ve collected or lost new appearances, pets, or items. All the Things is a must for Warcraft collectors, and a fun add-on for most players.
Separate databases keep All the Things from slowing down your gameplay, too.
Deadly Boss Mods
For five-man dungeons, Deadly Boss Mods is a great quality of life improvement, giving you warnings about important things – the boss is about to use a spell, you need to interrupt that mob’s cast to save your buddy – and generally acting as your gameplay guide.
For raids, DBM is essential, helping you to navigate tricky boss mechanics, giving you timers for when important events are coming in a fight, and generally giving you advance notice about all the things you need to do to keep your groupmates from yelling at you.
DBM is our choice because of the funny choices in its sound files; for example, a mechanic that makes you scatter from your teammates is typically accompanied by the Karazhan’s Big Bad Wolf yelling at you to “Run away, little girl, run away!” If you find that obnoxious, BigWigs Bossmods is another solid choice with less whimsy.
If you like DBM you can support its creator via Patreon (the link is on the page.
Weak Auras 2
There are several mods that allow you to set up simple ‘if this then that’ notifications for yourself. Is your major damage spell coming off cooldown? Is that crowd control spell about to expire? Mods like Weak Auras allow you to set up a blinking icon, text notification, sounds, or other noticeable cues.
For beginners, you might consider using TellMeWhen, which is perhaps the simplest, but still fully-featured version of these mods out there. For everyone else, the go-to is Weak Auras. Creating a new notification using a template is relatively easy, but the reason to use this over other mods is the huge array of pre-built notifications, trackers and simple quality-of-life doodads that have already been built by other people.
Want something that tells you in no uncertain terms what your “decrees” from Queen Azshara are in Eternal Palace? Something that tracks when the interrupt abilities of your party members are on cooldown in five man dungeons? Something that tells your party what Mythic Plus dungeon key you have so everyone can decide where you want to go? There are Weak Auras already made for all of those, plus collections for pretty much every class and specialization. Find a pile at wago.io after you’ve installed the mod.
Details!
There are plenty of damage and healing counters out there, but Details! is our favorite for its flexible displays, intuitive handling of things like pet damage, and lightweight installation. This mod allows you to track your damage or healing output (including absorbs like shields) based on the spells you cast and the abilities you use, how they hit your opponents, and how you compare against your group.
We especially like the ability to mouse over individual players to quickly glance what they’re casting and why they’re doing bigger numbers than you are. You can easily see segments like a single boss fight, or totals for an entire dungeon.
GTFO
This simple WoW addon does one thing: bark at you when you’re standing in something awful. A lifesaver for hectic boss fights, GTFO sounds a blaring alarm when you’re standing in fire and a warning tone when you’ve been hit by a single ability you could have avoided.
Simple, lightweight, and a shortcut to looking very smart in groups. This is largely an audio addon (though visual warnings are possible with integration with Weak Auras or Power Auras Classic.) But if you look at the screenshot above, where we’re standing in green gunk, you can picture the alarm merrily blaring away.
Auctioneer
There’s a lot of money to be made via the WoW auction house – if you know what you’re doing. Auctioneer goes some way to streamlining the process. This addon for WoW effectively appraises items, providing you with an intelligent price to sell a product for, making it easy to undercut others in the auction house.
It doesn’t stop there, though. The Auctioneer suite also tracks your bidding, postings, and mail, making it a breeze to list plenty of items at once. There’s also extensive support for enchanting, with figures available for disenchanting as well as selling enchantments. Used correctly, it’s quite the moneymaker, while saving you the effort of completing market analysis yourself.
Bluestack old version. If you really want to feed your inner goblin, TradeSkill Master is the state of the art for tracking and placing auctions, undercutting, combining raw materials from the auction house into items that sell for more, and the like. It comes with its own desktop app for maximum gold-making analysis, and requires separate download. It’ll identify good deals currently posted for sale and tell you what things should be worth. Using TSM correctly is a skill unto itself, so we don’t recommend it for beginners.
Bagnon
Keeping an eye on your inventory is a complex business once you own a few large bags, or you have multiple characters. Bagnon is a lifesaver in this context. Instead of having to view items bag by bag, it collates all your items together in one simple-to-view inventory screen.
Each item has a different colour assigned to it, depending on item quality, and there’s an intelligent search engine, too. This means you can see at a glance what’s going on inside your bags and that makes it easier for you to tidy them up.
Going one step further, the WoW addon also shows what all your characters possess, from how much gold they own to if certain items are duplicated across multiple characters. If you’re trying to move possessions from your main to an alt, it’s the perfect way to keep on top of everything.
Rarity
Finding a rare item drop is immensely satisfying, but often it can be quite frustrating, too. The Rarity addon for WoW acknowledges that you want to know what the odds are of getting a good drop, tracking how many times you’ve tried to obtain everything from mounts to toys and battle pets.
In each case, it tells you how likely you are to obtain the item, tracks how long you’ve been trying, and determines how lucky you’ve been so far. No longer do you have to question whether you’re actually making progress. You’ll have a proper idea of your chances through statistical analysis. Basically, it’ll keep you sane.
Due to a change in the way Warcraft handles looting, Rarity does poorly at tracking items that drop from mobs that come in groups or drop nothing at all. If they drop gold, you’ll get the correct count; if they don’t, that ‘attempt’ won’t register.) Still, it’s a useful tool.
HandyNotes
World of Warcraft’s map is fairly good at showing you where you need to go, but it’s not perfect. HandyNotes fills an important gap in the form of being able to add notes as you go along. A quick alt-right click on the world map lets you type in whatever you need to remember. More importantly, published collections of HandyNotes allow you to keep track of everything from the locations of treasure chests in Battle for Azeroth to the location (and whether you’ve killed them!) of rare creatures in Nazjatar or Mechagon.
As a result, HandyNotes is great for keeping track of locations such as secret entrances or even particularly scenic spots for light roleplaying. Prepackaged HandyNotes collections are their own WoW addons, but they all require HandyNotes to run. We highly recommend the Battle for Azeroth Treasures collection, and Nazjatar or Mechagon by TomCat’s Tours.
Angry World Quests
World of Warcraft: Legion brought with it World Quests – special temporary daily and weekly quests for maximum level characters. The problem was that World of Warcraft’s UI did a poor job of highlighting them and making them easy to track. Angry World Quests does the job for Blizzard, tracking quests in previous zones as well as those in Battle for Azeroth.
It lists quests directly on the world map, showing what the rewards will be and allowing easy filtering for quests that fulfil today’s emissary requirements and those that award gold, Azerite power, loot, or War Resources.
Wow Legendary Tracker Addons
Sadly, Angry World Quests hasn’t been updated since 2018, but it appears to still work fine for now. If you’re looking for an alternative, we’d recommend World Quests List or World Quest Tracker, both of which offer similar functionality.
