Question - Tips to make Magician Pet attack sooner?

[DadBod]

Hi,

I have problems with having my mages consistently send pets in to intercept mobs the bard puller brings back.

I have played around with both and MeleeDistance in order to get my magicians to send in the pet as soon as possible, when the bard brings back the mob to the camp, where my two mages and a Merc stands waiting.

One mage is Tank.


CampRadius=30
MeleeDistance=90
AssistAt=100
MeleeOn=0

[DPS]
DPSOn=1
DPSSkip=20
DPSInterval=20
DPS1=Malosinete|99|Once
DPS2=NULL
DPS3=Rumbling Servant|99
DPS4=Banestrike|80|Once


My problem is that my mages don't start with sending in the pets, especially not the Tank one using AA Malosinete. He will often summon Rumbling Servant before sending in the pet.

Is there a trick to make him send in the pet as the first thing, and also be a bit quicker to react?

Thanks :-)

AssistAt=100 = fail highest you want it is 98

What version of Kiss are you using and who is tanking?

No player or merc Tank.

One of the mages has the formal role of Tank, but he is not meleeing nor in melee range (Mages have good Bazaar pet focus and 5000 AA, their air pets out-tank the bard without breaking a sweat).

Pets intercept the mob as it runs back towards camp, so they are tanking, but it is not super consistent.

I need the pets to take agro away from the toons, so that the toons don't get hit.

(actually I have 4 mages, but the two other are not paid toons, so I don't play them atm. 4 Mages and a bard is pretty good, especially if I get the hang of pet mob interception)

Kiss is currently not set up to pet tank. It is currently being worked on.

Well it sort of works :-). With better consistence on the intercept I can afk tougher places, obviously.
