I'm not sure what I've done wrong, my Necro is the PullerTank role but it keeps rotating through targeting group members while console says Looking for Close Range Mobs ... waiting x... while I can see mobs nearby.

It also kept getting stuck trying to navigate through doors with ReturnToCamp=1 so I set it to ReturnToCamp=0 and added the buff line /nav wp camp which doesn't seem to get stuck.

is MaxZRange=125 this the correct MaxZRange you want to use? 125 isn't *crazy* small, but I would usually expect to see larger



you also have: Buffs4=command:/nav wp camp|Me which is probably what you're talking about moving around weird.

Thank you! I'll try larger MaxZRange. I had to do the /nav wp to keep puller from getting stuck trying to go through doorway back to camp indoors. It's almost like the normal ReturnToCamp method doesn't honor the mq2nav mesh.

Do you have doors on in Nav? You can turn on/off with /nav ini OpenDoors 1/0, or open the nav ui and click them on/off in there.

are you using plugin?

Is the pulling paused because of

GroupWatchOn=1|70

As I believe with the way you have it set, once anybody gets to 70% mana, pulling would stop until 90% mana.
 
I think you are thinking of MaxRadius, which is the size of area you want to try and pull, whereas Sic said, PullRadiustoUse is how far away from the mob you want to be when using an item/aa/ability that has a range to pull from.
This makes more sense to me. I use the area my spell would cover on my puller. Since the INI of the OP uses PullWith=Pet to pull I thought it was somewhat strange he has it set to PullRadiusToUse=75

Well, it needs a value. I don't imagine that value is getting used for pet pulling since it isn't an item or a spell.
 
Turn off ChainPull. You should only use Chain pulling with a pure puller role character. If the Character is targeting other characters, that most likely has to do with the buffs or heals section. As far as not pulling mobs I don't see anything that is jumping out at me. If you create a debug log and send it to me in a PM/DM I will take a look and see what is going on.
 
Question - Puller keeps getting stuck targeting group members, any pointers?
