Decided to play around with NEC mez today since TOV has an abundance of undead.

Upon setting up the Mez section:

[Mez]
MezOn=1
MezRadius=50
MezMinLevel=100
MezMaxLevel=115
MezStopHPs=80
MezSpell=Shadowbone Manacles|Cond2
MezDebuffOnResist=0
MezDebuffSpell=Your Debuff Spell

Cond2=${Target.Body.Name.Equal[Undead]} && ${Me.XTarget}>1

I get this error:



After looking at the code I attempted changing the MezOn setting to 2, and I got the same results.

I don't believe you can use conditions in the mez section

I am no Necro by any means. But I would think if you got rid of the conditions, it would work.
Example from my Bard:

[Mez]
MezOn=1
MezRadius=50
MezMinLevel=95
MezMaxLevel=113
MezStopHPs=80
MezSpell=Slumber of Jembel
MezAESpell=Wave of Somnolence|3
MezDebuffOnResist=0
MezDebuffSpell=Your Debuff Spell

 

[LrdDread]

Removing the Condition didn't effect the error.

 

[( @ )( @ )]

MezSpell=Shadowbone Manacles
MezAESpell=NULL

possibly?

 

[LrdDread]

KISS does not make an INI entry for that Variable for NEC. I'll try adding it in, but that's why there isn't already an entry for it.
If you go to that section of code, there is even a note about NECs...

        }
        | Necros can't AE mez. But you don't need to check it twice.
        /if (${Select[${MezOn},1,3]} && ${MezAECount}>0 && ${MezMobAECount}>=${MezAECount} && ${MezAETimer}==0 && ${Select[${Me.Class.ShortName},BRD,ENC]}) {
            DEBUGMEZ I'm about to AEMez

 

[( @ )( @ )]

Yeah, I am not necro friendly hehe, just trying to figure out your error

 

[LrdDread]

That's a shame, cause NEC can only mez undead, and no sense trying to mez anything else

 

[LrdDread]

adding

MezAESpell=NULL

didn't help

 

[( @ )( @ )]

bah! Time to log in a nec and see whats what

A note about the comment:

| Necros can't AE mez. But you don't need to check it twice.

NEC does have an AA AE Mez for undead: Dead Mesmerization
I don't have it maxed out yet, but it looks like it might cap at target level 113

 

[( @ )( @ )]

I am at a loss on this one, my nec is only lvl 110, and has never used a mez .
sry!

 

[LrdDread]

No need to be sorry! Thanks for looking at it! I think it might be something in the code

 

[Warl0ck45]

Actually, necros can mezz non undead as well.

Actually, necros can mezz non undead as well.

I thought I remembered seeing some spells for that early on in my toon advancement, but I was mostly running with an ENC all the time, so didn't look into it, the spell for current content is Undead only though.

 

[LamahHerder]

old school nec's used to use that DD that changes the target to an undead and then mez it

 

[LrdDread]

I do remember that! Another old school NEC thing, Back in the day, on my original server and nec, I was a master of charm exp. I should look into that again w/TOV. And that was my pre-MQ days! This could be fun...

 

[Warl0ck45]

Necros get "screaming terror" line which is a necro mez for all things. It how ever is limited in levels, and is generally useless for current content.

For example Nightmarish Shriek is limited to level 113, while most of the ToV content is higher.

Personally as a necro I would use the push-root (pestilence paralysis) to park a mob, or pet tank it, over trying to mez something live. Even in ToV with all the undead I generally only use the undead mez for splitting mobs, since it is limited to 115.

I was just pointing out that necros have both kinds of mez (which is probably why the code is set up the way it is, it is just a matter of the INI being set up properly)

This was provided to me in our Discord channel!

        | Necros can't AE mez. But you don't need to check it twice.
        /if (${Select[${Me.Class.ShortName},BRD,ENC]}) {
            /if (${Select[${MezOn},1,3]} && ${MezAECount}>0 && ${MezMobAECount}>=${MezAECount} && ${MezAETimer}==0) {
                DEBUGMEZ I'm about to AEMez
                /varset MezMobAECount ${SpawnCount[npc xtarhater loc ${Spawn[id ${MezAEClosest}].X} ${Spawn[id ${MezAEClosest}].Y} radius ${Spell[${MezAESpell}].AERange}]}
                | Check if Mezzer out of group and using XTSlot to assist MainAssist. Add 1 mob to count.
                /if (${Me.XTarget[${XTSlot}].TargetType.NotEqual[Auto Hater]} && ${Me.XTarget[${XTSlot}].Type.NotEqual[pc]}) /varcalc MezMobAECount ${MezMobAECount}+1
                /if (${MezMobAECount}>=${SpawnCount[npc loc ${Spawn[id ${MezAEClosest}].X} ${Spawn[id ${MezAEClosest}].Y} radius ${Spell[${MezAESpell}].AERange}]}) /call MezMobsAE ${MezAEClosest}
            }
        }

So far it's working awesomely!

THANK YOU!
