Problem - PullerTank not pulling correctly

I have used the same ini file for a few years now and never had a problem with the pulling. Since last patch my Puller does not pull with his spell anymore. He just targets a mob and runs up to it and stands there until it aggro's. Does not turn on attack or anything, just stands there and runs back once he has aggro. This is my pull section:

[Pull]
Pullwith=Force of Disruption
MaxRadius=250
MaxZRange=25
Pullwait=0
PulleRoleToggle=0
ChainPull=0
ChainPullHP=90
ChainPullPause=30|2

Any Help that can be offered here would be great! Seems there is some issue here, because he used to just target and cast with no issues. Thanks in Advance!

Edit: Also noticed when multiple mobs in camp and mezzed, it takes painfully long to engage the next mob. He stands there for a good 20-30 seconds with the mezzed mob targeted before engaging.
 
Is it a spell or an AA your pulling with? If AA, check it to make sure it didn't change in last patch.
If same ini, try creating a fresh one (and maybe a fresh MQ2 folder as well).
Make sure you have the newest updater and the newest compile.
I, myself have had no issues with pullertanks, but the puller mode seems to have issues, but haven't run that that much myself.
 
I am running PullerTank mode. Also I have updated my AA hotkey to make sure it wasnt a change with the AA in the patch. I have the latest compile and I have created a new ini file and all still the same.
 
I don't know that AA, but did a quick lookup , and see that it has many ranks.
Force of Disruption I
Force of Disruption II
Force of Disruption III
etc...
Have you tried adding the rank numerator of yous to the pullwith line?
 
I havent, it has always had different ranks and ive never had to have a rank numerator to it. When hotkeyed it just says "Force of Disruption". I have tried everything I can think of that would cause the issue at this point. I think its a wash and I just have to deal with the incredibly slow and painful pulling.
 
Before you give up, start KA and type /kisscheck
then stop mac and scroll up to see if it shows any errors.
Also look at you casting chat window when you cast it (casting timer is good to if it has one) and see if it show a rank # when cast (rank should be displayed as roman numerals ).

It looks like it goes up to rank 15 (XV) so find it in your AA list and add the rank value to pullwith line.
couldn't hurt to try.
 
Adding in XV as the rank when casting is new. It never used to be that way, but in the cast message now it is there. I updated it on my ini file and will test it out a little bit later. That may have been the fix! Thanks so much for your help! ill update when I know!
 
Ok, so I made the changes to my ini file listed above. I set up my group and started kiss and my puller now just stands and cycles through targets. He does not try to cast at all. In fact any AA ability I have that was consolidated in the last patch is not working with kiss.

I tried making a new ini file, making a new mq2 folder, and everything listed above, and to no avail, it did not solve the issue :(

Edit: I changed my pullwith spell to an actual spell instead of an AA and its working fine. I am thinking its an issue with MQ2 and the consolidated aa's. Ill be patient and wait for a fix, this will work for now :)

I'm seeing the exact same issue.

I was using "PullWith=Boastful Bellow". I changed it to Boastful Bellow XXVII and the bard just stood still cycling through targets. I changed from pulling with an AA direct damage to a song on the spell bar and it works like normal.

It looks like it goes up in rank when you purchase a rank so find it in your AA list and add the rank value to pullwith line.

Does the spell work if you manually try pulling with it? With the update, some nice pulling abilities were nerfed.
 
Yes Force of Disruption works fine when I manually activate it. I have tried it on my INI file both ways as "Force of Disruption" and "Force of Disruption XV".

When it is under "Force of Disruption", my toon just runs out to the mob on target and stands next to it until it proximity aggro's.

When it is "Force of Disruption XV", my toon just cycles through targets, never casts and never moves, just cycles.

Regular Spells work fine, just not my AA abilities.
 
This an MQ2 issue. ${Spell[Boastful Bellow].Range} is not working. I have alerted teh MQ2 devs. we have to wait for a fix.

it looks like its more than just Boastful bellow, as none of my paladin AA abilities that act as spells are working either
