Plugin - MQ2Bst 3.1.52471.11

[Sic]

There any reason that the plugin isn't using Focused Clamor of Claws for ST? It's in the ability list when you load the plugin, but it never uses it. I've checked the list of abilities during a fight, and I have the ability on my hot bar, to confirm it doesn't time out. Maelstrom gets used, but at 2+ (it's what I have my AoE set to). Not seeing a toggle for it either, so I'm curious.

edit: disregard, Kaen gave the suggestion that turning AoE off might make it use it, and he was correct. So, it use it, but only if AoE is turned off. Any reason that it won't use the ST version if only one mob is on the xtarget thing?

well Fclaws and claws share a timer, so I had it setup to use regular claws if you have useaoe on and the aoe count matched your settings, and the just use claws if not using aoe - but i guess it makes sense to use fclaws regardless, so i'll just remove the requirement of having no useaoe on, while retaining regular claws to require useaoe on and the aot count

As of 5/16/20 if the BST is in HunterTank mode and SlowAll is turned off, the BST will still cast Sha's Reprisal on every mob that it engages with.

Ok i'll look into this

its doing it because i'm using that AA for the pullAA instead of just going up and punching the mob

the toggle was to turn off trying to slow mobs while in normal combat routine (since we don't have immunity detection and such yet), not necessarily to turn it off for pulling purposes -the point of pulling with sha's is to pull with no damage, and be able to pull from ranged. the reason for the toggle off the slow for combat routine is a: the immunity/resist detection, and b: in case you don't want to waste the time casting the slow in the normal combat routine.

I'll look into it, but it is working as intended

As a follow up to be specific:

is your objection specifically what AA it is using for pulling, or is your objection that it is using any AA to pull?

Just noticed last night and this morning doing a /bst burnnow doesn't burn. it use to work with a bug of it not stopping after being activated once, but now it just doesn't do anything.

thanks for the info - we'll take a look at it - I had just added the burnnow stuff, but i can see how it might immediately burnnow off lol

Thanks for the response Sic. I thought it was a bug that it was slowing despite SlowAll being turned off. I see now that its just what the BST uses to pull with instead of Melee. Running up to Melee would be slightly faster but it's not a problem that the BST is pulling with slow. Is autostandonduck not working? My BST is staying ducked with that setting turned on if he ever ducks while pathing. It seems like if he ducks while in combat he will stand back up, but if he ducks while pathing due to a low ceiling or rock that has a protrusion that hits the BST's head he stays ducked.

Everyone except FD classes handle that on pulse. Will need more info from Sic on if ImDucking() function is causing issues with feigning to know if that check should be handled for those classes as well or if we just goofed up moving it. Thanks for the report.

 

[ChatWithThisName]

Seems I likely just didn't separate the autostand options when doing the FD Class specific autostandonfd logic. My fault. Will fix.

Again thanks for the fast response. I'm glad I could help and appreciate the time you put into this plugin.

you're welcome dude - we'll get the ducking sorted out. the reason i was asking so many questions about the pulling/slow thing is i was trying to figure out if there was a reason why casting it would be detrimental - like something that is a deal breaker (other than its a cast so you gotta stop and cast).
thanks for the response and for the infos on the ducking

I recently purchased a Metamorph clicky for my pet and tried using /bst addclicky downtime with it on cursor but it wont work. I tried offensive too. Is there a way to have the Bst use metamorphs?

Thanks in advance

Update. So it started working for downtime, however, it just spams it and pet shrink over and over again. I could put it in offensive but then that 1 second casting time cuts into dps. Is there a way around this?

no there is no addclicky for petbuffs atm.

it would require its own stuff since the buff goes a pet and not on your person - its "on the radar" for future updates for all the cwtn plugins since this functionality is a "shared' functionality

there is no way around it -if you put it in offensive or downtime, it is going to see if YOU have the buff from it, and if you dont, it will click it.

 

[Allurex]

i closed my mq2bst window and i forget what makes it come back up I tried the /reload ui etc

 

[wired420]

/bst show

It'll probably show up under your MQ2 window if you don't see it.

 

[ChatWithThisName]

@Allurex out of curiosity. Did you try any commands before posting? Wondering if I shouldn't add an additional method of opening the window that users might try often.

 

[Talron]

Maybe make it so the window doesn't disappear and only minimizes? many plugins seem to be coded this way.

I am a user of multiple CWTN plugins. I do find it a bit frustrating to have to use multiple commands for the different toons ie. /shd switchwithma on, /zerk switchwithma on, /.... maybe having a /cwtn as a command that would work on ALL toons types so I could do a /dgz //cwtn /switchwithma on and know that all my toons are covered.

