Entertainer Archive

I am currently Muscianship I and only 500 into it.. It's going VERY SLOW. It's a pain-in-the-butt to sit there and click a flourish every 10 seconds. I got a script from sombody but it only does two flourishs and then stops. Currently i am using the rock song with a Fizz. Does anyone have any scripts they could share? please post them here or e-mail them toJorako @ msn.comThank you very much in advance for your help.

There's a decent thread about flourish combos going on in the Entertainer board, look for the title "Song Macro Exchange". There's a Rock macro in there that sounds pretty good.

Ok, some things to consider:

1: Drag the flourishes from the "Other" tab of the action window (ctrl-A) onto your hotbar. That way you can /flo to your hearts content using just the function keys.

2: There's no way to repeat a macro or alias. Any script will just do a set of commands, then stop.

3: You can edit an alias in a plain text file in your SWG directory (the main one, not the one for the account/character). Use /load <filename> to bring the aliases in, and you have to do this for each play session. You can have multiple aliases per file, just have the first word of each line (no spaces allowed) be the alias name, followed by all the commands on one line.

4: Scripting longrandom flourishing (especially in large groups) just sounds bad. I admit I'm guilty of this, but right now I'm limiting it to solo gig missions until I get some nice aliases (see number 5). I've gotten enough into the game where I feel like I'm cheating myself from the better aspects of the entertainer class by treating it as an artisan churning out crap items and destroying them just for the craft xp (which I've also vowed to stop doing).

5: Make song/instrument specific aliases. Some flourishes just sound better in a certain order, and since their different for each instrument type, you have to be specific. Keep them somewhat short (under a minute), and try to put in some /pause 10 to let the audience hear the oh-so-rare baseline song. Maybe make up a couple for each song, and call them both from a macro. You're a musician, make a song! Heck you can even try to do up lyrics for it, and combine the flourishes with some /sing or /rap calls.

6: Try to keep any alias/macro (or combination) less then five minutes. Trust me, if you're planning to do any trading (even just getting a Caf from the bartender), having a running macro tends to cancel it.

In music you need to click 2 flourishes at the same time to get good xp. I have to imagine it is a bug of some kind that we don't get full xp for just one flourish, but this is the way it is for now.

Place this in the F1 hotbar slot and press it to loop it forever. If you want to stop, just type /dump
