I'm an addon junky so be prepared for the long list of Ace (exclusively
Ace2, actually) addons I use:
- Bartender2 (style, move, resize the blizzard action bars)
- BigWigs (BossMod, replaces CT_RABossMod)
- Buffalo / ElkBuffBar (customize your buffs / debuffs list)
- Chronometer (like CCWatch, timer bars for debuff / effects on enermy
like frost nova, polymorph, etc.)
- Detox (decursive replacement, the priority list is not as
configurable as the original decursive, but pretty good otherwise)
- DeuceCommander (gives you drop down menu configs for ace addons that
could only be configured by slash commands otherwise, I use it with
fubar)
- FuBar + various modules
- FuTextures (more fubar backgrounds if you get tired of the default)
- GMail (CT_MailMod replacement. works _exactly_ the same way the CT
one does, good for people who are too used to the CT way of things)
- IDCard (add item icons next to item tooltips)
- InFlight (very lightweight flight timer bar)
- Mendeleev (shows info about items, like stack size, used in what
profession and which recipes if you have that profession, faction
required for rep items, etc)
- MobHealth (speaks for itself, shows you how much hitpoints mobs have)
- oCB (casting bar replacement, so I can move it around, resize, change
texture)
- oRA2 (CT_RaidAssist replacement. compatable with CT, your raid leader
won't even know you're not on CTRA if you do not tell)
- PerfectRaid (minimalistic raid frame that shows only info that would
be useful / interesting to my class)
- PerfectTargets (list all the hostile units of my raid party members
has targeted, showing how many people has each targetted, and which MT
is on them. Load-on-demand, needs a stub like SupplyAndDemand.)
- Prat (chat mod with many many cool improvement to the default chat
ui, it replaced ChatMod for me, but there are many more similar non-ace
ones out there)
- SCT (scrolling combat text, where Blizzard took the idea for their
floating combat text from. It's still more configurable then the
blizzard version so I kept it)
- SimpleCombatLog (filter out all the extra info in the combat log to
show only entries that would be interested to you)
- SupplyAndDemand (for me it solely exists to load PerfectTargets, but
in generally it's a stub to load any load-on-demand addons when certain
conditions are satisfied, such as joining a raid)
- TheLowDown (auto scroll to the bottom of chat after a certain amount
of time, like a few seconds. fixes my problem of leaving the chat
somewhere in the history and missing all the new messages)
- TinyTip (tooltip modifications like adding extra info about players /
mobs, coloring according to type, anchoring to mouse cursor, etc.)
- WitchHunt (like SpellAlert or SpellAlertSCT, prints a line when an
enermy begins casting something)
- XLoot (loot window that anchors by your mouse cursor, AND it resizes
to fit all items available, so no more flipping through 3 pages of
loot)
A lot of them are technically beta, so you might not find them all on
