This has become much more stable. Gearsets are in a place where they will not likely change.

Most of the testing now involves ensuring the most flexible gear swapping in at the correct moment for various situations a Puppetmaster may find themselves in.

Please keep in mind that this currently a work in progress and any feed back you can provide will be helpful in improving this gearswap for puppets everywhere.

Requirements

Mote-Libs is used for this gearswap. By default Windower/Gearswap provides this within its lib folder.

Notes On Pet Equipping Weaponskill Gear

This is currently how we determine when to equip a pets Weaponskill Gear prior to it using:

When the player has less than 1000 TP we will skip equipping the Pets Weaponskill Gear unless the pet is in PetStyle SPAM or DD, otherwise if player has TP we equip the Pets Weaponskill after the player.

The gearswap will further check the PetMode for:

• If PetMode is Tank and the Style is NOT set to DD or SPAM. - The gearswap will not equip Pet Weaponskill Gear
• If PetMode is Mage - The gearswap will not equip Pet Weaponskill Gear

If we pass the above checks then the gearswap will equip Pet Weaponskill Gear prior to the pet using its weaponskill.

Notes on Equipping Enmity Gear

This is how we determine to equip pet enmity gear:

If a Fire or Light Maneuver is active and the pet has any of the following attachments:

• Strobe
• Strobe II
• Flashbulb

We will equip enmity gear when the recast time is less than 2 seconds. Once the pet uses its ability then the player will revert back to the previous gear.

One item to be aware of is that this currenly reads the chat log for when the pet performs the skill. If you are out of range of seeing this message then you have chance to simply staying in Enmity Gear. If you need to be futher way, then you want to consider locking in Pet DT Gear.
