I have my SK 2.0 epic, I do not use it at lvl 90 and prefer the sword and board of course for my group. Is there a specific way to get my SK to use the 2.0 clicky effect?

the 1.5/2.0 are automatically used

Q. Epic 1.5/2.0?
A. The 1.5/2.0 are automagically used as part of the combat checks. It checks against your health for "uh oh" usage, and in the tier'd burns for burn usage. No need to add it to anything - unless you want it to be used as an "any time its up" then you would want to add it to combat/burn - just keep in mind you will lose its functionality as part of the tier'd defensive routine and "uh oh" bit if you use it on cooldown.
 
I have been using this for about a week now and its really nice. I do have one question (assuming I am doing something wrong). When my shaman, berzerker, etc die, they accept the rez and rebuff and keep going, but my shadowknight never auto accepts rez like the other ones. I tried to find a setting. I actually wouldn't mind a toggle where I could turn on or off accepting rez, as there are some raids where it wouldn't be good to accept right that second, but in general I want him back up and running without having to switch and click "yes" for the rez.

Am I missing it somewhere?

the cwtn pluigns don't handle accepting rez.

mq2rez is the plugin that accepts rezzing.

you can use that to toggle if/when you want to accept rezzes.
 
Interesting, I didn't do anything for the others to auto accept, I will look into this plugin, thanks again Sic!
 
Great plugin CWTN. I have a question for you. Why does my SK always look about 25 degree upward when attacking? I know you are thinking WTF are you playing in first person mode for these days but ignore that. What is the purpose of looking up while fighting?

its part of the tank stick - its using the "uw" underwater looking - its so you're facing the mob and if you run to it you're facing it without sinking or going up if you're lev/water etc
 
Sid and CWTN,

Minor bit of feed back. Spell selection in regards to the Healthproctap. In kunark was Shroud of Undeath which is the current selection in Luclin, once Velious come out would be nice to change to Shroud of Death. The only difference is Shroud of Undeath adds a Icebone Skeletal Form and as we all know at this point in the game buff slots are at a premium.

You can/should block the ice skeleton form if u don't want it. It won't try and recast for the illusion if it is blocked
 
Here is something new for me since last patch. its like im spamming the tab key, not on every pull maybe every 3rd to 4th mob and not always for the whole fight but sometime though the whole fight it will very rapidly target myself then the mob and its floods my output window with...

U have either a react or a macro running etc
 
I'm probably not posting this in the right place, but I'll go ahead and ask anyway.

I use mouse without borders and play on two computers. I play in fullscreen with several toons on both computers (using alt esc to tab between toons if need be).

My problem is with Eskay unpausing when I switch between computers. It doesn't seem to happen on my other toons that use CWTN plugins, but my SK is usually the screen that is on top on the main computer. Is there a key or something that I may be hitting that is causing the unpause?

Thanks for any input!

Yes if u click on the ui window where the pause iron is, it unpauses it
 
Not sure if yall accept bug reports for the EQEMU version(ROF2 Client, Server DB based on PEQ), but upon logging in a level 60 SK.
  • It will cast Deathly Temptation(Spell ID 2892) and spam it over and over if it has KEI.
  • Removing KEI lets Deathy land.
  • The SK will spam Call of Darkness(Spell ID 4063) over and over.
A work around ATM is to use BYOS to stop it from casting. Also clicking the CWTN logo does not pause the plugin like on Live.

Thanks!

Unfortunately stack checking for EMU was crashing last time I checked out EMU code. The only way for me to fix crashing was to skip the stack checking all together for EMU. You can add any spells that are being spammed to blocked buffs to get them to stop spamming. Alternately you can block KEI to allow deathly temptation to land. The choice is yours.
 
I know that mq2melee is unloaded with this plugin, but is there a way to configure custom holy- and downshits while running mq2eskay?
 
