I like to run my mage as main assist, and tank in my group. He breaks mezzes with swarms. The one problem being that if he heals his pet, or buffs his pet, and is main assist, with the top slot of his extended target set to main assist. He will never stop targeting his pet again. His target, and top slot of extended target will remain his pet. He just goes into this cycle:

Hope this makes any sense. Currently I just /bot usepetbuffs=0, and /bot healpet=0 if he is pet tanking, and this still works good. Just have to buff him manually every few hours.

So if he is MA and pet Main tank, he shouldn't need xtar 1 as MA Target? should be Auto hater?

I don't set my warrior or sk xtar 1 as MA or MT target

accurate
 
Ok yeah that seems to cause other problems, but maybe those problems would occur either way. It's been a while, but namely seemed to jump around targets a lot, and bother chanter. Thanks for input guys. I'm gonna give that a whirl again

Ya, the problem with having a pet class be the assist is when they heal their pets. you can just set the mage as main tank and set someone else as main assist. there are some setups you just cant get around due to changing targets. i do have a battle manager in mind but i have yet to do any earnest coding on it.
 
They changed recently the need for targeting pet for heals and buffs, not sure anything requires targeting pet short of equipping weapons. So should be all good now, unless a macro or plugin specifically targets the pet when casting stuff

The plugin does specifically target the pet. i didnt realize targeting changed. i will change the plugin to check for single target only.
 
- Spells that target your pet will no longer change your target to your pet, similar to how items that cast spells on your pet do not change your target to your pet.

Not as recent as I thought, but my days are all blended at the moment eh

i added cures to detect and list when you /bot on but nobody ever provided feedback. im not moving forward with it until detection is working correctly.
