Some of that is because WoW’s default UI is in desperate need of an overhaul, given that modern principles of usability weren’t pervasive 16 years ago. All-in-one packages such as ElvUI change everything from the minimap and spell bars, to damage and healing numbers, and even the chat logs. Today players tweak nearly every part of the game’s interface. Others provided small, discreet windows with additional displays, whether they were for specific Classic WoW classes, or to track an item that was obscured in the default UI. Some offered a svelte way to report additional information across the top or bottom of the screen. In vanilla WoW, player additions to how WoW looked and gave them feedback and information were very limited. Looking for some great Classic WoW addons? One of the features that has changed dramatically since World of Warcraft launched nearly 16 years ago is how much players are willing to alter the basic user interface to streamline the experience and eradicate even the smallest inconveniences.
