Read More for category timestamps! Note: this video was finished shortly before the Group Finder hotfixes affecting the World Quest Tracker's group-finding functionality. I'm hoping that comes back- but even without it, I'll still be using it to quickly see world quest rewards on the map. UI Addons: 00:17 PVE Addons: 5:19 Auction Addons: 11:16 Pet Battle Addons: 13:02 Quality of Life Addons: 15:10 Collection Addons: 19:08 PvP Addons: 23:23 Thanks for watching- hope this helps!
You mentioned TidyPlates, and just for people who still use it, it hasn't been developer updated since before 7.3. There are a couple patches available on Curse's website in the comments of the addon, but they aren't official. After seeing this video I'm gonna switch to kui, they look great.
I don't think you need to apologie for not accepting whispers. People have the right to choose how they communicate, and who they communicate with. Love your channel, thanks for the update on your addons.
I don't comment here that often, but I have to say you're scaring me. This is like the third time you've lread my mind about what video I'd like to watch from you and you deliver a couple days later.
I am so glad I found you. I just returned to wow from a long hiatus and am pretty much re-learning everything. Thank you for sharing, I appreciate you! :)
I have heard of and use most of these addons....however I have not heard of the transmog ones and omg after this video i downloaded them and now I dont think I can live without them. Thanks hazel. Your videos are always great but you have now made my transmog gathering so much better lol
This video is EXTREMELY HELPFUL! Thank you..... thank god for pausing. I had to pause in between sentences because the information was coming out so fast.
I have been looking for a gaming pad for years. They stopped carrying them at my local best buy and I had no idea what they called until I watched your vid. Thanks to you I finally have ordered one!
Another good thing about altoholic is that when you want to know how many of something another character has in its bag or bank you dont have to open its interface, you can mouse over, say, bloods of sargeras and the tooltip will tell you how many of them your alts have. Also works with currency in case you want to know how many, say, timewarped badges, your alts have you can just go to the currency window.
vampcorpse Do you know how to get the tooltip to show cross server alts again? I play on three servers, two of which are connected to each other, and I haven’t been able to re-enable that since whatever hangs it was that hid it.
I dont I only play in one real, however, i read somewhere that if you send BoA items cross realm it starts tracking the items since it is BoAs what the addon uses to activate cross realming, havnt tried it so feel free to experiment
lilagtook it usually does not track cross server at a glance unless you load that info in the add on interface. Since servers are kept separate your 10 stacks of prolong power pots on server X wouldnt help you on server Z. So to keep the clutter down it does not display that. Plus TSM already tracks all this items across your account anyway.
This is also a nice feature in Ark inventory if your looking for a new inventory add on. As long as you’ve logged the character recently you can see all your alts bags and banks without switching chars.
I used to speak out against TSM saying "I refuse to get a degree in programming just to set up an addon". With the help of your super easy to follow and understand TSM series, I got it set it up in about 10 mins. My life has dramatically improved since then. Not only do I make boss coin on all my wares, but I'm in and out of the AH within a minute as well. Never again will I have to research for 30 mins to determine the best competitive price for my stuff...as well as easy buttons for milling / disenchant?!? Don't know how I got along without it. Thank you Hazel
thank you Hazel ! just downloaded 3 add-ons more! never commented so wanted to tell you, you have a great channel. I Like it cause you're not saying bs, you're going straight to the point and I can feel you're smart (that's weird to say that, but when you say something I can understand your reasoning behind and everything makes sense from that point of view). I kinda enjoy watching your livestream that you reupload and so on ! keep up the good work.
OMG thank you for showing me MaxCam!!! I too like to play really zoomed out. I used to use macros to increase my camera distance but they haven't worked for a while. I will be downloading MaxCam as soon as I get home tonight!!
Thank you very much for making this :) I recently got back into WoW for BfA and my friends were all using cool addons and I had no idea what they were and felt like a noob for asking, so this video was perfect for me!
