certain tiers of raid content in WoW were absolutely impossible without mods. doing hardmode/heroic raids without mods was basically acknowledging you were going to spend hours/days/weeks/months of your life wasting your entire group's time and holding them back because you keep dying, thereby unable to actually do your job. i raided for a day or two after each major patch without mods simply because you had to wait for the mod creator to update it before it would work again. it was still possible in SOME cases, but nearly impossible in others.

nobody was going to complete heroic ragnaros without mods. nobody was going to complete Alone in the Darkness or Firefighter without mods. nobody was going to complete vashj or kaelthas without mods. mods were the law of the land in WoW simply because raid content was so difficult that it was necessary.

i'll repeat myself again: having a mod telling you to watch out for something doesn't actually mean you're going to react fast enough or respond properly. especially with combat that's fast paced and full of multitasking.

this game doesn't have that level of difficulty and hasn't needed mods. even on the stuff that IS considered 'difficult' in this game (garuda/ifrit x/rivenroad hard) i haven't needed mods to perform at a higher enough level to clear this content in a couple hours or days after patch release.

but in spite of having never experienced WoW and not understanding exactly how the mod work in relation to the raid encounters, you jump to the conclusion that having the mod basically equates to autopiloting your way to a win and that a person must be completely helpless without it. my experience in both games seems to directly contradict this, however, and i'm asking you to explain how, if your logic stands, this could be possible.
