Melee IWT madness

[Rokins]

What do you guys do to deal with the ridiculousness that is your slaves running around the mobs relentlessly when using IWT? I just dont know how you do it :P Especially if you are trying to do legit attacks.

[ghonosyph]

Step 1: press the back button
Step 2: stop moving with tank so that the mob stops moving(this is the important part)
Step 3: press iwt again
Step 4: ....
Step 5: profit

another way is to not move your toons too much, and basically place the mob by placing the tank well (in short, move tank, not slaves)

[jstanthr]

your not spamming iwt are you? i only use it once after my tank has grabbed the mobs.

[Khatovar]

Don't spam it and reduce the range that your toons need to move. I leave my melee slaves on follow or drop them off where I plan to tank and only press interact once or twice.

If you spam it, your toons will swarm around the target (especially if the target moves), but you'll have to deal with toons running off, when the target dies.

The fix is to quickly hit your follow key. Or alternatively, to give the toons another target, and continue to IWT spam. You can also backwards move or strafe, to end the movement.

Sometimes the camera will spin about in a small circle. The fix for that is to right click on the ground anywhere, which will have your toon move to where you clicked, which re-aligns the camera.



My IWT is set up like this:

Every other press sends my IWT keybind to all of the toons who are in the melee action target group. So only the melee toons have the IWT spammed.
It actually is a "Do Mapped Key Action" on the odd presses.
You can run "execute a step on press or release" instead of on release (default).

Then I have another mapped key, which enables/disables (effectively a toggle, but two steps) my Melee IWT Mapped Key.
So when IWT is enabled, my "1" key (which is my Click Castsequence spam key) also sends IWT to my melee toons.
But when I disable the IWT Mapped Key, the Do Mapped Key Action does nothing since that key is disabled. So I am still spamming my "1" key, but it is not sending IWT to anyone.



I also have IWT on its own keybind (another mapped key), which sends IWT to every window. I use this one for questing, flight paths and the like, and do not spam it.

Having your toons run around the target like crazy is good for pvp though, and I think it's funny to watch even in pve, just have click to move off on your main so you can keep your camera in one place even if you're gonna spam IWT.

marco to turn on and off

/run if GetCVar("Autointeract")=="0" then ConsoleExec("Autointeract 1") else ConsoleExec("Autointeract 0") end

I had two experiance where my toon stuck on strafe. Normal CTM and did keys didn't stop it. I forgot what i did to stop it. The first time was my tank. I was like /dduuuuuuuh. Its a wonder i didnt wipe. Is it ITW or just Plexor stuck on the key?

[Longshot17]

I usually run through the mob with my tank then turn it around so I'm looking back at my group (they are standing at the mobs back), then hit IWT.

So as mentioned above stop moving, hit IWT once or twice (no spam).
