I know using MQ2 for warping/ghosting/etc whatever the hell it does is not aloud. I've been looking into getting it setup primarily for the /stick feature. However, I had another question to find out if this was "ok" or not.

Are we aloud to use the /twist feature to have say my boxed cleric continue to cast AE Heal? Would save me a lot of hassle having to switch every 3 seconds to be able to focus on added DPS or maintaining aggro on adds.

This would seem to me as okay to me, but I wasn't sure.

Personnaly its either you prevent use or you allow it. 
You cant allow certain features only.  What would prevent you from using the other "cheating" features?

I dont know, maybe Hunter can give an answer on MQ2 usage.

I think what he is asking is that if Hunter allowed the Map and Stick features, would he allow this /twist feature too.

I can only see him allowing it if it does not give an exploitable benefit to your character in game.  Since i do not know MQ2, or what that feature does, I would think Hunter would need to check it out first and decide if it was acceptable or not.

Basically it's the same as melody, but supposedly better. I just want it to constantly recast my clerics AE Heal, which allows me to take my eyes off that box a little bit and be able to focus more on keeping aggro w/ war and adding DPS with my other boxes. This way I don't need to switch every 3 seconds to recast.

And yes I'm asking if this would be acceptable  Grin

I thought somewhere hunter posted that using any functions of addons that replicate playing the character without pushing keys is a no-no. i dont remember where it was posted otherwise i'd provide a link.

Maybe later today Hunter can post a firm stance on this as it would really be helpful, but I don't want to be banned for doing it.

Well you can always do an in game macro with the hotkeys...

/cast 1
/pause whatever
/cast 1
/pause whatever
/call other key (dont remember the text)

and basically other key will have same... etc. it would simply loop

I would say that as Hunter has said that he would allow map and stick, and not allow any other features that would allow an unafair advantage, then you have your answer.

If other features were going to be added to the allowed list, then it could start a slippery slope downhill.


Just my opinion though  Smiley

You are probably right.  It would just open up a can of worms...

ok good news lol... the command is:

/ui action toolbarSlot##
where ## is from 00 to 23, for corresponding hotkeys from the bar. The first one is 00, last on first row is 11, first on second row (if you have one) is 12, and last on that row is 23. I'm sure you can figure out the rest.

Macro 1
/cast 1
/pause 30 (example... calculate time of recast/casting)
/cast 1
/pause 30
/ui action toolbarSlot01

Macro 2
/cast 1
/pause 30 (example... calculate time of recast/casting)
/cast 1
/pause 30
/ui action toolbarSlot00

This command pushes that button. You can even have it push itself. This allows you to loop your own macro using only the in-game features.

If you want to stop the loop, just change your hotkey bar to a blank one, or delete the key (it will still be in your abilities menu, of course, only delete it from the toolbar). Once the next cylcle is finished, you will hear a null button sound to indicate the loop is done.

Technically you can do whatever you want with this... who needs MQ2? Smiley
