The Addon Junkie

In this video, I demonstrate an optimized rotation for protection paladins. The rotation is commonly referred to as the 969 or 96969 rotation, named after the alternating 9 and 6 second cooldowns that the rotation was built around. All of the 9 second cooldowns are now 8 second cooldowns, so maybe we should start calling it the 868 or 86868 rotation
There is also a brief review of the PallyPower addon, which many (myself included) consider to be required for any raiding paladin of any spec. Also featured is the previously reviewed EventHorizon timer addon, which very cleanly illustrates the efficiency of such rotations.

We also give a warm welcome to our newest addon junkie Magrath. Magrath has just joined the Addon Junkie team and will be primarily reviewing the addons of the UI mod / enhancement world, where folks with cluttered interfaces like mine obviously fear to tread. Magrath has an impeccably clean interface that is a joy to look at, and I look forward to watching his videos break it down into its individual elements for our understanding. Welcome to the team, Magrath

And now, without further ado: the video (after the break).
