Anyone successfully boxed Echo of Hate?

I haven't seen it mentioned yet, but the Lua "GiveIt" seems to work well for greedling. Take a look at it.

Start the Lua, "/Lua load GiveIt", then when greedling begs, get toons within range and "/dgga /Giveit coin npc Greedling plat 3"

(dgga is if you're running dannet)

Amazing. I didnt know about this Lua. This would have made quest turn ins so much easier over the years. Thanks!
 
I had found this out a week or so ago. I tell it to do it on all characters, and they can do it all at once.

I programmed a buttonmaster hotkey for the process:
Code:
-- lua
local ZoneName = mq.TLO.Zone.ShortName()
local ClassName = mq.TLO.Me.Class.ShortName()
local give_running = mq.TLO.Lua.Script('giveit').Status() == 'RUNNING'
if (not give_running) then mq.cmd('/lua run giveit') end

mq.cmd('/dgga /lua run giveit')


if (mq.TLO.SpawnCount('greedling npc')() > 0 ) then
    mq.cmd('/dgga /attack off')
    mq.cmd('/dgga /target greedling')
    mq.cmd('/dgga /giveit coin npc greedling plat 100')
end
 
This mission was a little frustrating for me at first.

Far too often I found that a group member would not click on the crystal and then when I switched back to chase mode it would run back and get lots of agro on route to the rest of the team.

I tried just using my SK + Shaman in the North, East, West and South rooms but would have issue with agro from random mobs (or the charm) just as the echo went live which really messed up things.

To get round this I set up 1 button for setting mode to Normal
And created buttons to set mode to chase + navigation buttons to each location. I prefixed the various commands with :-

/noparse /dgge /if (${Spawn[${Group.Member[TankName]}].Distance} < 150) /...rest of command (i.e. /boxr chase)

This way when I needed to move North, East, South, West or back to main room I would click button to set Mode to Manual and then I would click button to move to new location. Group membrs would only follow the commands if in range of tank.

This way if any of my team failed to follow the rest of the team then it would stay in place and not chase group when I went to Chase mode or moved about.

What I wound up having to do is hitting my door click button like 3 - 4 times to make sure the command was sent

This sounds like you're not having good background performance, so ensure you're using framelimiter
 
no but i solo'ed it all the way to the final encounter while my group of real players were idk off having lunch or smoking or doing something .. they came back to me tap tanking echo toying with him while waiting on them to get back from afk land ...
 
Separate question: Has anyone worked out what the "What it wants" achievement is all about? Is it about not damaging the flagellant? Killing it? Healing it (will take some doing as it seems raid level of hp)? The description is unclear (to me).

"Trigger the Dark Flagellant first and allow it to ascend"
Do the north room first, and leave him alone and eventually he kills himself, takes about 5 mins, whole group gets hit with his aoe, but its easily healed.
