I'm returning to AC after an absence of 2+ years. LifetankX seems to be the hotness for combat, but what else is there that would be familiar to me or useful? Thanks!

There are no "essential" plugins. Returning players should learn how to play the game for themselves. Once you've re-learned how to play the game, then you can figure out what plugin's will help you in the daily activities.

Alinco and AC+ are probably by biggest 2 choices for use. AC+ does some handy things for you, and alinco is good for looting. My next choice for best plugin would probably have to be goarrow for it's routing help. I think I could live with just those 3 plugins. Though combat macro plugins are handy for those long days spent in dungeons, as it's nice to be able to chat while you're killing, but it's not like you have to have a combat macro. So my suggestion for most needed plugins currently are AC+, Go Arrow, and Alinco.

I'd add Alinco BUffs (for a self buffing toon) and Tings if you have a tradesgimp.

if you run quests mini-map is probably one of the single must favorite plugin... you can pretty much see which way you want to go... and skunk vision is incredible for getting around mountains and water... all others are good too but these two have saved me massive amounts of time in game!

AC+ Mini map is amazing... I love that plugin.

And Skunk Vision is a requirement for running around the landscape. Makes finding those passes over the mountains so much easier.
