Question - Forcing assist

[Boring]

This may have already been answered (I did search for about 30 min but did not find what I was looking for).

Event: Heros are Forged

Setup: Group leader and main assist: SK. Rest of the group mix of melee and casters in Mode 2 (Chase/Assist) SK camp = 50. SK set as Vorpal, Rest of the group camp= 60. Mob is well within camp range (although should not be an issue since everyone else is mode 2)
[BGCOLOR=initial]Blob (or spider, or lich) spawns. They sit there for about 5 or so seconds before they activate. During this time, you can attack. SK attacks. Everyone else stands there doing nothing until the mob shows up on Ext Target, THEN they start hitting, casting etc.[/BGCOLOR]

Is there a way to FORCE the group to start attacking before the mob shows up on extended target?

I had this problem with killing the archers too (In Final Fugue): The entire group runs to the archers. SK attacks. Rest of the group sit there doing nothing since the archers are never on extended target? I had to tab over to all other toons to get them to manually engage.

I will also randomly encounter this when I am fighting in a group and one of the toons dies. The cleric rezzes the toon, and they sometimes sit there doing nothing - even if I cycle them manually through Mode 1 or 2 trying to get them to start to attack. I can usually get them to engage if I target any other target THEN return to my target I was attacking. Then they will jump back into action. I tried this trick with the archers but it did not work. They still just stood there.

assme hotkey in the hotkeys guide.

I actually don't have this problem and I'm assuming because I assistat 100

But the assme key is the ticket

Re: rezzes - yep, your ma needs to clear and reacquire their target.

eq/mq clears your main assist info on death, and the main assist needs to re-get it

I have everyone assisting at 100 so I don't think that is it.

Good to know the rezzing thing happens to others as well and that clearing/reacquiring the target is the fix.

I will look again in the Getting started. I have watched it a few times fully but it is getting a bit large and going through the entire video and forum is becoming daunting when you are looking for one specific command. (I did re-read all the SK commands and skimmed over the getting started thread.

Well I did tell you specifically what to do. Which is go to the hotkeys and get the "assme" hotkey.

I link the sticky because all of the stuff is inside the sticky then I can tell you what to grab from the sticky and I can link you the one thing.
