New Vxed substitute spot (1 Viewer)

YXTTA. This could be the next best thing to Vexed and HoH if we put our heads together.

Need to be KodTaz flagged (just finish the Tipt mission once with a group), but mobs do not summon or cast where I have been kiting and they give exp as good as KodTaz solo.

Make sure primal insect is not up before using this. I think its spawn time is 3 days, but on my server people farm them by the clock and it usually is free to kite. Another good thing is no one is ever here. Mobs have 38k hp and hit for over 1k, so dont get hit. Takes me about 5 minutes to kill one with a 3.0 drum and most DoT AA done.

I use a chant/snare macro adapted from one of the ones I found here and this hot key to get me started in the right place.

/face heading 110
/pause 5
/warp loc -2012 -2355 -380
/circle on 100

I chant Selo's and Invulnerability right before I use the hot key.


This could all be put together by someone who knows more than me about macros. Hopefully like the vsed macro. Also, it would be great if we could get the macro to do a large circle first (while Kazumis is up) to agro everything in the room, and then a smaller circle to kite. That way nothing would try to run away, which is the main problem right now. If something goes out of range things get bad fast.

I have modified the macro to use the following song line up, and simplified things I didn't need, but it can clearly be made better by more expert hands.

1 regen
2, 3, 4, 5 DoT
6 Occlusion of Sound
7 Snare
8 Selo
9 Invulerability

If we can figure out a way to avoid runners by having a fail safe snare method, or by having enough mobs behind us at all times, this could be amazing exp. Maybe toying around with my circle settings will do the trick, but after trying a few settings, this one seemed to work the best.

#event NeedTarget "You must first select a target for this spell!" 
#event NeedTarget "Your target is out of range, get closer!"
#event exp "You gain experience!!"
#event replay "You target resisted the Largo's Absonant Binding spell#*#"
#event logoff "LOADING, PLEASE WAIT..."

Too bad this zone isn't instanced...

One more thing. What I do once the circle is started and the first three bettles are behind me is bellow the ones further away so I have a few more in the circle (about 6-7). Then I do the /mac command. This way I reduce the chance of a runner and I can go semi - AFK.

 

[grassdunes]

Also forgot to mention I have Heal over time potion in bandolier 1.

Ok this is how this will work if someone can figure out of to write the code.

1. Warp to loc provided in first post and circle on 100
2. Run kite macro WITHOUT snare
3. Make sure you always have two mobs following you, if no, bellow something and add to train.

If anyone can figure out how to permanently have 2 mobs chasing you, this will be as good as vxed.

Yxxta is ubr as long as the named to spawn and eat you.... If you can kite out of range it's np. I've used this zone many atime, but it's not instanced and you have to deal with people clearing the avatars. This = bad if you don't have a decent macro on your side :P

I have some homework projects that I need to get finished this week + another macro for a friend that I need to finish by the end of the weekend. After that I may look into writing a macro for you guys :P

 

[grassdunes]

After some testing this may be just a matter of what circle you use.

I am now trying

/face heading 150
/pause 5
/warp loc -1972 -2299 -389
/circle on 110

This draws agro from more mobs, and I hope it will manage to always have a few behind you.

Yeah if the name pops you are gone, but that only happens once every three days, so theoretically you could grind and get killed once in three days, which is nothing with GL these days.
