Was playing around with Aloft (
Aloft - Addons - Curse) today, and wondered whether it would be possible to have it, or something like it highlight the nameplates for mobs which are below 20% hp, so you can killshot them for a quick bit of damage on fights that have adds - with a mouseover killshot macro this would be quite simple, provided you have something to indicate when things are valid targets for KS.
I think this would work, since all the mod needs to know to determine whether a mob is killshottable or not is whether it's HP is below 20% or not, and it already has this information - basically all it needs to do is highlight the frame it's already displaying in some way when the value it's showing is below 20%.
Does anyone know of a mod that does this, or a nameplate mod that's being maintained (I believe Aloft was abandoned last year), or a reason that this wouldn't be possible (say some blizzard limitation preventing nameplate frames responding to health-change events)?
Clarification due to lots of confusion in the other thread I mentioned this: this is for display on the nameplates for mobs around you, not the mob you're targetting. I know lots of ways of knowing whether I can killshot the mob I have targeted, that's not the issue - the issue is getting some kind of flash/color change on the nameplate for a particular non-targetted mob (like the ones in the screenshot below) when it switches to being below 20% hp:
