SpellCast is telling me that it is sending the command to equip the legs when I turn on ShowGearSwaps.

Ah, there it fires. I guess something changed with spellcast recently, I've never had an issue with it before. Thanks.

Anyone have a Bst xml to copy and work off of? Tried looking on windower's user submitted xml but there is nothing available.

**cdgreg** · 2011-06-12 12:28

Currently my whole WHM Spellcast looks like this:

Code:

<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<spellcast xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude">
    <config />
    <variables>
    </variables>
    <sets>
        <group name="Main" default="yes">
            <set name="Idle">
		<lring>Dark Ring</lring>
		<sub>Bugard Strap +1</sub>
		<ammo>Incantor Stone</ammo>
		<head>Wivre Hairpin</head>
		<body>Orison Bliaud +2</body>
		<hands>Serpentes Cuffs</hands>
		<legs>Stearc Subligar</legs>
		<feet>Herald's Gaiters</feet>
		<neck>Twilight Torque</neck>
		<waist>Emphatikos Rope</waist>
		<lear>Moonshade Earring</lear>
		<rear>Loquac. Earring</rear>
		<rring>Dark Ring</rring>
		<back>Umbra Cape</back>
            </set>
        </group>
    </sets>
    <rules>
        <equip when="Idle|aftercast" set="Idle" />
</rules>
</spellcast>

What I really want to do though is use a precast set with cure clogs and Aceso's Choker, and then a regular cure set. I already have the regular cure set in .txt form:
input /equip main "Surya's Staff +2"
input /equip sub "Bugard Strap +1"
input /equip ammo "Incantor Stone"
input /equip head "orison cap +2"
input /equip neck "fylgja torque +1"
input /equip ear1 "roundel earring"
input /equip ear2 "Loquacious earring"
input /equip body "orison bliaud +2"
input /equip hands "augur's gloves"
input /equip ring1 "karka Ring"
input /equip ring2 "tamas Ring"
input /equip back "Orison Cape"
input /equip waist "Swift Belt"
input /equip legs "Orison pantaloons +2"
input /equip feet "Zenith pumps"

So I imagine it's simple enough to create another set=Cure. But I'm baffled from there as to if I need to create another set=precast and then a rule? Thanks in advance, I tried looking at advanced whm spellcasts, but that was operation overload.

Will this pre/mid for any spell I cast on whm? I'd prefer it only to be cure and curaga spells.

I didn't think I needed to spell it all out.

Ya, I know nothing about spellcast, so I appreciate you dumbing it down for me! I won't need anything special in my in-game macro right? Pretty much just /ma cure <t>?

**Manque** · 2011-06-12 23:28

for whatever reason, my SA and TA aren't working gearswap wise for my THF xml. Sometimes it switches out, sometimes it doesn't. It seems to switch out for me when i'm disengaged, use SA, then engage, but not during battle.

Can someone see if something is going on with my xml for me? I would really really appreciate it. I've been copy pasting a variety of xml's together to make one and have solved other minor problems, but can't seem to get around this one...

Thank you ; ;

When="Engaged" is the very instant you attack, not all times when you are engaged.

Something like

HTML Code:

<if mode="or" spell="Sneak Attack" buffactive="Sneak Attack">
	<equip when="engaged" set="SA"/> <!-- when you pull weapon w/ SA up, it'll equip SA gear-->
	<if status="engaged">
		<equip when="aftercast" set="SA"/> <!-- If fighting, SA gear will be equipped after any action while SA is up (or if SA is being used) -->
	</if>
</if>

This doesn't handle right after you use the SA charge very well though, but that requires either you to hit a macro right after every SA/TA'd hit or autoexec.

**Manque** · 2011-06-12 23:56

I'll try fooling around with this then.

Thank you for your time and suggestion!

**Skie** · 2011-06-13 13:57

Trying to make a thf xml for a friend. We got it working but the main thing we looking for but dont know how to do is handle th gear. We want th gear equipped on engage, then once th is applied switch to tp gear. how would you handle this?

**Yugl** · 2011-06-13 14:15

Since there is no "action" once TH is applied, you cannot make a rule around that. It used to be the case that you could just do a workaround like Engage > Wait Xs > Change gear, but now that you level up TH you cannot do that.

Why not?

I just have my TH gear equip for /range. Anything I want TH on I just make sure to throw my boomerang at it first, then engage like normal.

I'm curious as well. I thought the 1st hit puts your on the level of your equipment, then any procs automatically climb from the starting point of TH?

**Manque** · 2011-06-13 15:10

My thf .xml that I posted above has good TH lock rules that have worked for me!

It toggles the lock on and off using a /ma "cure VI" <me> macro I believe

**Skie** · 2011-06-13 15:13

trying to do the ra trick but having issues with it. The delay is what i was going for. Like engage and equip th gear, after 15 sec swich to tp gear. Anyone knwo rule for that?

Here is the ra rule that not working

Code:

<if Spell="Ranged Attack">
	<action type="equip" set="TP " when="Precast" />
        <action type="equip" set="Tp_Haste" when="Aftercast" />
</action>
</if>

**Radec** · 2011-06-13 15:26

It's <if spell="ranged">

Also don't need the </action>, the />'s at the end of the line close the action tags.

Side note, probably mean

<action type="equip" set="TH" when="Precast" />

but entirely depends on your own set naming.
