General Plater Information
Section titled “General Plater Information”What are plater profiles and why you should use them
Section titled “What are plater profiles and why you should use them”These profiles enhance the default nameplate experience by providing more information about the mobs than the default options. Plater by itself offers a ton of customization, however for most users new and old I would recommend checking out the top profiles on wago since the creators spend a lot of time and effort to customize the profiles based on the current season.
How to use: Go to the wago link and click “Copy Import String”, then paste it into the import section of the Plater addon in-game.
