Useful addons?

Unit Frames

PitBull Unit Frames - Very really detailed unit frames very good for PvPers willing to spend lots of time sorting these Unit Frames to fit their style.



Simple Unit Frames - Simple Unit Frames are very simple and not much different to the blizzard standard unit frames though is useful for its accuracy.



Shadowed Unit Frames - Less complicated version of PitBull though has some good ideas and takes less AddOn memory.



X-Perl Unit Frames - My personal favourite unit frame AddOn as it is easy to configure and shows detailed information on the target and allows me to have my focus frames precisely how I like them.





Raid and Party Frames

Clique - Allows click- and hover-casting on unit, raid and party frames.



Grid2 - Shows raid or party and is very accurate about health and mana.



HealBot Continued - Same thing as VuhDo but allows you to use all the buttons on your mouse including all the buttons on the the razor naga mouse.



VuhDo - Shows people in your group and raid and also allows you to click the name to cast a spell on that target, allows many more options this is great for raids.





Nameplates

Tidy Plates - Nice square nameplates, customisation options, and look good with basic minimap.



Healers have to die - Adds two different healer symbols to the nameplates of friendly and enemy healers though has a slight disclaimer as it

classes everyone as healer as soon as they use a healing spell without taking consideration of the players spec but is a great PvP AddOn.





Action Bars

Bartender - My personal favourite as it's easy to configure and allows a lot of options and doesn't quick page like Dominos.



Dominos - Less detailed version of Bartender though slightly more good looking with a good configuration.





Casting Bars

Quartz - Shows spell time.





Minimap

Basic Minimap - Square map and my personal favourite.



Chinchilla Minimap - Allows you to choose the appearance of the map from a few options and comes with coordinates meaning you don't have to download Mapster or Coordinates to show them.



Dominos Minimap - Square map pretty decent as it's low AddOn memory.

focusheals - Type /fh b to announce a list of the enemy healers in /bg

SaySapped - Immediately /S Sapped when sapped and informs you in chat who did it which is extremely useful FCing as you'll see less people running away from you during sap which avoids getting facerolled by 3 or more rogues.







PvP - Enemy Information and Timers

BattlegroundTargets - Shows the opposite faction's health and mana in a BG and allows you to focus them by right clicking their name.



Capping Battleground Timers - Shows timers in BG's and FC and EFC names in WSG and Twin Peaks.



DBM-SpellTimers - Same thing as Capping but doesn't show EFC or FC's name on the worldstate.



Spy - Helps determine the enemy's class and spec.



Stealth Alerter - Shows who has used Stealth or Prowl with both factions, if you get sapped it tells you the perpetrator.



PvP and PvE Combat - Alerts, UI Mods, Spell Suggestions, Misc

DHUD4 - Shows your and your target's health by the side of your character though can be quite messy on your screen and I advise making the scale slightly smaller when using it.
