These mods keep getting bandied about and I really know nothing about them, but I'd like to.
Deadly Boss Mods
Grid
Healbot
Clique
PerfectRaid
I downloaded Grid once before but I didn't get it. Funny little squares with truncated names? I was lost...
Can someone please explain each of these mods in detail for me? Yes I know I coud look at them all on curse.com or wowinterface.com but I think I'd understand better if someone just up and explained each one to me as if I was a complete idiot. (Seeing as, when it comes to these addons, I am a complete idiot.
I'll even write a template for you to patronise my idiocy with XD.
The "Treat Donny Like He Has an IQ of 30" Questionnaire
What is the addon called?
What functions and features does the addon have?
What benefit does this addon hold for me, a holy priest?
How is it used in-game?
Show me a screenshot, baby!

basically they are a mod that organizes your party/raid into nice neat space saving but (depending on how you configure it) inforation packed frames you can target with and heal with
clique just allows you to bind heals to things like shift right clicking on a frame.
watching these should give you an idea of what they are
grid
grid again
clique
healbot

Okay so what I gleaned from those videos was:
Healbot and Grid are both unit frame replacements that allow me to use mouse hotheys (or hotbuttons if you like) for healing
Clique uses the mouse hotbuttons on whatever unit frames you currently have (Pitbull 3 in my case)
Correct?

Sweet.
So how about PerfectRaid and DBM? What are they all about? PerfectRaid is just another unit frames addon right? What's unique/special about it?

I love that buff frame addon. What is it? Currently I use Satrina, it's okay but nothing special.

I would say that SBF
is
, in fact,
something
special. If you don't think it is, you don't know how to use it.

My admittedly sliightly messy UI with my SBF setup
Most of this UI is nowhere near complete, so don't rag on it. That's my quest tracker on the left. My SBF is setup to show my buffs horizontally along the top, with debuffs underneath it. Target bars are vertical (my target in this case doesn't have any debuffs, but they would normally appear directly undernerneath my rez sickness debuff).

So how about PerfectRaid and DBM?.
Deadly Boss Mods is a boss alert mod. It consists of many individual "boss modules", mini addons that are designed to trigger alert messages and timer bars for one specific raid boss each. Instance modules will be loaded and enabled when you enter the corresponding instance. In most cases only one module will be running at any given time.
really handy mod
