Question - Aggro Meter!

[AnonymousHero]

Alright so I got around to thinking about the Aggro meter that was introduced in what VOA?

Is there any way to get information out of it because I really cant find anything in the documentation on it.

I know in the UI it shows up in the character info window (where your name is), group window, target window, HOTT window and Xtarget window but is there any way we can pull these numbers out into MQ2 to utilize them for purposes of like hitting fade discs and/or tanking discs automatically?

There is....tho I don't recall what it is...give it a few and some one will have it

character
int PctAggro
int SecondaryPctAggro
spawn SecondaryAggroPlayer
spawn AggroLock

target
int PctAggro
int SecondaryPctAggro
spawn SecondaryAggroPlayer

groupmember
int PctAggro

xtarget
int PctAggro

Snippet I use to flip wiz merc to burn until it gets over 75% aggro then back to balanced

    /if ( ${Me.Mercenary.Equal[ACTIVE]} && ${Select[${Group.Member[1].Class},Wizard]} ) {
        /if (${Me.SecondaryPctAggro} > 75 && ${Group.Member[1].Name.Equal[${Me.SecondaryAggroPlayer.CleanName}]} ) {
            /if (${Me.MercenaryStance.NotEqual[Balanced]}) /stance balanced
        } else {
            /if (${Target.PctHPs} < 90 && ${Me.MercenaryStance.NotEqual[Burn]}) /stance burn
        }
    }

Wow... You know maybe Maskoi should slip that into kissassist if he hasnt already because that is a good way to get more DPS out of a caster merc without micromanaging.

Me.PctAggro also returns your aggro value. I use it for afnuke I have it concussive if it goes above 90.

Doesn't look like that snippet made it into KA yet Sym, sorry for the total noob question but where exactly would I put it to use with KA? Does it just set burn once per fight or will it go to burn every time agro drops low enough?

It will be in Kiss 7.0

I'm not at all happy with how PctAggro for group members work, but I plan on fixing that down the line.
To me its logical that Member[x].PctAggro should return agro for the character that Member[x].Name returns, where x is the same number for both.
But it doesn't. and that... is a bug.

The snippet can be made into a Holyshit.
I saw it somewhere a while back but can't remember where.
Looks to be something from Sym as it's exactly the same as his snippet.

holyshit0=/if (${Me.Mercenary.Equal[ACTIVE]} && !${Select[${Me.MercenaryStance},Balanced,Burn]} && ${Select[${Group.Member[1].Class},Wizard]}) /stance balanced
holyshit1=/if (${Me.Mercenary.Equal[ACTIVE]} && ${Select[${Group.Member[1].Class},Wizard]} && ${Me.SecondaryPctAggro} > 75 && ${Group.Member[1].Name.Equal[${Me.SecondaryAggroPlayer.CleanName}]} && ${Me.MercenaryStance.NotEqual[Balanced]}) /stance balanced 
holyshit2=/if (${Me.Mercenary.Equal[ACTIVE]} && ${Select[${Group.Member[1].Class},Wizard]} && ${Me.SecondaryPctAggro} <=75 && ${Group.Member[1].Name.Equal[${Me.SecondaryAggroPlayer.CleanName}]} && ${Me.MercenaryStance.NotEqual[Burn]} && ${Target.PctHPs} < 90) /stance burn

It works.

Thanks SYM!

That would have to go into MQMelee and before it's compiled wouldn't it?

Actually goes in your "server_character.ini" file and is used by MQ2Melee plugin.
This can be used while your running Kissassist macro or while going solo.
Check out this thread for details on down and holy shits. -> HOLYSHIT!

If you're not using MQ2Melee I would look into it at the WIKI -> MQ2Melee
I've not seen a beginners guide to MQ2Melee.

Updated code for latest mq2 zip mercenary changes

    /if ( ${Mercenary.State.Equal[ACTIVE]} && ${Select[${Group.Member[1].Class},Wizard]} ) {
        /if (${Me.SecondaryPctAggro} > 75 && ${Group.Member[1].Name.Equal[${Me.SecondaryAggroPlayer.CleanName}]} ) {
            /if (${Mercenary.Stance.NotEqual[Balanced]}) /stance balanced
        } else {
            /if (${Target.PctHPs} < 90 && ${Mercenary.Stance.NotEqual[Burn]}) /stance burn
        }
    }

holyshit0=/if (${Mercenary.State.Equal[ACTIVE]} && !${Select[${Mercenary.Stance},Balanced,Burn]} && ${Select[${Group.Member[1].Class},Wizard]}) /stance balanced
holyshit1=/if (${Mercenary.State.Equal[ACTIVE]} && ${Select[${Group.Member[1].Class},Wizard]} && ${Me.SecondaryPctAggro} > 75 && ${Group.Member[1].Name.Equal[${Me.SecondaryAggroPlayer.CleanName}]} && ${Mercenary.Stance.NotEqual[Balanced]}) /stance balanced
