Tank Nameplates
Clean, information-rich custom nameplates for every role, spec and class in World of Warcraft. Built with tanks in mind, but designed to help anyone: DPS, healers, PvP players, questers and collectors alike. Fully compatible with Mists of Pandaria Classic and Retail.
Features
- Unified Health & Mana bar inside a single, compact container
- Player debuffs on the left of the health bar, with compact timers (1H / 30M / 45s) and a radial cooldown swipe
- Cast bar with correct fill/drain direction (like Blizzard's default) plus remaining time
- Smart coloring that reads the fight for you:
- Lilac = the unit is on YOU (secure aggro for tanks, "it's attacking me" for everyone else)
- Red = in combat but not on you (perfect for taunts, interrupts, rescues and pick-ups)
- Orange = hostile but not in combat yet
- White = tapped by another player or group (no loot for you, don't waste your cooldowns)
- Raid target markers displayed above the nameplate, never hidden by the bar
- Respects the game world: calm, neutral, friendly and non-PvP-flagged units keep the default Blizzard nameplate (Questie icons included)
- Minimap button with drag-to-move and hide option
- Auto-disables when Plater, ElvUI, KuiNameplates or TidyPlates are active to prevent conflicts
- All settings accessible via the minimap icon or the Interface Options panel
Useful for every spec
- Tanks: instant aggro read (lilac vs red) and tap awareness while pulling
- DPS: know when a mob is tapped (white) so you don't burn cooldowns for nothing, and track your own debuffs on the target
- Healers: see at a glance who is in combat (red) and who is being attacked (lilac)
- PvP: enemy players only get custom plates while PvP-flagged; markers and debuffs still tracked
Configuration
- Left-click the minimap icon to open Settings
- Right-click the minimap icon for quick options (Hide Icon, etc.)
- Drag the minimap icon to reposition it around the map
