v Classic Guide to Warlock's Best Addons
Welcome to our Addons Guide for Warlock where you will find out what the best
addons are for your Warlock in Mists of Pandaria Classic.
Warlock Addons for Mists of Pandaria Classic
Warlock as a class has many abilities that can greatly benefit allies and themselves and addons are a way of simplifying how you get the necessary information for you to play your character optimally, both from a personal performance perspective, but also in helping people you play with get the most out of the game as well. Below is a list of addons that both increase the quality of your gameplay and the quality of life while playing the game.
Deadly Boss Mods
Deadly Boss Mods is a great addon that has pre-made timers for boss abilities in nearly every PvE encounter in the game. Deadly Boss Mods comes with plenty of customization options, so you can configure it however it works best for you.
in addition to DBM's timers, the maker of the addon also has DBM Voicepack that adds an audio cue to the notifications from Deadly Boss Mods.
WeakAuras
WeakAuras is an addon that allows you to track almost anything in-game, from boss abilities to personal buffs and debuffs. As a Warlock, there are many useful WeakAuras that can be found on Wago, which is a place where people publicly share their WeakAuras with a brief description and example of their purpose.
Details
Details provides a much more detailed combat log that can track damage done, threat meter, healing done, how many deaths in the raid, how many interrupts, dispels and much more. It is an extremely powerful tool to maximize your understanding of what is happening in each combat encounter. Also great to compare with others of your Class to see what they're doing different.
RestedXP Leveling Guide
RestedXP is the best leveling addon in the world and works for every version of World of Warcraft and will change the way you level forever. Made by the fastest speedrunners in the game, this extrememly customizable addon will provide you with the best and fastest, (or safest if you're playing Hardcore.) Equipped with a customizable arrow that tells you exactly where to go, while the guide tells you exactly what to do when you get there. It also comes with many quality of life settings to make your game better like auto pickup and turn in for your quests, auto skipping cinematics, blocking and customizing chat and much more.
Questie
Questie pairs very well with the above mentioned RestedXP and acts as an improved quest log and quest helper, showing clear indicators on your in-game map of where to go for quests and what your objectives for each quest are. Uniquely, it tracks and displays remaining enemies needed or required drops per enemy directly within the tooltip, streamlining collection tasks at a quick glance.
Leatrix Plus
Leatrix Plus allows you to automate many functions throughout the game like auto picking up and turning in quests, muting annoying sounds in the game that you otherwise can't mute, skipping NPC dialog, accepting a resurrection or summon, repairing your gear, selling vendor trash, and much more.
Leatrix Maps
Leatrix Maps replaces your old, stale map and gives you a new and updated map. You can show the whole map, without needing to discover it. It can also show dungeon icons and coordinates, scale and position the map, remove the border, prevent zoom from resetting, enhance the battlefield map and more. All settings are optional.
ItemRack
Item Rack provides a quick and easy way to switch between single pieces of gear or entire item sets. You can also queue gear, so it automatically equips the second combat ends. This addon has much more features than the Blizzards in game Equipment Manager.
AtlasLootClassic
AtlasLoot is a master database of item drops from Raids, Dungeons, reputation rewards, crafting professions, limited time events, and much more. It allows you to easily look up nearly every item in the game instead of having to tab out or use Blizzards buggy dungeon journal. This is especially useful to see what drops from a specific boss and plan out ahead of time what items you want, while also showing you how much Honor, Justice or Valor Points you need to purchase the item. This also shows the previous expansions too, for when you're leveling alts.
ElvUI
ElvUI is a complete UI overhaul and is extremely customizable. You can do anything you want with this addon and can also find really nice profiles to import at if you want to save yourself some time at Wago
Threat Plates
Threat Plates is an addon for customizing your nameplates. It offers a decent of customization and ways to tweak how your nameplates react and look. With very minimal amount of effort, you can get huge amounts of information about a target simply by what their nameplate is showing through this addon.
Plater
Plater is another addon for customizing your nameplates. I wanted to link two this one as well since this is the other popular nameplate addon that people use. If you're not using Plater, you're using Threatplates. It offers even more customization than Threat Plates and there are a ton of profiles that you can import from the same sites you get WeakAuras from like Wago
Warlock Macros
Macros make your life as a Warlock much easier in MoP Classic expansion. Allowing you to use simple scripts to combine spells, save global cooldowns and so much more. Macros are one of the secrets to maximizing your damage that the majority of players don't do. We highly recommend that you check out our Warlock Macros page, in order to improve your gameplay experience!
