SpartanUI Changelog

📅 Last Month Summary

This big update brings a brand new way to customize your buffs and debuffs, letting you sort, filter, and place them exactly how you like. We fixed many errors caused by the latest game patch (12.1), especially issues where unit information was hidden or restricted. You should also notice fewer errors on your frames and tooltips, and faster login.
