Plugin - MQ2Eskay 3.1.52471.11

Hello, thank you both for the plugin and the video!!!!! Is there was a way to toggle pet use on/off?
nope - I did talk about this in the video you said you just watched =p

leave your bone chips in the bank if you don't want a pet.
 
Yep it sure does, I am 1 of the ten thousand SK's who choose to not use a pet most times, still old school enough where I pet pull a lot and choose which pet I want up and when. Just asked because you mentioned if enough requests for it you may put it in.
 
hrm no crashes here on live

what is happening when you crash? (as in what are you doing, and what happens)
Was in the lower library area in Chardok in Tank/Pull mode. Toon will do it's thing for about 15-20mins no problems. After that you'll start chain crashing. I'm about to log in and see if it's still doing it. Will report back with results.
 
Hoping someone can help me. When using the puller tank setting, what does Z Radius mean? Is there a way of seeing how far the pulling radius is?
 
to figure out a radius you can simply click on a mob and you'll then be able to see how far away it is from you.

this small clip shows that the mob is 9.80 feet from me

zradius is the up and down value, so if your pulling in a hilly area set this to something like 150-250, if you were in a dungeon and just wanted to pull a single level I'd set it to something between 10-50

/shd CampRadius ## - Sets the campradius to the value provided. If no value is provided it outputs the current value.
/shd Radius ## - This is your pull radius
/shd zRadius ## - This is your vertical pull radius


zRadius is the vertical pull radius that you want to look at, Vorpal is exactly correct - if you are in a hilly area, you want to ensure you're covering the top and the bottom of those hills with the zradius or you might skip mobs. for inside dungeons you would want to haev a much smaller pull radius so you don't try and run around and find stairs to go and grab the mob that is above you
 
is anyone else having an issue with stuck spell book? every once in a while he will sit to mem a spell and leave his book open until i shut t manually.
 
how do i prevent the sk from running out far from camp to intercept a mob being pulled?
 
Mode 5 uses Swarm Pet during the pull.. causes issues. Consider adding a command to disable using Swarm Pet altogether or perhaps disable during Mode 5?

Thanks!!

you mean chattering bones? it only gets used on a burn and its a 10 minute recast.

Unfortunately, dbg doesn't allow swarm pet commands other than /pet swarm (which sends them to attack) and /pet qswarm which queues them to attack a target after their current one has died, so there's no way to hold them off, or to make them go away.

I'll look into it, can't imagine you'r fighting enough nameds that the 110-second swarm pet is lasting long enough to steadily give you issues.

I will pay a little more attention for a while here but I could swear he was using it on normal mobs on pull. Perhaps just using on a named in the room I am in, then running out of the room to pull a regular mob and directing them to attack that mob, which ended up of course SK getting summoned and other funky stuff to start happening.

Thank you !!
 
On next build MQ2Eskay will become a paid resource. Hope everyone has been enjoying the plugin and I look forward to continuing to improve it as needed.
 
Well enjoy my money, if you do up bard and sham I can roll a whole group on your plugins
 
Is it possible to have the plugin cycle through adds to taunt/cast to keep as high as possible on the aggro list? I can’t get my bards wind instrument skill to go up to save my life so adds are wrecking my back line. This may stop being such an issue at higher levels but in city of mists, I’m getting wrecked unless I micromanage targeting between taunt cooldowns

nah, we intentionally don't have the plugins cycling targets and damaging all of them, this would cause havoc if you're trying to mez.

you can, however, just manually swap targets at any time if you're trying to micromanatge that
 
Bought the plugin earlier today and set it to "watch". Its not showing up in the Launcher plugins area after a refresh. MQ2Monk, MQ2Rogue and MQ2War are showing just not this one. Tried to manual download it and it says i'm not level 2 even though my account is. What am I doing wrong? Was looking forward to getting this going on the new server launching in a couple hours.

I don't believe it will show in the launcher until next build of live VV - it should currently be in your VV list /plugin mq2eskay load
 
trying to purchase this and mq2 beast and getting paypal errors, anyone else having same problem?

just keeps saying something went wrong there
 
(Error initializing paypal communication). tried it on 3 computers and same thing. I can log into my paypal no problem but clicking the link is getting that error.
 
Anyone else getting EQ client stuttering while using PullerTank with MQ2Eskay, seems to have started very recently, I have made no changes to my setup that I can recall. It only happens when there is nothing to pull and its scanning for a new pull target.

PS. Bought Eskay and Bst today, love them both! Great work guys! Can't wait for more of your stuff!

UPDATE:
This seems to only show up when I set the pullradius to 500+, you can see it a bit at 450.

I was using it this morning on vox around 6am and did not have any stuttering issues but I was single box at the time with my lonely heroic SK in HoT. I'll check later with my multibox setup
 
Just something I noticed today when my pet was stuck on guard, out of range. The addon kept trying to spam gift of urash. It didn't sort itself out until I clicked Follow on the pet and he got close to me.
