("Force tank mode") Only use offtank colour if the player is a tank

This allows DPS to use "force tank mode" to make threat more noticable, but without just making all nameplates purple while a tank has them.


Hello,

I'd like to request some improvements for tank mode, if possible.

  1. When you're in tank specialization: have one additional coloring option "Lost aggro" or something like this. That would work like this in a mythic+/raid scenario, let's say.
  • you have aggro > color green (tanked - existing option)
  • you start losing aggro > color orange (transitioning - existing option)
  • you lost aggro or mobs were ninja pulled (tanked by any non-tank) -> different color (new option)
  • tanked by off tank when there's one > color purple (offtank - existing option)
  1. When you're not in tank specialization and have "force tank mode" on, pretty much same as above with a little difference.
  • you have aggro > color green
  • you start getting aggro > color orange
  • you don't have aggro > color red/default
  • tanked by another tank > disabled for non-tank

I use "force tank mode" in raid to quickly notice if I get aggro, but all the time my nameplates are purple because of offtank option. Would be great to be disabled for non-tanks.

  1. Color nameplates by raid marker. E.g: if target is marked by square > color blue. Would make it easy to notice a priority target when bunch of mobs are stacked.

  2. I can't seem to figure out a way to disable the aggro red glow from borders. If I have like 10 mobs aggro'd all are green with red glow. Would be great to have an option to disable that if possible.

I hope I'm not too picky with these suggestions.
Thank you.

  1. This is a good point, and is what I'll use this issue for (issue posts with multiple issues inside them are difficult to work with).

Thanks.
