At work at the moment so unfortunately my Macro files are not available to post but hopefully some generic information will explain the situation.

3 main issues -

1) When puller goes to pull, and pulls, say 2 mobs, one being a caster, one being a melee, and the target is on the caster.
a) Caster mob begins casting spells as he's chasing the puller back to camp, thus slowing his return.
b) melee mob runs back to camp straight away.
c) pullertank is still targeted on the caster mob, waiting for him to return
d) toons in group back at camp, begin casting DPS on the melee mob such as dots.
e) this causes my enchanter to attempt to mez, but the mez is broken by dots/pets etc.

2) When puller goes to pull, he gets locked onto a mob that is currently walking, as the mob continues to walk, the puller then encounters various other mobs in aggro range, and aggros 3-4-5 mobs at a time.
a) All mobs come back and is too much for my group to handle and we wipe
b) is there any way for the puller to be smarter about how he pulls so he doesn't pull a train back?

3) Shaman as a healer, also set to cannibalize for mana.
a) Healer is set to heal superior healing at 45 health. Though if the shaman is cannibalizing, it will often just sit there and cannibalize and not heal thus causing deaths.


Any help from the community would be appreciated.
 
1.Possibly lower your assistat on your characters so they dont dps as soon as the mob hits the camp. I'm not the best at kiss but this works on mine to let the bard and or enchanter lock the mobs before the group assists.
[Melee]
AssistAt=98
MeleeOn=0
FaceMobOn=1
MeleeDistance=75
StickHow=snaproll
AutoFireOn=0

2.As far as getting too many mobs you may just have to pick a better spot that doesn't have many roamers or manually break up the spawn timers so you get singles.

3. Don't have a clue.
 
3) I would shift canni to using downshits if you can. The problem is kissassist is going to stay in buff mode (assuming you put canni in buffs section) until the buffs are finished, thus never hitting heals. The same happens in DPS. You could write something like

/downshit0=/if (${Me.ManaPct} < 70) && ${Me.HealthPct} > 50) /casting "cannibalize" gem7 -invis

That should only cast when kissassist is not busy. I'm sure its missing something but the basic idea should work.
 
most likely your HEALER is pulling the agro cause your tank is getting hit and healer is pulling agro with heals... un stop getting hit? As in don't melee to pull, use a range, if this is a TLP server then my apologies, you get what you sign up for.... If it is live then get a ranged weapon or use a spell to pull so your tank does not get a beat down and cause the healer to pull agro off you....

the big question is WHO is the mob attacking in your group? THAT is the culprit that you will need to adjust....
