Unpopular addon that you use

I dont know what “unpopular addon” really means but I highly recommend BindPad. It allows you to have everything in macros of unlimited length, bind it, and hide it from the default UI. For example, in my opinion, hiding global-no-cd abilities cleans your UI so much that you can focus on real cds way better. BindPad is my favorite addon after Weak Auras.

ElitismHelper is kind of disliked i guess

I like that you don’t need to click, I just keybind it to r to cast and r again to reel in.

Another good addon for fishing I use is Angleur, although it needs a keybind, if you are in water and use your keybind it will automatically cast your raft as well as assigning a bobber.

Reflux is pretty unpopular but very nice.

It allows you to change all of your Ace3 profile based addons all in one go with commands like /reflux save and /reflux switch

I also wrote one myself. All it does it hide the expansion button because it is literally useless. Here’s the whole addon:

## Interface: 110000
## Version: 1.0
## Title: Hide Expansion Button
## Author: Ishayu
## Notes: Removes the useless minimap button

main.lua
local f = CreateFrame("Frame")
f:RegisterEvent("PLAYER_ENTERING_WORLD")
f:SetScript("OnEvent", function()
	ExpansionLandingPageMinimapButton:Hide()
end)

:stuck_out_tongue:

That’s very nice that you do some coding but could you elaborate some more on how exactly it works and does?

When the player finishes the loading screen and sees the game world for the first time, it simply takes the button on the minimap in the UI that just finished loading, and hides the frame, effectively removing the button from the UI.

The toc file specifies how the addon looks in the addons browser and what files it needs to load, in this case the file called main.lua, which does the things we just talked about.

I use Garrison Order Hall Report so I can access all the garrison/order hall/covenant/etc. window anywhere and also choose what expansion the default button is.

Hopefully you are not playing a tank? If you are, stop playing a tank.

Well some characters i do tank on, and please, like you could determine if i should stop playing that role or not.

If you need to rely on those candy color markers to get a dungeon done then you should get your eyes checked out.

I mean you are actively sabotaging yourself, but I guess you do you. Not like I see anyone using that addon on my keys.

And yes, there is a pretty good reason to use that addon. When tanks are pulling 5-10 mobs, which 2-3 of those might do deadly frontals, while you have to focus another mob to chain interrupt, and another to kill it asap, then I expect my tank to be marked and not move hectically.

I guess at lower keys it’s not needed, but in pugs its pretty essential, since you have no idea how your tank moves and behaves.

It’s the holy grail of all addons imo

Z-Perl Unit Frames.

I was hopping that DF UI might finally make the base game UI good enough, but it still misses many important details that Z-Perl has and Z-Perl also present those details much more intuitively.

The most unpopular addon that I use is the one that makes it available to create a fake focus target bar in my Classic client, because it doesn’t have focus optionality by default. It’s so unpopular because there’s only one person that uses it – it’s author. That addon doesn’t even have a name!

I use ExtraQuestButton and Turninator. Don’t think those are super popular.

Simple addons but really improve the flow of the game for me.

EQB just adds a button with a keybind that appears if a nearby quest uses a quest item. It’s very reliable and almost never gets it wrong.

Turninator lets you use your interact key (or whatever key you want) to progress NPC conversations and accept/turn in quests.

I used X-perl and later Z-perl unit frames but now i use Shadowed Unit frames that looks similar to those (SUF)

i use the kktnxui is a suite thats has all the mentioning addon u said most of you.like leatrix maps/plus z perl and lot other things fast loot is pro for me auto repairs/sell junk
The guys behind this ui has make a great job.give a look to this addon

This EQB sounds interesting. I’m one of those people that accepts quests and just goes to the zone and wildly kills stuff, assuming that it’s loot or kill however many items to complete it. When it’s not then I’ll check my inventory for any quest items and then drag onto my bar on the slot I have keybind V on.

However, normally I keep a macro there to do the extra_action_ui command for when you have a quest that needs the extra action button pressed because it’s easier than clicking it with the mouse.

So i’m always dragging stuff back and forth onto this slot, which is a right pain. Sounds like this might be the solution to that issue, so thanks in advance.
