Tip - LDoN [Kick Adventure]

[TheFiddler]

I recently ran another 6 toons through flagging in all LDoN zones.
Due to needing to constantly rotate thru all six toons to drop the Adventure to request the new one, I created a button for my group lead to have all in group drop the Adventure and I figured I would share it in case it may be useful to others.

FYI - Reading notes I could find on LDoN, some folks were saying some zone is only associated with Normal Risk or this other zone is only associated with High Risk. I can tell you in practice, all zones can be in Normal or High, and can be entered from any entrance where there are 2 possible entry points. It is all random. Everfrost and North Ro I did 100% High Risk and completed all zones for all 6 this way. I did Butcherblock 100% on Normal. Generally, it appears that the Adventure Request NPC will give about 2 to 4 in one location for starting then the next 2 to 4 in the other location where there are 2 possible entry points. There were only a few times in Everfrost where the NPC had me swapping between the two entry points after 1 Adventure per location. Having multiple toons and having at least one in each location helped me eliminate some of the running around. Also for the Group Leader, standing in front of the Adventure Request NPC and targeting the Soul Binder and binding my soul there even at 60 units away then using multiple Bulwark of Many Portals (thanks to my Mage) to port back each time.

[CODE title="EQ Social Button" highlight="1"]
Social Name: ADV Kick Grp
/pause 3, /echo Kicking Group Adventures!
/pause 3, /bcga //notify AdventureRequestWnd AdvRqst_RequestButton leftmouseup
/bcga //notify ConfirmationDialogBox CD_Yes_Button leftmouseup[/CODE]

It does not matter if your Adventure Window is open, this will still kick your toons from any Group Adventure they are in. I have not tested this on Raid Adventures.

If you are curious what the code is to find the name of a window or button and use this same process to create your own social buttons like this, here below is the code I was provided years ago by Red or Maskoi or someone.... been a long time and I don't fully remember who provided me with this awesome info. Very Useful!

[CODE title="EQ Social Button" highlight="1"]
Social Name: WND NAME
/echo ${EverQuest.LastMouseOver.Name}[/CODE]

Usage:

• Set this up in a social and put on a bar so you can use from your keyboard input.
• Hover your mouse over a window title bar or button and click your new social to have an echo of the Window Title or Button Name in your MQ2 window.
• Create your own socials based on the Window + Button info just as the button example I have listed above for Kicking Group Adventures!
• Spread the knowledge for others to have an easier time in Norrath with less carpal tunnel wear and tear.

Are LDON considered shared tasks? If they are shared tasks could /kickp t save you some grief? If your social works, go for it and thanks for sharing your work. And thanks for sharing the tip for finding the window name. Will it also work for button names.

Be well. Happy coding.

Thank you!
I'm fixing to run my guys through LDON and this is right handy.

LDoNs Adventures predate the Task Window, they are technically, an "Adventure."
You have to have 3 minimum players to request a group Adventure. The players in the adventure cannot be modified or changed in anyway save to have all toons drop and get a new one after apx. 1min wait if you just got one.

The Leader of the group is the only one who can request an Adventure by right clicking the Adventure giver.
