# The Best Nameplate Addon for Mythic+ (10.2 Update)

## Summary

This video presents a fully updated Plater profile for World of Warcraft Mythic+ dungeons in Season 3 (10.2 patch). It explains the custom color-coding system for nameplates, how to read cast bars and cooldowns, and gives a practical pre-pull and mid-pull workflow for better target priority and interrupts. The video also promotes Skillcap guides and a companion WeakAura.

### Key Points

- **New Plater Profile Overview** [00:02] — The video introduces a brand-new Plater profile for Mythic+, plus a Mirrus WeakAura, with a step-by-step guide on how to use them. It also promotes Skillcap's new Season 3 dungeon guides made with Mirz.
- **Nameplate Color Coding** [01:09] — All Season 3 mob nameplates have been recolorized. White means a priority target (dangerous, high HP); blue means simple casters; pink means casters with crucial spells that must be interrupted; brown/chocolate means casts that can only be stopped with other CC; red means regular mobs.
- **Customizing Nameplate Colors** [01:46] — Users can change mob colors inside the dungeon via a drop-down menu, or edit each mob one by one if they dislike the default colors.
- **Pandemic Border and Manual Debuff Tracking** [01:58] — A new mod adds a border around a debuff whenever it can be refreshed while using the pandemic mechanic. Important debuff tracking is set to manual, so players must add any debuffs they want to watch on the right side.
- **Automatic Buff/Debuff and CC Tracking** [02:28] — The right side of the frame automatically shows crowd control, dispellable buffs, and enrages unless deselected. Left side handles cooldown tracking via a Mirrus WeakAura, and right side is built into Plater.
- **Modified Cast Bars** [02:40] — Cast bars now show spell icons on the left and a mod that changes color based on kick readiness, including whether your interrupt will be ready mid-cast or if you're out of range.
- **Pre-Pull Identification** [03:09] — Before pulling, identify white priority targets (like a Colossus), set important casters (like the Confessor) as focus to change the nameplate texture, then assess blue casters and red regular mobs.
- **Handling Interrupt-Critical Mobs** [03:35] — Pink nameplates are especially dangerous if they chain-cast and require multiple interrupts. Pre-marking these casters avoids sifting through a wall of nameplates mid-pull.
- **Cast Bar Color Meanings** [04:18] — Yellow cast bars can be kicked immediately; blue means the cast can be kicked but your interrupt is on cooldown; purple means your kick cooldown will come back mid-cast, so it can still be stopped.
- **Cooldown Monitoring with WeakAuras** [04:43] — A glowing border around a spell icon indicates the ability is ready. This helps plan personal defensives and offensive cooldowns, with a separate WeakAura tracking these cooldowns.
- **How to Get the Profile** [04:56] — Import the Plater profile and the Mirrus WeakAura strings from the Skillcap Discord. The video also pushes Skillcap's rank-up guarantee of at least 500 IO score.

code to sign up for skillcap dcom today anyway anyway back to the video first up we have some very important information so be sure to pay attention as we show you everything that's changed since our last video to start we've updated the
colors of all name plates for season 3 mobs the different colors represent unique attributes for every NPC a white name plate means a mob is a priority Target typically one that is exceptionally dangerous and has high HP
next are blue name plates which are simple casters with spells that you pay attention because pink name plates are also casters with the difference being that these mobs have very important spells that you absolutely
need to stop then any chocolate or brown colored name plates represent mobs that have uninterruptible casts that need to be stopped with other forms of CC finally anything else will typically be red as always if you want to change the
colors of any mob you can simply do so within the dungeon itself using the drop- down menu or just go down the list and change any mob one by one if you don't like the colors we've included in our profile we've also changed the
side of the frame while adding a mod that creates a border anytime a debuff can be refreshed while benefiting from the pandemic mechanic and as a very tracking set to manual so you will need to add any important debuffs you want to
debuffs to the right we accomplished a few things for one it avoids clutter at for cooldown tracking on the left side using a weak Ora from mirrors and a special buff or debuff tracking on the right which is built into pler itself
any crowd control dispellable buff or enrage will automatically appear in this section unless you deselect any of these options by putting most of the information on the top and right we've also modified the look of the cast bars
with spell icons appearing on the left side while adding a mod that changes the conditions like whether or not your kick is ready or if it will be ready mid cast and finally a separate color for when you are out of range for an interrupt if
customize other settings with inflater be sure to check out our original video now though let's dive deeper on how to use pler in your runs starting with what to do pre pull step one is to identify any priority targets like this Colossus
plate then look for any important here we've set the Confessor to our Focus Target which has now changed the texture of the name plate now we will need to assess any other targets like
any other Casters in blue and regular mobs in Red by doing all this you can go into the pole with Vital Information especially on who to Target and as you can see here our DK is correctly hitting the keeper mob since it is colorcoded in
white and once again if there are any pink name plates in your pack then they especially if they chain cast and require multiple interrupts even if you in the habit of pre-marking dangerous casters which is exactly what stove does
and that way he doesn't have to sift through a wall of name plates mid pull interrupt finally be on the lookout for any brown colored name plates because if a cast that can only be stopped with other forms of CC like a stun disorient
or incapacitate once you've done all your preo work you need to pay attention to some important pieces of information first up you will obviously need to monitor cast bars reacting accordingly to the color of the cast itself if you
cannot be interrupted by you no matter what but if it's yellow that means you will be able to kick it if you see the cast bar go Blue it means it is a cast you could kick but your interrupt is currently on CD and if you ever see a
cast bar is purple that means your kick will come back on CD mid cast which means it can be stopped while this is happening you should also be monitoring spell CDs if you see a glowing border you know an ability is ready and will be
personal might be needed to survive incoming damage and would you look at that another boomkin who doesn't use bark skin these coold Downs are tracked with a separate week Ora that we will also include a link to within our
for casts and know the cool cool Downs of any upcoming abilities be sure to just double check that you are targeting the right priority mob while also target especially if you are a maintenance heavy spec if you want to
