Help with mq2melee (trying to get this to back pets off on enrage)

[Darkon]

I have read the wiki and as far as I understand mq2melee should back my pets off during enrage. That is not happening. Melee is loaded it responds to commands I.E can /melee save and /melee load and get the expected replies in the MQ window. here is my ini any help would be appreciated.

Darkon, it should work. You are a melee class right? In combat? mq2melee will work for paper classes, but you'd have at least have attack on for options like that.

not melee class Pet class Mage to be specific. .

Hrmm they way I read the Wiki made me think that it would control the pet to make it back off when it saw the enrage message and then re-engage the mob after it showed the no longer enraged message My bad on that.

I use MQ2events for casters

[enrage]
trigger=#*#has become ENRAGED#*#
command=/pet back off

[nolongerenrage]
trigger=#*#is no longer enraged#*#
command=/pet attack

Nice idea man! And I like your avatar lol.

pets not backing off

I was poking through the mq2melee dll, just to see what I could find out on this subject. As, I far as I can tell... when enrage pops up, melee tells your pet to back off (/pet back) which no longer works, so pet does not disengage and dies. Which can be checked in game by typing [/pet back] as a command nothing happens.

But, if that were changed from (/pet back) to (/pet back off) in mq2melee file, I believe our enrage death of pets would disappear. Unfortunately, changing that error is way out of my realm when it comes to computer smarts.

I can do that, and will post when it's up. If you'd report back after that, on results, would be cool. Thanks for pointing it out.

Updated, give it a shot.

Works but 1 thing I noticed ~

That fix works does work htw ~ But, the one thing I noticed while testing it, was that the "enrage detection" did not always fire when a mob would enrage.
I was testing it out on giants in Frostcrypt and the "enrage detection" only fired on 1 out of the 7 giants that I fought in Frostcrypt. But the one time that "enrage detection" happened, my pet was successfully backed off from the mob.

I will throw out my mq2melee setting, just in case...

The one that is up now has some adjustments to it. It was using some odd logic around if you had both infuriate & enrage on. Hopefully the flags will catch properly now.

To make sure we are on same page, you & pet have to be engaged on same target, i.e., you can't be off on another or whatnot. Not saying you were, but just wanna make sure!

I will test it out the next time that I am in game.

I just want to make sure I am understanding this correctly. What you are saying is if there are two mobs in camp and they both enrage at low health(as most if not all giants in frostcrypt do) pet and I need to have same target engaged(as attack on)?

I do not remember having to have attack on before in order for pet to back off when a mob enrages. But, maybe that is because I haven't really ran across a area(except Frostcrypt) where there is more than 1 mob in camp, at a time, that enrages... heh

If I do need to have attack on, is there a setting that I need to have set properly so that my mage does not run up and start attacking the mob when I turn attack on?

Thanks for looking at this, it was pissing me off to constantly watch my pet die to enrage, when he should have been backing off.

Ya, at this point they need same target (always have). Maybe we can collaborate into some better handling of that.

As far as keeping your mage from engaging, I'd just turn off stick: /melee stickrange=0 save
