DotWatch

DotWatch is a minimalist World of Warcraft addon for tracking your DoTs (Damage over Time spells) on your last targeted enemy. Built for Affliction Warlocks in WoW Classic, it provides a clean visual display to keep you informed and efficient in combat.

✨ Features

Tracks DoTs you cast:
- Siphon Life
- Corruption
- Curse of Agony
- Immolate
Only shows the last valid non-friendly target (even if deselected)
Shows countdown timers for DoTs with less than 8 seconds left
Displays enemy health and mana/rage/energy bars
Clean, centered UI with pastel color-coded DoTs
Performance-optimized: updates only while in combat
