no, otherwise there'd have been notes =p
the 120 one works as expected every time
it is something to do with how the spell is made differently than "every other single fucking spell we use" and some side case that isn't being accounted for, or something that is failing, or some eq nuance that isn't working.
when i have a fix/update/whatever, it'll be there

Hey Sic,
I'm playing a level 95 druid. I have my druid in DPS loadout. The plugin is loading the lvl 74 dot Sunscorch instead of the lvl 94 dot of the same name Sunscorch. I have tried moving both spells around in my spell book. Iv also tried loading the level 94 with BYOS turned on. It wont cast.
Also, thank you for all your plugins they have been amazing!

Hmm, it's casting on the MT in my group in LS zones with tank as MT/MA every time. Not sure but you might need to provide some more details for Sic/CWTN to reproduce.

we only cast it on MA
you are probably just looking at target instead of looking at whom it is being casted upon (both in output) and in actual buff landing. we'll swap back to the mob if we have stuff to do to continue to do stuff to the mob, but we only cast it on the MA
MQ2Druid does not seem to want to cast Chant of the Napaea (group corruption cure from the TSS era). I have the spell memmed with BYOS Custom enabled on my level 75 Druid for fights where it is needed. However, my druid will never cast this spell.
A quick search of the forum showed a post for a similar issue with MQ2Shaman from 2022 that appears to have been corrected.

need more context,
what does your "Group Cure Corruption" spell say for the spells we use
- Seller
- #454
And can you tell me, specifically the (or a) spell it isn't curing it on?
Here are some examples from Frostcrypt:

is there anyway to change the aura that is cast from Frostcloak Aura to Wildblaze Aura, I run a crew with mostly fire nukes and the druid herself uses fire nukes even though i have her set for mix she still insists to use fire I don;t care about what line she uses but if they are using fire then the wildblazed will be more beneficial.
Thank you Sic

not currently, dbg stopped having a heal aura after 70, and stopped having new fire ones after 97, so when i was doing options and spells i didn't put in a way to pick --- unfortunately this would mean someone lvl 150 in 2035 would end up using a lvl 70 aura because they didn't notice they adjusted something
in the meantime you can turn off useaura and manuall cast it
but just want to point out - auras all have a "fall off" --- 97 wildspark aura falls off at 105, so if you're current level, you're going to be getting none-benefit
Is it possible for CWTN plugins, such as MQ2Druid to cancel a cast of a nuke or DoT to cast a heal? I know at higher levels, it's not as big of a deal because nukes, and especially DoTs, cast much faster, but at lower levels, it can be a bit of a problem. For example, at level 75 I was just killing a boss in which I was using my druid as my only healer. My druid chose to cast a Nature's Blazing Wrath when my tank was at 14% health and then immediately followed it up with another nuke while my tank was now at 11% health. I have my heal threshold for MA set to 60%.
It makes no sense to me that the plugin would be trying to cast nukes while the MA is so far below the heal threshold. It also seems like it would be beneficial for it to be able to cancel a cast for a nuke to cast a heal instead in the event that a tank takes a large damage spike.

we check heals before we check nukes on all priest classes (and check emergency type stuff well before anything else)

It doesn't, but I'm just responding to what information you gave.
Nature's blazing wrath and then what secondary nuke?

so for wintershock to be loaded you're either byos or you are in dps loadout (which doesn't change priorities, but wanted to point that out since you're having "tank dying due to death" issues - you might want to use heal loadout)
we check everything in the heal section (obviously varies by level and aa available and spells loaded) which is ~13 AAs (including burn ones), 9 healing spells
then before winter's flame we check ~11 AAs before we check for dots and nukes, which there are 14 dots, and 3 nukes BEFORE winter's flame so it just sounds like an unfortunate timing situation - you should swap to heal loadout and perhaps increase your heal threshold so you have more time to resolve casting.
completely unrelated, I've been having random clients in a 6 man with 500 ping vs the others with 80 or 100 or whatever
and for me, this has - under some circumstances - caused similiar issues because the client thinks everyone is full health, and thinks the mob is safe to attack, so we do so, but from a different toon's screen that isn't the case
just something worth thinking about --- but i'd make the loadout and heal threshold adjustments and see how you fair

${EverQuest.Ping} (this was just recently fixed by brain)
The ping thing is an interesting point that I haven’t considered. I’ll have to look into that. The good news is that my tank didn’t actually die in this situation. I was able to swap windows to the druid quickly enough to pause the plugin, cancel the cast on my nuke, stabilize my tank with Convergence of Spirits (which was still available because MQ2Druid doesn’t seem to use it very often for some reason that I have to get figured out), and toss a couple of heals to get my tank topped off.
To be clear, this was not a large spike of damage that took my tank this low on hp. It took quite awhile to get him there. I can probably still pull up the logs for this if you’re interested. I think my druid cast a total of 5 healing spells (including I think 2 that I cast manually). My SKs self healing was able to handle most of the necessary healing which is why I was using the druid instead of my cleric for healing in the first place. I just wanted the fight to be over faster
For context I always run BYOS for all of my characters without exception. Some of the spell choices that the default load outs make in the level 70-75 range have been very questionable (i.e. the very low DPS stun + magic nuke for druids).
It’s possible that I’m just not the target audience for these plugins, but my experience so far has been that they play most classes well enough to kill stuff but they don’t play most classes well, at least not in the level range that I have experience with.

we use convergeance of spirit as one of the first things in our "omg MA is gonna die" situation if they are under 30% health and not a corpse. I'm, sure you are, but please make sure your sk is not only MT, but also MA in your group window, it is increasingly sounding like it isn't the MA.The ping thing is an interesting point that I haven’t considered.

Since it didn't seem to heal when you expected, and it didn't use convergence of spirit - it makes me feel like there is something amiss with what your toon perceived your MA's health to be at
the 70-75 range is definitely not the primary target range, and quite frankly, dbg's sloppiness in classes linear toolkit doesn't really normalize until 85+ even on TLP that become supported with MQ - the timeline is very accelerated compared to a live expansion, so having a "smooth flow" of abilities that evolve and upgrade is important to the "feel" of the automation during the leveling process.
if you have specific spell/spellgroup feedback on things that aren't useful please feel free to share (in pm or here is fine), some spell lines for various classes fundamentally change at a point, and some spells are just wholly useless (look at wizard with their ridiculously bloated nuke toolkit)

eq does (and always has) had a bug where if you zone, sometimes you have to click on someone to get updated with their health/mana, but it is usually seeing 0, not seeing something like they're full or high health --- which makes me wonder about the ping thing -
windtender's survival is checked first (which you dont get till 80)
then Survival of the fittest (78)
then conv of spirit
so if you don't have wildtender's survival AA or survival of the fittest spell
that would make conv of spirit the literal first thing we check everytime we go into the heal routine
What is the threshold for Convergence of Spirits BTW? Is it based off of your MA heal threshold or is it a static value? It’s possible that it actually cast right before I swapped to the druid’s window. My hotkey for the druid is Alt+E and my hotkey for Convergence is E so that key combo can be executed very quickly.
If the threshold is low, then it would make sense that my druid rarely casts it because I usually have the druid focused on DPS and the cleric focused on healing.

Using the portal search window a fair bit, very handy between this and the wiz I have. Maybe add in the translocate spells? Bind and guild.
One thing I find the tool tip on the icon of the wiz ver saying groip/self/evac invaluable because the colours are not too different to my eyes, so I need to read something. So adding that to the druid ver would be helpful
