World of Warcraft, or WOW, addons have different benefits, for the most part, the addons allow players a better gaming experience. WOW addons can be used by players to customize the look of their game as well as enhance player performance in the areas of questing, gaining skills, obtaining achievements, and running dungeons and raids.
Download a wow addon manager like wowmatrix. Google Wowmatrix --- Inside your World of Warcraft game folder you will find a folder called "Interface". Inside is a folder called "Addons". Addons provided on abovementioned websites usually come zipped, with the files in a folder with the addon's name. Simply copy this folder entirely into the "Addons" folder. Make sure to quit WoW and restart it. At your character selection screen, at the bottom right, is a button "Addons". Click it to see a list of addons you are using. Make sure all addons you want to use have a tick in the box, and that the box "Load out of Date Addons" is ticked, in case you installed an older addon. Log into your character, and the addon should now be active.
Wow interface is good for beginner and curse is the website you use to find addons
well, i got one and asked GMs about it. They stated that it is because one of the addons were causing the error so basically all you have to do is go into your World of Warcraft folder, and delete the interface folder so that all the addons will be removed and start world of warcraft from scratch.
In World of Warcraft, addons are little bits of code that allow you to do repetitive tasks, keep a database of information, and change the user interface (UI). These addons are free of charge (although you can still donate).
They are addons for a specific class that you play. I play a priest so I get addons specifically for priests to make it easier for me to play my class.
Yes it is.
No, most addons will not get you banned. The only things that addons are allowed to do in game are approved by Blizzard. If Blizzard does not want an addon to do something, they just make it so that addon can not do it.
In general all you need for downloading and using an addon are WoW itself and a web-browser to download the addon from a third party site like wowinterface or curse. That said, there are addon-control packages like the curse client, which allow you to download and update many addons from a central program.
Depends on what kind of addons they are. You don't need Cataclysm for alot of them, though.
The only answer for this that i can give you is, "Not really". Considering that you have a computer able to play the game World of Warcraft, I would say patches have little to no effect on you computers speed. Downloading addons for the game can make the game run a small percentage slower each time but wont effect your computer while the game is not running.
Depends on what type of looting the raid leader has it set to. It also depends on if you have addons installed that hide that kind of information from the chat box.
In order to manually install an addon, first download the addon and unpack its zip file. Everything contained inside the zip file should then be copied into the World of Warcraft\Interface\Addons folder. When you start up World of Warcraft again, click the "addons" button at the bottom left of the character selection screen and make sure that the addon is there and the box in front of it is checked. The addon should now be running properly. If the addon has not been updated for some time, you may need to click the "load out of date addons" option for it to work, but this increases the chance of the addon causing errors.