Thanks for putting so much time into this! I got inspired to try a few new things. I hope the WQ addons start working a few months down the line, it's frustrating and feels timewasting to have to manually search for each quest or take longer doing it yourself, especially when you have more than a handful of alts :)
This video actually convinced me to make the switch from the heavy Elvui to something more minimalist and I feel a lot less stressed out logging into WoW now! It wasn't nearly as hard to set up as I thought it would be and I have SO MUCH SCREEN SPACE NOW. Thank you so much for making this video! It really seems like it took a ton of work!
I went to ElvUI cos of the opposite reason. it freed up a lot of memory and screen space (fade UI when out of combat for example), while being so easy to set up and maneuver everything where i want it to be. paired with shadow and light addon for some finer tweaking. Easier to keep 1 UI addon up-to-date, than a suite too.
Krystina Blackwell elvui has so much customization and many of these add on already built into it. If it felt cluttered it's probably because you did not take the time to tweek it. 70% of the addons for utility and ui are part of the elvui package, and much more. Auto vendor, bag management, nameplates, cast bars with latancy and dot breakpoints, interrupt chat call outs. And a bigbonus, you can import the settings from someone else who has it all set up already if that is your thing. Instead of having to do one by one.
Altoholic can also help you keep track of which recipes your alts have already learned in whatever professions they have, both major and minor. This way you know where you can safely sell a technique/recipe. Although I will warn you that this one add on by itself significantly slows down my loading screen times. I have a moderately good gaming rig and a great internet connection, your mileage may vary.
I recommend "Order Hall Commander" (one word) for the Mission table. I used it exclusively in Legion and I couldn't imagine using any new expansion's Mission Table without it. I LOVE that you fell in love with Altoholic at the end. It's one of my favorite addons and was surprised you didn't know about it, what with your many alts! :D I mostly use it to look to see how many tokens/currency/items I have and on what toons, it helps keep you from logging onto everything to check their bags. It places a number in your tooltip that shows how many on what toon, that way you don't have to use the "Search containers" bar for things you have on your current toon!
As I begin my final preparation for the expansion, this video has been a godsend because my addons are an old hot mess!! Thank you so much :) Lots of warm wishes from Oz
Loved your enthusiasm while explaining your mods. Would like you to suggest a few mods to try Bagnon - will show all your bags as if it was a giant one, with lots of options to configure. BagBrother - will allow you to see your bags and bank itens anywhere, including the bags and banks of your alts. BankItems - same as BagBrother (I disabled it due to some LUA errors) WIM (WoW Instant Messenger) - will show the whispers as individual windows that you can close without anytime and reopen later to read and respond the messages Postal - excellent for organizing your mailbox with option to open all messages (useful when receiving dozens of auction house messages) and search for your alts names, guild members etc when you're sending a message A Peon's Burden - Plays the peon "work complete" or "work work" sound each time you complete all the objectives for a quest
I play at least one of every class at least till cap usually geared enough for current content and altoholic is a lifesaver when your looking for matts across 10+ characters
Thank you so much for this! It has already helped me out so much in game. I have used Bartender for years now and love it! But I have installed a lot of the addons you have recommended. I look forward to playing around with them a little bit more!
Its quite cute how u try to help us to understand u when u think u're speaking too fast. Cause u speak wildly fast, that is. I feel like completing an achievement when I completely understand you, considering that english is not my first language. But u're actually quite clear 90% of the time so, keep the good work. \o\
I love how excited you get to dig into Altoholic. I've been using it for years, mostly to decide what I want to work on next. I probably know how to use about 1/3rd of it. There's so much going on in there!
I just got the auction one. Had no idea that was a thing and the big auction one was too big for me. Holy goats my life just got a whole lot easier with this thing thank you so much!
Hazel - instead of AutoVendor, take a look at "Scrap (Junk Seller)" - does basically the same thing, but has a ui button you can drag new autosell items to (So instead of typing the command and click linking, you would have just dragged the item to the button while at a vendor,) an ingame UI for selecting things like low-level items, etc., and you can click the UI button to trigger another sell if you were over the 12 item limit.
