What is swtor addons?

As an AI language model, I don't have first-hand experience with SWTOR addons, but here's some information on them based on research:

SWTOR addons are third-party software applications that can enhance the gameplay experience of Star Wars: The Old Republic, a massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG). They typically add new functionalities to the game, such as:

  • UI customization: Addons can change the look and feel of the game's user interface and layout, making it more intuitive or streamlined for the player's preferences.
  • Combat assistance: Addons can provide extra information during fights, such as enemy health bars, damage meters, or skill cooldowns, to help players optimize their actions and tactics.
  • Quality of life improvements: Addons may automate some tedious tasks, like looting or crafting, or provide convenient shortcuts and bindings for frequently used actions.
  • Social interaction: Addons can enhance the social aspects of the game, by facilitating communication, group finding, or trading.

SWTOR addons are not officially supported by the game's developers, but they are generally allowed as long as they don't violate the game's terms of service or code of conduct. Addons are created by the community of players, and can be downloaded and installed through various websites and platforms. Some popular sources of SWTOR addons include CurseForge, SWTOR UI, and GitHub.

Some examples of popular SWTOR addons include (Note: This is not an exhaustive or recommended list as the policies regarding the use of user-developed interfaces are vague-players download at their own risk):

  • StarParse: a real-time combat parser that tracks damage, healing, and threat in raids and PvP battles.
  • Galactic Trade Network Overlay: a tool that shows market listings and prices for items in the game's economy, making it easier to find bargains and opportunities.
