Try HERE. It is a whole list of WotLK compatible mods. I have been using Dominos which works great in the latest release.

It's comments like this that make me think blizzard needs to screen their beta testers. The quests in beta are rediculously easy! There are 3 quests that I can think of that aren't completely laid out for you and you have to think a bit, or they are bugged. One tells you to go to a mine in "fairshire" and it's possible to get it before the quest that leads you to fairshire, which dictates on it where to go, another doesn't have a way of safely finishing the quest without dying, and the other is a bug from a BC quest we all already know...

Quests are easily set up so you can skim through for three things: the objective, the location and the direction. This does not mean you shouldn't have to explore a little bit - how much can you really enjoy the game if you are simply reading what the coordinates are and going straight there, avoiding all mobs on the way, you are actually going to level slower, run out of quests faster.. and how much fun can it really be??

Blizzard asked you to test their new content to ensure that all the terrain, npc's, quest lines, mobs, etc. are working correctly. When you start adding all those mods onto it, especially as unstable as the beta servers are, when bugs occur I am sure someone who can't figure out how to do these quests is not going to be able to decipher between an ingame bug due to the beta or something due to all the third party modifications you have added.

You're SO right !
Beta is excatly to test if the things is doable with ANY healp at all !
I would say that you should click the little Blizzard link in your Qlog and report the Quest for bugs , that they dont explain what to do .
Go go go - think on your own !

The point of a beta is to test for instance quest texts. If those texts don't explain themselves, then the quest is wrong and you should report this. If you can't handle wow in it's 'naked' state, then jeez, get a life, try to solve something for yourself without holding mom and dad's hands....

I really do hope they start working on mods ASAP. Being in my beta myself and doing the quests are quite difficult. It's not more of the challenge but understanding the quests. Go south/east and talk to . Where the hell is he? They don't even say what city sometimes they just point you in the direction where your suppose to go. I really do feel sorry for the people at launch. Us beta guys are lucky because we will know where every quest is.

QuestHelper
Extended Quest Log
Informer
QuestAnnounce
Cartographer (not the google edition which really sucks and is quite annoying)
Rating Buster

Those mods are a must have. If they're not ready for launch you'll have a hard time questing because the lands are HUGE compared to outlands. I don't mean huge as in mass but the areas in general are huge. Think of twice the size of nagrand.

I'm not sure modifying the system files is desirable when testing a beta.
