Pally tanking addonsFollow

I was just wondering what addons the esteemed tank folk here are using here at the moment. I've tried tank buddy but it lacks some of the more important Pally spells on it(really only warns when Avengers SHield and RD have missed).

Really looking for something that will shout out to the raid when I have popped Divine Protection / LoH / a HoR misses etc similar to what has been designed for the warrior tanks out there. I have had a look on Curse but can't seem to find one that does it all. I suppose the next step might be just to create a macro for each spell myself in game if I can't find anything.

I don't know about one that announces LoH or HotR, but I know that Tankadin announces when use use Divine Protection and when it wears off. You can customize the message as well. Also announces resisted/immune taunts and when Avenger's Shield misses, but really those are the most important ones anyway.

I also use TankPoints, mostly to make sure when I lose defense rating I'll still be at the defense cap, and I use PallyPower as I think every Paladin should. Most of my other addons are just convenience addons: AtlasLoot, Titan, etc..

Thanks Maulgak. I'll give Tankadin a go. Taunts (HoR/RD) and Divine Protection are the main priority so that should do fine. I havent used anything like it in the past for tanking but the warrior tank in my guild is so if I can streamline our tanking a little it should be good for the rest of the raid. I'm trying to cut back on the amount of addons I'm using whenever possible so for me Tankadin, Omen, Pallypower and DBM are all I'll be using when raiding.

Yeah I wanted to avoid the macros for the simple reason that you can't turn them off without ******** around with your actionbars. The tankadin addon seems to be just what I was after though.
