snare help (1 Viewer)

I need alittle help with a snare routine I got the easy part for it to snare and to do it at 30% but what happens is it keep casting everytime my snare pops back up what can I do?

:snare
         /if (${Target.PctHPs} <30) {
            /call cast "${SnareSpell}" ${SnareSpellGem}

Make a declare
/declare MobSnared outer 0
then do a check if MobSnared == 0 then enter sub. In the sub for snare after you cast the spell do

/varset MobSnared 1

then just make sure to varset MobSnared back to 0 when the mob dies.

This is about the simplest way to check it.
Check the events, I don't think the trigger text is correct.

Also, this will act as if the snare has worn of the target, if a mob nearby dies as well, since it doesn't check it on the ID/name.

You might wanna make a "wore off" event as well that sets the Snared variable to FALSE.

#Event Snared   "#1# has been ensnared."
#Event Snared   "#1#'s feet is dragged down by vines."
#Event TargetDied  "#1# has died."
Sub Main
    /declare Snared     bool    outer   FALSE
    :loop
        /doevents
        /if (${Target.PctHPs} < 30 && !${Snared}) /call cast "${SnareSpell}" ${SnareSpellGem}
    /goto :loop
/return

Sub Event_Snared
    /varset Snared TRUE
/return

Sub Event_TargetDied
    /varset Snared FALSE
/return

Small modification to remove checking for death of mob. It will keep a timer for the duration of the snare (Define duration in snaretime variable. (1m=1 minute, 90s=90 seconds, 10=1 second.)

Basically what this does is it creates a timer for each targetid it snares. When it initially checks for snare this variable is NULL as its not defined. Once the timer runs out (if its still alive and your still targeting the mob) it will recast snare as an elapsed timer is equal to 0 (which makes the statement check out).

The reason for this different variables it creases is it will keep track of the timer for multiple mobs if you have them in camp.

#Event Snared   "#*# has been ensnared."
#Event Snared   "#*# is dragged down by dark vines."
#Event Snared   "#*# is surrounded by darkness."
#Event Snared   "#*#'s legs buckle."

Sub Main
    /declare snaretime string 1m
    :loop
        /doevents
        /if (${Target.PctHPs} < 30 && !${Snared${Target.ID}}) /call cast "${SnareSpell}" ${SnareSpellGem}
    /goto :loop
/return

Sub Event_Snared
    /if (!${Defined[Snared${Target.ID}]}) /declare Snared${Target.ID} timer outer
    /varset Snared${Target.ID} ${snaretime}
/return

OK here is the full macro. I have tried playing with all the option I have gotten above and it still seems to want to cast over and over again. Maybe looking at the whole thing will help.

#include spell_routines-2.4.inc

#Event TargetDied  "#1# has died."

Its really just a bash macro I added some clickies too and wanted to add snare to cause sometime i zone out and forget.

Hmm I copy pasted your edits to a new macro and it still keeps firing off snare on the mob everytime the spell refreshes. And I do thank you all very much for trying to help me out. Now if I can just get it working lol

 

[z166204]

sorry had a typo on the event to call the snare sub. try copy/pasting the above message from me and lemme know what happens.
