Atlas and AtlasLootClassic
To put it simply, Atlas Classic WoW and AtlasLootClassic are together the ancestor of the Adventurer's Journal of the modern version (Retail) of the game. Not only do they allow you to know exactly the loot table of each boss in the game thanks to a large database, but it even offers the drop rate of most items, as well as a map of each instance!

Attune
Attune allows you to follow in real time the progress of your character in obtaining the various accesses of WotLK Classic, but it also allows your guild leader to know where each of the members of his roster are in obtaining these. this. This addon is much less important than in the past two expansions, however it allows you to track your progress in obtaining access to Sons of Hodir, a reputation crucial for Shoulder enchantments, as well as for Knights of the Ebon Blade, very important for melee DPS Head enchantment. A significant plus if you lack knowledge about the quests to do!

BigWigs Bossmods and Deadly Boss Mods
BigWigs is available on WotLK Classic and is considered to be the most effective at this time. Its counterpart, Deadly Boss Mods is also available to meet all expectations, the difference between one and the other being very minimal. For the few players not familiar with these two addons, they allow you to track the upcoming techniques of the bosses of each raid, allowing you to anticipate your placements and techniques accordingly.

Details! Damage Meter
Very powerful, Details is the most reputable and effective of all DamageMeters and even has a built-in threat management function. For players unfamiliar with this addon, it works on the same pattern as Recount and Skada but adds many features in addition to the basic DPS and HPS measurement provided by party players. Basically, it records the logs of the fights you do and gives you a simplified summary of what happened, including your performance in terms of damage dealt or healing done, and more!

PallyPower
Class: Paladin
Exclusively dedicated to Paladins, PallyPower is a very important and widely used addon that allows all Paladins in the same raid to assign each of the blessings at its disposal to a specific class.

Very important especially for players being spammed with links by their friends, Prat allows you to modify the chat window at your convenience. But the major feature of this addon is that it makes web page links clickable in-game, making it a must-have for anyone.

Question
Questie is the addon facilitating leveling par excellence, without distorting too much the original experience offered by Wrath of the Lich King Classic. In particular, it allows you to no longer go around in circles for hours looking for a quest objective by showing you where it is located on your map and your mini-map. Almost essential in leveling even if it has a little "Retail" flavor that anti-Retailers will not appreciate, it perfectly replaces this official feature deployed with WotLK but which the developers have announced not to integrate into the game in the Classic version !

Threat Plates
Threat Plates replaces "nameplates", these life bars visible above allies and enemies, with others that are largely customizable and more adapted to the game in 2022. It is particularly crucial since it lets you know where you stand in terms of Threat on each creature with these nameplates changing color depending on the target's current Threat level towards you. It also allows you to see the debuffs you have applied to each target, their remaining duration and a whole bunch of other essential things.

WeakAuras
WeakAuras 2 is arguably the most powerful addon ever created for World of Warcraft as it allows you to track any abilities, buffs, debuffs or anything else and announce when events you choose to stalk take place. Everything can be tracked using this addon, from a simple personal buff to a boss ability normally invisible to the normal player's eye, making it the most indispensable of all addons, including on Wrath of the Lich King Crusader Classic.
