Alias Question

[Zzyzx]

Hi all. I'm having trouble with a simple Alias command.
I would like to incant spell #306 with both hands empty and in an offensive stance. This is what I have:

306=stow runestaff\rstance off\rincant 306 channel\rstance def\rready weapon\r

This works up to the channeling. After channeling it does not go to the Def stance nor get my weapon. I tried adding a "wait 3" command after the channeling but it does nothing after I channel.

What am I doing wrong?

Thank you!

Try pause 3.

[Zzyzx]

Nope. It still does nothing after I channel.

[Riltus]

How about this: channel\r\p\p\p

[Zzyzx]

Nope.

Do you run ;voodoo?

I think I'd try 306=;e ;fput "stow runestaff" ;fput "stance offensive" ;fput "incant 306" ;fput "stance defensive" ;fput "ready weapon"

Also, do "incant set channel 306" so it will channel 306 auto if that's what you want.

Why are you emptying your hands to channel a bolt spell? Does that actually do anything better than a normal channeled bolt spell?

[Donquix]

There is no benefit for open hand casting with bolt spells afaik, unless you're like trying to test if they added something to that effect and neglected to mention it in the update for bolts?

;alias set 306 = ;e waitrt?;multifput('stow runestaff', 'stance offensive', 'incant 306 channel');waitrt?;multifput('stance defensive', 'ready weapon')

should do it

[Soulance]

They say it does better to be open handed, but I don't think I've ever seen it worth as much as leaving yourself possibly stuck in offensive and without your runestaff protection. And, I am pretty sure there really isn't much of a benefit to locking you into a hard RT with channel on top of it all.

Thanks all. It works now. I removed the word "Channel" in my original post and did the "incant set channel 306".
