See enemy health % in default target frame

Lemenex · May 2023

Quick question from a returning player:

I have installed Bandits User Interface (since it had like 5.000.000 downloads), but the only feature that's missing is displaying the enemy health in percent in the default target frame above enemy's heads, so i can use executioner skills.

Can anybody recommend me a (simple) addon, that does just that, or maybe even change the bar from red to yellow if enemy has under 50% health left?

Can the default target frame be altered in this way?
I don't want another "Target-Bar" on my screen to display it in there.

Thank you for helping me!

Isn't this a setting in base game settings? If you enable the percentage there it should reflect to the other addons automatically at the health bars, at least that's what I assume to happen.

Default target frame can be altered that way, yes -> ESO settings -> Combat -> Ressources dropdown -> Value & Percent

while it is a base game setting, it doesnt work on everything such as companions, and it "truncates" the value (WB usually read as 1.5M instead of the full exact number)

i know theres many different addons that do stuff to alter the display of the target hp bar, but i dont know of anything that like changes color (i dont use anything like that for sure lol)

But it should show the % values properly for enemies, which was asked for here. At least it does for me and I hope that setting will change the Bandits UI target bar values too then, once changed in vanlla ESO settings.

I get my enemies bars from Advanced UI. Gives me the Percentages I need.

I tried Bandits and did not like it as much as AUI.

Note, AUI comes with everything enabled, so you may want to remove somethings if the clutter is too much.

Nobody has actually helped me in displaying the health percentage in the default health frame that's 2 centimeters above enemies head, not in the top corner of our screen, lol.

There is no default game settings that alters THAT frame above enemies heads.

I have worked around with "Squishy finder", that displays me "EXECUTE" on my crosshair at least, if enemy has below 50% health left.

You asked for the default target frame which is the one at the top of the screen below the compass.

What I understand now, as you described it better, is you ask for the health % at the health bars directly above each enemy:

These name plates and health bars cannot be altered by addons at all, it's restricted.

On PC the Addon Azurah can add in full numbers, even including thousand Separator. So 1.5mil would look like 1,500,000 in the unit frame. Its a fairly small addon that just lets you move around and customize base game unit frames.
