An Idea for a future feature for the AAspend Plugin.

Would it possivle to get a new function on the Brute method called Nocraft. It would simply skip the 10 (or so) crafting Mastery's and other crafting related AA's in the General section. It could even be driven by a ini setting for what skill to skip when in brute mode. For my style of play , and maybe others aa grining , that would be a quick way to skip dumping and setting up INI's for each class (yes i am lazy, but this is why we use VV).

/AAspend Brute nocraft (or something like that).

Thanks for considering it.

To skip those I honestly just change the buying order to put the general tab 2nd to last to get touched. I use order 53214
 
On Brute I am getting a constant spam message "Unable to train in ability." It is still working, it buys AAs perfectly fine but it constantly spams that message non-stop. Any ideas what causes it?

How do you exclude buying an AA? I want my shaman to skip languid bite.

To skip an AA you need to create a list of AAs to buy. There should be an example of how to do that in the mq2aaspend plugin section here.

Utility - MQ2AAspend

This plugin spends your AA points for you. It's as simple as, /plugin mq2aaspend load /plugin mq2aaspend brute on note that if you want to buy bigger items first you need to set a "bank" value this is what sic used when 200 was the max bank...

Not sure if this is a feature or a bug. When using aaspend brute on triggers the enabled / disabled 0 cost aa each time you gain an aa.
 
Well DBG’s owes us a free aa after the expansion patch, so maybe that’s it
 
I think this may have something to do with not owning the expansion, instead of being able to purchase the aa it just toggles it from enabled to disabled. Edit: or not, just looked and i have the expansion that it is toggling. Rogue class aa envenomed blade:disabled cost 0 / envenomed blade:enabled cost 40 instead of purchasing it just toggles, have enough aa to buy it at 40.
 
Figured it out. Thanks. had the DPS set in ini at envenomed blade:enabled removed the enabled and all good now.
 
Is anyone else having problem with this plugin purchasing AA? I have brute force and on my bearserkers who are approaching max AA, the plugin is no longer purchasing and they keep maxing out their AA.
 
yes Mikey02, I had the same issue with coming up on max Zerk and max Shaman stopped too.. had to switch to manual spending for last couple 1k.
 
Seems like the issue is resolved once I purchase the last ranks of Distraction Attack on zerker. Now it's working normally again with brute force on and AA bank functionaility.

Doesn't look like the plugin like the toggleable AA if it's the last one on the class tab.
 
I have this set up to bank 200, then brute on and set my order 5321. It works great on 5 out of 6 of my toons but my bard just keeps letting his AA cap. He will spend them the first time he gets to 200 AA then he lets it cap at 230 but everyone else does exactly what they should do spend wise. It's odd.
 
If your class tab have an aa that is toggleable, max it out and the plugin will work again.
 
Looks like with "/aaspend bonus on" that Fishing Mastery is purchased, but no other tradeskills are.

Mine got maxed out, but that was a few weeks ago.

On a similar topic, being able to toggle tradeskills off when brute forcing would be my number 1 ask! It's several thousand AA's I don't want on 99% of my toons, it's the main reason I don't use brute force most of the time. e.g.

INI: 
BuyTradeSkills=0
 
Is there an option to buy any AAs that have 0 cost? or buy all veteran AAs?

I could order it to buy the special aas first, but then it would buy the fireworks
 
Hey, I'm having an issue where one of my zerks on test isn't buying aa's. here is the ini:

[MQ2AASpend_Settings]
AutoSpend=0
BruteForce=0
BruteForceBonusFirst=1
BankPoints=0
SpendOrder=35214
[MQ2AASpend_AAList]

It's the same as another char who is working fine. I've reloaded the ini and the plugin, no change. Any ideas? Thanks!

well, you either need to specify a list of AAs with autospend on - or use bruteforce=1 (i also personally do a large bank like 200)
 
I switched it to brute mode and changed the bank threshold to 100 but he still isn't spending anything once he hits the threshold (he isn't anywhere near the aa cap either). I had the bonus aa spend working fine up until today and I didn't change anything in the ini.

Love your hotbuttons by the way, huge help on Griklor!
 
hmm, looks like it may have had to do with not being able to purchase a specific aa "Distraction attack : Enabled". I manually purchased it and I believe it's working now. TY for the response.
 
Can you specify that you don't want AAs to be purchased beyond a certain amount, even when using brute?

For example, I have completed my Class tab and want to focus on the Archetype tab on my SK, but I don't want him dumping any more points into Companion's Fortification/Fury/Divine Aura. Can I set it up to continue to brute by, but skip those specific AAs?

Trying to avoid setting up an entire ini if at all possible.

Not while using brute. You need to specify the AAs you want it to buy and the rank you want them to stop at.
 
So Im having an issue with aaspend.

[MQ2AASpend_Settings]
AutoSpend=0
BruteForce=1
BruteForceBonusFirst=0
BankPoints=0
SpendOrder=32541

These are my settings but its still just buying shit from the general tab first. Is there anyway to fix it?

Try assigning BankPoints a value. I usually do BankPoints=200 on everyone.

lol you pm'd me, so i got up and stopped what i was doing and instantly responded =p and then you made a post anyhow.

So I insert this into the toons file? or what? I tried the AAspend plugin and that thing is crazy over my head lol
 
After you type the items like SIC .. btw I always change bank to 220 so u can actually buy the big ones if u want.

But type :
/aaspend load - Reload ini file
/aaspend save
/aaspend status ---- to see if Brute is on.

In your MQ2 folder for your toon in the release folder : Server_toonname

[MQ2AASpend_Settings]
AutoSpend=0
BruteForce=1
BruteForceBonusFirst=0
BankPoints=220
SpendOrder=32514

This is what mine look like and it works like a charm on all my toons.
 
Just in case it wasn't clear, "bank" makes aaspend wait until it has that many aa's to spend any.

You can use /aaspend brute now to make it buy something immediately with what it has, if something is available. Brute now is also nifty to see if aaspend is having an issue. I noticed the enable/disable AAs can trip it up sometimes. I've had to manually buy those on pretty much all of my toons.
