WA, ElvUI), with great customizability comes a massive headache at first. It's not a huge deal, but it should be a lot cleaner out of the box.Ĥ, It takes a bit of time and effort to learn your way around setting things up. I had to wipe all of this and build from scratch. Most casts will have some wacky animation to them and every nameplate will have 5-10 buffs/debuffs or more attached to them. Plater has waaaaaaaay too much going on when you first load it. Scripting allows you to change how nameplates/castbars look based on things like mob type and cast. It's easy to add icons for buffs and debuffs above nameplates and scripting.
A lot of that customizability comes from two things.
If you're machine is borderline on running the game smoothly this might be a dealbreaker. I've used default, elvui, tidyplates, and KUI before. Easily the most customizable one I've found.
It really is a fantastic nameplate addon. I'll add another voice of support for Plater, but with some caveats/details.
