I am pretty new to this. Wondering why my puller just gives up sometimes and fights mobs at its spawn spot. I am the only one in the zone so it is not being triggered off by a nearby PC.

Here is my ini

This should be at 100 if you're a tank (you're set as pullertank)

Also, you're using a very old version of KissAssist. Are you using the RGUpdater? If so, make sure "overwrite macros" is checked in settings, and then update your compile.


If those don't help, I have to say I find pullertank a little finicky in KA7 - I recommend having a dedicated puller and a dedicated tank. What classes are in your group? Any mercs?

I used the updater. I am running KISS on 4 toons at the moment and I went back and looked. 3 toons were running the current and the warrior for some reason had the older install.

My puller seems to run fine for awhile now but after about 2 hours he craps out and just fights mobs at their spawn points.

I'll try throw stones today and see if that helps.
 
I have seen this happen before in older version of KA. What happens is the ReturnToCamp field gets set to off(0) and then the puller will try to pull, but never returns to camp and just melees at the mobs spawn point. I think the newer version of KA fixed this problem.

Yes ... version 7.6.4 and higher have this resolved... all he needs to have is ReturnToCamp=1 in his ini, and he does according to his ini posting.

Just download and use the latest version (download from the kissassist thread) and this should be resolved.
 
Tried this again today using stone throw, and setting melee at 100. Also updated the kiss version. I am still having the same issue. Every once in awhile my tank puller just does not reset and the group wipes. Any other ideas?

Also, I have him set as Main Assist, Puller and Maintank in the group

Did you download the newest version of kiss, or did you just change the version number in the ini file? Make sure you have the newest version of Kiss. Don't make your puller the main assist, if he/she is not tank. All ways make sure your tank is targeted when starting kiss on your puller and the other characters do the same. Start your tank with him/her targeting self. If you are using merc's then make sure your puller is marked as puller in EQ.

While kiss is running you may want to try /kisscheck and see if you have any issues with spell names.

Hope this helps

Excellent advise.....
Another observation: How are your DPS discs firing without a mob health% defined for each dps definition????????
All i see properly defined is Battle Leap at mob 95% health.

Also.. to re-ask what ctaylor22 did.. did you actually go to the webpage for KisssAssist.. download.. and overwrite your existing kissassist.mac in your macros folder with the posted 7.6.7 version..

This was specifically investigated.. troubleshooted .. and resolved.. we've tested the crap out of it.. before we fixed it.
 
He did download the new version. Look at his ini file.

I did download the newest version and patch it. I am not sure if I completely solved the problem but it was running a bit better yesterday. I don't think I had nw posse setup right
 
That's good to here.

I know the more you use KA the better you will get using it. I have been using KA for a long time now and I still learn new stuff all the time. Some things have to do with the actual setup and some things have to do with my systems configuration. I find it a good practice when KA starts doing weird things for no reason to just exit out of everything and reboot my system. Just that alone has saved me a ton of headaches. Just hang in there and you will be a KA pro in no time.
 
i am having the same problem but my puller goes out to pull and just stands there until the merc runs out of mana then toon dies
