you're going to want to pause the plugin if you want to do something the plugin isn't trying to do.

Pause the plugin and do it manually is the only way I know of with the plugins.
Or see if you can modify one of the Lua's in the She thread that were created for bards or enchanters. I use the enc Lua and it auto puases, targets, mezzes, and resumes the plug in.

mogley,
thanks for checking out mq2shaman. all of the cwtn plugins have robust discussion threads dedicated to them, please make sure to post in there.
you should also make sure to check out the sticky
Please see >>> Getting Started with CWTN plugins! (Movement, UI Window, Clickies, Pulling, ETC) Check Here First! <<<
re: your question - the plugin is picking the best option - byos/byos-custom isn't even going to use a less-better version.
so no
Please make sure to check the FAQ in case you're confused about double duration bps

Did a search of posts in relation to Entry Point issues and found this one today from @paman
I used EverQuest and MQ yesterday, before any patches and everything was working well. This morning (UK time) I made sure to update both EverQuest and RG via respective Launchers.
I've encountered
I've unloaded MQ a couple of times and checked that I can get a plain old character in-game via the EQ launcher - that worked ok.
Reloaded RG Launcher and ensured I reinstalled VV, plugins, macros, Lua etc, and tried again, only to receive the same issue - Entry Point Not Found.
Hope this helps.

this means that either you didn't download a new plugin dll from launcher, or your subscription expired.
- The RG Launcher is unable to *delete* old files.
-- This means you will get an error box if you don't have a current plugin that matches the mq build
-- your options are:
--- a: purchase a license
--- b: delete the old .dll in your plugin folder, and/or
--- c: change your macroquest.ini to MQ2PluginName=0 under [Plugins]
your licenses

there are circumstances where shrink might not take hold - like if a pet is *exactly* standing on a campfire, or in a wall
we only try and shrink a pet to a certain height (which means not double shrunk)

my shaman seems to not be dotting at all on regular mobs only on named (and rarely then), ive got it all checked and usedots at 95 hp (even tried 100hp) but its not casting any dots when i did stance 2 (dots) - or even in hybrid stance i thought it was gonna light it up with dots but didnt do it
and on that note how high dps can the shaman go with this i see the shamans topping the dps charts in raids... and for some reason hes using composite roar instead of ecliptic
*update*
I turned off some of the other settings like nuke and canni spell and it sometimes dotted, not every fight... does it not work if it goes from 96 to 94 and dot hp is at 95? what's causing him to sometimes dot and not dot as top priority when in dot mode he maybe does a couple dots and I had to get Tegi Pandemic from spell vendor guess there was no Rk II of that, when I got that spell it started working sometimes here and there, is there a way to make sure he dots every fight and I did burncount 1 for 1 mob around and tried to do burn always but dont see him do much burning not sure if its working or not.
**update**
I got the dot stance working great, the dothp at 5 works good, no complaints about it, been able to get him to do about 500k dps

It dots as expected.
Shammies are busy classes, if they're busy casting other stuff before mob dies. Obv they won't/can't.
And in this scenario it sounds like it is doing exactly what you're asking it to
Adjust your settings as you mentioned, however turning off nuke is dumb
you are also not using the dothp value correctly. you have it backward. turn it to like 5. the default is 30, so you went from "cast dots on regular mobs all the way to as low as 30% health (the default)" to "cast dots on regular mobs all the way to as low as 95% health"

im not sure this is wher i should be asking this so apologies in advance
launcher is up to date, eq is up to date, subscription to mq2 shaman is up to date.
shaman using primary anchor or teleporter just disappears no crash report or anything i can find as to why.
shows in group as in zone but no longer in address bar as active , can not alt tab to shaman or have it respond to come to me or other commands. open up profile and is unloaded.
reload and have to wait for toon to log out but then works fine.
im using a bcga command to either use the primary (/bcga //useitem primary), or to click yes(/bcga //yes) is when i notice the shaman goes poof. but only if full group does it at same time. its only the shaman though that drops.
any advice on what i might be doing wrong or how to check for further information?

does not sound like an mq2shaman issue - i would unload mq2shaman and do the same, i suspect you're also going to have the same issue

