Q. Does this handle Bandolier Swapping?
A. Not at the moment. There are MANY considerations that have to be made before we start swapping your gear around. If you want to swap back and forth with 2hander and a shield set check out this TankBandoSwap.Mac
Q. What "Modes" does this have?
A. Has access to all of the CWTN plugin "Modes"
Mode 0 - Manual --- Manual
Mode 1 - Assist --- assist your MA and returns to camp
Mode 2 - ChaseAssist --- chasses and assists your MA
Mode 3 - Vorpal Mode (Assist but no camp or chase)
Mode 4 - Tank --- tank stuff
Mode 5 - PullerTank --- pull and then tank
Mode 6 - Puller Assist pull and then assist MA
Mode 7 - SicTank --- sets a camp like mode 4, but does not sit down or return to the camp - useful if manually pulling
Mode 8 - HunterTank --- runs around in your pull radius killing stuff
Q. How do I make it not taunt?
A. You will use your tanking type stuff (including taunt) if you are in a tank mode (like 4, 5, 7, or 8), or you are assigned as Main Tank in your group window assignment. If you don't want to do tanking stuff (like taunt) put yourself in a non-tank mode (like 0 manual, 1 assist, etc) and don't be assigned as main tank in your group window. This will allow you to on-the-fly swap to doing tank stuff and non-tank stuff (like if you are off-tanking and need to swap with another tank). You can just quickly adjust your mode, or group assignment. Flow Chart > HERE <
Q. My tank is running out too far to grab incoming mobs when my puller returns to camp!
A. Assign your puller to the "puller" role.
Q. I am on TLP and I won't want to use "Commanding Voice".
A. You can add Commanding Voice to your blocked spells and you won't use the ability.
Q. I want to use Staff of Viral Awesomeness for pulling!
A.
Q. I want to use xyz aa/combat for pulling!
A. There aren't very consistent good options for pulling for warriors outside of either a clicky like you would add with addclicky pullitem, or with a ranged item like bow/arrow
Q. Epic 1.5/2.0?
A. We do not automatically use any epics for war.
Q. Why am I Not Pulling XYZ mob?
A. Not pulling a mob is almost always an issue either with your Navmesh or your pull settings. If you do a
Q. Why am i having issues with bow pulling?
A: Make sure you have your bow equipped, and arrows in your ammo slot.
We nav to the mob and if we find eq->mq says we have line-of-sight on the mob we'll throw some arrows. EQ is slow to update bow pulling because arrows have travel time, and then also take time to populate xtarget window. I would recommend considering using huntertank mode with everyone else chasing - it actually will net you more kills and less downtime. if you want to have a better pulling experience on a warrior - i'd suggest getting a staff of viral flux.
Q. Trying to go mode 1 but says I need a mesh?
A. The plugins require mq2nav for movement. You will need to run the mesh updater in your RedGuide's Launcher. Please watch the video > HERE <
Q. Sometimes a mob keeps hitting me but i don't engage? Ex. Dracoliches
A. This means you need to make your campradius bigger, as the mob is likely a "large" model mob and is hitting you from outside your campradius.

/war debugpull on once and it will cycle 1 time and spit out in your mq2 window all the mobs and why you are not pulling them. Compare the output with the mobs you think you should be pulling and it will tell you why. This will notify you if you have no nav path, or out of zradius, or regular radius, or on ignore, etc.Q.