 

[MrPatate]

I was wondering the same and asked to sic, there is an easy method:
1. Create a dannet or eqbc channels for cwtn's plugins,
2. Do a hotkey for the action you want: /noparse /bct nameofthechannel //docommand /${Me.Class.ShortName} switchwithma on

yup like mrpatate said - all the cwtn plugins are overloaded with class shortnames so you can do something like /noparse /bcg //docommand /${Me.Class.ShortName} mode 0 --- I have several examples in my hotkey resource

I noticed my Bst wasn't using vindication consequently now switching weapons. Any ideas? I thought maybe because I was using a beta version, but I purchased this morning and downloaded and replaced mq2bst dll....

not sure what you're asking - based on the output it looks like you might be under vindication now - is that possible?

vindication gets used when you have the buff from fury of frenzy of spirit

as far as the bandoswap - it will swap to 2hander during vindication, and then back to 1h/h2h outside of vindication assuming you have your bandoliers setup as explained in the video/commands/info

 

[luscian73]

MQ2BST simply wasn't using the combat ability at all. I do have the ability, it just wasn't utilizing it.

Edit: It is a discipline correct?

I did the /bst show worked I forgot that command line still new to using ur plugins friend just turned me onto ur mq2bst and mqeskay…. from kiss and ihc.. I will say so far im very impressed with the eskay and bst does outperform my kiss ini or ihc…

 

[Sic]

From the current mq2bst build right now

 

[luscian73]

Weird, 20 fights and my bst has yet to use Venon's vindication. Do beast only use it on boss fights?

Hey sic since the pull change Sha's Reprisal I can no longer pull with daggers is there a work around? Sha's pulling is getting me killed form time to time. Thank you.

Hey sic since the pull change Sha's Reprisal I can no longer pull with daggers is there a work around? Sha's pulling is getting me killed form time to time. Thank you.

sha's is a 200 range, so what about it over daggers is getting you killed more than daggers? what was range on your daggers that 200 isn't enough?

 

[itkit]

Mostly it's the mesh if I crest a hill with a mob on the other side they often agro Shas will cast regardless. Often times sha's will finish it's cast even while I am being hit. The dagger is thrown and usually I'm off strait away. Daggers can also often just throw right threw the games terrain even hills and threw corners. Throwing has it's issues too sometimes ill throw one then melee a mob if it's to close but sha's does this also. The real issue is the terrain.

p.s. can auto feign get a toggle for tank modes. I liked that feature. (I'll go do the final mission for my Staff of Viral Flux after the xp weekend and try that it would be the best option) I know it wasn't working in MQ2War when last I tried maybe I can test it in bst for you.
Thanks for your consideration and the great plugin

if you get aggro on xtarget it should start running back - I'll get with chat on that.

I don't want the FD classes to auto FD while they're in a tanking mode and/or assigned as MT/MA

My bst don’t use any paparon or focus paparon anymore. No idea. It was work well before patched.

might want to check mq2kissbuffs is loaded on everyone. now if that character does not have the correct section populated it is going to cast anything on them - which should stop the spam, but will skip those group members --- until mq2kissbuffs is completely fixed, there are going to be intermittent issues with anything that puts a buff on someone - like paragon/focused paragon - since we check they don't already have the buff on them.

Mine is firing as expected both focused and single

Just curious but the bst is burning all mana on every mob pull is this normal?

beastlords are very mana hungry - I have logic in here to handle being "smart" with your dots, since they take up a ton, and you can adjust that with the DotManaMin value - i explain this all in the video.

Between paragon/focused, my bsts of various gear and AA lvls are rarely below 80, unless if i have some named back to back because we wanna spaaaaaam blood

 

[Sidoculous]

My BL try to cast focus on my cleric over and over again when cleric has his own buff on. Maybe add a check or something thank you for the hard work.

it does have a check, probably mq2kissbuffs related, tho it shouldn't cast it unless it can overwrite.
watch the mq2bst video where i explain buffing and such

Hey sic,
My bsts are casting Horasug's over and over again, aggression in assist, protection in tank/hunter tank. It won't even run out and kill on huntertank mode, just sit there and recast horasug's. I've tried clicking it off to no avail. It may be an mq2kissbuffs issue, but i don't know how to fix it. Any help would be appreciated. According to the spell information window, i'm casting Horasug's rk. II, but the window on my pet display shows Rk. I. I don't know if that is just an error in the information window or if that is causing the issue.

I would try relogging (unloading and reloading the plugin might fix, but i suggest a log off, patch, and then log back in just in case) - however, did you somehow go gold to silver without getting kicked offline?

we cast the actual spell you have - so its possible if that changed without us knowing and updating that spell change that it would try and cast the wrong one. We track when your spells upgrade or lvl and then refresh them.

if you're in one of the tank modes (tank, pullertank, sicktank, or huntertank, you will do the petblock, otherwise you will do the aggression

for our own pet we don't actually use kissbuffs, we use the realdeal pet window for those. plus since it appears to be casting the wrong one, i'm a reload/restart will sort you out