I've been using Altoholic for YEARS and it's really helped with doing things like DMF tickets, crafting items, and who has what for tokens. It works really well when you've got gathering alts and crafting alts, too.
Really comprehensive list, some no-brainers for sure but theyre could be the 1% who dont have some of them. I definitely have a larger-than-large list thanks to a few on here. Thanks :)
Great list. Even some I don't have. I randomly found a great addon. DialogKey - it lets you use keystrokes instead of clicking. If there are several options in a dialog window, they are assigned 1,2,3... For all other confirmations you can just use space bar. Is a great time saver. Especially for quests where you need to talk to 8 druids to save them instead of just clicking. Also good for the annoying "are you sure?" If you want to skip quest texts, it is an absolute must have.
I love that pretty much all of your UI addons are in ELVUI, which is why I made the switch. Just to note, pawn is set to default values from Mr. Robot. You should never take their default upgrade numbers at face value, you should *ALWAYS* get your values from an outside source. And if you're going to use PAWN, you should consider using SimC addon otherwise you're not going to be effectively using pawn.
Thank you. Been playing about 12 years and there were alot of the addons i didn't know existed and others i haven't or didn't use properly. Appreciate your video's since I found them Lol i guess i just run around lost and didn't know why i sucked on my main which is a SP, now i do lol. Waiting for your next video.
O. M. G. I've been using Bartender4 for years ... and never flipping noticed there was an option for keybinding in it! O_O Sheesh. Thanks for this, gonna check it out soon and see how it works with my G13 and Red Dragon gaming mouse, can't wait!
I still dont know how you can prefer pet journal enhanced search function over rematches. But I mean you do say your use to it so that makes sense. Rematch is so much easier to use and quicker, I'd highly recommend it to new players over pet journal enhanced.
Huzzah! This was thoroughly enjoyable! Thank you for sharing, you showed me a few I’m going to try can I mog it , forexample! Altoholic is wonderful, I feel lost when I dont have it, it makes professions across alts sooooo easy! Thank goodness you talk at a speed that keeps me engaged and I have to compliment your diction! Have a great day! 💕👍🏼
We use a similar setup, you're really going to like Atoholic. A couple of things though, first Altoholic can get pretty bloated when you have a lot of alts (go figure) and adds quite a bit of load time as a result. That's the reason I ended up dropping it. It IS super helpful when juggling a ton of alts and trying to figure out "who's got that thing I need to finish this craft this other thing and finish this quest?" but it comes at a cost. Additionally, several of the features you're using are covered in Leatrix Plus. I initially got this when it was for fixing Latency issues years ago, and to maximize view distance automatically. But there's a lot of other things like adding cordinates, auto repair, auto vendor trash, as well as some other good quality of life stuff like auto accept resurection/summons. And auto group/invite from friends list or keyword. In other words, it's worth a look.
I like the add-ons OPIE and Immersion! OPIE allows you to create rings of skills similar to how you can select emotes and voice lines in Overwatch. Basically I use it to quickly access my mounts on my characters or for example on my Mage to quickly open up a ring that shows me all my portals or teleport so I can quickly select one. Immersion just basically turns every single quest window into one of the floating head bubbles that appear whenever you have special dialogue for WQs or stories. It also cuts down the wall of text into smaller 2 or 3 sentence paragraphs that you can click through with space bar so you can skim a quest text even easier!
Thank you so much!! So detailed and simple to understand. I'm going to download some addons right now. And love your reaction at the end Iol discovering the addon
I was watching the video of you getting invincible as I was running icc and I swear as soon as you started freaking out over getting invincible I looted it
Just before I found the Invincible vid, one of my alts finally got into the mailroom quests. I think Blizz was trolling us with that one delivery quest. (You know the one)
Keep up the good work. Love your channel! I do have one complaint...your bags. You need a bag addon lol. Try out Bagnon. Turns all your bags into on big bag. Can do alot of things with it including check all your alts bags and banks. Such a huge quality of life addon that i CANT play without haha.
