Yeah I know there are a ton of buff bots out there, but many are old/outdated and this is extremely
lightweight.

Not tested since adding the comments - hope it still works... Written in a UTF-8 editor so spacing
and line-wraps could be fluxx0r'd by this forum.

Use at your own risk: If you are a mac n00b, I'd suggest passing - this was not written to be used
out-of-the-box. I am merely sharing something I wrote and use. Its a cut & paste job so can't ensure
formatting.

Everything else that needs to be said is in the code notes:

Rich (BB code):
|==========================================================================================
| Down and dirty buff simpleton - 2016 Incognito - I name it: Schnook.mac
| It aint pretty, it aint smart, but it will buff your out-of-group toons (/tgb).
| I wrote this cause I dint want my SHM leaching XP from inside the grp and
| the grp performs much better with his buffs (namely Shm Maw, Haste, etc).
| The Maw line, even with AA's extending it, lasts just under 2 minutes. But
| it procs like a beast for everyone and I've never seen it resisted. It increases
| grp output 30 to 50% (along with haste). I use this for out-of-grp PLing.
|
| This can be adapted for any buff lineup. I separated the Maw proc since it's
| such a short lasting buff and I wanted it always on, always first. You can remove the
| ShortBuff routine if you don't have a need for something like that.
|
| The LongBuff3 is like a 10 second (8? seconds w/AA's) cast so it issues a /bct pullername
| //backoff cmd. THIS MEANS you need eqbc logged in both toons or comment out that
| code. One day I might add a flag or a check but as I am always logged in eqbc it works for me.
| You can comment out the LongBuff3 routine if you don't have something that long. It works
| well, worst case is that there are some 8 seconds of puller dps loss but that is way
| better than the normal 'puller out of range' for buffs scenario. My monk puller very rarely
| gets ANY of the buffs when the SHM is in grp running KA since it is always out of camp
| pulling. I normally see the puller get the LongBuff3 between freshly returning to camp
| and the mob just entering camp, so it works well for me.
|
| Set DebugFlag to 1 to turn on MQ2Win notifications. If your buff spell is multi-word
| surround the name with quotes like I did. It is recommended to send MQ2Cast's /casting
| cmd the gemnumber along with the spell name. Make sure they are correct or go thru the
| code and omit them else MQ2Cast will be trying to mem spells during critical cast times.
| I have not tested MQ2Casts ability to do so. Docos say it will default to Gem5.
|
| MQ2Cast will throw up aborting msgs ocassionally. That's fine, it is self-correcting
| and the code will always catch up next cycle. Its largely due to puller running out of
| range during the cast.

| Use this as an example/template for your out-of-grp buffing needs. An alternative
| would be to use KA, and a raid feature with one of the extended target settings, but
| I have never done that...
