Character Role?

What class is having this issue?

1. Shaman

How often does this issue occur?

Always

My 86 SHM needs to cast Talisman of Tiger (96 secs) at the beginning of a fight and if there is multiple mobs and the buff fades then recast. Otherwise do not cast. CheckBuffsTimer=7200 for all other buffs.

Try to put in in the dps section instead of buff section.

You could add it to the dps section near the top, as well as the AE section.

If I add it to the DPS section it will cast way too often. I only want to cast Talisman of Tiger at beginning of fight or with multiple mobs possibly cast more than once.

 

[MrPatate]

add the tag |once for the dps part, for multiple mobs put it in the AE section too with the tag |3 for exemple.

 

[shu]

The |once idea is good. Adding it to AE section will attempt to cast the buff twice immediately if there are 3 mobs. Yes?

If you add it to the dps section you can add a condition to check if you already have the buff. Then it will only cast it in combat if you dont have the buff.

Will edit this post with condition soon as I'm back to comp.

Anthilia pls share that cond with me and how I use it. Tyvm

I use this on my shaman and he will only cast it if it drops off the MA.

DPS3=Talisman of the Sabretooth|99|MA

With the MA tag it should check if the MA has the buff and NOT recast if he does.

That keeps the buff up on my group and only recasts after the buff drops, you can use a condition to do some additional checks if you want. I would do something like this.

DPS3=Talisman of the Sabretooth|99|MA|cond1

Cond1=${Spawn[${MyTargetID}].PctHPs}>25

Thank you CTaylor. Once I have improved as much as possible my (86) shm and mag KA file I will share it with the redguide community. I still remember the 86 Mage KA example file I started with.