Thank you for this! Given I had just wiped both of my drives to correct a internal conflict going on in my computer I learned that Twitch doesn't save your previous addons and I was having to rebuild my ui from scratch. This helped me a ton in remember the pet battle addons and a few other odds and ends I had before ^^
Thank for the list :D Another add on to check out is Method Dungeon Tools SUPER COMPREHENSIVE M+ Tool PvP addon list you may want to add H.H.T.D = Immediately marks the Tanks and Healers in PvP or PVE imho mandatory for PvP and I find it absolutely wonderful for PvE as well, because I feel it is my job as dps to protect the healer, and it assists me in keeping track of Tanks exact location. Of course you can do this manually but you would be amazed how many people don't like having a mark over their head, so these marks are your eyes only. Good Luck in BFA!
About AH addons, I sugget you to give a try to Collection Shop. It's dedicated to transmog, toys, etc. It will scan the AH and show you the cheapiest pieces you don't already know, and for pets/mounts, the ones you're missing. It saves me a lot of time
That’s a helpful video. Have you ever considered using an inventory management add-on like ArkInventory? For me, it’s one of the few “must haves” for this game. Gone are the days where I manually manage things in my bags. ArkInventory automatically groups things together according to my preferences, so for example all my tanking gear appears in one place, all my consumables appear in another, and all my quest items like the Booterang appear in another. It’s superb.
JUST WATCHED UR VID. BUNCH OF GREAT IDEA. if u want a bag addon Bagnon is awesome. I cant play without it. it puts all bags in 1 window. absolutely LOVE IT.
One I have that I love is Opie, which was recommended either by Bellular or Nobbel. It makes it easier to bring up professions instead of having them on the action bar, with it reading the professions that each toon has so you don't have to set it yourself. Just add in things like the fishing raft, hat, etc. It also makes it easier to use teleportation spells on my mages, and for all toons to be able to hearth or change between specs and summon favorite mounts.
With Bartender you can also just type "/kb" at any time and just mouseover and Keybind! It's super easy, takes you to the same menu so you can still specify character specific, it's lovely, I swear by Bartender.
For those who already have lots of keybinds but want to use an action bar addon, I highly recommend Dominos. It does all the same stuff as bartender, but doesn't mess with already defined keybinds. Bartender keeps already defined keybinds, but doesn't show them on icons.
Hey Hazel, how do you move if you use the primary buttons on your gamepad for spells? do you even use wads or do you use the 2 main mouse buttons? I ask as I am trying to figure out how to start using my gamepad with wow, but havent fully figured out how to do it and still be mobile for Mythic+ and raiding.
Its really charming to see someone use a razer naga for 24 keybinds:D I remember last time i used one was during wotlk for arena where i had like 60 binds cause of macros and stuff.
Thanks for the list. I highly recommend ArkInventory is you like organized bags. It let's you break up one big bag into cells that sort by category, or you can make custom filters. It let's me know exactly where items are, no searching, everything is organized and easy to find. I don't know how people can use stuff like Bagnon or the default UI for bags. I need organization.
I have a few others that I would recommend that you do not have listed. Minimap Button Frame: collects all the minimap buttons from around your minimap and creates a bar you can move to have them listed instead. much less cluttered than around the minimap OPIE: This is an addon that lets you macro a button to pull up a hidden rondel with items, macro's or spells Letting you access things you want but don't need on your bars all the time: I have a profession ring, a Raiding ring IE summon stone, feasts, flasks etc. . and a Mount Bar with the mounts I want, Toys, Pets you can do anything with it Like I have my whistle and hearthsone on a ring. .
for android or iphone users *Category quick-jump timestamps!* UI Addons: 00:17 PVE Addons: 5:17 Auction Addons: 11:14 Pet Battle Addons: 13:00 Quality of Life Addons: 15:08 Collection Addons: 19:06 PvP Addons: 23:21 end of video 26:21
If you have multiple toons, Altoholic is a MUST HAVE. I highly recommend it, although it can be a bit scary when you see how many days you've played (762.23 Days, Mainly on Saurfang)
May I suggest Mappy as a mini map add on. It allows you to resize the mini map and change it's location. One other good addon is Kaliel Quest Tracker, it changes the the quest tracker and allows you to move it as well.
