Question - What is best spell settings for chanter for max spell casting?

[jdkars]

I have my chanter bot loaded up and she takes forever to cast dps spells. Anyone have any suggestions on how to make this chanter cast as fast as refresh is up? Here is what I have in her ini atm.

[DPS]
DPSOn=2
DPSSize=19
DPSSkip=1
DPSInterval=0

chanters cast slowly.....

if in doubt check out IHC's IHCmerc set, his chanter macro is pretty damn good

 

[eqtrader74]

Yeah are they slow on single mobs? Like nothing mezzed? Mez will take priority over DPS, so they'll be spending cpu cycles checking on that which can slow their DPS.

I don't see an issue with your DPS settings. You could post your whole ini in case there is something else that is causing a slow down.

[jdkars]

is what i am currently using, the only thing that i see that conflicts is single tash in group section versus the ae bite.

 

[jdkars]

shouldnt have an effect though on slow dps casting on single mobs, with only one in camp though. I watch her and refresh will be up on spells and she just casts slow as can be between spells.

 

[eqtrader74]

Mez - Try setting your MezRadius to something lower. 50 is the default. This might be making KA scan a lot of mobs if you're in a tight packed area.

debug - Could just be the mez radar running to look for nearby mobs between casts. When running KA, type "/debug on" and you'll get more updates in your MQ2 window about what KA is doing at any time. See if you see any msgs during the DPS cast delays. If your tank can handle it, try turning the mez section off for awhile and see if you get faster DPS casts.

Debuffall - Try setting this to =1 and see if it improves DPS. =2 is a stronger setting that places more emphasis on your DPS slow/tash casting. Probably not your issue, but worth checking.

Conditions - These do slow down your CPU a tiny bit, so you can remove some that aren't needed. Again, I think this wouldn't be a noticeable slowdown, but worth checking.


DoTs - If KA casts a DoT it will also handle not recasting it until it wears off. If you might also cast it from another section like Burn or AE, then yeah you'd want to check if the mob has it first.

edit: The conditions don't seem to match the DPS entries for a lot of these. Maybe check them all to see if you're using some older ones that you meant to edit?

Debuffall conditions - KA will handle the checks for things like "slow" or "tash" automatically. Check these two DPS items & conditions, looks like maybe you had older versions and they no longer match. DPS2 is casting Tash but the condition is looking for specific slows. DPS3 is a slow, but the condition is checking for a dot.

DPS2=Order of Tashan|100|debuffall|tash|Cond1
DPS3=Slowing Helix|100|debuffall|slow|Cond2

Cond1=(!${Target.Buff[Dreary Deeds II].ID} && !${Target.Buff[Turgur's Swarm VI].ID})
Cond2=(!${Target.Buff[Deluding Constriction].ID})

KA will handle the slow/tash check (any tash/slow will be checked) if you use debuffall, so they can just be this:

DPS2=Order of Tashan|100|debuffall|tash
DPS3=Slowing Helix|100|debuffall|slow

Mindslash/Sunder Nukes - These two main nukes are checking for dots in their conditions:

DPS14=Mindslash|96|Cond3
DPS15=Mindsunder|95|Cond4

Cond3=(!${Target.Buff[Mind Tempest].ID})
Cond4=(!${Target.Buff[Strangulate].ID})

So make those with no conditions:

DPS14=Mindslash|96
DPS15=Mindsunder|95

Those should help out. I'd suggest you give your whole dps/conditions sections a once over just to see if there is anything else in there you no longer need.
