WeakAuras

"I would learn weak auras, most addons can be achieved with a weak aura these days."

"I like to have something to track my active mitigation and cooldowns available at a glance."

"As long as you have good WeakAuras to track active mitigation uptime."

"Weakauras, voiceover, atlas loot."

"They recommended me weakauras in here. Did some research and it looks good to keep track of cooldowns to improve rotation."

"For Ret. DBM. To help with everything."

"[Here's a weakaura that tracks trash mobs' spell cooldowns]"

"DBM provides excellent visual cues for boss mechanics."

ElvUI

4.6

"If you're looking for a UI replacement, I highly recommend ElvUI with ToxiUI!"
