MQ2Enchanter

Plugin - MQ2Enchanter (1 Viewer) 3.1.52471.11

My Enchanter, for some reason, keeps casting the mez spell none stop on the mob that the group is fighting. He will Tash, start to cast the slow spell but then mid cast the casting changes to the mez spell. Once it cast the first time, it continues to do it until it runs out of mana, or I unclick the Usemez box. I need help on this, please.

you didn't specify - but is this mq2enchanter? since you said "unclick the usemez box"?

moved to the mq2enchanter thread.

are you not using "AutoMezImmune" and they *are* in fact, immune? if so you should either A: use AutoMezImmune or B: add them to your immune list

you can use the "Immune Tab" and click the add to mez immune list

or you can target the mob and type /enc mezimmune


Unless you mean ChaoticMez

Q. Why does it cast Chaotic on the mob we're fighting?
A. We use Chaotic for purposes of the twincast it gives.

If you don't want it to use Chaotic you can /enc UseChaotic off
 
Today noticed that if UseXtargBuffing and UseNightsTerror is turned on, enchanter running MQ2enchanter on Test server was trying to spam boon of garou on an out of group tank, preventing any other spells from being cast. Once I set UseNightsTerror to off, everything worked as expected.

you would need to determine why it wasn't taking hold and resolve that.

Q. Chain Casting NDT?
A. Double-Check that you don't need to add the illusion to your blocked buffs / pet blocked buffs. Sic explains this in the MQ2Enchanter Pre-Release video > HERE <

Thanks, eqplayer16, that did the trick.

Sic I had this happen today as well. Rizlona Lvl 65 enchanter. During the fight after using strangle, my enchanter would chain cast bliss. Only mob in camp and was actively engaged by MA and rangers.

I had the same issue last night with my enchanter chain mezing the same mob in EW(TOV) over and over again which the group was fighting.

Mob wasn't immune, but... it happened when I was rotating group "Main Assist" through each group member. Seems that broke something, so I simply disbanded my group and logged everyone out then back in to the game again and it was fixed.
My rogue merc is on my enchanter and I was trying to find a way for the merc to not attack mobs being pulled until they are in the camp (dude is eager and likes to run out and get agro), but changing the MA didn't work.

None of the questions asked have been answered. Check the message you quoted and answer those questions.

Also worth asking what class your MA was.

sounds like an eqbug - i've heard people with main assist not "clear" properly. but yeah probably should re-create your group if you get an eq bug with your group ma

Pally (MA), Cleric, Shaman, Ranger, Ranger, Enchanter. I didn't rotate anything, Pally was always the MA pulled a Crystalline Crawler single. Stunned it a few times. Chanter Tash, Strangle, then cast bliss over and over and over.. I am not sure how being mez immune functions in my senario. It was the only mob in camp and engaged why cast bliss at all?

does this happen to happen when your paladin goes and targets someone else? like healing or something?
 
It isn't taking hold because it cannot be cast out of group. Is there a way to differentiate buffs so that they won't try to cast them on xtarget in this case?
View attachment 30340
see, now that some good information - I guess the earlier version of that line are only party member, unlike later versions. --- yup, literally *only* garou

I'll take a look at it
 
@eqplayer16 you're unfortunately on test server? (unfortunate because i can't rebuilt everything for test right this moment)
 
@eqplayer16 @Searlas

Thanks for the infos - update will be in next patch

MQ2Enchanter - Boon of the Garou XTarget Update
- Boon of the Garou, from the NightsTerror line is ONLY group, not single like the other spells from the line.
-- If your NightsTerror spell is "Boon of the Garou" we will now only cast it upon grouped members, and not XTarget members.
- Thank you for the red eq error msg information eqplayer16 & Searlas
 
Hi Sic,

Is there a way I can set mq2enchanter to cast Pulmonary Grip as if it was a dot? I believe you answered before its used more as a nuke but with a 19K mana pool my pocket enchanter is draining its mana pool fast.

Thanks!

no - it on cwtn's "todo" list to adjust the behavior for lower level, but no, not at this time.
 
So How can I make my chanter Not Use Deciving Stare?
Deceiving stare is part of the TargetRingAEMez line
you can turn off usemez if you don't want to mez - /enc usemez off
or byos and not have it memorized. /enc byos on

Ok Cool Thanks. I was hoping There was a way to just not use it because I was in ToFS and I think the AE part pulled a crap load of mobs. I guess I could try Byos. I am done for now but will play with it later thanks Sic
 
Or it could be
(a) really really sh1tty pathing, since like the original ToFS
(b) social characteristic akin to kobolds in Crushbone or gobbies in Droga
(c) AE aggro getting popped on your tank
(d) considered an ‘accelerated experience opportunity’ or
(e) Dollar Tuesdays - buy 1 get 20 free
 
