It does me... & I'm staying down.
Now I played a tka master and I thought I knew the profession but I don't remember people staying down as long as I have been.
Seems as though when I'm knocked down lately, I stay down. I used to think spamming stand and curedizzy was the right thing to do but I can't stay standing lately and spamming stand seems to make it worse.
So can someone please tell me what I'm supposed to do to counter this? What's the best chances of getting back up?
I'm losing to master dancers for gods sake...

Never spam the stand command. For some reason that makes it worse.
There are special macros you can use that will almost guarantee a state cure on dizzy, but since I'm not a doc I don't know them.

I'm gonna post this on the doctor forum. I don't think there's a magic macro that'll heal me, but I'm tired of losing to a single move. I'm actually thinking about going back to tka master rather than fencer.

Generally I stand, wait a moment to see if I'm lagging and it happens (generally just watch to see if teh posture indicator by your name changes) an then try again. Just be patient really, and try to hit stand once every second or two...

make a macro that looks something like this:
/healstate dizzy self
/healstate dizzy self
/stand
/healstate dizzy self
depending on how much lag you have you might want to add a couple more /healstates before the /stand command, this will usually get you back up by your 3rd attempt or sooner
edit - also, the faster you spam it the quicker it works - usually

That is just how it seems to work for me. I've noticed in groups that itseems fairly random, as everyone seems to have slightly different approaches to what works for them.

You really think trying to stand once a second is the trick? I guess it beats lying there dying, but I've found when I hit stand too oftenI never get back up.

I ten do /stand every 2 to 3 seconds...but I've noticed that on some days I'm very hard to KD, and will stand up automatically 9/10 (comb. eq?), other days I get KD REAL easy and can't get up untill dizzy clears
these trends tend to stay untill server down
