Question - Need some advice on bard configuration

nebulous · Oct 9, 2016

My bard is dying just about every pull as I'm trying to level him. Is there a way to configure it so that songs are only playing after he assists? Or is there a better method for keeping my pulls from rushing him?

Incognito · Oct 9, 2016

Try turning off the song he sings during rest:

Rich (BB code):

[General]
TwistOn=0
TwistMed=0
TwistWhat=0

If he is low lvl then the benefit of his rest songs are minimal, and create early hate.

Thanks Incognito. Didn't notice there were separate entries for med twisting and melee twisting!

Incognito · Oct 9, 2016

In your posted INI:

Rich (BB code):

[General]
TwistOn=1
TwistMed=Mana song gem
TwistWhat=1, 9

Those are the rest settings, so he is creating hate as the pulled mob enters the camp, before anyone (besides what little hate the puller has already generated) has had a chance to gain aggro.

Rich (BB code):

[Melee]
MeleeTwistOn=1
MeleeTwistWhat=1, 9

Those are the twists that fire when in combat (even though they are the same), and they should wait until AssistAt=95, so they should be fine. Just zero-out the first set under [General].

haha, posting at same time... this should still answer your question.

Yes. Thanks! Deaths have already ceased

Would it work to set mana & regen songs to be blocked on my puller? Or would they still contribute to aggro even when they're not working?

Now I'm getting this message when my bard assists the tank. Stops all songs and just starts swinging. Any insights?

Rich (BB code):

MeleeTwistWhat=1, 4, 5, 9

no commas

Rich (BB code):

MeleeTwistWhat=1 4 5 9

also if you don'yt have the aa get it.

Rich (BB code):

PullWith=Boastful Bellow

nebulous · Oct 10, 2016

Thanks Maskoi. It was working with the commas, and still does if i just type /twist after it stops. Does that change your diagnosis?

Maskoi · Oct 10, 2016

i will have to look at the twist code tomorrow.

nebulous · Oct 11, 2016

Thanks man

I thought I had it fixed by deleting the character's INI file, but it's still happening sporadically. I can't find any rhyme or reason to it.

It looks like this is mainly happening when engaging a mob that is over level 105. Does that help?

Upon reaching level 95, my bard is *edit* more rarely *edit* seeing the Twist stop. I wonder if it was from the level disparity.

nebulous · Oct 30, 2016

Any insights, Maskoi?
