I am looking to try some of the UI add ons. Is using Curse safe or how would you recommend getting them? Also which Addons should I look at first?



I've never used Curse but I can vouch for Carbonite. I love the maps (they essentially work like Google Maps).


http://www.carboniteaddon.com/


What server are you on?



This is the first I have heard of Carbonite, tested it out this morning, still finding my way around this addon but from what I have seen so far it's a keeper!


Thanks for posting about it.

The only negative I have about Carbonite pretty much applies to every add on: Just about every major patch breaks it. Fortunately, the devs are pretty quick to update it. Bookmark that link and you can go back and download the latest version any time there's a major (or sometimes minor) change.

Vuh'do
Fubar
Bartender
DHUD (I hate playing without the Arc HUD now...)
Auctionator
Recount
Need to Know
Mapster & Cromulent (These 2 together is basically a lightweight alternative to Carbonite for me.)
Deadly Boss Mods

Those are my most important ones that I can think of off the top of my head......

If you have an authenticator, you should be fine. I have never had a problem with Curse.

Can I get $15/month for not playing them?

The curse client itself is fine to use. The problem with it, what 2+ years ago now, was that an addon got a keylogger in it and it was auto-updated through the curse client. I haven't heard of this happening for a while as I am sure curse is very active in checking submitted addons. I use the premium curse client and have had 0 issue.

I use their add on manager and have done so since it became the only real game in town without any issues. Then again I am also on a Mac

You should check out SpartanUI I like it better than either of those.

I did, I have it saved to favorites for that very reason, figured there will be a big update for it after Tuesday.

I started off on Titan, switched to Fu, and since just gave up when Fu stopped working.
