Addons for PvP?

pinochet

Legend
Hi all -



The last time I played seriously was BC endgame--I'm currently configuring my addons for lv20 pvp and finding my needs a little different. Right now I'm just running icehud and tidyplates, and I might set up power auras to track cooldowns.



Anything big I'm overlooking? I'm playing a hunter but I'll probably roll a healer soon, so general addon advice is very welcome for me and others.

probably the best addon for arenas, ever

not sure how useful it is in this bracket, though - it does announce when an enemy uses an interrupt so it makes it easier to detect if you did a successful fake rather than lookin at interrupt bar, but thats just my 2 cents
 
Healers must die

Marks any person doing a certain amount of healing with a Big Red Cross, so you have no excuse to ignore them
 
I used to use DBM. It showed time to cap in AB, as well as how many bases were required to win, and how long the win would take with the current flags controlled.

Any addon which shows you the pvp trinket CD on BGs?

Afflicted shows other peoples trinket/human racial CD, but they share a timer and since trinket is 5 minutes low level it doesn't work out well



I am a bit of an addon whore. So here goes the pvp ones.



Ones listed already that I use:

Omnicc - displays time remaining on your buttons.

Capping - BG queue time, shows who and how much a team will win AB as nodes get capped, shows FC HP %.

MSBT - awesome customizable scrolling text.

Quartz - cast bars and some timer bars.



Ones not said:

Afflicted3 - spell bars for enemies. This hasn't been as helpful at 20 as it was at 70/80.

Aloft - customized nameplates. I like mine colored by class.

Classtimers - timer bars for your buffs/debuffs/CCs

DR Timer - timer bars for diminishing returns.

Gladius - arena frames.

LoseControl - shows icon and time for when you and your team gets CC'd. recently recommended to me.

Saysapped - auto says that you are sapped in vicinity.

VanasKoS - kill on site addon that is way more useful in world pvp to notify you of gankers/assholes, but the hatelist is nice for baddies/griefers/assholes as you can add notes too.

I run OmniCC, Quartz, LoseControl, Tidyplates(rather than aloft), and Saysapped(Which is too awesome, it even tells you who sapped you, in case you want to know if its the 24 thats been hassling you all game or anyone else). I have been meaning to pick up dbm, but capping looks nice without the extra things i don't need from dbm
