8 Best Addons for World of Warcraft The War Within

While The World of Warcraft: The War Within is completely playable without addons, especially after their user interface rehauls in Dragonflight, there are still some addons that are too useful to dismiss. Here is the list of the best and most useful addons in the World of Warcraft: The War Within.

Must-Have Addons for World of Warcraft The War Within

DBM – Deadly Boss Mods

Deadly Boss Mods is probably the most useful addon on the list. World of Warcraft always introduces new mechanics, and Deadly Boss Mods is there to help you learn all the mechanics of the fight. In a way, it keeps telling you what to do, but in a good way.

Details!

Details! is your go-to tool for damage, healing, and any informational meters when in combat. You can check who’s doing good and bad in terms of damage and healing. You can also check if people aren’t dispelling in crucial situations that require them. In a way, it is almost mandatory to have this addon just to know if you are doing well.

OmniCD

OmniCD is a solo and party tool that allows you to know exactly when your skills are going to be available. You’ll notice a tiny countdown on your skills to know when you can use them again. The more important feature of OmniCD is seeing your party member’s cooldown, specifically their interrupt skills if they are available.

TomTom

TomTom is a navigation addon that helps players look for “exact” markers or locations of things. If you search for some treasures or points on the web, you’ll most likely get coordinates in the form of a code like “/way 53,68” or something similar. Typing this on your chat while having TomTom will navigate you toward the location to find the thing you are looking for.

WeakAuras

WeakAuras is an advanced interface that helps you with anything by showing information you can find elsewhere. For example, if you are running hard raid bosses with very specific mechanics tied to your raid party, you can get some WAGO.io codes that give you some useful interfaces for the fight. It may come in the form of some extra icons, sound notifications, or even a big text flashing on your screen.

Apart from bosses, the community can make their own interface with regard to skill rotations for complicated classes. The potential is limitless for WeakAuras.

Pawn

Pawn is a helpful gear tool that tells you a specific gear is better than the other. Generally, it has some default configuration that has specific secondary stats as a priority for each class and specialization. However, there might be some other builds that may require different secondary stats, and you can change the weights using Pawn to tell which gear would be better for your character. For extreme parsers, you might want to check some raidsims instead.

Raider.IO

While there is a lot of controversy regarding the Raider.IO addon, it is still the “meta” when it comes to doing content. The addon shows each player’s “experience” when it comes to dungeons, raids, and other content. If you finished the first five bosses of the current raid, your experience would show as 5/9 normal (assuming you finished the normal difficulty).

You can see where the controversy stems from, as players may become extremely strict when choosing party members. Players with the highest ratings in M+ and raids will have some priority or bias, which is why some players want to push through fast to finish the hardest content. It becomes easier for them to finish repetitive content in the future.

TradeSkillMaster or TSM

TradeSkillMaster is the go-to tool for anyone who wants to level up their professions and make money out of them. TSM shows a lot of useful features, such as giving you a brief overview of all your materials, getting price histories of certain items, and even making predictions on what resources might become more expensive. Anything revolving around professions will want the TSM addon.
