Problem - Toons switching to MA's target when they shouldn't...

[ycleptjah]

Having a bit of trouble with something...I have my tank set up to pick up adds as they come in, but I'm running into the problem of other toons immediately switching to the adds as well and getting smashed before tank can grab aggro.

How can I keep them on the original mob until it's dead?

I have TargetSwitchingOn=0 set on all of them.

Hey yeah, I had that thought and tried that out. But they'll still attack the incoming toons as their current mob is below the % of health left for them to assist at, that triggers them to be ok attacking the new one.

TargetSwitchingOn is only looked at by the MA and is defaulted to 0(off) for all other toons. TargetSwitchingOn is so you can manually switch targets on your tank/MA and not have him switch back to his original target. It does not apply to the other toons NOT switching targets when the MA switches.

they always follow the MA's target. You need to use AE agro abilities to grab adds without switching your tank off the mob to be killed.

He's got a mod'd KA that punches any mob in camp that isn't 100% aggro on xtarget. Like the old auto-war did. Somebody shared the code awhile back.

May need to mod your Assist's to lockon first target and only swap when targets die.

Thanks as always, I'll see if I can manage that without blowing everything up.

maybe just use a different tank set up. mq2war is great!
