Ok, wanted to let you know. Dont launch a Lesson AA on a bard while twisting some songs. It will eat up your Lesson. Hence you end up with no buff, but the 20hour timer on your lesson button. Happened twice to me on this double exp weekend :(

Ugh,

Hate to hear that.
 
It's a problem with the way Bards cast spells (songs), not anything specific. =/
It's been around forever; would eat up epic clicks and such as well. You need to /stopsong, use the ability, and then go back into your melody/twist. You can make a hotkey for Lesson or any other abilities.
 
Awesome Blankstare! Made a hotkey and it worked =)

/stoptwist
/pause 3
/alt act 481

FTW!
 
This is a bug the game has had for a long time. There is another bug that will make you stuck in casting mode unable to do anything including camping out. About 3% of the time if you use a clicky item while in /twist you will be stuck like this unable to cast or do anything. I like to stoptwist before clicking anything.

Great to hear!
This didn't used to be a problem back in the old days of EQ, when there was maybe 1 thing to click, and we didn't min/max as much as we do now. Also, there was no /melody to automate twisting. ;)


Also, you can drop a /timer command (like the pause, put it on its own line or in front of another line) to replicate the red countdown of when it can be used again. Just like pause, each number is a tenth of a second; such as, /timer 300 will be 30 seconds, /timer 3000 will be 300 seconds / 5 minutes.

/stopsong will fix this problem for bards... Unfortunately if other classes lock up (more rare) you still have to camp.
