⚠️ Important notice - Patch 12.0.5

Patch 12.0.5 broke this addon.
The WoW API event UNIT_SPELLCAST_SUCCEEDED no longer exposes the spell ID needed by this addon, so Nameplate GCD Tracker currently does not work anymore.

I’m trying to find a workaround, but for now the addon should be considered temporarily broken. :(

Thank you for your patience and support.

Nameplate GCD Tracker is a lightweight WoW addon for Midnight (12.0.1+) that enhances your UI with a clean and efficient nameplate GCD tracker.

This nameplate addon shows the last GCD spell used directly on enemy nameplates, acting as a reliable enemy spell tracker for PvP. It is designed as a simple and performant WeakAura Enemy Nameplate GCD replacement, without unnecessary complexity.
