Question - Bard Chain pulling - most efficient macro?

I'm running 5 CWTN plugins and a Bard. So far, I've been running in puller tank mode, with the bard using KissAssist and its been working out well, but I'm beginning to get into that place where efficiency counts! I want to start chain pulling in some spots, and want to use the Bard to do it. Is KissAssist the most efficient at this (chain pulling, twisting, etc,) or should I give something else a try? At some point, I do want to try the various combat assist plugins, but my goal at the moment is to get to 85 as quick as possible (77 now.)

you should try huntertank mode with everyone else in chase imo.

chain pulling you're losing an entire person's worth of dps.

a group chain pulling absolutely can't keep up with me huntertanking.

Oh, I haven't tried that yet, I'll give it a go. Can you configure it to stay in a specific area? I remember watching one of your vids, or reading about this, and i thought that just the tank running around blindly?

huntertank mode just finds mobs on your blue circle (with all your pull settings) and takes the crew to them instead of going to them and coming back.

Got it, so it uses the settings on the Pulling tab then? Sounds less boring than pull modes!

yes.

if your team was a team with a bunch of casters, who might have a less enjoyable time moving around (mounts/medding etc), huntertank might be a less viable option for you.

kissassist also does chain pulling just fine if you wanted to do that with your bardarino
