I tested 5c last night. Everything seems to work fine except that my heal song goes off 100% of the time. Which means I only get in 2 dots (since I twirl levitate in).
Gonna look at it this afternoon and see if I can figure out what's going on.

Just tested the mob-avoidance version on page 7...
In Eastern Waste, started the mac right at the top of the ramp that heads down to Kael. Then added Icefang and the Ghost mob that spawn to the right of the ramp to the avoid list. Also added the 2 guadrsman at the bottom of the ramp (one helll of a fall).
Works like a charm.

Well I have been using the script with mob avoidance code in PoS for awhile now, it seems to work great took forever to add all the mobs to the avoid list though. Anyone have any suggestions for an xp zone for a 65 bard that is more open than PoS? I have to really pay close attention when this script is running in PoS and would like to be able to at least look up and watch the football game a little while I kite =P

38 Bard using thie script with code from page 7 and the example in the code (example #2 to be exact).
Selos level 5 in gem slot 3
Dot's in slot 6 and 7
Heal song in slot 8
Then run the mac as
/mac chant 673 0 80 0 8
Targets mob and scripts begins ok...bu then I get repeated
MQ2 Checkin if Selosong!=0 current value for Selolvl is: ***Undefined-Global***
Any suggestions since selo's level 6 is being used and sloted in gem 3 like example said?

attn Crisdan:
The problem you are encountering is that you are saying zero for selos... the examples haven't been updated yet with the actual selos code.
just put selos in the proper gem from the first example. your dots/chants/whatever
Say selos in gem 2. dots in 6 7, and heal 1, snare 8
/macro whatever 67 2 50 8 1

OK so I've been using the "mob-avoidance" version on page 7 all day and the only error I can see is somewhat minor.
It seems that sometimes and very seldomly if you add a mob to the avoidance list, the bard still targets that particular mob.
I found that restarting, instead of unpausing, helps with this.
That is all

New Version!!
Rev 6 is here!
Fixes and Features in REV6:
...Much much better handling of level 5 selos (tested)
...Implemented Exclusion list code, a lot like ml2517's code but faster and easier to control (simple commands: /add, /del...) See macro header for more info
...Healsong is a required argument and is now the 3rd argument (radius is now the last argument)
...Changed the name of the file!! Its now advchant.mac
Take a look at the header information and be sure to familiarize yourself with the exclusion commands, and the new argument order syntax.
Things i didn't get a chance to implement this rev:
Weapon-switching, rubberband for anchor, expect them soon, however!

Always say what you want to say. Because those who mind, don't matter. And those who matter, don't mind.
Two comments from testing last night (only tested for about 20 minutes):
1. The requirement to enter /pause after starting the macro is mucho annoying. I just want it to start off by default.
2. Level 5 Selo's is being handled much better. I still saw it (once) cycle through the dots from the beginning after Selo's had worn off. That may be related to someone's earlier comment about packets being lost, though.
Personally, the mob warping bug has almost turned me entirely off of chant-kiting. Last night, in 20 minutes, I engaged 11 mobs and had 8 warp away. Absolutely ridiculous.

I agree... Its not very practical but I used it when testing so...El wrote:1. The requirement to enter /pause after starting the macro is mucho annoying. I just want it to start off by default.
Change the following (in Sub Main) in red:
Code: Select all
.
.
.
/declare AddBuffer global
/declare DelBuffer global
/declare PauseBuffer global
/varset AddBuffer waiting
/varset DelBuffer waiting
[color=red]/varset PauseBuffer 0 [/color]
/varset AlertList 10
/varset Exper $char(exp)
/varset AAExp $char(aa,exp)
.

.Interesting. I will do further testing with Selo's 5El wrote:2. Level 5 Selo's is being handled much better. I still saw it (once) cycle through the dots from the beginning after Selo's had worn off. That may be related to someone's earlier comment about packets being lost, though.
Can anyone confirm that snaring a mob will prevent warping? If so the snaresong argument will be implemented.El wrote:Personally, the mob warping bug has almost turned me entirely off of chant-kiting. Last night, in 20 minutes, I engaged 11 mobs and had 8 warp away. Absolutely ridiculous.

If it stops warping, and if you implement it... :-)
Not sure about how well this would work in actual practice.
Too many times, I have a group of social mobs following me about, with me chanting one down while the others are waiting their turn. Snaring my current target would cause me to run circles around it, with the other ones unsnared chasing me... I can see too many possibilities of our paths intersecting :-)
Perhaps if I could toggle it on or off at a particular point, or if it only snared at <20% or ???

Actually, even better than that. Its very easy to use $searchspawn to determine if there is more than one mob with x radius. Only snare when there is one. Sure, if the other mobs aren't social it might still warp but I'm betting this is rare.El wrote:If it stops warping, and if you implement it... :-)
