I'm trying to figure out how to lock AC during Sneak Attack and during WS. Usually I have SA/AC/RS but when I swap Rudra's Storm gear it takes off my Assasin's charge gear, even though I have the rule. I'm using the same rules I use to lock Climatic Flourish for DNC but it's just not working.
<if spell="Assassin's Charge">
<equip when="precast" set="AssC" />
</if>
<if BuffActive="Assassin's Charge">
<equip when="engaged|precast" set="AssC"/>
</if>
and then I have a set for AssC. Ah... Maybe I should do this--
<if BuffActive="Assassin's Charge">
<equip when="idle|engaged|resting|precast|midcast|aftercast" set="AssC"/>
</if>
But that didn't work.
Any help it great.

Assassin's Charge XML Rules
I may have misunderstood you, been up since stupid o' clock, but you could try:
Code xml <if mode="and" buffactive="Assassin's Charge" spell="Sneak Attack|Rudra's Storm"> <equip when="precast" set="ACRS" /> </if> Alternatively, this one should check to make sure you have SA, AC or SA & AC active: Code xml <if spell="Rudra's Storm"> <!--Check if using Rudra's--> <if buffactive="Sneak Attack"> <!-- Check if you have SA active --> <if buffactive="Assassin's Charge"> <!--Check if you have AC active --> <equip when="Precast" set="RSSAAC" /> <!-- Put on Sneak Attack/Assassin's Charge WS Gear --> </if> <else> <!--Else, no AC active, put on SA WS Gear--> <equip when="precast" set="RSSA" /> </else> </if> <elseif buffactive="Assassin's Charge"> <!--No SA active, check for AC only --> <equip when="precast" set="RSAC" /> <!--Equip Assassin's Charge WS gear --> </elseif> <else> <!--Sneak Attack and Assassin's Charge not active, using regular WS gear --> <equip when="precast" set="RS" /> </else> </if>

how would AC up and Down gear sets look like?
Just the belt, feet, and ring. I could go further and get rid of the double attack gear but it can still double attack on top of triple attack as far as I am aware.

Unless you're using Rudra's (probably even if*), I'm pretty sure Assassin's Charge is best put to use for TP gain. To be honest, I wouldn't even suggest meriting it, but.. meh.

I could go further and get rid of the double attack gear but it can still double attack on top of triple attack as far as I am aware. Right. Which is what I was thinking but wasn't for sure. Fenrir.Jinjo said: » Unless you're using Rudra's, I'm pretty sure Assassin's Charge is best put to use for TP gain. To be honest, I wouldn't even suggest meriting it, but.. meh. ... I believe I worked out that AC is a loss when used during TP phase, break-even when used with SA/TA (stacked, so JA only takes 1 second delay), break-even for DE/Evis, and a gain when stacked with Exenterator (and I'd assume also a gain with SB/Mercy/Rudra/Mandalic, though I haven't checked).
What I'd do is have gear sets: WS-Exenterator-Normal WS-Exenterator-SA WS-Exenterator-TA WS-Exenterator-AC WS-Exenterator-SATA WS-Exenterator-SAAC WS-Exenterator-TAAC WS-Exenterator-SATAAC Then: Code
<if spell="Sneak Attack">
<var cmd="set SAActive Yes" />
<equip when="precast" set="%Spell" />
</if>
<elseif spell="Trick Attack">
<var cmd="set TAActive Yes" />
<equip when="precast" set="%Spell" />
</elseif>
<elseif spell="Assassin's Charge">
<var cmd="set ACActive Yes" />
<equip when="precast" set="%Spell" />
</elseif>
...
<if type="Weaponskill">
<var cmd="set WSTag -" />
<if mode="OR" BuffActive="Sneak Attack" advanced='"$SAActive"="Yes"'>
<var cmd="set WSTag $WSTagSA" />
</if>
<if mode="OR" BuffActive="Trick Attack" advanced='"$TAActive"="Yes"'>
<var cmd="set WSTag $WSTagTA" />
</if>
<if mode="OR" BuffActive="Assassin's Charge" advanced='"$ACActive"="Yes"'>
<var cmd="set WSTag $WSTagAC" />
</if>
<if advanced='"$WSTag"="-"'>
<var cmd="set WSTag -Normal" />
</if>
<equip when="precast" set="WS-%Spell$WSTag" />
<var cmd="set SAActive No" />
<var cmd="set TAActive No" />
<var cmd="set ACActive No" />
</if>
Note: The reason for the variables for SA/TA/AC being active rather than just checking BuffActive is that I've found that it takes a second after the JA is initially used before it registers as being active for a BuffActive check. Normally that doesn't matter, but it certainly affects thf stacking its JAs. So if I did SA+WS, I'd only swap into WS gear, not SA+WS gear. The code also needs to check for those variables and reset them to No periodically, but the logic flow of that is a little more complicated. Well the reason I dont think any of these are working for me is because I have AutoExec rules for SA/TA. So I'm still stumped.
Not sure how AutoExec would change anything I suggested. Assuming it works on JA use and not on the buff icon showing up (I'm not sure; I've never used AE), just have AutoExec set the variable value instead. If it depends on the buff icon then just stay with the spellcast var set (though honestly I can't think of anything that AE could do better than SC in this scenario, aside from clearing the vars when SA/TA/AC buffs go away).

Not sure I understand it all but let me try. Chiner's Belt and Demonry Ring. Phoenix.Shiomi said: » x_x Hmm. Not sure I understand it all but let me try. It'd be something like: Code xml <register event="gainbuff_Sneak_Attack">sc var set SAActive Yes</register> <register event="gainbuff_Trick_Attack">sc var set TAActive Yes</register> <register event="losebuff_Sneak_Attack">sc var set SAActive No</register> <register event="losebuff_Trick_Attack">sc var set TAActive No</register> Yeah those are about the rules I have.
Here is my spellcast maybe you can better explain it by looking at it. I took out all the AssC rules I had. http://pastebin.com/4uGrmrad So I got the Assassin's charge set thing to work. Probably more complicated than it should be however now the SA TA rules are no loner working.

I can't really say though, I've not used AutoExec much outside setting up Day/Weather alerts/auto-accept PT invites. |
