RetzerPlates

A nameplate addon for World of Warcraft: Midnight that looks great the moment you install it.

RetzerPlates is designed to be pixel-perfect out of the box — no spending hours tweaking settings. Install, /reload, and you're done. The addon auto-detects your resolution and UI scale, then sizes everything to match. Every element is built from scratch for crisp, clean visuals at any display setup.

Features

Health bars with class coloring, reaction coloring, and tapped unit support
Absorb shields overlay using Midnight's heal prediction API
Cast bars with spell icon, interruptible/non-interruptible coloring, interrupt source display, and fade animations

Aura tracking — debuffs and buffs with cooldown spirals, duration timers, and stack counts. Uses Blizzard's own nameplate aura filtering to show only meaningful buffs/debuffs

Execute indicators — auto-detects execute thresholds per class/spec/talents (Warrior, Hunter, Mage, Priest, Paladin, Warlock, Rogue, Death Knight, Monk)

Target arrows — chevron indicators on your current target
Raid markers — displays raid target icons on nameplates

Auto-Scaling

Sizes are automatically adjusted on first install based on your display. Defaults are tuned for 1440p at pixel-perfect UI scale — the addon scales proportionally for 1080p, 4K, or any other setup. You can recalculate at any time from the Profiles settings tab.

Configuration

Type /rp in-game to open the settings panel. Every feature is configurable — sizes, colors, visibility, fonts, and more. Full profile support with create, copy, delete, and reset.