OMG, Hazel, I need to adopt you. Seriously. You are a goddess, making all the stuff so understandable and why. I take copious notes when watching you. I DO have a question--I need a tracker for my Sheep spell. I have no idea when it's going off use and I need it for raid. Heads up, middle or lower middle screen capability. Do you know of something for that one? Add-ons you didn't mention that I swear by: 1. Mini Button Frame--takes all those cluttery buttons and puts them in it's own box that can be minimized away. So much easier than trying to cram 12 buttons on that map ring. 2. Postal---you have mail. Click once, it has all the letters. Click another button to download all stuff into bags. I can't Auctionator without this one, I hate opening 9000 letters with gold/items in them. It also has guild list drop down and last 20 people you sent to. 3. Tom Tom-- Being blind and number phobic, I use this one to put a big arrow in the middle of my screen so I can see it and follow it. Just type /way 44 34 (coordinates, no comma) and you can just follow it without mousing. LOVE this one. ok--now running away to download and configure all sorts of cool new things.

Does WQ List still work after the latest nerf by Blizzard?
You can use Orderhallcommander instead Hazel. It also has some nice options, like blocking troops, or keeping troops being autokilled by missions.
You mentioned TidyPlates, and just for people who still use it, it hasn't been developer updated since before 7.3. There are a couple patches available on Curse's website in the comments of the addon, but they aren't official. After seeing this video I'm gonna switch to kui, they look great.
you might wanna look into MInimapButtonBag(MBB on curse) takes all those minimap buttons and puts them into an expanable list.
@Craiberk it should be the Razer Orbweaver ^^
I don't think you need to apologie for not accepting whispers. People have the right to choose how they communicate, and who they communicate with. Love your channel, thanks for the update on your addons.
I love how excited you got while discovering how wonderful Altoholic is!
Its amazing how fast you speak, its even more amazing how easily understandable everything you present to us is. You're awesome
I don't comment here that often, but I have to say you're scaring me. This is like the third time you've lread my mind about what video I'd like to watch from you and you deliver a couple days later.

Except it does help if the other realm is a Connected Realm, and those still don't show (most of the time).
This is also a nice feature in Ark inventory if your looking for a new inventory add on. As long as you’ve logged the character recently you can see all your alts bags and banks without switching chars.

Fantastic video! Saw quite a few I'd like to give a try. Also, loved your excitement as you discovered new stuff about altoholic haha
2 great videos in one day. You're working overtime
Altoholic can also help you keep track of which recipes your alts have already learned in whatever professions they have, both major and minor. This way you know where you can safely sell a technique/recipe.

Loved your enthusiasm while explaining your mods.
Would like you to suggest a few mods to try
Bagnon - will show all your bags as if it was a giant one, with lots of options to configure.
BagBrother - will allow you to see your bags and bank itens anywhere, including the bags and banks of your alts.
BankItems - same as BagBrother (I disabled it due to some LUA errors)
WIM (WoW Instant Messenger) - will show the whispers as individual windows that you can close without anytime and reopen later to read and respond the messages
Postal - excellent for organizing your mailbox with option to open all messages (useful when receiving dozens of auction house messages) and search for your alts names, guild members etc when you're sending a message
A Peon's Burden - Plays the peon "work complete" or "work work" sound each time you complete all the objectives for a quest
I play at least one of every class at least till cap usually geared enough for current content and altoholic is a lifesaver when your looking for matts across 10+ characters
Thank you so much for this! It has already helped me out so much in game. I have used Bartender for years now and love it! But I have installed a lot of the addons you have recommended. I look forward to playing around with them a little bit more!
Its quite cute how u try to help us to understand u when u think u're speaking too fast.
Cause u speak wildly fast, that is.
I feel like completing an achievement when I completely understand you, considering that english is not my first language.

I just got the auction one. Had no idea that was a thing and the big auction one was too big for me. Holy goats my life just got a whole lot easier with this thing thank you so much!
