Mage pet support? Not sure why but mages aren't using their pets, their dmg is still pretty high with this plugin.

I just stripped out my DPS rotation and left KA to do pet stuff
I entered a /nuke help and it went into an endless loop. I had to unload it to stop it. It spammed everyone on the EQBC server regardless of channel.
There were commands in the dump that would be useful, and while I have completed a Evelyn Woods course in my youth, I couldn't get many of them. The complete list would be useful in the OP.
I am getting 40k to 60k on my mage with little futzin. About 20k more than KA alone. They work great together. I have my summoned weave items handled by KA, as well as buffs, etc. And its fast.

Hey JimBob,
I tried this for the first time on a fresh 105 wizzy. I had previously been using it on my mage, or occasionally on a wizzy that is misbehaving and I don't want to futz with AFN2.mac. I used the memorize function and it left the first gem slot blank. I just stuck dicho in there but I would like to know what spell I am missing. Since meming spells only happens when you manually fire it, perhaps you can have it post a MQ2Win msg for the spell it is trying to mem. Hell, even if it resorts to a lesser spell, it would be helpful to know that we have a less than optimized spell-book.
Any progress on the wiki?

Hell, the more I think about it, we kinda need a list of the optimal spell line for all the DPS classes; Wiz, Mag, Dru, Bst, etc.

Yeah, sorry I haven't updated it lately. Been a little busy (car issues, raids, kids, etc...). I thikn dicho was supposed to go in that first slot. I will make some time tonight to check, and update the wiki. I can give you my wizard dps lineup, but the others came from other players. I can tell you the plugin preferences for the classes I have programmed though. If you have a better lineup, I can implement it in the plugin.

Wiki updated to include spell set. Slot 1 is Dicho. It does not cast in the memorization order, so if you use keybinds tied to gems, it won't be ideal.
- - - Updated - - -
I presume it's not finding Dicho properly, because there are 2 in the spell book. One you can memorize, and one that you can't (level 255). I presume it's finding the high level one instead of the other. I'll see what it will take to fix. As long as I don't have to rewrite GetSpellByName, I think it will be okay.

By the way, I use the hell out of both of my plugins.

Thx JimBob!
For anyone wondering, aforementioned wiki is here

If you are referring to MQ2Heals, man, tough call, AutoCleric is working so damn good I simply have zero incentive to try anything else. However, a plugin will be faster, and MQ2AFNuke is so damned impressive, I will check it out.
Where do I send a krono or donation to?

I think the Bst Lineup might need to be rethought on this with the changes to the DoTs. This is STILL a hella boost to my Mage. And Enc can do some real Dmg too (if your not worried about Mezzing), but might also need to re-think that line-up as well (again DoT changes).
As for MQ2Heals Plugin: Still WONDERFUL!!!!!! For ME its the versitility. I choose spell line up, and I can use it with Shaman AND Druids as well. Its NOT as simple set up as AutoCleric (Witch works AUSOME as well), but allows for better control as you can run a mac (such as KissAssist) at the same time...which will allow you to use various unique Items and AA's that others may not, or to use Specific buffs others may not.

I don't have a BST, but if you have lineup suggestions, let me know. I do have an enchanter, and she's an aggro magnet since the DoT changes. She pulls more aggro than my wizards... I have a mage, but I rarely play him, so if you have any suggestions there, I'll definitely consider them at the least.

I definitely plan to look into that. Synergies will basically change everything. Spell lineup, cast orders and priorities. I will just have to figure out the best way to make it all work together.
- - - Updated - - -
I heard they recently changed some of the synergies, but I haven't been on beta in a few days. Do you have any suggestions on priorities and casting order with the current system?
They changed the enchanter synergy to work on all DD types. So you need a few changes to not waste the buff. I've made these changes to afnuke macro.
If you have Conjurer's Synergy never cast any fire nuke that's not Ethereal fuse/Skyblaze. IF you have Conjurer's and fuse isn't up cast cold nukes so you can use the buff on your highest damage DD. Do not waste it on claw of the flameweaver.
If you have Beguiler's Synergy Fuse > Skyblaze > Rimeblast > Ethereal Flash NEVER waste it on claw.
You have 9s after getting Beguiler's Synergy to use it and not waste another proc from enchanter and 12s for Conj. So you have time to wait for Fuse to refresh.
I tried this on my mage and he was nuking his buff off but was going on almost every mob (his gear does suck and is ftp ATM) but it there a way to put a delay between casts? Say if I have 4 nukes up he will go through all 4 nukes then maybe delay 4 or 5 seconds before doing another round?
I'll be updating MQ2AFNuke in the near future. I might add a delay option, but really, just don't mem ethereal fuse, and turn off the AA nukes, and you should be fine. Of course, your DPS will suffer. As for the orb, that's an easy addition. I am not sure about chaotic fire... I'll have to look at the mage spells and see where it would fit in the rotation (unless you want to provide said info).
I think optimal rotation is RS-Spear(105)-Chaotic-spear(100) since RS triggers a focus with new aa's chaotic is like wiz claw line, so can trigger twincast etc.Orb on cooldown.
Theres a new pet discipline aa /pet swarm which I'd also like to get included, basically it directs out of combat swarm pet to ur target, so you wont "waste" them standing there on fast kill scenarios.
I really like this plugin for the mage, consistantly hitting over 100k dps avg over an evening of combat

