But don't you have a better chance of completely blocking an attack when using a shield as opposed to a 2H staff?

Macro. This was before I bothered to read the instructions. As a man, it is against my ethics to read instructions prior to at least 1 catastrophic failure. After that, it's ok to consult the manual. Ever since, I've ran it as LUA, and while I can't comment on ENC efficacy (since it's my...

I've been running my ENC, SHM, CLR, DRU, MAG, ROG as a 6 box since I restarted after 17 years, but I've been thinking of switching to manually running them as 2 sets of 3 + mercs like that. ENC (heal merc) + DRU (heal merc) + CLR (tank merc). SHM (tank merc) + MAG (heal merc) + ROG (heal merc)...

It hasn't been an issue since. The first time I tried to run RGMercs, I executed it on the Enchanter because I didn't know anything about the script; I thought I would be launching a UI of some kind, as opposed to a per-instance command line, so when he started spazzing out I just kinda sat back...

The one and only time I ever sold an account was back during early Kunark in 2000. Level 51 Enchanter for $1500. Then I went into boot at MCRD San Diego and didn't think about EQ again until I got out 4 years later.

Looks like you got yourself a passive-aggressive mercenary. Let's hope they're not codependent, too. But seriously, I had some issues running my Enchanter through RGMercs, too; mostly consisted of him trying to constantly memorize/forget Auras he already had running, trying to cast them, and...

Thanks; still staggering around here like a sailor on his first shore leave, trying to guess what goes where. Next time I'll spend more time burrowing through the threads to see if I can splice a question into the right area. 👍 Edit: Yep, it's as I surmised. RGMercs wasn't broken, I was...

Ok, I've only ever played casters in EQ, unless you count the dalliance with my Shadowknight that I haven't touched in 17 years. But I knew I needed a Rogue to pick locks for a lot of older content I wanted to sail through and/or farm for alts when bored. Being a know-nothing regarding melee...

You know what? You're right. I never switch to him outside of buff times anyway; I think it's past time to accept this is what I got the program for in the first place, set RGMercs to run, and trust the people who made it. Because I absolutely cannot switch between 5-6 characters while trying to...

Oh, I'm definitely getting that already. I don't think I've even tried setting the Mage's pet as group MT yet; will it persist after pet death/re-summon or does it have to be reset every time the pet name changes? I've set the Mage's XTarget #20 as his pet so it always automatically updates HIS...

Circling back to recurring problems, I have 2 that are bugging me. The first is regarding Yes/No dialog boxes: now that I set the auto rez accept to YES that particular problem has been resolved, but any other window requiring a yes/no, accept/reject, whatever is wiped the second I try to...

I've given the RGMercs class config files a cursory glance, but it's Greek to me; I can't really tell how to assign a spell to a particular spell gem so I can manually cast it via a "/dex 'CharName' /cast #" without having to rewrite all my macros, or if that's even possible while RGMercs is...

So I'm confusing the minimum requirement of 6 players for a raid requirement? Damn; that means I never had to form a raid in the first place?! Sounds suspiciously plausible. I think that's how I did an LDoN raid mission one time, by just having 6 people in the group (with 1 camped out), then...

Finally got my 18c/36t Xeon set up and running; it came with all the latest firmware and BIOS updates already installed, which absolutely overjoyed me to no end. Had to use the RX 570 anyway, because that piddling little 2GB graphics card was just too wimpy. Maybe if I ran just a single instance...

I'm, uh...doing that already. First part: "...when I need to form a raid I would put all 5 in it..." That means /raidinvite has already been used; that's how 5 toons end up in a raid to begin with. I fail to see how doing the exact same thing that highlighted the issue in the first place would...
