Question - Are we able to automatically send a command when using the pulling mode?

So for the longest time I have on my main character I run, an ability that sends a tell to the healer to cast a regen spell on the main assist in order to prepare for the inbound mob hitting him. I usually hit this as the puller is running back in. My question is instead of manually triggering that /bct to the cleric to cast is there a way that when the puller gets back to the camp that they initiate the bct to the cleric automatically? I was debating as far as putting in the dps section but that would fire when the assist is called at the 95% or so and of course on a heavy hp mob that could be way too late.

there is the |ambush tag

it says "can be used on all melee characters not just the tank"
I was going to suggest putting it in your cleric's ini, but you might be able to just do something like this on your tank. you'd definitely want to test it somewhere easy until you got it dialed in

dps1=command:/bct clericname //cast "regen spell"|99|ambush

Kiss Ambush
Spell/AA/Ability|MobHealth%|ambushThis tag is used to Tell the DPS section what to do before attacking. Can be used on all Melee characters not just the Tank.
Only supports 5 entries, This will replace the BeforeCombat in the Melee section.
Example: DPS1=Slap in the face|99|ambush
 
so still testing but have DPS1=command:/bct cleric //cast "Sacred Elixir" -targetid|${Group.MainAssist.ID}|99|ambush
and it comes back saying it was expecting a target id numeric value but got null on startup of kissassist

Also as another semi related question is there a way to send a command right after combat ends? In my case a /bcaa //sit on after combat to force them to med no matter if they want to or not.
 
/cast is just a regular cast
the "spell" -otherflags etc is mq2cast so you need/want /casting which is mq2cast

this is a pretty weird usecase, but you probably want

DPS1=command:/bct cleric //cast "Sacred Elixir"|MA|99|ambush
nah that's not gonna work either
if it lets you slap all that together

should just have something on your cleric to cast on your tank instead of your tank telling your sk to do something

you could do this on your cleric and probably just automagically do it
DPS1=Sacred Elixir|MA|99|ambush

On starting MQ2 spits out invalid format for : DPS1=command:/bct Cleric //cast Sacred Second Tag: NULL should be numeric value. Skipping DPS1. Please correct and rerun

sorry number before the rest: |99|MA|Ambush

still not sure if it will let you pair MA with ambush, but worth a try
 
It seems to be casting it from what I can tell but giving the error message on startup oddly enough.
Any ideas on the command for telling all chars to sit after combat?

are you setting return to camp being on? they should return and pop a squat
 
Yep has camp on but typically they are still casting spells/buffs/etc and so don't always return to sitting unless they are medding at like the 20% level.
 
set their medstart=99

so they will always sit after combat.
 
well that's one way to do it. :) Thank you everyone for the help. It's making a difference on survivability since I don't have my group well geared out.
