I compared 6 popular nameplate addons for WoW to find out which one is best. To decide, I ranked each of one out of 50 points based on their features, author support, customization, performance, and setup. I tested them in Shadowlands but most of them are also available in TBC!

  2. I've been using Threat Plates for a while now, and just recently tried Plater, to compare. Maybe I'm not hardcore enough with all the plater settings, but I can't seem to get the nameplates as smooth with Plater, as I do with Threat Plates.

  3. I just discovered you 2 days ago looking up a different addon. You have been a tremendous amount of help on several addons as I've gone through your library and thank you. I have subscribed.

  5. Great content, a video about unit frame addons would be great as well, maybe even taking it a step further to test using elvui for other ui elements, but disabling the module for unit frames and using grid2 in conjunction with elvui.
