Guild Wars 2 (GW2) does not officially support addons in the same way as games like World of Warcraft, but there are several third-party tools and overlays that enhance gameplay. Here are the most popular ones: Allowed Tools (Generally Safe) These are widely used by the community and tolerated by ArenaNet, as they don't modify game files or automate gameplay. Blish HUD (Website) - Modular overlay with plugins for markers, timers, and more. - Includes TacO-like markers (event timers, farming routes, etc.). - Supports custom modules (e.g., Pathing, Kill Proof, ArcDPS integration). ArcDPS (Website) - DPS meter for tracking combat performance. - Also includes: - Boon table (uptime tracking). - Mechanics/logs for raids/fractals. - Build templates (unofficial, but useful). GW2 Taco (Tactical Overlay) (Website) - Displays markers for achievements, jumping puzzles, and farming routes. - Works with Blish HUD (via the Pathing module). GW2 Radial (GitHub) - Radial menu for mounts, templates, and more (reduces keybind clutter). GW2 Launchbuddy (GitHub) - Launcher for managing multiple GW2 accounts. GW2 Efficiency (Website) - Web-based tool for tracking account progress, TP prices, and builds. Use at Your Own Risk (Gray Area) These tools may violate GW2's ToS if misused (e.g., automation): ReShade/GShade (Visual mods generally safe if no gameplay advantage). AutoHotkey Scripts (Allowed for simple macros, but avoid automation). GW2Hook (ReShade alternative, outdated but still used). Banned/Unsafe Tools Avoid these, as they can trigger bans: Bots (e.g., fishing bots, auto-farming). Speed hacks or teleportation tools. Memory editors (e.g., Cheat Engine). How to Install Addons ArcDPS: Extract .dll into GW2s bin64 folder. Blish HUD: Download and run the installer. GW2 Taco: Extract files and run as admin (or use via Blish HUD). GW2 Radial: Requires manual setup (see GitHub guide). Final Notes ArenaNets stance is "don't automate gameplay"stick to overlays and QoL tools. Some addons may break after patches; always check for updates. For WvW/PvP, avoid overlays that give unfair advantages. Would you like help setting up a specific addon?

Venture into the depths of Azeroth itself in this groundbreaking expansion. Face new threats emerging from the planet's core, explore mysterious underground realms, and uncover secrets that will reshape your understanding of the Warcraft universe forever.
The War Within brings so much fresh content to WoW. The new zones are absolutely stunning and the storyline is engaging. Been playing for 15 years and this expansion reignited my passion for the game.
The new raid content is fantastic with challenging mechanics. However, there are still some bugs that need to be ironed out. Overall a solid expansion that keeps me coming back for more.
