Question - Tank in Combat (1 Viewer)

[Aealket]

Is there a way to tell if my tank is in combat using the Top Level Objects? I am not using KissAssist (at least yet). I want my Bard to add a song to his twist using MQ2Medley If the group tank is in Combat, and stop that song if the tank is not in combat. All of my group are (very) low level and I am still trying to figure boxing out.

If this as been answered before, I'm sorry but my search did not find it.

Thanks

Try ${Group.MainTank.PctAggro}
That should return a positive value if the tank has a mob targeted and has at least 1% aggro on that target, which should cover almost any instance of the tank being in combat.

You don't have to use Kissassist Derple has made RGMERCS Lua really good and he keeps it updated. And of course you can go one step further for the ultimate boxing experience and purchase the plugins which I recommend if they are in your budget.

That did not seem to work, I'll continue playing with it though.

https://docs.macroquest.org/reference/data-types/datatype-groupmember/ is a good resource to tell you what's possible and what isn't.

You can use a https://docs.macroquest.org/lua/actors/?h=actor to get your value, or you can iterate through extended target for Aggressive flag if you're in the same group.
