Not exactly sure how bard work with Kissassist, I know I have never been impressed, Mine usually stands there singing getting agro immediately upon pull cause the retard NEVER STOPS SINGING . ..
Most of the bard DPS from what I have seen has been from singing not actual melee.

The only thing I see that May affect it:
INI:
[DPS]
DPSOn=2
DPSSize=23
DPSSkip=1
DPSInterval=2
DPS1=Funeral Dirge|99|Cond8
DPS2=Quick Time|99|Cond8
DPS3=Spire of the Minstrels|99|Cond8

the "2" for DPSOn=2 usually implies that there are conditions IN the DPS section for each line of DPS, try changing that to a 1

not exactly how it was phrased, been months since I have seen a 2 used, and it may have been phased out entirely with the latest update

DPS1=Dothis|Life%
DPS1Cond=If this check is TRUE
DPS2=NoNext|Life%
DPS2Cond=If this check is TRUE
 
Hi.

You issued a broadcast command, to turn on chase (/brd mode 2). This caused your Kissassist macro to End. MQ2Twist has continued.
Fix up your hotkeys.

DPSOn=2 means Kiss will fire the DPS section in sequential order from 1 to 23. Conditions per DPS line was deprecated with Kiss11. That format lives on in MuleAssist.

a bad command shouldn't cause kiss to end
 
It does. I experience it, and you don’t have to take my word for it, it’s right there in the [KissError] in black n white, in the OP’s ini file on line 232

the line 232 is just showing the last error message doesn't say that ended it or paused it.

this will just say it can't parse it.

now with #warning turned on (which kiss uses), the macro will pause if you have an undefined variable

or you can crash with an unparsable situation

1613984136630.png

and before we had things like ${Macro.CurCommand} or ${Macro.CurLine} (or at least until we knew about them)
we would use commands that don't work or varset something that doesn't exist and spam it to find out where in the macro it is

this isn't as useful anymore since we can just ${Macro.CurCommand} or ${Macro.CurLine}
but was handy when i first came around

dunno - hylander can fat finger a /sit into /sdit and it will end his macro

not the behavior im seeing so i dunno

1613988476278.png
 
btw
does this function?
DPS23=command:/bct ClericName //multiline ; /stopcasting ;/mqp ; /timed 3 /target id ${Me.ID} ; /timed 5 /alt act 41 ; /timed 8 /mqp |99|cond17

and you have some funky settings for campradius and melee distance etc
 
INI:
[General]
CampRadius=300 <--- set this to 35
ReturnToCamp=1   <--- i prefer this being 0, and then using /camphere on|off to set camp in game

campradius=300 is far too big, it shouldnt really be changed from default setting, sometimes inside lowering it to 25 is good but else set it to 30 and forget it exists.

INI:
[Melee]
MeleeTwistOn=1  <--- should consider setting this to 2, begins to melee twist once mob is pulled instead of when you start attacking it.
MeleeTwistWhat=8 9 6 10 1 2 3 4 5 6 11 12    <--- twist  only supports up to 10 songs 
MeleeDistance=30  <---- this is far too small, set it to 60+ but lower than 80
UseMQ2Melee=1       <--- turn this off, will only fuck your bard up
TargetSwitchingOn=1   <--- this is only for tanks to use. set it to 0
meleedistance=30 makes your bard only try and attack things he can basically reach out and touch with his tongue.

This is not correct.
DpsOn=1 or 2 is just a difference in when to fire the dps lines and has nothing to do with conditions, for 99% of situations for all classes DpsOn=2 is the best option.

DpsOn=1 makes you cast the dps line at the hp percent listed
dps1=kick|45 <--- will start kicking the mob at 45% health or less

DpsOn=2 will fire your dps line in the order based on the number listed
dps1=kick|90
dps2=bash|99

this will bash, kick, bash, kick from the moment you engage mob.
this allows us to create a nice rotation of attacks.

100%

dpson=2 is the win, dpson=1 may have been awesome in 2001, but i don't get any value out of it these days
