Total Health Percent
Knowing exactly where your health stands in the middle of a raid fight can mean the difference between a clean kill and a corpse run. Total Health Percent solves that problem with a clean, dedicated display that shows your current health as a percentage, positioned and styled however you like. Whether you are pushing mythic keys on Retail or leveling through Azeroth on a Classic realm, this addon keeps the most important number on your screen readable at all times.
What Total Health Percent Does
At its core, Total Health Percent displays your current health as a percentage in a dedicated, fully customizable frame. Instead of squinting at a health bar or doing mental math while dodging mechanics, you get a single clear number that updates in real time. The display is built for readability first, so it works just as well on a 4K monitor as it does on an older laptop screen.
The addon was developed for WoW Forever and uses the curve-based APIs introduced with Midnight to evaluate health percentage and color thresholds. This means it works within the game's secret-value restrictions rather than fighting them, which keeps the addon stable and compliant with modern client behavior.

Color Curves Explained
Above and Below Thresholds
The color curve system is where Total Health Percent really shines. You can set an Above threshold, for example 70 percent, and assign it a calm green color. Then set a Below threshold, say 35 percent, and assign it a warning red. As your health moves between those values, the display transitions accordingly, giving you an instant visual cue without reading a single digit.
Because each rule can be toggled independently, healers and tanks can fine-tune the behavior differently. A tank might want an early amber warning at 60 percent, while a DPS player might only care about a critical red flash below 25 percent. Both are possible with the same addon.
Styling the Display
Position the frame anywhere on your screen, then dial in the font, size, outline, and color to match your UI package. If you prefer a minimalist setup, you can hide the display entirely outside of combat or when your health is full. Everything is configured through the /thp interface, so there is no need to edit Lua files or hunt through saved variables.
Version Compatibility for World of Warcraft
Total Health Percent for World of Warcraft is built with broad compatibility in mind. The addon supports Retail, Classic, The Burning Crusade, Wrath of the Lich King, Cataclysm, and Mists of Pandaria clients. Because the curve-based health evaluation depends on modern API behavior, the Retail build takes full advantage of the Midnight-era restrictions, while the Classic-family builds retain the same clean display and configuration options players expect.
If you play across multiple versions, you only need one addon folder per client. The configuration experience is consistent, so switching between a Cataclysm alt and your Retail main does not mean relearning the settings menu.
How to Install
Getting started is straightforward. Here is the standard process for how to install the addon:
- Download Total Health Percent from your preferred addon source and extract the archive.
- Place the TotalHealthPercent folder into your World of Warcraft Interface/AddOns directory for the correct client version.
- Restart the game or reload your UI, then confirm the addon appears in the AddOns list at character select.
- Log in and type /thp to open the configuration interface and position your display.
If you would rather skip manual folder management, the foxygame.net launcher offers a one-click install path that handles Total Health Percent alongside the rest of its addon catalog, keeping everything updated automatically as new client builds arrive.
Why It Belongs in Your UI
Most UI addons try to do too much. Total Health Percent does one job and does it well: it puts your health percentage front and center with colors that communicate danger faster than any bar. The curve-based design means your display reacts intelligently to incoming damage, and the secret-value compatibility keeps it working smoothly on current clients.
Whether you are raiding on Retail, running dungeons on Wrath of the Lich King, or questing through Mists of Pandaria, a quick download of Total Health Percent gives you a lightweight, configurable readout that fits any interface. Set your thresholds, pick your colors, and let the addon handle the rest.
