Hey folks


I've been looking into SL, and reading your posts and I have a few questions, if ya wouldn't mind..


Basically, I have a Jedi, and a guild that hunts together a lot. I also havea char on another account. What I would like to do is have this other char be a MCM/MSL. This would allow her to heal, rez and enhance the Jedi and the group on guild hunts.


What I would like to know, is the effectiveness of MSL. Controlling 2 chars in battle is difficult, and I would like to set up macros that would enhance the group, while reverting to manual control to rez/heal etc. The skills I would have on a loop would be rally and steadyaim it seems, with the passive skills adding to the overall defence and TN of the group. What is the range on the passive skills, and the 2 active skills I have mentioned? Can I do as I intend, or would she have to follow me everywhere? Ideally, she would stay at a nearby starport and spam the enhancements from there. Is this possible?


Thanks again for your help

Well first off BAD BOT!!!!


Now to answer your questions. The viability of a MCM/MSL would require that it be kept rather close to the desired targets for benefit. Since the CU we don't know how ranges on many things have been affected and we know that some of teh useful things like /rally require you to be rather close. Also if you ware using any of teh CM stuff you'llneed to be close as well. So unfortunately we can't answer about the passives yet (some say they aren't working at all) and teh actiives would require some degree of proximity.

thanks for your reply


Thats a shame - I love the idea of SL - not just as a bot for my Jedi, but also for group hunts - but if its that badly borked - the skill points could be better used elsewhere


Anyone know what useful skills (apart from /sys) are definetely working?
