Let me guess...

Your running this in Pauadal caverns?

Oh wait was I wrong?

So what server do you play on?

In all seriousness. Lets not advertise WHERE we kite. Its bad enough SoE is hunting people down running these things...

Updated. Avoidance seems to not be working though.

Will test further tomorrow.

Avoidance

Think the avoidance problem is why sometimes when a mob dies the mac turns toward your rubber and runs at it and almost gets you killed by running into your train?

The song array problem I see happen once in a while is when it turns on healing it says you do not seem to have spell memorized..

Well, the targetting algorithm needs work. If you have a fast mob down and it is running, you quickly run away from the pack. If the pack is light blues, there may be a dark blue on the other side of it and you can see why that is a problem.

If you run into problems, please type /pause and run to a safe loc. Then start dumping some of the variables to see if there is a problem.

/echo ${HealSong}
/echo ${PrevSong}
etc

This is not an afk macro, you know....

Bump. Fixed the avoid list and targetting.

Great macro. Found a minor typo in the instructions.

| The best way to use the avoid add command is to use a hotkey with this:
| /avoidadd $(Target.CleanName}

Should be a {

On another note I have been trying to adapt this to swarm with but have had limited success and was wondering if anyone else has gotten it or another macro to work.

Hunt by name mod

I'm trying to learn the new language and Im very confused. :oops: Can someone please mod this to only target a single type of mob :?: For example instead of hunting by level only hunting mobs by name. I tried my hand at getting it to attack only skellies in kurns tower against the back wall (since thats the only mob in the area), but it doesnt target anything yet.

I like the concept behind this mac and would love to mod it to work for my ranger. Bow mobs by name, drag them back to anchor point, root, snare, bow to death rinse repeat. However, I need a little push in the right direction.

Thanks all

Have you Tried http://macroquest2.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=6970 ?

requesting /lock functionality to switch from kiting around the mob, to kiting around a static point :)

I hate to sound dumb but what is the difference between AE kiting and swarming. I know chant kiting is doing a single target with dots. Is swarm considered charm kiting?