Mezasu Trade skill master takes loads to set up and to master, but it makes the AH a joy to do. And just being showered with gold is a bonus.
Hazel - instead of AutoVendor, take a look at "Scrap (Junk Seller)" - does basically the same thing, but has a ui button you can drag new autosell items to (So instead of typing the command and click linking, you would have just dragged the item to the button while at a vendor,) an ingame UI for selecting things like low-level items, etc., and you can click the UI button to trigger another sell if you were over the 12 item limit.

Thank you Hazel! Enjoy your video's and your recommendations. Congrats on getting the rare mount from Lich King the other day too!! =)
Great list. Even some I don't have.
I randomly found a great addon.
DialogKey - it lets you use keystrokes instead of clicking.
If there are several options in a dialog window, they are assigned 1,2,3...
For all other confirmations you can just use space bar.
Is a great time saver. Especially for quests where you need to talk to 8 druids to save them instead of just clicking. Also good for the annoying "are you sure?"
If you want to skip quest texts, it is an absolute must have.
I love that pretty much all of your UI addons are in ELVUI, which is why I made the switch.
Just to note, pawn is set to default values from Mr. Robot. You should never take their default upgrade numbers at face value, you should *ALWAYS* get your values from an outside source. And if you're going to use PAWN, you should consider using SimC addon otherwise you're not going to be effectively using pawn.
Looking forward to the new TSM guides, brilliant!
This is great! I really appreciate it, it was so helpful to have you walk through what all can be done in each add-on!! 👍
Gotta say, since I subbed (after watching TSM 3 vids), I love your content and the way u make it.
Thank you. Been playing about 12 years and there were alot of the addons i didn't know existed and others i haven't or didn't use properly. Appreciate your video's since I found them Lol i guess i just run around lost and didn't know why i sucked on my main which is a SP, now i do lol. Waiting for your next video.
Just wanted to say thanks for this video. It helped me find a start for coming back to the game.
Best addons list ever!
Thank you Hazel awesome work :)
O. M. G. I've been using Bartender4 for years ... and never flipping noticed there was an option for keybinding in it! O_O Sheesh. Thanks for this, gonna check it out soon and see how it works with my G13 and Red Dragon gaming mouse, can't wait!
Some nice suggestions I didn't know of yet there. Thanks Hazel!
I still dont know how you can prefer pet journal enhanced search function over rematches. But I mean you do say your use to it so that makes sense. Rematch is so much easier to use and quicker, I'd highly recommend it to new players over pet journal enhanced.
Pawn and Rematch here I come! Awesome. Thanks!
Thanks for the video! I ended up with 5 or 6 new add-ons after watching!
Hello new addons, welcome to my life. Thanks Hazel
Huzzah! This was thoroughly enjoyable! Thank you for sharing, you showed me a few I’m going to try can I mog it , forexample! Altoholic is wonderful, I feel lost when I dont have it, it makes professions across alts sooooo easy! Thank goodness you talk at a speed that keeps me engaged and I have to compliment your diction! Have a great day! 💕👍🏼
Love the video. I have been wanting some of these addons but never knew the names of them, lol. Great job. I am now a fan, lol.
We use a similar setup, you're really going to like Atoholic. A couple of things though, first Altoholic can get pretty bloated when you have a lot of alts (go figure) and adds quite a bit of load time as a result. That's the reason I ended up dropping it. It IS super helpful when juggling a ton of alts and trying to figure out "who's got that thing I need to finish this craft this other thing and finish this quest?" but it comes at a cost.
Additionally, several of the features you're using are covered in Leatrix Plus. I initially got this when it was for fixing Latency issues years ago, and to maximize view distance automatically. But there's a lot of other things like adding cordinates, auto repair, auto vendor trash, as well as some other good quality of life stuff like auto accept resurection/summons. And auto group/invite from friends list or keyword.
In other words, it's worth a look.
Thanks Hazel!! I found this as helpful as your boss tutorials!!
