World of Warcraft, an mmo that has been highly acclaimed by all kinds of critics. Anyone who is a serious Online Gamer has heard this name an played this game at least once. It is an entrancing game that captures the Gamer and brings them into a world of magic, adventure, and getting uber 1337 gear so you can have enough Dps, stamina, etc in order to survive the end-game raids. Peaceful things like that. Alright, all sarcasm aside there is something vital that WoW gamers must have in order to succeed among the ranks in WoW(World of Warcraft). What might that be perhaps? Add-ons. That's right, for you noobs out there. Blizzard allows players to customize their UI(User Interface) and tweak any small detail in order to make your experience more awesome than ever.
In this article, I will show you guys, the top ten World of Warcraft add-ons, in my opinion, out there. Now, there are a few things you must know before I begin. This list is generalized, they apply to all classes. There are add-ons that advance your abilities even further, but these are class-specific. Also, you will need to install the Curse Client in order to implement most of these add ons into your game. The Curse Client is free and has no viruses. Again, add-ons do not go against World of Warcraft TOS(Terms of Service). Again, these add-ons are general. If you are looking for add-ons that amplify your specific class and/or profession, choose the appropriate category on Curse's website.

From purchasing to posting, the Auctioneer Suite provides time-tested tools to allow you more time to actually play your toons or play the market. As you will soon discover, it is much more than a simple "Auctioning AddOn", the Auctioneer also shows in-depth information for all game items, such as those used in quests or recipes, enchanting, milling, prospecting and more.
Other AddOns will also use the Auctioneer statistics you gather via scanning. This is especially true for many of the popular crafting AddOns.

Deadly Boss Mods
Pretty much a guide for bosses of dungeon. It is very useful. Unfortunately, this add-on has too many features that I can fit in this description.
Number 6
WoW Instant Messanger(WIM)
This add-on is very useful. For example, every time someone messages you, a seperate window would open up(in-game).
Number 5
TitanPanel
A variety of Add-ons that basically make everything easier for you. Such as the social add-on which morphs all the social options into one.

Number 3
Carbonite
Add-on that customizes the mini-map, with minimaps to any region or dungeon and guides for locations of sellers and what-not.
Number 2
X-Perl Unitframes
Perl, with Extra stuff. Much enchanced from Perl UnitFrames, and a complete replacement for Blizzard's default unit frames, including raid frames and raid tools, with little remaining of the original code.
Number 1
Zygor Guides
A trusty companion add-on that keeps you informed anywhere you go. It is mainly a quest tracker, giving you instructions for your level on where you should go. This is the only add-on not available on curse.
