About this addon
What it does
The Precision Targeting Reticle for Every Encounter
"When you need to be Rdy, be Hated."

🎯 About the Addon
Hated Target anchors an animated, dual-rotating crosshair straight to your current target's nameplate, so you never have to hunt for a health bar in a crowd again. The reticle tells you what you need to know at a glance — no menus, no digging — and pulses the instant a target you're locked onto turns out to be a healer, in the open world, in arenas, and in battlegrounds.
Built for a client that increasingly locks addons out of reliable PvP information, Hated Target leans on live spec reads, scoreboard evidence, and confirmed healer casts instead of manual inspection — so it keeps working exactly where you need it most: mid-fight, with no wasted clicks.
