Spellalerter Simple yet very important add-on that will inform you of enemy players casts, i.e. if a opposing team mage is casting polymorph the add-on will put a warning on your screen saying (name) is casting polymorph at (name of his target). You can adjust it to show warnings for any spell in game.

Grid This is great for healers it will show you how and what your party members are getting affected by, also if they are in need of healing and will also show you if they are going to be recieveing a heal soon(like another healer casting a heal so is saves you on over healing).
