The best WoW addons to use in 2021

If you play World of Warcraft, addons are one of the best ways to customize and improve your experience. The user interface has barely changed since 2004 and is pretty barebones, but with just a few WoW addons you can do everything from overhauling its look entirely to automating unnecessary tasks like selling junk items and managing your inventory, or creating on-screen prompts to help you survive boss fights. How deep you want to go is entirely up to you.To get more news about buy WoW items, you can visit lootwowgold official website.

There are thousands of WoW addons to choose from, so to help you out we've rounded up a selection of the most popular, along with a few of our personal favorites. It doesn't matter if you're a hardcore raider or just logging in once a week to run World Quests, there's definitely a WoW addon that can make your life a lot easier.
A few months ago, the de facto method for installing WoW addons was through Twitch's app, but that's no longer the case. Back in November 2020, the mods section of the Twitch app was retired and replaced with a different program called Overwolf. A lot of people don't care for Overwolf, but fortunately, there's a ton of great alternatives.

We have a separate article breaking down the different WoW addon managers, but if you're looking for the simplest and best one, our recommendation is WowUp. It's easy to use, intuitive, and even let's you install some UI overhauls like ElvUI that you couldn't previously find on Twitch.

Alternatively, if you'd prefer to install your addons manually without the need for extra software, it's a fairly quick and painless process. Simply download the addon, extract it from the ZIP file and drop it into the Addons folder located in your World of Warcraft installation, which you should find at World of Warcraft/_retail_/Interface/Addons.

Using the manual method means you'll have to keep track of addons yourself and follow the steps above every time an update is available. That can be tiresome. If you plan on running more than a couple of addons, it's probably worth your while looking around for an addon manager to save you valuable time that could otherwise be spent in Azeroth.

Now that you're all set up, let's take a look at some great addons to try. All of these addons (except ElvUI in some cases) can be found via most addon managers, but we've also linked to sites where you can manually download them.
