Hey,

Saw quite a few samples of chanter macros in the depot - anyone care to share which they have been most successfull with?

cheers,

They all suck at doing a true enchanter's job, someone needs to write up an intelligent add checking and mezzing routine. I don't quite think I'm the druid for the job though.

There's a couple out there that work well for just assisting/debuffing/nuking, it's really a matter of personal preference though I'd say. The chanters I know just use them in conjunction with /mqpause when they need to break off an mez adds. That, or they just let them run wild until Cr4zy does their job for them.

I'm going to try to dig up my old mac that did this, it's VERY old code, so if I don't rewrite it I'll be putting it up on the mq1 archive...which still isn't old enough to hold it.

I've been working on and off on code that tracks mobs around a player. I am gearing this code for a very slow computer, so that tracking is done like every 2 seconds. I believe a routine like this would be the core to any chanter program. Throw the closest 8 mobs into an array, and have arrays matching the spawns to hold information like 'is this slowed? tashed? aggro'd? mezzed? tanked?' My intention is to have a chanter mac that runs player buffs and debuffs in the same fashion, because as far as the script goes, they are kin, using the same buff timing engine for either.

I am not an expert scripter. I can write simple foraging scripts and so forth, but this is a very large project, so I will start by posting snippets in the appropriate forums, and see how code fragments go over with the script experts. Any comments are appreciated.
