Question - Boastful Conclusion

[Goober24]

Version of KissAssist.mac?

12.002

When did your problem start?

2/28/24

Character Role?

1. Assist

What class is having this issue?

1. Bard

How often does this issue occur?

Always

Bard's get the Boastful Bellow line that does initial damage and then when it falls off it does damage. Kissassist will fire this off in the dps section no problem, however it will come off cooldown before the debuff wears off, so KA will fire it off before you get the conclusion damage.

I thought maybe I would try to use the interval for this, however if you look at the KA docs, it says "interval" is only for cast time abilities, so when I played around with specifying different lengths it didnt do anything.

My question is, is there a way you can set a time interval on this skill in the DPS section to stop it from cutting it short?

Use a K-condition to check for it, before firing... ini library, or Sic/Kaen/psy might pop in and be able to call it out.

You can try this

DPSX=Boastful Bellow|99|CondX

CondX=!${Target.MyBuff[Boastful Bellow].ID}

You can try this

DPSX=Boastful Bellow|99|CondX

CondX=!${Target.MyBuff[Boastful Bellow].ID}

I've tried to do this as well, and I think I tried the following condition:

Cond2=${Target.BuffsPopulated} && !${Target.Buff[Boastful Bellow].Caster.Equal[${Me.Name}]}

But when I actually tried it on mobs, it seemed to me I still wasn't getting the conclusion to happen. It's like the code was seeing that the buff was gone but there was still some delay for the damage to happen and my kissassist section was then still getting the bellow buff back on it too fast, so I was losing the conclusion damage. I didn't do a very big sample in my testing and I may have been incorrect...I feel like I was manually looking for the damage in my log file rather then looking at my parse (which was silly). So I should give this another try and see if Psy's suggestion works, or if my condition actually worked, and I only thought it wasn't.

Just to confirm, is it casting boastful on cooldown or close to the time it should expire?

unfortunately, eq appears to have a bug where even if the debuff is gone, you still need a couple of seconds for it to consistently fulminate. it is really annoying

Only way I've gotten Bellow to work consistently is by making a LEM that watches for the conclusion to do damage, then recast bellow.

I basically had been using a GINA trigger start a timer on bellow cast and then ends the timer when it sees the damage from conclusion. Then on my driver manually doing a /dex <bardname> /alt activate <bellow id>

Mobs die so quickly in my group I just use it |once

Biggest thing is during raids, id like to keep it rolling on cooldown

It recasts it 2-4 seconds before it ends most times.

If you have a sec could you share more on this setup? I thought about using a pixel checker alongside Gina and then autohotkey or something to retrigger it, but it seems clunky so I was trying to find a solution in KA if there is one.

edit* In my head, I imagine it being a condition that just says (check for debuff, If the debuff is gone, wait 5 seconds, and do this ability) but I'm not great with programming, and I'm not sure that's within the realm of doable.
