Question - What is the best thing to use to just cast spells and combat abilities?

[deathlock]

Simple enough.

Just looking to cast spells and hit combat abilities as an SK.

Something that turns on and off. No target selecting or moving my toon around.

MQ2Melee holyshits and downshits.

MQ2Melee holyshits and downshits.

I do not want it to turn on attack. Can that be turned off?

MQ2Melee doesn't turn on attack for you. It only sticks when attack is on. Which you can adjust the stickrange to 1 or something really small so it doesn't do it.

How do you adjust the settings for holyshits and downshits in MQ2Melee?

Maybe I'm misunderstanding you, but why don't you just use KA and turn off MQ2Melee in your ini? Then, you could use the esc key and MQP ON/OFF as needed to deal with aggro.

Because KA selects targets for you and as a tank, I need to be in control of that. This is in a raid with 54 other people and MQ2 isn't exactly openly used by all.

Isn't that what KA in manual mode was designed for? Turn on what you want and turn off everything else?

 

[Redbot]

Knightly is right, use KissAssist manual mode. I do it on my newbie SK in video #5 here:

(skip to 10:20)


I turn mq2melee off, but CWTN has a good suggestion to change stickrange to 1. I don't think it will select targets for you if you're tank, but I may be wrong.

In manual if you have Burn turned on, KA "tank" will still auto-swap targets to any Named in range. I don't think you'd need to run it in tank mode though.
