I found out not a lot of people used addons in ESO which simply left me shocked. I thought it was more of a reason of not knowing how to install them or being afraid to use them as a sense of "modding is illegal and addons are therefore illegal." Whatever the case may be, I can assure you no addon as of NOW is illegal; there are hacks, mods, etc. to this game already, yes, but that's a whole different realm of issues. Addons are not to be mixed with such in any way shape and or form.


1.) [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
This addon mods the GUI (game unit interface) to show the player the damage, type of damage, they're outputting and taking. Even shows heals, how many are getting healed, the list of amazing features this addon creates is ridiculous and an ABSOLUTE NECESSITY FOR ANYONE. I had no idea when I first played ESO that an attack actually has 3 phases to it. Light, Partial and Heavy, not only that but the damage actually does vary and the crit chance and values of said crit! TFC SHOULD BE IMPLEMENTED IN THE GAME.

2.) [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
This addon is another yet again that has more features than I can possibly ever list and keep this short, from clocks to countdowns on trait researching, your horse feeder, and SO MUCH MORE! All of which can be customized to boot!

3.) [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
Counters are useful as a PvP counter for potions, food and spells, it always can be valued even in a PvE situation. Fairly new addon, but effective.

4.) [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
However anyone gets by with the default search engine for the Guild Stores is beyond me. This addon makes life so much easier searching for items YOU want. It's still a very simple addon though and not 100% working, but as of now. It will save you SO MUCH time!

5.) [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] + [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
= ESO Version of WoW's Gatherer Mod on steroids. If you're a farmer, or a crafter you will absolutely need this addon, it shows you even on the minimap addon the locations of your previously gathered materials in the world, INCLUDING CHESTS!

Now granted this is supposed to be one mod after the other, these all are map mods that would save time to simply mark down as one, and count to me as such. Those skyshards, lorebooks, and treasure map chest were a pain to find, these will make your life thousands of times over easier!

7.) [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
There was an original minimap addon for ESO, but it was majorly flawed with the inability to zoom out or in on it, and it wouldn't track your group members. This one will.

8.) [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
There used to be a bug in ESO which allowed you to cancel your casted spells and auto bash/attack and barely burn stamina. Someone decided for a better approach and a legitment one that oddly wasn't already in the game, a cancel cast key bind. So now to pop out of that leap, heal, AoE, etc. now it's just a tap away! Can't say how much this helps in PvP or PvE!!

These are all the trade skill tools you'll ever need. From one showing all the recipes you know and don't in provisioning, to alchemy, to even trait knowledge all in a single click or two! It's insane how useful these are and all of them can be called an absolute MUST! However these addons passed the ESO TOS is honestly beyond me, THAT'S HOW GOOD THEY ARE! Don't fret or worry though, like I just said, they DID pass the TOS meaning they are all perfectly legal!

For those farmers, DKs or Templar tanks, or really anyone.. Check your armor degradation and it's rarity by simply opening up your inventory now. Extremely useful for those who are playing fast paced instead of slower.



Noob's Heart Installation Guide:
Now to install addons you have two options, manual or program. You can either use [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] or use [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] . All three are reliable, but myself I like to use Manual.

Did I miss an addon you like or love? Well tell me in this thread and I'll review it myself and maybe it'll get added to the list. Links are helpful!





Originally I had made a website, just a temporary one as a means to group every site I loved into one as a means to get more people to see it and join my guild. That failed, but I had one idea I loved and it was the "Resources" page of the site, it basically tossed a person around multiple sites that could help them out. All the meanwhile it provides a brief description to what each site would show. So if you want to see that, and really get on board or even give me links to add to it, I'm eager to hear in this thread.
