Well, since there's already a topic...I guess I'll ask here. I'm currently playing my prot pally (just hit 49) and I'm curious what people would recommend for a prot pally. I have no add-ons at all, no threat meters or anything, so I'm basically looking for the whole kit and kaboodle. I don't know why, but I've always been hesitant about messing around with add-ons (simply because I've never really felt the need, since I have a macro that tells me coords.) Oh...and probably a dps meter as well for my 62 shammy, if you don't mind :)
Thanks in advance, all.
Omen/KTM Threat meters (I have both, depending on who I'm with and what they are running. ie if my group only has KTM, I'll use that so they can see my threat as well as me seeing theirs).
OptiTaunt: gives a warning to the target of my Righteous Defense when it is resisted so they are aware of the fact, also can send that message to the party and/or raid. Plays an annoying little "jingle" for me too so I am more aware of my taunt being resisted.
TankPoints: allows you to calculate what your stats would be if you were to change a certain piece of gear, add a certain enchant, etc. I don't use it for the gear comparison aspect as it is tailored for Warriors, but it has helped a lot, particularly making usre I stay uncrushable as I swap gear/gems.
That's all I really use "as a tank". Any other addons are just "fluff": TitanPanel, Critline, DamageMeters, etc..
EDIT: look into "Enhancer" for your Shaman as well, particularly if you are, or will be, Enhancement spec. Puts a visual display of your Totems, how long they have, pulse when the Totem "ticks", and in the middle of your screen shows the time left of your Stormstrike on the enemy as well as the "hidden CD" on Windfury Weapon. Has helped me get the most of my Totems.
