Description

Quest Nameplates

Quest Nameplates shows your quest progress right on the nameplates of quest mobs, so you no longer have to mouse over every mob to see what you still need.

Features

  • Progress on nameplates – e.g. 0/6 on every mob that belongs to one of your active quests. The position is fully adjustable.
  • Objective icons – a sword for kill objectives, a bag for loot objectives.
  • Multiple objectives – up to 3 objectives per mob are shown side by side.
  • Your own progress – numbers always come from your own quest log, even when grouped with players on the same quest.
  • Completed objectives disappear automatically.
  • Works with any nameplate addon – default Blizzard nameplates, Plater, EllesmereUI and others.
  • No dependencies – no libraries or other addons required.

Options

Open the options with /qn opt or by clicking the minimap button.

  • Enable / disable the addon
  • Move the display up/down and left/right (±120 px) to fit your nameplate addon
  • Scale, text size and icon size
  • Live preview on your current target
  • Show / hide the minimap button (drag it to move it around the minimap)
