Description
Enemy Totem Marker
Never miss an enemy totem again. Enemy Totem Marker places the totem's icon above every enemy totem's nameplate, with a lifetime countdown and an element-colored border so you can tell at a glance what just dropped and how long it lasts.
Built for Mists of Pandaria Classic (5.5.4).
Features
- Icon on the nameplate — every enemy totem is marked with its real spell icon (or a generic totem icon for unknown ones).
- Lifetime countdown — known totems show a timer counting down their duration, so you know exactly when Grounding, Capacitor, Tremor, etc. expire.
- Element-colored border — the marker border is tinted by the totem's element (Fire / Earth / Water / Air), for instant recognition.
- Per-totem icon size — make the totems you care about (Capacitor, Grounding, Spirit Link…) bigger than the rest.
- Scaling timer — the countdown font scales together with the icon.
- Fully configurable in-game — a tracked-totem list you can edit yourself.
How to use
- Install and log in — the addon enables the "show enemy totems" nameplate option automatically.
- Enemy totems are now marked on their nameplates.
- Open the options panel to customize: ESC → Options → AddOns →

/tm config.
