Is there any work around to getting the chanter to mez if there's 2 mobs? Right now it only seems to mez if there's 3+ mobs.

Rich (BB code): 
MezSpell=Bewilder|2
MezAESpell=Deadening Wave|3

and better

Rich (BB code): 
MezSpell=Bewilder|2
MezAESpell=Anodyne Stare|3
 
I was unaware that |2 was valid in KA for the MezSpell, can we verify that?

Rich (BB code): 
MezAESpell=Anodyne Stare|3

That utilizes a target ring, like a Splash. I am not sure KA will handle that. Even if it defaults to current target, the ring will be small. I often see a subsequent mob spawn and aggro from other side of camp and it probably wont get hit. Am I thinking incorrectly?
 
i use on mine and it work since 3 or 4 month i think (like pal splash ) :)

maybe you r right for |2 but not sure :)

It looks to have the same ae range as deadening wave - 30. I couldn't find anything in the How-To pertaining to |2 under MezSpell so idk. It seems like if I have 3 mobs, the chanter single casts mez and if I have more than 3 she casts the aoe mez spell even though I have it set at |2. Maybe it's miscounting the mobs by ignoring the tanks target and counting the one add as only 1 mob so it doesn't trigger a mez?
 
You made me look thru the code haha:
Rich (BB code): 
        /call LoadIni Mez MezSpell              string      "Your Mez Spell"
        | necros can't AE mez
        /if (${Select[${Me.Class.ShortName},BRD,ENC]}) {
            /call LoadIni Mez MezAESpell            string      "Your AE Mez Spell|0"
            /declare MezAECount                     int         outer ${MezAESpell.Arg[2,|]}
            /varset MezAESpell                      ${MezAESpell.Arg[1,|]}
        }

There is no parsing of MezSpell like there is for MezAESpell. I don't see how MezSpell|2 will work. Even if it manages to find a SpellName out of it, it can't honor |2.

Bafflement only has an AERange of 30, which is what I'm using on my ENC currently. I will have to revisit how to best implement AEMez. The splash also has a AERange of 30 but requires setting your target ring... thinking...

- - - Updated - - -

I use AEMezSpell to |3 after much trial and error. You have the current mob tank is fighting (1), you have an add (2) so should single mez the add, if there is another mob (3) then cast AE. That has proven accurate for me.

I still need to decide now between Anondyne, Bafflement, and Deadening Wave. I'm glad this all came up!

[EDIT]
I might as well throw Chaotic Bewildering into the decision...

Mine doesn't mez when I have (2) though and only single target mezzes on (3). It requires >3 mobs before the aoe mez comes out.
 
Even tho its AE|2? That is certainly peculiar, I wonder if its something specific to the spell. Using |3 has been working perfect on my bard. I am new to ENC so I am interested in how this plays out.
 
Yeah it wouldn't work with |3 so I bumped it down to |2 and it still doesn't fire off normally. Not sure if it's just an enchanter bug but I'll set up the bard for mezzing and see if it works proper for him.
 
bafflement is only a stun ae for 6 sec with 10 sec recast ... it s not a mez for cc in my opinion :)
for deadening wave the pb is you can be mezzed too when you use this spell

good idea for chaotic bewildering , will try and probably use on my chanter , thx darkie :)
 
Just tried it with the bard and he isn't firing off single target mezzes either on double pulls. :|
 
Bafflement Rk. II:
  • Causes your target and several creatures nearby to fall into an enchanted sleep for up to 6 seconds, with a 25% chance that each creature will become drowsy and fight more slowly. Creatures that are affected have a 7% chance to forget their enemies.

That sounded appealing to me. Now, I suppose its prudent to point out, I am using the ENC in a fast-grind situation where the mobs don't live but 10 seconds... In a 'real content' situation I prolly wouldn't use it.

My bard:
Rich (BB code): 
[Mez]
MezOn=1
MezRadius=50
MezMinLevel=75
MezMaxLevel=108
MezStopHPs=80
MezSpell=Slumber of Silisia
MezAESpell=Wave of Torpor|3

Works perfectly. Mob 1, left alone, mob 2 single mez, mob 3 AE mez with singles thrown when a mob breaks (due to long recast of AEMez). Change your AE |2 to |3.
 
I got it working. I had XTarget[1] set to Tank's Target. Put it back on Auto and now they're mezzing normally.
 
There is no reason to AE mez with just 2 mobs in camp. 1 mob should get picked by MA and the other would be single mezed. What you need to look for is the mob count being returned by mobcount for the mez routine. Most likely the mobcount being returned is not what you expect.
 
I only set it to 2 for testing because 3 wasn't working. I put it back to 3 now that it's working properly.
 
AND... before I changed it months ago, the KA Wiki had it at |2 in the only example... Early in the year I posted about it, but ppl dint understand what I was askin... so after much testing, I simply changed it.

Technically, AE|2 would work (albeit wasteful). Add is detected, AE fires, but from what I remember from my testing, single mez would fire immediately after thus rendering the AE moot (until a 3rd+ show up).
 
Update: MezSpell=Chaotic Bewildering & MezAESpell=Anodyne Stare|3 have been working great! Thx all for the suggestions!
