Question - Looking for utility to do raidinvites whenever a group gets a named, so all peer's will get the hunter achievement

[Nightmare327]

I could have sworn I saw a recent post for something to do this, but for the life of me, I cannot find it when I do a search. My search-fu has failed me on this one.

Are other groups actively hunting or randomly in other zones? I ask because what happens when named is dead? Do they stay in raid?

I thought I read that it would then drop the raid. I couldnt find any posts by @Theicon about it, so I may end up writing my own

Its mainly for older zones, just trying to get the hunter achievements for them as needed on all the toons I can. Right now I have a hotkey to send invites to everyone, but have missed a few because I forget what tab that hotbutton is on

I let him know you might be interested via discord.

why not just stay in a raid format?

 

[Nightmare327]

In some cases I am leveling some toons, so want to maximize the XP gain. I was PLing some toons to 120 today and saw a named was being pulled, but couldnt find my hotkey before the mob died was what started me thinking about iot.

You could try this resource to handle the peer invitations.

yes sir! I had just found that and watched it, and planned on incorporating it into my script, either calling it or somethign like that.

run this on all your group leaders/characters actively hunting
whenever a named is detected it will invite the other groupleads/characters when named is dead and looted it does a kickp raid (which preserves the groups just kicks everyone out of raid)
you must have autoaccept set on all group leaders/character to accept raidinvites
uses spawnmaster to detect named.

e.g
group0
Lua run raidinvite grouplead1 grouplead2 characterXYZ groupleadX
group1
Lua run raidinvite grouplead0 grouplead2 characterXYZ groupleadX
[BGCOLOR=initial]group2[/BGCOLOR]
[BGCOLOR=initial]Lua run raidinvite grouplead0 grouplead1 characterXYZ groupleadX[/BGCOLOR]
[BGCOLOR=initial]gro[/BGCOLOR][BGCOLOR=initial]up 0,1,2 is hunting named characterXYZ and groupleadX is standing in lobby chilling[/BGCOLOR]

Awesome job! There were things I did not know how to do, such as detect if the current target is a named, so this really helped. I will probably tweak it a bit, maybe use the other raidinvite Lua that invites all the dannet connected peers to the raid, but this looks exactly like what I wanted to do. Thanks a lot!

The fact that it allows you to run this on multiple toons really helps also, as I try to slaughter the lower level zones to try and get all of the hunter achievements. My OCD at play here

I posted my hunter helper lem in the lem library thread Will raid invite any one on your friend's list when you target a named. Then 5 seconds after it is dead kick players back to groups.
