Best WoW Forever Raid Addons — Addons · WoW Forever

A raid asks a lot of your screen: boss abilities, threat, debuffs and loot. These are the addons raid groups most often expect you to have, or that make the raid leader's job easier.

In Forever, addon authors note that some combat information is hidden from addons, so threat meters show less than in Classic Era: ThreatClassic2's page lists what differs.

How we chose

  • Its current release ships for WoW Forever (or partly, as noted).
  • Helps you or your group in a raid fight or its loot.
  • One addon per job.

The picks

  • Deadly Boss Mods (DBM)Compatible

    Warnings and timers for every raid boss, with voice packs and a role filter.

  • BigWigs BossmodsCompatible

    Lighter boss warnings, installed as modules; many raid groups use it instead of Deadly Boss Mods.

  • Details! Damage MeterCompatible

    Damage, healing and death logs per fight, for the whole raid.

  • ThreatClassic2Partially compatible

    Threat for everyone on your target, with warnings before you pull aggro.

  • DecursiveCompatible

    Shows who needs a dispel and removes debuffs in the order you set.

  • GargulCompatible

    Loot tools: GDKP auctions, soft reserves and rolls.

How they compare

Deadly Boss Mods and BigWigs cover the same bosses: use the one your raid uses, and only one.

Gargul runs GDKP auctions, soft reserves and rolls; RCLootCouncil runs council votes. A raid uses the one that matches its loot rules.

Setting them up

  • Update your boss mod before raid night: boss timers change with patches.
  • Ask your raid leader which boss mod and loot addon the raid uses.
