killian e3 macro newbie questions

Post by robot » Thu Jan 01, 2015 3:34 am

Hi all, I spent a while trying to figure this out myself. Most of it works great, first time, but I have these issues I'm hoping to fix:

1) In the .ini for my Cleric, how do I make him cast a heal on someone when their health drops below 90%? I noticed there is a Cleric section and also Heals, but I tried putting this and it didn't work:
Heal#1=Greater Healing/gem2/90

2) Any tips for how to tidy up my shaman? I wanted him to start by casting slow and then melee and cast nukes. The melee part was easy to make him attack, and then I did this:
[Nukes]
Nuke#1=Walking Sleep/gem|3/0m/Delay|40s
Nuke#2=Spirit Strike/gem1/30m/7s
It seems to work mostly but often he will get interrupted because he tries to cast the slow while moving. Any easy solutions to that?

3) My Bard, I am new to melodies as well as MQ2 so this was tricky for me. What I wanted was to have him twist a few songs during combat, and then out of combat have the run song for travelling around. Is there a way to automate that? I got some working by making a new section in the ini called Fight Melody and then I had this
[Bard]
Auto-Melody=Fight
It seemed to do the fighting part great but I could never get him to stop that melody so even out of combat he kept twisting those 3 when I wanted to just travel somewhere.


Thanks in advance!

Can't say I am familiar with that macro off hand.

Generally speaking you will get a better, more accurate and informative response if you post in the thread where you got the macro. The other folks who use the macro are more likely to see your question, and it shows you already tried to find the answer on your own (via reading g the rest of the posts on the thread at least)

Or at the least other folks will have a reference to the mecro your asking about (when we get lazy and just click "view unread posts")

Thanks for the reply, there doesn't seem to be a thread about it that I can find, the macro came from a google code page. I also made this post on the PEQ forum first which is where Killian is from and the moderator there deleted the post and the nice reply someone gave me... :(

Where could I go from here? I was so annoyed the moderator deleted my post, it took me a while to arrange the questions properly and a kind person gave me a really good reply which I read, but then the post got deleted. So annoyed considering the macro was made specifically for their server and other people seem to talk about it there, but for some reason he treated my post like an act of terrorism.

Ask killian to start a thread and post the macro here in the macro depot or something or you can do it it's open source according to google so I don't think he would mind... People won't comment on a macro they can't easily copy and try

It actually is a bit weird that the macro isn't here already cause I mean we uhm do have a few emu players hanging here from time to time but meh *shrug*

Thanks :) I think I am sorted now anyway, I asked in game and a few people helped. I just had my syntax wrong and I learned a new command to switch melodies.
