Problem - SK won't attack while waiting for buff cooldown

[freddyjkm]

Version of KissAssist.mac?

10.2.6

When did your problem start?

The last week

Character Role?

1. Tank

What class is having this issue?

1. Shadow Knight

How often does this issue occur?

Always

Can you reproduce the issue?

Yes, by letting a buff fade

I have a problem which occours when my SK is rebuffing.
He will mem whatever buff is missing, and that might have a cooldown for 30 seconds.
If it means anything, it usually is Tylix's Skin (30 sec) cooling down when this occurs.

If my bard is pulling whatever and mob(s) get back in camp, the SK will just stand there waiting for the cooldown, buff himself, re-mem the original gemspell then attack.
As SK is MA, my toons die sometimes when this happens or will just take a beating while merc is healing, have also experienced some wipes if I'm afk for few.

Defiant Stance which has a cooldown for nearly 3 minutes and is in the original gemset does not have this effect.

If I use him as PullerTank, obivously he will just wait before he pulls. But not as efficient as a bard puller.

I don't mind holding the pulls if that is what it takes, but this is getting annoying and I can't figure out why this is happening.

I originally had GroupWatchOn=0, tried using 1 and 2.

Any tips on what I am doing wrong or suggestions would be greatly appreciated

So I figured I might aswell try and temporary swap

Gem9=Concordant Disruption

As:

Gem9=Tylix's Skin


Concordand Disruption only lasts 2 mins, however has no cooldown.
Vs Tylix which lasts 8 mins

I will test and see if this makes it better, however my SK will now re-mem a spell every 2 mins.

And yes saving AA for gemspell13 will sort this out, however I'd still like to know if this is fixable.

I have noticed some weirdness in the new zones...mainly tanks dying (lol) and then getting battle rezzed and they are casting spells, and the target is there in their target window but in that target window there are no dots, no nothing...its just blank, ... im going to look at that more tomorrow and through the weekend. I would have to target a group member then re target the mob to see his effects, and then he would re engage meleeing. Bottom line is for some reason after the battle rez I am seeing some toons not immediately re engaging the mob. Also, my puller will pull a mob, he is the main assist, and has himself targeted as main assist, will pull a mob but then not engage melee when the tanks pick it up and pull it past him. He will cast but gets the, target is too far away and stands there going thru his spells and aa

.... Sorry, didnt mean to hijack this thread.

We need to grab ahold of the 11 ini and move forward with it.

I have had my beastlord do this with ferocity as well. A little bit different in that I keep it memmed at all times but when it comes time to rebuff it, he won't follow or attack until the cd is done.

Yeah Buffs will hold DPS if you're in the middle of that section.

I dropped a DPS spell slot, Dire Coarctation, to have 2 permanent slots for Tylix Skin and Defiant Stance. Concordant Disruption goes in my miscgemremem (same as you) since it is insta-mem, insta-cast.

I did this, as well, which fixed most of my issues.

I was coming here to post the same thing I have been noticing, damn SK just stops and waits for a buff gem to refresh. I understand why this is happening but not exactly sure how to fix without adding a loop to check for mobs in camp while waiting for spell gems to refresh.

/edit
Wanted to add on to this, I have also noticed casters meming a spell and just standing there waiting for it to refresh before they cast it even if it takes 5 minutes for that to happen.
