Overview Instructions F.A.Q. Updates (94) Reviews (81) History Discussion Terms and conditions
Hello to all.

I have been having an issue with my Warrior where if I target a hostile and turn on my auto-attack I will run to wherever the targeted mob is even if it's half way across the zone. I don't believe it's supposed to work this way so, I thought I would ask here if anyone else has had this issue as well. I don't think it's plugin specific as I have run KissAssist, MQ2Mule and now CWTN's MQ2Warrior. I have MQ2Melee turned OFF and MQ2Warrior disables that anyway. It seems to be something in MQ2Nav or Easy Find but, I haven;t been able to find a setting that looks relevant. It's getting to be rather annoying as I often use MQ2Grind and, instead of using /ranged and waiting for the critter to come within aggro radius, the Warrior is shooting an arrow as it runs toward the beast (and all of his nearby friends) which causes great difficulty as you might imagine. I am not using MQ2Next yet. Any ideas or suggestions would be most welcome.

Thanks to you all.

not entirely sure what you're using, are you using mq2war, or are you using kissassist and muleassist? are you running a macro in addition to the plugin? if you are running multiple automations at the same time - dont.

I'm going to assume this is an mq2war question and relocate it to the mq2war discussion thread.

are you saying you have a configuration issue with your mq2grind? grind doesn't use the cwtn pulling

for the cwtn plugins if you are in an assist or regular tanking mode (not manual mode and not sictank mode) if you turn on attack on something, you're going to move to it and attack it.

if you go to pull something and eq is slow/lags and the mob doesn't react to your arrows, or you get a message that you can't see your target before your xtarget populates, we will turn on attack and move to melee pull it.

and yes, 1000% you should absolutely upgrade to next.

Thanks for the reply, Sic.

I apologize for miscategorizing the original message.

I am now running MQ2War exclusively and run MQ2Grind in Mode 7 (sic tank) with my other CWTN boxes in chase as recommended.

I had the same issue even before I started using MQ2War so, I didn't think that was the problem.

I have included my grind ini here. I am running War, Monk, Bard, Cleric, Mage and Shaman all using CWTN plugins. (Except for the Bard, of course.)

Is there any chance I haven't shut off some feature in the automation stuff I was using before CWTN? When I upgraded, I simply did a /plugin mq2mule unload for each box I have CWTN for. I thought that was enough.

I'll get off my ass and upgrade to Next Perhaps that will clear any weird settings I may have in there.

Thanks again for taking the time.

ok so a grind question, i'll move it to the mq2grind thread :)

there are siginificant upgrades with next specifically for grind that i think you might want to take advantage of.

i suspect your issue here is:

INI: 
Start=/multiline ; /war pause on; /war mode 7
PullDistance=30
LTDistPullCmd=/squelch /multiline ; /nav target log=off; /timed 5 /attack on
GTDistPullCmd=/docommand ${If[${Target.Distance} > 50,/ranged,/multiline ; /nav target log=off; /timed 5 /attack on]}

Fair enough. I'll give the pull section another look and try Next asap.

Many thanks.
 
LOVE MQ GRIND.......

Found a cool "feature".

but first some background. my ranger can request the task Contract for war and my war can't.

start grind on the war.
have the ranger grab the quest.
the tank runs the rest of it like normal, no need to use wavier. the tank is just looking for the quest to zone us in.

Hello Hytiek, let me start by saying awesome program. I had a small issue while grinding in GMM. there is a log, that all toons get trapped under, and I am not sure how to fix this, any advice would be greatly appreciated... thanks in advance.
Click to expand...

Best way would be to share the location with me. Either reply here or send to me directly.

And thank you for the compliment :)

Hytiek, finally got a chance to run GMM again, seems to be pinning toons at location -23.78, 54.32, 0.18 under a steel structure .... happens about every other run... thanks

Known location of problem. By chance are you running Selos on your toons?

Unfortunately combat movements or location running overshoot can end up there. I'll have a look at the path and see if I can make some tweaks to it.

Nope, Goblins and Fools is still in FM and still in Grind.
 
Really like running G&F in FM.
My Enc really likes all the gobbies to charm (she's a looker). I've noticed that if she has one charmed at the last location, and everything is in pause mode (waiting for boot out of zone)... charm inevitably breaks, and Enc ends up splat (sometimes others before I notice in time).

I figure it is best to have all macros/plugins on pause at end. So is it recommended to not charm while grinding or are there some tips/hints/methods that could help me?
(Running RGM on SK/Dru/Wiz and CWTN on Clr/Enc, team @ 110 w/ AG AAs)
 
So after a few rounds in GMM, the sticking point seems to be at loc -6.08, -70.12, -0.09, it appears to be a direct path to 2 pull... toons get stuck under that structure and I cant get them out. like they are ducking, and tryin to run thru... tried pausing even ending grind, doesnt work... so /q out start again... Also on another note, I went to goblins and fools yesterday, /grind start at quest giver does nothing, when i do a /grind list , the FM grind is not listed... not bitchin, just sayiin)) awesome mac and very well done.. thanks again.
 
Hytiek, if I am not seeing Goblins and Fools in my /Grind list. what would be the cause/fix)?? Tried to run it yesterday, zero happened.. relogged and tried, again, nota... just curious... know your busy sorry to bother with small stuff.

If a window pops up when you type: /grind ui

Then you are confirmed to be on MQNext =) Otherwise, you are on VV Live. I've decided to deprecate VV Live MQ2Grind, and only provide updates / bug fixes / features on MQNext for MQ2Grind. I highly recommend migrating so you benefit. Specifically in regards to GMM - I'm about to release an updated version where I've re-mapped the route. It's a lot better and avoids that wall hacking wereorc too!
 
Well ive had it for a month just forgot to select the next option in my habitual excitement to play lol. But its light years forward. Bravo zulu on great work
 
Paly/Sks that use Protest for Power to pull, dont forget to go in and change it to the upgraded version at 117 Parlay for Power
 
LessonGrind:
action: /alt activate 481
condition: >-
!${Grind.Paused} && (${Grind.CurrLoc} < 5) && ${Grind.Instance} &&
!${Me.Buff[Bottle of Shared Adventure I].ID} && !${Me.Buff[Bottle
of Shared Adventure II].ID} && !${Me.Buff[Bottle of Shared Adventure
III].ID} && !${Me.Buff[Lesson of the Devoted].ID} && !${Me.Invis}
&& !${Me.Sitting} && ${Me.AltAbilityReady[Lesson of the Devoted]}

React for you mq2grind'ers.

Howdy folks,
Looking for a confirmation that Stratos (Contract of War) needs to be unlocked through the progression quests?
Not that I mind going through the progression, just looking to get back to grinding a little sooner.
Thanks
