Mod authors have already been hard at work to get addons working for The Burning Crusade Classic. Below we’ve compiled a list of working addons currently working with the prepatch. These should be considered “in progress” and there may be bugs.

Good addons can go a long way towards making your time in World of Warcraft Classic easier. Whether it’s simple UI addons, or multi-featured raid addons that tell you when to dodge a boss attack, our list should help you find the addon you’re looking for. As of the time of writing, the below-listed mods should work in the TBC prepatch. Make sure you’re downloading the Burning Crusade Classic version of these mods, as some of them also have retail versions.

Here are the TBC Classic addons that work, by category:

All-In-One and Convenience Addons

• CTMod – This modular addon lets you customize everything from hotbars and buff timers, to statistic recording and an expense history, plus a lot more.
• Leatrix Plus – This addon provides lots of automation, including some nice features like auto-selling of junk, resizing of chat, and the ability to automatically accept or block a variety of invites/requests.
• idTweaks – A collection of addons that automates some of the UI, and adds some QoL changes to the minimap, chat, and the rest of the UI.
• FasterLooting – Just like it sounds! With this addon you can click once to loot a mob without stopping.
• AutoRoll – Lets you set up automatic need, greed, or pass responses to any loot rolls.

Questing Addons

• Questie – The classic questing companion works in the TBC Beta! If you want to see where to go for quests instead of reading the description and wandering around, you want this addon. Join the Discord, agree to the rules, and head to the download-beta-questie channel and follow the directions to get started.
• Wide Quest Log – This neat little addon simply doubles the Quest Log UI window size so you can finally see all your quests at once.
• TotalQuestXP – This addon has the fantastic ability to let you know how much XP you’re going to gain once you turn in all your currently completable quests. No more getting back to town only to realize you needed to kill a couple more mobs for that next level!

• Tofu – This neat addon turns the quest dialogue window into a less obtrusive dialogue bubble.
• WeakAuras2 – A customizable graphical addon that lets you change how auras, cooldowns, totems, and other important info are displayed and indicated.

• EZDownRank – This classic addon for healers gives you a nice set of buttons that helps you decide what spells to cast on your party members, and then cast them.

Info Addons

• 5SecondRule – This addon tracks the Five Second Rule, which refers to the 5 seconds needed for mana regen to resume after spending mana. It will then display your next mana tick if you aren’t full mana. Good for knowing when you’ll be able to cast that next spell!
• SinStats – A moveable stats frame that displays important info like attack power, crit%, and more. Here’s what it looks like!

• Details! Damage Meter – “Most powerful, reliable, handsome, damage meter for World of Warcraft.“.
• Mik Scrolling Battle Text – This addon separates and scrolls incoming and outgoing damage and heals in separate, configurable windows. It also recolors unit names, damage by type, and includes some other nice features too.

Miscellaneous Addons
