Question - Puller stands and fights mob

[luclinjunkie]

Hey guys, my puller will frequently engage the mob she is pulling. Any idea as to why she'd turn and fight? Like spins around and starts melee engaging.

 

[ctaylor22]

Is she getting stunned while running back to camp?

 

[luclinjunkie]

No, if I'm facing enemy and near it she will run at and engage. If I'm facing away most of the time she doesn't engage. Don't know what setting it is as I don't have her on kissassist macro.

 

[ctaylor22]

Are you using MQ2Melee?

 

[luclinjunkie]

If it is a default load than yes. How would I check?

If it's active, this command will report your basic toggle settings:
/melee

It does that "lock on target" thing and to stop you have to drop target. The plugin automates a lot of combat stuff so it's fairly useful. When manually playing, I try to pull with a ranged item/spell, if it locks on a target I mash ESC while backing up until it releases then book it back to camp.

If you want you can make a hotkey to temp disable it:
/melee off

/plugin list

Then look at the list in the MQ2 window.

Ty eqtrader, appears to have worked. Great suggesttion. Thank you CTaylor for list.

As a side note, I also notice this happens to me when I set myself as pullertank, and not just puller. The puller will start solo-meleeing the mob away from camp, which usually results in death or me fighting the stick on the mob manually.

Make sure your camp radius isn’t set too high, otherwise they’ll think they’re in camp still and starts whacking.

 

[ctaylor22]

Check MeleeDistance as well. When the tank is standing at camp waiting on incoming mobs, that's the distance he checks before charging the mob.