I'm sure this has been asked somewhere so forgive me if I missed it. How do I remove a downtime clicky I no longer have on my SK? Or any toon for that matter.
TY

If you got rid of an item and can't remove clicky it, you will have to edit out of your mq2eskay_toon.ini
 
I didn't know where to put this, so forgive me. Is anyone else having trouble with their SK disc timers? Deflection should have a 20 minute cooldown, but when I try to use mine, it says there is a 1 hour and 20 minute cool down. Same for my other discs, the button is not on cooldown, but I can't use it and I get a message with a really long cooldown time on it.

Servers had an eq bug with this a few weeks ago, wonder if again?
 
I have been away for a few weeks, didn't want to post on official forums.
It *was* supposedly fixed so surprised to hear that it isn't.

You're sure it's not just another ability on the same timer with a longer cooldown?

Also double check your password date/time is up to date and correct.

You don't happen to be on AB server do you?

Not a disc timer conflict since Deflection is the only disc on timer 4. It happens on Cadcane's also, and the others on that timer are not conflicting. I am on Vox.

Not sure what you mean about password date/time up to date and correct? PW for EQ or RG or...?

Lol sorry, computer time is up to date, not password. Like desktop computer time

Ah got it, yes it is correct. I am trying to see if it is MQ2 related, going to reboot and not start MQ2 and see what happens.

Thanks for your help as always!

Ok, I am embarrassed to say it was my computer time. For some reason it didn't change for DST. I know above I said my date/time was correct, but it wasn't lol.

Thanks Sic!!!
 
Hey guys,

So, I set up a "StayInvis" react to keep my SK invisible.
Basically, if not in combat, doesn't have aggro, isn't moving, isn't casting, doesn't have invis or ivu already, then cast invis.
I have it mapped to a "Stay Invis" hotkey, and another hotkey to turn off the react and make me visible (if I need to hail an npc or something).
It's basically just like Rogue auto-hide.

It works great, except that it interferes with the eskay plugin when it tries to memorize spells and cast buffs.
If the eskay plugin decides it needs to rebuff, it starts to sit, memorize spells, stand, cast, sit back down, memorized another spell, repeat.
The problem is that between casting a buff, and then sitting back down to memorize a spell, the react tries to trigger invis.
Trying to cast invis keeps interrupting the sitting and opening of the spellbook. Or, when the sk stands up again, it tries to cast invis before casting the buff.
Sometimes it gets stuck in a loop of trying to sit and stand as the two macros battle each other.

It's not that big of a deal. I can just turn StayInvis off when I need to rebuff.
But, I don't always notice, and the beauty of the eskay plugin is that it does rebuffing automatically.

So, can anyone think of a workaround that will make these play nicely together?

Thanks!

none of the cwtn plugins break invis to do things unless you are in a camp mode. (this includes buffing and memorizing spells to buff)

so, if you want to have some other automation do stuff outside of this, you will need to go invis and either pause the plugin or go into a noncamp mode - like mode 0


from the FAQ
Q. How can i get it to break invis to do stuff like buff or memorize spells?
A. MQ2Eskay will break invis to do stuff if a camp is set - so mode 1/4/5/6/7/8 would break invis to do stuff like buff, where mode 0 would not.
 
I have a level 106 SK with the level 103 Harmonious Disruption spell in her spellbook. Despite 'UseDisruption' being enabled in the options, that spell is never memmed by MQ2Eskay (compile version Apr 2 2021). I've made sure to try SicTank & Hunter Tank to see if this was maybe not enabled when in assist mode, but no joy under those modes either. Is this a known issue/expected behaviour?

Disclaimer: Yes, I did use the search function to try to find other mentions of this, so it's a search-usage-failure, not a lack-of-effort if there is already an answer out there for this :)

we put disruption in your gem 13 slot (that you get with mnemonic retention 5 at lvl 106 and RoS xpac) its a 2m (4:30m) buff so its not something we're going to memorize to cast every couple of minutes.
