Hello, I have hit a point with my boxed group that I can no longer pull solo mobs. The issue is that my tank (SK 62) will aggro one mob at a time and wont pull or even try to pull aggro off the others in the group,
Please if someone can help me that would be great. Thanks so much for taking the time to read this and / or help me.

Here is info I think you would want to know.
Group: SK, CLR, BRD, Mage, RNG,BST all of them are the same level 62 at this time.
Puller: Bard, pulls with no issue and has the roll of "PULLER" in his ini file.
Tank: SK, holds agro on only one target at a time. Has "TANK" roll in his ini file (file is down below in post).
Rest of the party has the "ASSIST" roll

How i start the group: Move to spot, make tank as MT and MA and mark Bard as PULLER in the EQ group window.
Have everyone target the SK and use /dgae mac kissassist

Eveything is great so long as its only one target at a time.

Here is the file .ini file for my SK: It was a copy from one of the premade files. But none of them seem to change targets to pull agro.

Your AE section is empty, SK dont have any AE you can use?
You have a bard, use it?

I don't think your SK gets any AE aggro spells/discs at that level. I would configure the bard to mez.

If the mobs are too high to mez then your group may have to just tough it out. Or you will need to stay active on the keyboard and manually change targets with your SK and let him grab aggro. Also, make sure you're keeping Voice of Terris on your SK to help with building aggro.

If your mage pet is set to taunt it would then pick up aggro on the original mob you engaged. Your group would continue to DPS the original mob down unless you manually initiate the /switchnow command on your other group members.

It gets much easier when you can use AE aggro spells on the SK and populate your AE section.

Finally there are 2 spells you could try per this old post on the game forums... https://forums.daybreakgames.com/eq/index.php?threads/low-level-sk-aoe-aggro.247328/

Is there no way to have the tank change targets on his own? He has no issue holding aggro if i could get him to change targets when he "sees" he dont have all the mobs aggro.

There's nothing built-in to KissAssist to do that. You'd have to code it yourself and use your code as an add-in. The thing is it won't be necessary in a few more levels when you get some AE aggro capabilities.
