Also remember this:

@Var Pinlegger
#IF (@pinlegger=Ixion) {heartstop}

Outstanding.

Won't work. You forgot to trigger the pinleg message to search for the name and store that name into @pinlegger. I could load your code into my system and it'd never fire. happy.gif

Durrr-- too lazy to make it code that would actually work; used just enough for the joke. bop.gif

Joke would work better if the code would actually do what you intended it to do! Otherwise, it's just a failure. happy.gif

but but, what if I don't have heartstop?? Then how will I heal the pinleg? crying.gif
Soll2006-09-18 17:47:37
Well, it normally goes away by itself after about 3 seconds. tongue.gif

Doesn't pinleg prevent heartstop? I'll have to test this sometime.
Sylphas2006-09-18 18:55:14
I'm going to make a trigger to heartstop if Ixion uses staredown on me.

I'm going to get a mage to illusion an Ixion staredown when Sylphas is in the room.

I particularly would like to see if Ixion could get a Pinlegg on Geb without aid from others. laugh.gif

Well, he can get it on me in one combo sometimes sad.gif

Why couldn't he? He generally gets it on the first lunge combo.

Just alias "sip" to "drink %1". There. All better. Don't even have to change your ways or your system. (Well, except to allow for sipping when pinlegged!)


Won't be so simple in my case. I'll just load it up in a text editor and just do find and replace all sip with drink.

Geb (I think) has fullplate and racial resists. A lot of us are using regular greatrobes with no resists to the damage dealt.

Racial damage resistance doesn't do a thing against wounding.... right?

He takes less damage, so he can apply more often. (I guess that's what he meant.)

Ah, right, duh doh.gif
Sylphas2006-09-18 23:12:15
Depending on how fast Ixion can pinleg, how often he applies won't matter. If he pinlegs me in one combo, I can apply 80k times a second, but I'll still be pinlegged every time he hits me, aside from luck.

It does matter, because normally you guys are being Pinlegged by lunge combos. If you can survive that period of time where the lunges are coming in, you can avoid pinleggs after the power of the warrior is expended and needs to be regenerated from reserves. That is all I did as a mage. Worked to weather the lunges, and then commenced my real offensive during the time period where my stances and parrying would not be easily bypassed.

So, besides sip, what else is blocked by pinleg? I think I relized I couldn't clot (not sure tough).
