Config - Basic Conditional pull question

[scottpeterson99]

I could not quite ascertain how to stop killing using the "Hunter" role if Quickness has dropped on myself (or ideally Mercs also). Is there a condition to pause running about and agroing if a buff like "Quickness" is not up so it gives time to let the Shaman sit and go through his cycle until at least that one buff is up on me (or ideally every melee as well.)

I thought maybe there was something to but I cant quite figure it out. I'm still pretty new, but really loving KA so far!!!!

I currently use CWTN for pulling so haven't tested this, but KA12 seems to offer something that would work:

PullPause

2

#Minutes

Time in Minutes to pull mobs before Holding Pulls|How long in minutes after holding to resume pulls. Optional Cond# can be used to check if pulls should continue to be held. Pulls will be held if condition returns true. Example: PullPause=30|2|cond1 cond1=${Me.Snared}

So something like the following might work:

PullPause=10|0|cond1
cond1=!${Me.Buff[]}

From the description, this would pause pulling every 10 minutes until you get 'Buff' on you. I suppose you would change the check interval based on the duration of the buff.

An easier approach would be to just pause pulling for 1 minute every X minutes, where X is the duration of the shortest buff you care about, e.g.
PullPause=30|1
This will give you buff toons 1 minute to apply buffs every 30 minutes.

As for mercs - not covered by this.

Fantastic. I was just considering a simple timer for shortest duration buff and logged in to see your your reply. Really appreciate the explanation. I have a thousand questions but don't want to overwhelm.

To clarify, with cond1=!${Me.Buff[]} Is one able to specify the buff, such as cond1=!${Me.Quickness[]}

Regarding CWTN for a warrior, does it offer something like this built in? I'm running a warrior, shammy, and bard with mercs. Hear great things about CWTN but also like to learn the syntax and twerk (was supposed to say "tweak" but spell check :> )

Cond would be !${Me.Buff[Quickness].ID}

CWTN doesn't have something equivalent to this. You can watch for HP, Mana, or End for yourself or group members, and pause pulling based on these. But not on whether you have a specific buff.

no, the cwtn plugins have "group watch" which allow you to stop pulls based on mana, endurance, hps of your group members, we also hold pulls if you're snared or have rez sickness

but there is no custom conditional stop for the cwtn plugins.
