I couldn't resist.

Playing a shadow priest just does not work for me. I get the urge to be a healer, and then trying to create a shadow priest just ends up pointless. It's not discipline this time though! I'm actually trying holy!

I got distracted though, and started messing around with my addons...and, well...

I, um...went a little overboard.
The ones you can see are IceHUD, X-Perl, Skada, Omen, Bartender, Tomtom, and Decursive. Maybe others. I also have Weak Auras and Halo Pro all loaded and ready for when I get things that I'll need them for.

What brought on this drastic UI change, you ask?

I was trying to heal a dungeon. And Healbot messed up on me. Mid-dungeon, it changed all the spells to Monk spells, so I was trying to heal and couldn't. So, I decided to re-do everything, and make Healbot obsolete for me!

I like addons. They make me happy. Don't start telling me to use macros. I like my shiny new UI!

What Addons do you rely on?

I was going through my Curse client today to update my addons, and this question came to my head. What addons do people rely on?
Personally, I love Bartender, although I don't find it necessary. The only time I find myself really needing it is when I need to get my glasses prescription updated and I need to make the buttons for the UI bigger...I like Omen well enough, although I don't often go in dungeons, so aggro doesn't really matter to me much. I like SilverDragon, mainly because it lets me know to be careful since there's a rare about. I do, however, find it annoying when I'm in a party with someone who happens to be taking a flight path somewhere and then all of a  sudden, SilverDragon lets me know that they saw a rare, and I panic, thinking that it's right next to me or something. Of course, with my luck, it's usually a giant spider that they see...
To be entirely honest, the only addon that I absolutely rely on is HealBot. I love HealBot. It's amazing. But even that, of course, is only turned on when I'm healing.
What about you? Are there any addons that you absolutely cannot play without?
