Toast - Stealth grouping.

[BruskieEQ]

so we were raiding yesterday and it was pretty boring. so i thought i would see if i could use Kiss in a Pick up group and see how i'd do.

i first joined with my Mage, he is not where i want him to be. when he runs LoM he sits and meds and dosent send in pet, and after he hits 100% manna then he will dps, ( i would like him to auto sit when there are not mobs around) and start nukeing at say 75% manna instead of 100%. our healer left so i jumped on my Shammy and /ooc Shammy looking for group have heals! he got invited to the group, he is doing good hes healing and slowing, only issue i have with him right now is buffing. he is only doing 1/2 the buffs, and hes buffing when the buff still has 30 mins left on it. so i took auto buffs off i did not want to stick out like a red thumb. all in all i think it went all right, at the end, i needed to go buy spells for my mage and left the group. one of the other members says " ive never seen a mage AFK so much in a group" this is comming from the same guy who said " i am very impressed with your healing abilty" i was at my comp alt tabing and checking in on them every 2-10 mins or so

mind you we were all grouping togeather for 7 hours... lol

MedOn=1
MedStart=60 (turn this higher than 20 so you look real)
MedCombat=1 (mess with this, can't remember which setting makes it so you stop medding when mobs show up, pretty sure it's 1)
GroupWatchOn=0 (turn this off so you don't wait for group member to get to 90%)

I'm just getting back into EQ after taking another 2ish years off, so relearning KISS myself.

Your shammy is probably buffing something that isn't stacking quite right, which is why he's buffing so much. You might want to read into what the common buffs are, and make sure you're stacking correctly.

As for the mage, put him on a mount, turn group watch off, and make sure you don't med in combat.

You should be using at least 3-4 mana return items like the mod rod, rod of transvergence, mana draw, etc. Not sure what you're killing that you'd run out of mana... my mage stays solid in chain pulls in T3 TDS.

It's MedCombat=0.
1 let him sit the whole fight, till he's FM again.

0 just means its off 1 would be it starts at 1%. You can actually set the MedCombat to a specific % but I tent to just keep it at 1 so he doesnt do it at all. I keep my mage on 90 MedStart so she is constantly medding and sending the pet. Eventually you will have a mount in a couple xpansions and itll all go away.

MedCombat=1 is ON has nothing to do with % ther eis only 0 or 1 on or off.
If you want to med through all combat unitl 100% mana instead of assisting then use =1
