Tanking is about holding threat and surviving the big hits. These show your group's threat and the boss's next ability.

How we chose

  • Its current release ships for WoW TBC (or partly, as noted).
  • Helps you hold threat or plan your defensive cooldowns.

The picks

  • ThreatClassic2Compatible

    Threat for everyone on your target; tank mode warns when someone gets close to yours.

  • Deadly Boss Mods (DBM)Compatible

    Timers for boss abilities, so your defensive cooldowns are ready for the big hits.

  • BigWigs BossmodsCompatible

    The same job as Deadly Boss Mods, lighter and modular: use the one your group uses.

  • Details! Damage MeterCompatible

    Damage taken per fight, to see what hit you and when.

  • WeakAurasCompatible

    Build displays for your defensive cooldowns and the debuffs you watch on the boss.

How they compare

Use one boss mod, Deadly Boss Mods or BigWigs, not both.
