Ugh, for the millionth time, addons are NOT mods! They cannot modify gameplay. They cannot enable botting and/or hacking. Please STOP spreading misinformation. Botting WILL happen with or without addons.

The claim that addons = hacking is based purely out of ignorance.

I have around 20'ish. I recently had an issue with the game. Every time I tried to log in, I got the message... "An Error has occurred" Nothing more then that. After talking back and forth with Devs, and no help, I started working on it myself. I disabled all my add-ons and low and behold.... walah the game worked. I had to narrow it down to see what one it was. It was a provisioning add-on that had me going nuts. Hope this info helps someone if they get the same issue.

I need some addons in this game to preserve my sanity. Whoever came up with the guildstores as they are should be fired or atleast wear some ridiculously uncomfortable pants for a while.

I have 25+, despite not using many addons in other games. ESO's UI is too minimal for me, and it doesn't do everything I want it to, particularly in regards to banking/storing/selling.

Primarily, my addons are focused around guild store searching, tracking prices averages, automatically deposting and withdrawing items with profiles set for each alt, and spam blocking. I have a few random ones too, like LootDrop, to make looting easier, Librarian, to stole my books to read later, a quest tools addon for easier, more efficient and multiple quest tracking, and the minimap addon. (And nothing for min/maxing or combat, just basic stuff!)

The banking stuff is probably most important to me, because between Bank Manager and a handful of others, I can manage my inventory in roughly 5-10 minutes, instead of the 30-40+ it was taking my early on.

Thanks Zenimax for releasing such a fully-featured API at launch, and I mean that!