I like the add-ons OPIE and Immersion! OPIE allows you to create rings of skills similar to how you can select emotes and voice lines in Overwatch. Basically I use it to quickly access my mounts on my characters or for example on my Mage to quickly open up a ring that shows me all my portals or teleport so I can quickly select one.
Immersion just basically turns every single quest window into one of the floating head bubbles that appear whenever you have special dialogue for WQs or stories. It also cuts down the wall of text into smaller 2 or 3 sentence paragraphs that you can click through with space bar so you can skim a quest text even easier!
Great video!!! I’ll be installing a few of these when I get home from work! Thank you!!
Thank you so much!! So detailed and simple to understand. I'm going to download some addons right now. And love your reaction at the end Iol discovering the addon
I was watching the video of you getting invincible as I was running icc and I swear as soon as you started freaking out over getting invincible I looted it
Just before I found the Invincible vid, one of my alts finally got into the mailroom quests. I think Blizz was trolling us with that one delivery quest. (You know the one)
I'm definitely getting Altoholic when I log back onto wow
Update: I downloaded it and there were SO MANY FILES LIKE but it worked and I LOVE it!!
Keep up the good work. Love your channel! I do have one complaint...your bags. You need a bag addon lol. Try out Bagnon. Turns all your bags into on big bag. Can do alot of things with it including check all your alts bags and banks. Such a huge quality of life addon that i CANT play without haha.
So...you got anything for Shadowlands? I just got it but I always loved your channel.
Thank you for this! Given I had just wiped both of my drives to correct a internal conflict going on in my computer I learned that Twitch doesn't save your previous addons and I was having to rebuild my ui from scratch. This helped me a ton in remember the pet battle addons and a few other odds and ends I had before ^^
thanks for the 3x4 grid action bar idea, it helped a lot with remembering which key to hit on my corsair mouse lol
Can you do an update video?
A great achievement addon is Overachiever, it really adds a lot to the achievements tab.
Thank for the list :D Another add on to check out is Method Dungeon Tools SUPER COMPREHENSIVE M+ Tool
PvP addon list you may want to add H.H.T.D = Immediately marks the Tanks and Healers in PvP or PVE imho mandatory for PvP and I find it absolutely wonderful for PvE as well, because I feel it is my job as dps to protect the healer, and it assists me in keeping track of Tanks exact location. Of course you can do this manually but you would be amazed how many people don't like having a mark over their head, so these marks are your eyes only. Good Luck in BFA!
About AH addons, I sugget you to give a try to Collection Shop. It's dedicated to transmog, toys, etc. It will scan the AH and show you the cheapiest pieces you don't already know, and for pets/mounts, the ones you're missing.
It saves me a lot of time
That’s a helpful video. Have you ever considered using an inventory management add-on like ArkInventory? For me, it’s one of the few “must haves” for this game. Gone are the days where I manually manage things in my bags. ArkInventory automatically groups things together according to my preferences, so for example all my tanking gear appears in one place, all my consumables appear in another, and all my quest items like the Booterang appear in another. It’s superb.
Thank you for this video Hazel! Very helpful!
JUST WATCHED UR VID. BUNCH OF GREAT IDEA. if u want a bag addon Bagnon is awesome. I cant play without it. it puts all bags in 1 window. absolutely LOVE IT.
I’m really mad that Blizzard hotfixed out the auto invite box. That small change has reduced available groups by half.
One I have that I love is Opie, which was recommended either by Bellular or Nobbel. It makes it easier to bring up professions instead of having them on the action bar, with it reading the professions that each toon has so you don't have to set it yourself. Just add in things like the fishing raft, hat, etc. It also makes it easier to use teleportation spells on my mages, and for all toons to be able to hearth or change between specs and summon favorite mounts.
Thank you so much for your videos today, they’ve all helped so much!!!
Altoholic is great!!! Also saved Instances is very handy to have as well!
Hi there! I am very new to WoW, and I am sort of scared to play. But your guide/display was a great information boost! Thank you.
Thank you! I've been lost after the 8.0 update!
With Bartender you can also just type "/kb" at any time and just mouseover and Keybind! It's super easy, takes you to the same menu so you can still specify character specific, it's lovely, I swear by Bartender.