You're leaving out Meteoric Bolt on the cool down for the other 3 - it doesn't happen often but it does. It's also better to use than the 95 spear. And just for clarity, don't forget to keep the AA nuke in the weave between casts.
As for /swarm and /qswarm... I think that may be beyond the scope of the plugin's purpose but it'd sure be nice. I obviously have no clue on the logistics of it but either way I'd still be happy. Chaotic Fire is a definite add for sure though IMO.
Hmm you can chain chaotic, 105 spear, 100 spear, so why bother with bolt? but yes definate also weave aa nuke in there.
Well since it uses RS it might aswell use /pet swarm command as it adds a good chunk of otherwise wasted dps
It will take some work to include the swarm component. I'll have to figure out how to tell if you have swarm pets, and if they're already on your target or not. After that, it's not so bad. As for the Chaotic Fire spell, I've added it to my source code. It should cast between spears and bolts... I also added the Firebound Orb to the "clickies" list.

Other than maybe in a raid where you can have 15+ pets on a mob, Storm of Many does not really do alot as far as dmg. It isn't really a very good group spell even if you have a pet based group. It does become difficult to bring enough pets to bare in a single combat (even on a named) to make this spell worth while. And even then I believe that other spells would still outshine the dmg done by this line.
Note: I can usually bring 11 to 15 (depending on certain spell procs) in any one combat and 20-30 on a named during a burn (I have ALOT of clicky swarm pets), and have never seen this spell do the dmg one would hope for. Mind I do not have EoK so there may be an increase due to this expansion, but as of yet in a pure DPS capacity I wouldn't use it.

The spell is in the lineup now was mostly why i mentioned it, however-
I would agree with you, and I can't say to have parse proof, but they changed the spell in EoK to-
Slot 1: Deal 3720 damage if 1 or 2 pets on target
Slot 2: Deal 7812 damage if 3 to 5 pets on target
Slot 3: Deal 12927 damage if 6 to 9 pets on target
Slot 4: Deal 20753 damage if 10 to 14 pets on target
Slot 5: Deal 32101 damage if 15 or more pets on target
Also it procs theft of essence which for swarm pets-
Increase Chance to Avoid Melee by 26%
Increase HP when cast by 10000
Increase Max Hitpoints by 10000
Increase ATK by 2750
and regular pets-
Increase Chance to Avoid Melee by 26%
Increase HP when cast by 10000
Increase Max Hitpoints by 10000
Increase ATK by 750

Ideally it would only use storm of many when atleast 6 pets are on the target, but I realise that may not possible to work out.

I'll look to see if there's a way to determine the # of swarm pets you have, and if you have a regular pet (as a mage you should), Then determine if it's worthwhile to cast the "of many" line. Right now, I believe it fires before the spears if it's up.

It uses the TOTAL number of pets on the mob (either fr group or raid), so there must be a way to determine how many pets total are on a mob. But even with 15+ pets it still is a bit underwhelming IMO. The added attack might be nice but the avoid/HP usually isn't usually needed (at leat for me) unless your pet tanking...
But to each his own, if you think it works for you, then yes it would be go to get I to go off at the correct time, when it would be the most effective.

Does this work on TLP at all? I have tried with Wiz and druid. I activate and turn nuke on or use the resume command and nothing. I tried the memorize but it looks like that may be coded to a specific lineup. There's no way to change the spell list so it can be used outside of a level 105?
Memorize is for level 105 wizard. As for the rest, I may not have coded it for lower level spells. I started a combined plugin where I think I went down to level 1 though.

I added the spells down to level 1 for the wizard in my copy. I'll upload it a bit later.

It's included with the normal Vanilla compile now - you just need to enable it by default in the updater or load the plugin in-game. Of course with the patch the whole thing is currently down so it doesn't matter at the moment.
Thanks kindly.
Yeah, just joined for level 2 access and was looking forward to seeing what my 105 enchanter can with the default macro loaded. Hopefully the MQ thingy gets patched soon.
There's a lot to read on this forum on how to load, adjust and configure these macros and plugins. A little overwhelming for a 50+ hardware type of person but with such a nice responsive community I think Ill get by. Dumb questions ok after I use search function first right?

Search first; dumb after is the best philosophy like you said
I think you'll love AFNuke although I can't comment on it from an Enchanter standpoint since my Ench is my main but if it's anything like the Druid, Mage, or BST plugin settings you will rock provided you load the right nukes for the weave. You'll also probably want to use a combo of this plugin plus KissAssist (macro) to maximize your Enchanter or any toon. I've just found Jimbob's plugin to be the best DPS over KA.
So after your update that would mean that whatever spells my sub 105 wiz had loaded it would use? Any chance to add druid low level nukes to your wish list of things to add some time? I am really looking forward to seeing how differently this performs compared to straight kiss. Thanks Jimbob, I look forward to trying the wiz for now!