Hello, I hope this is the right spot to ask a question about my shaman in MQ2Shaman. Seems every post i do I do something wrong.
My question: I've been told that my box team is ready to do the mission one door closes. But they said the add must be cured. Would my shaman do that automatically? I do know he slows and heals and dots like a champ. Just curious about curing the add.
Thank you

It isn't. Please make sure to post in the discussion thread.
If you have the cure memorized and usecures is on, then it cures stuff as you would expect (items with cure counters that your cure, cures).
is it going to target a mob and cast a cure on it? no, no it isn't going to do that

It won't automatically cure the Dervish for the achievement, you'll need to pause and do that manually. There's plenty of time to do it

I don't believe this is correct, none of that makes any sense. I will look at it
being in a raid only matters if you are in raidmode, we don't care if you're in a raid or not otherwise.
your stated premise would indicate that it never works ever
Here is it doing it as expected. I click off Pact of the Wolf from my aura window, and it immediately casts pact of the Wolf.
You can see I'm in a raid

the code doesn't represent that at all, there is nothing like that in the code, and I can't replicate it based on the information you said. i replicated what you said and it immediately did what the code appears to be telling it to do
we check we don't have an aura
if you're not in raidmode we cycle through our group to see if anyone needs it (with cwtnbuffs)
works like all other stuff, except for checking we don't have an aura
Can you think of any reason that the 5 shamans would have all held off casting until the exact same second (coinciding with the exact same time as I disbanded the raid? I went through my entire log since I loaded everyone in 16 hrs ago and in the 12 hrs I had them in raid (with at least 8+ deaths for each). I have them casting a total of twice, both times coinciding with me disbanding the raid (I am also sure that it wasn't missed in the logs as the toon logging was the first one rezd after any wipe) and everyone was piled up for rez periods.

i would have mentioned it if i did, but no, unless you're paused, I can't think of one, no
if i think of one i'd obviously say so
if i saw/found an issue i'd obviously fix it
if i could replicate the issue based on the information provided (or trying different stuff in and around them) i'd also fix it and say so

anyone familar with why my mq2shaman is casting talisman of unity and talisman of foresight constantly?
lvl 85 if that matters. Its keeping him extremely low mana which isn't very helpful

Yep. As mentioned in the other response and on discord.
You have to block the specific subspell

@Sic,
When I pop out my "an armored salver" or "an armored spellweaver" my shammy keeps casting Group Shrink ad nauseum.
Request to have MQ2Shaman updated to ignore shrink on these two Mercs.
Thank you for your consideration.

you will need to turn off group shrink if you don't want it shrunk with group shrink.
unfortunately spawn information doesn't tell us the min height of a shrunk model - which is why we don't double shrink.
and eq is stupid and some models actually shrink and get larger.
you'll need to turn it off - unfortunately, we're not going to keep a list of all of the spawns and their min/max heights. We try and make an assumption that if something is over 2.04 height, it needs to be shrunk. I could just ignore all mercenaries, but would rather not do that.

If you skip the sticky you're going to deny yourself out of a lot of enjoyment.
take a look at the sticky (which will direct you to the FAQ and "how to ask for help").
Sounds like there is a conflicting spell - figure out what that is and then make a determination on that.
usually some ranger has cast flight of falcpns on me or my group when i get that spam . so check what buffs you have and work back from threre
- Seller
- #1,997
the correct course of action is to check and understand the FAQ - which suggests to check for red eq error messages, and then work from there.
We only use lupine spirit if eq/mq says it stacks AND the lupine movement speed is greater or equal to whatever you have.
- Seller
- #1,999
ignoring and skipping the FAQ just denies people the opportunity to understand why, and how to fix/remedy that.
sometimes it will end up being that another toon running a different automation/macro/Lua/lem is overwriting a buff, and then the plugin re-casts the buff because a toon is missing it and mq/eq says it stacks, but then the other toon removes it.
sometimes it is a spell conflict with stack reporting
sometimes people don't realize that buffs are just being cast on individuals (like yesterday in mq2paladin thread) and they think it is spamming when it isn't.
helping people get help and understanding for potential future issues is going to give them so much more opportunity for enjoyment than something so specific that it is "i tried that it didn't work i guess i'll uninstall eq" which literally happens.
