Problem - Bard puller not working correctly

[uberbroodling]

Version of KissAssist.mac?

11.005

When did your problem start?

~ 10/1/2019

Character Role?

1. Puller

What class is having this issue?

1. Bard

How often does this issue occur?

Always

so I've got my bard set to pull, and it works well until either a- it runs out of mobs in the area or b- it has to med.

at that point, it goes into a continuous buff / med cycle and never gets out of it on its own. However, If something attacks me, or i manually pull something it goes back to working as expected and resumes pulling. I figure it has to be something I've got mucked up in the INI file, but I can't seem to figure out what.

Well

Buffs14=Burnoose of the Halfbreed|Dual|Illusion: Half Elf
Buffs22=Illusion: |Remove

Honestly the way you have those 2 buffs, you're always going to need a buff every time it checks the buff cycle because you're always going to be checking to see if you have the Half-elf buff and then you remove it

Otherwise, Chain pull doesn't work properly IMO try turning off chain pull

 

[uberbroodling]

the illusions are working as I wanted them to with that. the issue is the same with that bit there or not.

have tried it both with chainpull on and off, the issue remains regardless. Only difference is that it happens a little sooner with chainpull cuz I run out of mobs more quickly.

 

[ctaylor22]

GroupWatchCheck should be set to 1 on your puller and turned off(0) on the rest of the group. Try Turning MedCombat off(0) as well and see if that makes a difference.

 

[Medic181]

Did you ever find a solution? I am having the exact same problem. Once my bard has to look for mobs to pull for about 2 minutes he goes into medding and doesn't stop

 

[no_one]

I am seeing the same behavior. I have tried some of the things talked about above. Did anyone find a solution?

 

[eqtrader74]

do a "/debugall on" and let us know what messages you're getting as it enters the perma-med phase.

Do you have MedCombat=1 too? On a mez class, I'd probably set that to =0

 

[ChunkerBunk]

I have the same issue. I figured out my Bard was getting stuck in while loop inside DoWeMed due to these lines:
/if (${MedForceOn} && (!${Group.MainAssist.ID} || !${Group.MainAssist.Sitting})) /varset MedForceOn 0 /if (${Me.Pct${MedStat}}==100 && !${MedForceOn}) /break
Since I am using MQ2War, my MA is always sitting, therefore MedForceOn never gets set to "0".

 

[ctaylor22]

@ChunkerBunk Your bard is not stuck. The Bard is doing exactly what he should be doing. If the MA is sitting down, then he is medding, and if the MA needs to med then the bard should not pull. If you have GroupWatchOn, and you should on your puller. Kiss is setup to monitor the other characters HP and Mana levels and pause pulling if needed. Also part of that check is if the MA in sitting, then you need to wait. Kiss has no control over what MQ2War is doing, so I don't have a solution for you.

 

[hellfyre]

Switch your warrior to mode 7 and he'll tank without sitting until he needs to med