On TLP (Rizlona) I noticed that once I got my lvl 65 group haste, my enchanter no longer casts haste on my groups' pets. I know pets can't receive group buffs until later expansions (we're on PoP now). I'm fine loading up single target haste and buffing them manually, but thought I'd let ya'll know.

nah, that's an easy fix. We do similar stuff like that for other pet stuff, I'll add that update
 
Is there any way to change a spell to "mash"?
Disclaimer: I don't own the plugin I'm asking for someone who plays chanters ( I like bards myself ((not cool about the April fools joke this year Sic =-P)) )
Specificly they want their chanter to always keep the "Mindrift" spell on cooldown as it offers a serious buff in dmg to the mages/Wizards in the group. is there any way we can make it happen on the uses end? or would that have to be coded into the plugin? and either way the "How?" is my question here =-)

it uses the synergy spell line. and it uses it at different times depending on burn buffs or if it has other duties to perform like mezzing and debuffing.
there is no such thing as "mash" in the plugins - it uses what is available to them based on the combat routine we make for the.

your friend should come and post instead of someone who doesn't even use the plugin.
 
Redbot updated MQ2Enchanter with a new update entry:

- Added missing CheckBuffsTimer.
- made the iMiscGemSlot for easier buff changing/editing.
- Added the Spell Guard lines of spells.
-- Also added options
- Added Missing useshieldoffate...

Level 54 Enchanter, on Rizlona, all spells mem'd for current level and era (PoP). I notice that mq2enchanter tries to mez everytime a mob is pulled into camp, even when it's a solo pull and there are no other engaged mobs. Is this intentional? It seems like it shouldn't try to mez if only one mob on xtarget... Also, sometimes the enchanter will run out to the mob when it is incoming (even with only a single pull). Most of the time that's not a problem, but if the pull is undead, then they stop and attack the enchanter as he's the closest target. Sometimes he runs all the way outside of the camp radius so the tank won't even try to engage. Note, group is shd,clr,enc,bst,mnk,rog all using CWTN class plugins.

it will run to the mob to get LOS if you are not in manual mode - so if you don't want it to get los, use manual mode. This is also possible if you are using tashthenmez, and and for some reason the mob was previously aggressive to your group. You might consider turning that off

We don't try and mez your MA's Target, so you might consider pulling with your MA. If you're MA isn't targeting it, we're going to assume that you want it mezzed since you're not trying to kill it.
 
Ahh, thx for the reply! You nailed it on both responses. I did have tashthenmez turned on and I was using monk to pull and SK as MA.
 
Another question about same enchanter as above (L55 now): Now pulling with SK (MA) and enc no longer casts Mez on a single mob pull. However, it also doesn't always engage. I have the enchanter setup for UseTash and UseSlow (not AoE versions), along with UseNuke (set to only above 80 mana). Most of the time, the Enc never engages (it actually never targets the single mob) the pulled mob if a only 1 is pulled or only 1 left. If I manually target the mob (such as using Tab) it will then tash and slow. Also, if I turn on UseMelee, it will tash and slow automatically.

Any ideas?

i would possibly reform your group since you say that you have MA assigned, but it doesn't sound like it is doing it.

I would also ensure you have your campradius the size you want to have it. the mob needs to be in your campradius to do stuff - if the mob is outside of that red circle (the camp radius) we're not going to assist to engage it - I would double check the MA is assigned, and your campradius value is appropriate.
 
I may have asked before, i cant remember and have been trying to look through the comments here, but is it possible to add a toggle on the set up for the Enchanter to Tash before charm... having the tash on the charm pet really helps keeping it from breaking the charm spell early

nah, there isn't currently a way to do that
 
In the past week i have been noticing that if i dont actively click on my enchanters play window for a longer period of time (more then an hour) the spell book gets stuck open and the chanter will no longer cast any sells whatsoever until i click back to that toon hit escape to close spell book and then program works like normal again.. If anyone sees anything wrong in my set up please let me now.. Group is a 115 mage 115 chanter 114 Zerker 113 Cleric and 110 Druid

howdy kdz, sounds like you have your background frames set too low.

MQ2Enchanter FAQ

Q. I sometimes get stuck in my spell book?
A. This is often due to your background fps not being high enough. It is strongly advised to utilize at LEAST 30 fps for background, recommended 60+ background fps. The fps cycle for eq is where "work" is done. If your background fps is set to "min" you can and will have undesired results with all sorts of automation activities.
Alt-O -> Display -> Advanced - > Max Background FPS
You will also need to check if you are using any external background fps limiting software - like isboxer - and adjust that accordingly.

Thanks so much for the reply... The FPS was set low actually to min for cpu for some reason I just bumped it up to 60FPS will give it a shot and see what happens

Thanks again
 
ive noticed this occasionally over the past week also :-/ FPS set to 70 (ish). I have started having the enchanter (s) melee to overcome it. I noticed it by watching agro meter, and seeing the chanters staying blank, pop over and they are daydreaming in the spellbook
