Forever Seamless Threat Plates

A seamless, Blizzard-style threat indicator for World of Warcraft Forever.

Forever Seamless Threat Plates enhances the default Blizzard nameplates by dynamically changing enemy health bar colors based on your threat status.

Designed to blend naturally into the World of Warcraft Forever interface, the addon preserves the original nameplate appearance while providing clear, immediate visual feedback about which enemies you're tanking and which ones may be changing targets.
