New addons

Ive been browsing the net last few nights and came across a fewaddons id heard of before but never used.

Power Auras Classic.
http://www.wowinterface.com/downloads/info8579-PowerAurasClassic.html.

Id seen a relly good blog post with the addon parts 1&2 of BloodArrows Blog
part 1 - http://bloodarrowswowblog.blogspot.com/2009/03/bloodarrows-survival-hunter-interface.html
part 2 - http://bloodarrowswowblog.blogspot.com/2009/03/bloodarrows-survival-hunter-interface_07.html

amazing addon when configured.

if you have any issues with this addon give me a shout is taken me ages to get to the point where i understand it.

Note: Also on part 2 go into the comments. Bloodarrow has very kindly put his exported code strings into the comments. All you have to do is download the addon from wowinterface. type /powa, press import and copy and paste the string from the comments. I did and they are great and work fine.
But im BM, you say. Yup i am, but i've made power Auras for Quick shots, FI, Rapid Fire etc and when Duel Spec comes out ill be BM/SV

if you want the code strings for the ones i use put a comment on and i will
so far im using auras for:
Aspect of the Viper
Quick Shots
Ferocious Insp
Rapid Fire
and all of Bloodarrows (hunter's Mark and Serpent sting) with Exp and LnL for when i go SV.
A really good addon i would recommend to everyone.

amazing again saw this on Bloodarrows blog and tbh not alot was said about it so i went investigating and found for hunters this youtube vid that really helped my out on how to configure this addon

I had to watch this quite a few times before i understood everything and again if you want any help i will do my best, just post on the comments.
I have both addons running. OMG i love em. I wouldn't do with out them now.

I went into NAx 25 man last night for the last two bosses and i was top dmg on both fights. I dont put this down to just having the addons installed but the animations and sound triggers really made me more aware of when abilities where ready or out like Serpent Sting, my shot rotation became smoother and the AotV aura really made me aware of when viper was on. The addon Viper Notify is good but it doesnt show you Viper is on, only that when you reach the threshold of your mana pool (usually 92%), however, if you reach it and continue to have AtoV on it wont warn you again. The pulsing blue aura really makes you more aware of it.

2 really good addons to add to your arsenal tho both are very difficult to get to grips with to start with. Persevere with them and youll find them as effective as i have.
