Beyond core features such as PvE, Unit Frames, and everything of the like sits the most important aspect of World of Warcraft, spells.

Without spells you can't do anything that the MMORPG has to offer—WoW Classic included. Spells are the crucial part that allows you to do almost anything in the game, kill bosses in dungeons and raids for loot which turns into gear for your character, attacking other players for PvP combat, you name it.

However, sometimes it can be difficult to tell what spell to use, in particular, whether or not you can use it due to it being on cooldown. That's where an addon like OmniCC comes in to help.

Here's an explanation of what OmniCC is, as well as how to download and install it in WoW Classic.

KNOW YOUR COOLDOWNS: OmniCC helps you track your spells' cooldowns

In short, OmniCC is a cooldown tracker. What the addon does is simple, it adds text to items, spells, and abilities that are on cooldown. Once the timer is finished and there are no more numbers hovering whatever is on cooldown it'll be ready for use—easy as that.

This makes gameplay more fluid and overall less tedious. Apart from other addons, maybe even whole UI changers like ElvUI, OmniCC is minimal in the grand scheme of things as it doesn't completely take over any specific aspect of the game.
