Description

🌟 About HoT Light

HoT Light is a lightweight, visual overlay addon for World of Warcraft Classic Era that makes it easier for healers to keep track of their active Healing over Time (HoT) spells on friendly players.

Whenever you cast Renew, Rejuvenation, or Regrowth on a friendly target, a subtle glowing overlay appears below their nameplate to help you see at a glance who is actively being healed.
