⚡ Performance & Compatibility

Blizz Nameplates+ keeps the original Blizzard nameplates instead of replacing them with a completely custom nameplate system.

Recent improvements include:

Reduced unnecessary nameplate updates
Optimized aura and castbar handling
No unnecessary permanent layout scanning
Improved compatibility with addons that modify Blizzard nameplates
More robust nameplate detection
Mouseover tooltip support
Mouseover macros work correctly on nameplates
Settings stored per character

The goal is to add functionality while keeping the addon lightweight and visually close to the original Blizzard UI.

🆕 What's New in v1.0.10

🐾 Improved Druid Debuff Tracking

Druid aura tracking has been expanded and corrected.

Added Demoralizing Roar debuff tracking
Rip now uses the correct duration based on Combo Points
Rip scales from 10 seconds at 1 Combo Point to 18 seconds at 5 Combo Points
Multi-target and GUID-based tracking continue to work normally

🏹 Improved Projectile & Miss Handling

Aura application handling has been improved for abilities whose projectile reaches the target after the initial cast or shot event.

This prevents situations where a DoT briefly appears on the nameplate and is immediately removed because the projectile ultimately missed.

Reduced false temporary DoT displays
More reliable miss cleanup
Especially useful for Hunter-style ranged DoT applications
Direct caster DoTs continue to update normally

Additional aura handling improvements include:
