Alright, I'm only 50 at the moment. I've noticed that I don't use Tank Addons except Recount...which i keep messing up(P.S Link to a guide for it?).

But...yea the subject explains it...Any addons you suggest I use. I tend to get lost when searching through the addons(Yes, I'm still a newb/noob). If links provide how to use it, then i'll go google it if you don't want to go through the trouble in linking them. All i ask for is that you provide a brief description of what it is/how it works, por favor.

Thanks!

By no means am i an authority on the subject, but ill give it a go. These are ones i use curse links provided, some are hosted on the guild website
First the holy trinity

Everyone, not only tanks, needs a threat meter, I use omen

Recount on curse should give any tips or tricks you may need:

If you plan on raiding at all, a boss mods is a must, i think the guild standard is Bigwigs

For Cat Dps i use feral by night addon to suggest a move, it takes everything into consideration(rip and rake timers, when to FB keeping Savage roar up, mangle debuff) It also suggests moves for bear, but the move list for bear tanking isnt complicated enough to really need it

And last one is once you get into tanking, you like to see who's hitting you for what, so a combat text helps, I just started using  MK battle text

Other than that, i dont use anything tanking oriented