This was extremely helpful - thank you Hazel!
Great Guide Hazel....LOVE your videos :D
Loved that you went so much into detail...this vid was very helpful....bless your heart for taking the time to show us...SUBBED!!!
For those who already have lots of keybinds but want to use an action bar addon, I highly recommend Dominos. It does all the same stuff as bartender, but doesn't mess with already defined keybinds. Bartender keeps already defined keybinds, but doesn't show them on icons.
Hey Hazel, how do you move if you use the primary buttons on your gamepad for spells? do you even use wads or do you use the 2 main mouse buttons? I ask as I am trying to figure out how to start using my gamepad with wow, but havent fully figured out how to do it and still be mobile for Mythic+ and raiding.
This was so helpful, thank you Hazel! You rock :)
I used Garrison Mission Manager until it broke this patch. Enter Master Plan. It’s a better addon than GMM and the devs are active.
I used them both. They compliment each other.
I use Orderhallcommander, which was just recently updated for BfA.
Came here to mention Order Halls Commander. I used this one exclusively in Legion and it was a godsend.
have used altoholic for years. can't do without it. sooo many things you can check your alts for without having to log onto them.
Wow, this video was insanely helpful. Im a noob and just now starting to add addons
Nice, always enjoy your videos.
Its really charming to see someone use a razer naga for 24 keybinds:D I remember last time i used one was during wotlk for arena where i had like 60 binds cause of macros and stuff.
Thanks for the list.
I highly recommend ArkInventory is you like organized bags. It let's you break up one big bag into cells that sort by category, or you can make custom filters. It let's me know exactly where items are, no searching, everything is organized and easy to find.
I don't know how people can use stuff like Bagnon or the default UI for bags. I need organization.
Order Hall Commander is, IMO, the best garrison/class hall/mission table addon.
I have a few others that I would recommend that you do not have listed.
Minimap Button Frame: collects all the minimap buttons from around your minimap and creates a bar you can move to have them listed instead. much less cluttered than around the minimap
OPIE: This is an addon that lets you macro a button to pull up a hidden rondel with items, macro's or spells Letting you access things you want but don't need on your bars all the time: I have a profession ring, a Raiding ring IE summon stone, feasts, flasks etc. . and a Mount Bar with the mounts I want, Toys, Pets you can do anything with it Like I have my whistle and hearthsone on a ring. .

Well deserved sub and like, keep up the good work. Have a nice day! :D
If you have multiple toons, Altoholic is a MUST HAVE. I highly recommend it, although it can be a bit scary when you see how many days you've played (762.23 Days, Mainly on Saurfang)
May I suggest Mappy as a mini map add on. It allows you to resize the mini map and change it's location. One other good addon is Kaliel Quest Tracker, it changes the the quest tracker and allows you to move it as well.
Thank you for making this great vid. It made my life so much easier.
OMG, Hazel, I need to adopt you. Seriously. You are a goddess, making all the stuff so understandable and why. I take copious notes when watching you. I DO have a question--I need a tracker for my Sheep spell. I have no idea when it's going off use and I need it for raid. Heads up, middle or lower middle screen capability. Do you know of something for that one?
Add-ons you didn't mention that I swear by:
1. Mini Button Frame--takes all those cluttery buttons and puts them in it's own box that can be minimized away. So much easier than trying to cram 12 buttons on that map ring.
2. Postal---you have mail. Click once, it has all the letters. Click another button to download all stuff into bags. I can't Auctionator without this one, I hate opening 9000 letters with gold/items in them. It also has guild list drop down and last 20 people you sent to.
3. Tom Tom-- Being blind and number phobic, I use this one to put a big arrow in the middle of my screen so I can see it and follow it. Just type /way 44 34 (coordinates, no comma) and you can just follow it without mousing. LOVE this one.
ok--now running away to download and configure all sorts of cool new things.
nice to see an ui for a change that is not elvui based
I used to love playing world of modcraft. Altaholic was a favorite of mine back in BC and Wrath.
