possess essence & ACT

Hi,

finally got my mythical last night

Now I was looking through the threads here to find out about best pets and found the following:

Quote:

just as a guess, use custom triggers in act to see if the mob you are fight is trouba/dirge, then grab them rest is allways lousy but free dps

Can someone give a little more detailed information on this? I know basics about ACT, but how can you separate mob spells from group spells thus the trigger does not work when you have a troub in your group / raid etc.?

Thanks for any advice!

I use the following reg exp for Troub:
.*(a |an ).*Brilliant Blade.*|.*(a |an ).*Deafening Strike.*|.*(a |an ).*Kian's Destructive Anthem.*|.*(a |an ).*Piercing Shrill.*

The "a" or "an" is my attempt to filter out spells from pets (including only trash mobs), as I think our brigand's pet was triggering my assassin expression.

I have no idea if other people have better expressions, but this is what I put together. I wonder if troub mobs in other new zones use other spells that what I've listed... I'll have to check that out at some point.

For a dirge, I use .*(a |an ).*Singing Strike.* | .*(a |an ).*Reproaching Discante.* I never bothered to use too many triggers, for troubs I just use Destructive Anthem, and have it trigger an ACT timer for "Bard mob." You could just have it trigger a beep or other wav file for each type, etc.

Due to the spell name modifications... anyone who has the correct new expressions for me? ;)
