Addons for ret.

After some debate and soul searching I decided to stick with ret. as the other half of a dual spec so now I want to make the most of it so that someday I can be a contributing member of a heroic party. I have been reading some guides and going out and rolling over stuff but nowhere do I see any talk about addons to help the ret. pally do the deed. So, what are some must haves and what are some nice to haves but you don't really need addons?

Omen, recount and bejewelled are all you really need DPSing, even maybe S.H.I.T. (I'm watching you MoD)

Yeah...I'll look into all those suggestions. How about recommendations on UI Bar mods? There seem to be a number of them and not sure which one(s) to try. I did download Omen, I'll check the others too.

I don't use bar mods, but I see bartender suggested a lot.
Also peggle.

Definatly get your hands on
S.H.I.T
Set your spell priority as follows: slots 1-7
HoW > CS > Judgement > DS > Consecration > Exorcism > Holy Wrath
S.H.I.T if anything will help you LEARN your rotation.
Cheers,
Hat

the only addon a pally needs is a remote so they can go back to watching tv while they play
omen/dbm is always nice to know when the "fire" is coming so you can move
recount is nice but not needed and personal placement on charts is less important than not dying and getting the job done...some people just take recount too far and it becomes a liability
bartender was nice before the in game dressing room but not all that necessary anymore

It's necessary if you're one of those tards that constantly requests meters when they could just download a damn mod themselves.

So many posts, yet no mention of OmniCC? Shame!

Just bringing this one back up for more suggestions if there are any since I am getting more in to the ret. pally then I thought I would. Originally I was using ret. as a means to gear for prot. but I am really enjoying playing ret. So now I really want to make the most out of it.
I have DL'ed most of the suggestions and played around with them and removed most. I think that the more serious I get about the game (if that ever happens) I might appreciate the more complex and adjustable addons but at this point simple is good.
I did keep what seem to be the necessary ones, Omen, OmniCC, kept recount mostly to help me judge myself and how my current gear set is doing. I still throw the numbers up in chat after a hard fight or boss just because most people (melee at least) like to see it. I was using DeadlyBossMods but just switched it out for BigWigs to take it for a test run. I will end up keeping one or the other.
That's about it for addons other than bag and item addons. I did "discover" Opie and while it isn't a ret. or dps addon I find it to be very nice in uncluttering some of the crap off my UI.

I tried pallypower and for some reason, probably because I am dumb, I couldn't really figure it out. I didn't really give it much time though. I should give it another go I guess.

I just use recount, omen, and dbm. I didn't use any at all, but decided dbm was worth it. Makes it so i don't have to pay too much attention in heroics, and sometimes in naxx too...

Pallypower and DBM are very very good things to have. Anyone who plans on joining raids should have both.

clcret or S.H.I.T.or EventHorizon, PallyPower (this should be mandatory for every paladin in every raid. I've kicked people from PuG raids before for not having it), DBM or BigWigs if you're raiding. Everything else is down to personal preference.

Yes, you should.
I predict it will be integrated somehow into the default UI soon. (VERY @#$%ing late)
