Best Addons for WoW Classic
Addons are an important part of WoW's gameplay, demonstrating the dedication and passion of the community to the game. Addons have been recently in the spotlight recently with the
controversy about ClassicLFG
and other discussions around the limitations of the addon API in Classic. With addons being so important and so many players talking about them, we prepared a list of addons that you can install ahead of time in your Classic client, so you are ready to go the moment the servers are live.
Inside you will find our recommendations for many different categories of addons. On top of that, our
Class Guides
have been updated with more information on addons.

WoW Classic Leveling Guides and Recommended Quest Zones
Leveling in Classic WoW is very different from Battle for Azeroth, with no dynamically-scaling zones in Kalimdor or Eastern Kingdoms. To help you decided where to level, we put together Classic WoW leveling route guides with zone recommendations!
In these guides, you'll learn about notable rewards, environmental terrain, mob density, and chance of encountering PvP in every zone. We also group each zone by level range and provide recommendations on which are the most optimal or convenient for each race.
Check out our
Alliance Leveling Guide
and
Horde Leveling Guides
