    I think I wrote a blog post about this a couple years ago, but here is the most recent set of mods that I'm using. If you have any questions, feel free to ask! Most of them are hopefully somewhat clear as to their function from their names. You can also always look them up on Curse.

    @rorie: I'm glad to see I'm usuing some of the same you are. Separately, I'm also glad to see people have kept SpartanUI alive. Still my favorite WoWUI.

    How obtrusive do you find OMen Threat meter to be? I've been trying basic threat bar which seems to be ok, but sometimes it's in the way so I move it, but then I don't see it, and it's kind of pointless.

    Also, I heard that Gatherer has had some issues since WoD with performance hits, and so I downloaded Gathermate when I joined back in. Have you had any issues with Gatherer?

    I've actually got the exact same question regarding Omen Threat Meter as @silver-streak, been trying a few different threat management mods and have yet to find one I really like. Omen hasn't been updated for so very long that I'm somewhat worried about pushing it. Last thing you want when raiding is getting drowned in error messages. How has your experience been with it?

    Also, do you know if there are alternatives to MobInfo? The idea is spectacular, but I hear it only works for up to lvl 85 mobs.

    @silver-streak: @do_the_manta_ray: Omen still works amazing for me; never heard any complaints about the raids I've been in. I guess some people are saying that it's broken in the Legion pre-patch, but I don't think I've done any five-mans since then. It seems to work with pet classes, though? Dunno, if it's not being maintained then I guess I'll find something new.

    I haven't actually used Gatherer too much lately; it might be disabled. You didn't need to do much resource farming in WoD thanks to your garrison farm/mine, so I'm not sure what's going on with it.

    I didn't even realize Mobinfo was so far out of date. I mostly have it installed as a "neat to have" thing but I rarely look at the output. Might be time to uninstall, I guess!

    I'd swap Omen to Skada or Details! addon. Using either of those would also let you ditch Recount, that addon has been nothing but trouble for a while in raids. :)

    @rorie This has probably been asked, and I apologize for that, but are your streams archived anywhere on GB? I never catch them live, but I'd be up for vicariously playing WoW through your streams. Thanks!
