Can /pet swarm be added to Mq2Melee?

[ominous24]

Hey guys, title says it. Can it be added to either melee or bot?

Thanks

Was going to ask the same thing..

Keeping in mind I don't actively play much...

1) What exactly does it do?
2) How do you envision it being used?
3) How would that setting(s) look in mq2melee?

Thanks.

Basically, it allows pet classes to make traditionally non-controllable summoned pets (e.g. - host of elements) attack on command.

Same as /pet attack but for swarm pets.

Probably the same as usepet.

I'd make it a toggle on or off, since sometimes people will use them on adds etc. Already having cast a spell on the NPC so probably superferlous to check a HP %

The command is "/pet swarm".

To explain simply, if you've ever played a mage and cast all those swarm pets and then the mob dies in like .2 seconds and you are standing there like WTF, that was a waste, you now have the option for the remainder of their uptime to send them at new targets by targetting a mob and /pet swarm.

Wanted to bump this, I know its the holidays, but any idea if this can/will get added?

 

[purekilling187]

Bump - Anything on this yet?

I am also interested in hearing a status on this. It doesn't seem like it would be very difficult to make this happen. I wouldn't want this task to remain incomplete because it was forgotten.

Thanks.

I've got it on the list as a feature request, but haven't started it at all due to higher priorities.

thanks HTW!

Any update on this?

 

[Whacknstack]

I didn't see this one

I made a post recently asking for the same new feature, but I didn't realize that there was already a request in for it. Feel free to delete my post found here Request the addition of swarm pet click Sorry about that.

htw did this get done or is there a way of saying "if mob being attacked is at x% and not invis and we have aggro then /pet swarm?"

Not sure this is the best way of doing it.

Thinking more like

/if (${Target.PctHps} < 80 && ${Me.PctAggro} > 0) {
    /pet swarm
}

I don't think there is a need to check for a mob being invis. I've never encountered a mob with aggro on me that decided to be invisible. But I haven't played like the last 3 expansions, so I suppose anything is possible.

Also it's unlikely the dev's are working on any new features with all the jazz of the recent MQ2 update going on. But again, anything is possible?

just saw this asked and I wasnt sure if mq2bot or mq2melee have that ability

I think I can make a holyflag for it

/if (${Me.CombatState.Equal[COMBAT]} && ${Target.PctHps} <98 && ${Target.PctHps} >90)  /pet swarm

im guessing ${Me.PctAggro} > 0 is another way of saying if im in combat state?

I think i am going to stop mq2bot from casting malosinete aa and make a holyflag for it and will multiline it to add /pet swarm to it

 

[Dealings]

this is working for me, had to turn off malo from mq2bot

downshit1=/if (${Me.CombatState.Equal[COMBAT]} && !${Target.Buff[Malosinete V].ID}) /multiline ; /pet swarm ; /alt activate 1041

same can be done for other classes (find a spell or aa they use EVERY fight and tie pet swarm to it)

Ideally eventually it would be a melee option maybe or a mq2bot setting , perhaps just tied to where ever /pet attack is located

 

[burdsjm]

Why the Malo trigger?

 

[Dealings]

fast recast mage casts it at beginning of every fight only has to cast it once, it shows on mob as a debuff so helps tlo check does mob have this or not

just meets criteria for what i needed it to do and works phenomenal atm
