AlcTol.mac Noobhaxor Edition (Currently Exploitable)

[Noobhaxor]

Ok, so I was browsing the SoE forums and found a post complaining about a bugged Bard song (Soothing Psalm of the Sunrise) and people complaining that they can use /melody with it. I thought well that is odd, then I looked at it and how it functions. It is completely bugged and treated as a 0 second cast time 0 refresh/recast spell! Well that sounds like a fun time...

Q: What does Soothing Psalm of the Sunrise do?
A: It reduces drunkeness, like the one certain named mobs cast in Empires of Kunark.

Well back in the day I'd just rewrite the memory removing "you could not possibly drink any more" in eqgame.exe, but I'm a reformed man and it would be hypocritical. (Mq2DoCrack and INI edits for those vets or just a direct packet edit like mq2fearune)

So why not exploit a little bit because that is fun and this is pretty harmless(everyone can run around with 550 alcohol tolerance and EQ would be no different.)

So Here is the setup:
-MUST HAVE BARD IN GROUP (Level 57 with EoK xpack)
-Scribe Soothing Psalm of the Sunrise and put it in a Gem Slot
-Group up with Bard
-Run to someone that sells stuff that can get you drunk (Brandy is my choice and remote, I use Dray Cuves in Abysmal)
-Start the macro on all TOONS! /mac alctol

Notes:
-If bard is already maxed... this moves a bit quicker since he won't be slowed down by drinking or buying drinks
-Casters take longer to get maxxed (Warrior maxed in like 20 minute and Cleric is taking about an hour)
-Don't use Ale (this makes an error in the macro if you have an item with ALE in it ex. Dragonscale Helm or Saddle)

That all said, its fun little bug/exploit and even after they patch the song this macro will work great. it just might be a bit slower with the song only casting every 6 s instead of every half second.

People still bitching that the song isn't working because the skill is offense and it doesn't work with melody :P

The Exploit lives on! lol, I think the eq programmer in charge of bards rage quit and noone knows how to program songs now.

This worked with some tweaks..... doesn't really seem like much of an exploit though. I guess the exploit part is how quickly one can re-cast the bard spell.
