I was curious how to set my Bard to automatically target the Main Tanks target at 98% health so the Bards offensive songs hit the groups target all the time? My group is pulling nonstop and I want the Bard to autotarget the newest mob as they come in and become the main assist target.
 
Using what? You didn't say nor post anywhere that would incate.

Kissassist?
Xgen?
Rgmercs?
MuleAssist?
Core?
Modbot?
 
MQ2 is loaded up. The rest of the group is using your CWTN plugins. The Bard doesn't really have anything. I am controlling him myself currently.

You should consider using one of the aforementioned automations otherwise the answer is "well you can manually do that".

Plenty of bard inis available if you want that route, or so thing like rgmercs or xgen if you want little setup
 
Problem with bard that you cannot get around is , Once a new mob engages a group while you are busy with a current mob, your bard is the first to get targeted and attacked. To my knowledge there is no way around this unless you have main tank doing constant AE aggro .

To get your bard to jump on new target, ( I am assuming your going to mez or something) there is a line in INI file where if have set # of mobs in camp he will MEZ. Keep in mind doing this will also drop his songs
 
I want to automate him to where he is playing melody, then xtargets the Tanks target and begins autoattack while still playing his melody. I am kinda new to this so I apologize in advance..

there are several options

Kissassist
Xgen
Rgmercs
MuleAssist
Core
Modbot
 
For my Bard I use Kissassist. He does assist the MT, plays different melodies based on whether there are mobs to deal with or not, mezzes when there are more than 2 mobs on aggro, clicks his clickies when conditions are met and uses all the nice stuff activatable Aa's offer. So all the nice stuff, you want him to do.

In order to get your bard doing similar, you may check the kissassist library, where players have saved their kissassist.ini to control their bard. If you like, you may start with this Kissassist_bard.Ini.
Different to the kind of "closed" plugin, which work fine out of the box and you can modify behavior by just setting some parameter values, the kind of "universal"-plugin require that anything a char shall do, has to be defined within the appropriate chars INI. Times ago there was created the library, where players can deposit the inis they defined for their chars. If you are lucky you can find one, which perfectly fits your needs, or else you choose one and try to adopt it to your needs.
The one I linked works well for my needs and may do well for you either. If not you could dive in to the syntax of the inis and start do modify it, until you are happy. If you want to learn how to get started with kissassist, you may use the kissasist-WikiI as a starting point.
