Question - Monk always wanting to get behind target...and falling into water/lave etc MQ2 Melee (1 Viewer)

[Krysea]

Hi there...wondering if there is any way to turn off where the melee gets behind the target? My husband is using monk as main (so not using KA) but monk wants to always get behind the target and he keeps falling into lava / water etc. Is there a way to turn this off? It is getting very frustrating. Thank you so much for your help and Happy Holidays!!!

It would help to understand what you are using, since not KA in order to best help you.

Mq2Melee uses Mq2MoveUtils for managing how you move around a target.

Utility - MQ2MoveUtils

MQ2MoveUtils was created in early 2004 by tonio, giving players a significant improvement over EverQuest's built-in /follow command, as well as a handy way for bards to run "circle" macros. As of 2022, the main features of MQ2MoveUtils are as...

I'm far from knowledged here but you can use the /stickcmd to specify how a toon orients to its target; behind? Left? Right? 20' away?

Command:/stick

/follow-like command, works for any pc|npc. Default distance is melee range. <code>/stick</code> with no parameters will stick you to your current target, using max melee range.

"behind" is the default'
"snaproll left" will orient on the left side of the mob
"front"

Change your stick setting in the ini file under the [mq2melee] section to be something that doesn't specify a rear arc. Alternatively, don't fight so close to water and lava that falling in is a possibility. Melee are best when fighting from behind because they avoid mob riposte
