Description

Simple Threat Meter was designed out of a desire to be able to see what my threat level was, simply and without having to visually locate a mod and study it.

Omen does such a great job that I haven't seen many other threat meters developed, but with the complexity of some fights, I wanted something that keeps me aware of my current threat level, but allows me to focus on the fight at hand.

So, Simple Threat Meter was born.

Easy to see, easy to use.

What does it do?

As your threat rises, the bar displayed fills up from 0% to 100%, gradually changing from green to red in colour. When it hits 100%, you pull aggro.

This uses the BUILT-IN Blizzard threat values, so is guaranteed to be correct, and is also based upon your distance to the target.

For reference, when using Omen or another threat meter, the values you need to be aware of:
110% - you will pull aggro from the tank if you are in melee range.
130% - you will pull aggro from the tank if you are further than melee.

With Simple Threat Meter, you just need to watch for 100%.

Configuration and Usage

To open the configuration panel, type the command: /stm or access through the standard add-ons configuration menu.

The configuration options themselves should be fairly clear, though there are now plenty of them, allowing you to make STM look and behave in the way that you want. You can make the bar whatever size and position you want, vertical or horizontal.

The threat bars are also click-through when locked, meaning that they don't get in the way and don't stop you clicking on targets. You can also configure a transparency level, so you can see through the bars.

Solo / Group option. You can set STM so that it only functions in group or raid and doesn't display when solo.

Whilst simple in use, STM is highly configurable to make it look and behave in the way that you want!
