Description *

Pulling enemies with precision without attract extra enemies in the process can be a necessity sometimes and contributes to avoid wipe out a party or raid. The default tank attack button will send the main tank in route to the enemy targeted. But why not allow pull the enemy using a ranged ability/spell?

I think this can be achieved by adding some extra buttons alongside the Tank Attack button. The add-on can add buttons with the following commands to allow pulling enemies from a distance.

@tank cast Taunt
@tank cast Shoot
@tank cast Throw
@tank cast Heroic Throw
@tank cast Growl
@tank cast Hand of Reckoning
@tank cast Death Grip
@tank cast Icy Touch

Steps to reproduce

Expected behavior *

A perfect behavior would be sending the tank in the enemy direction and use these abilities/spells when in range. The group would be put on stay and after the enemy is pulled, the tank would flee to near the group and only then everybody start attacking.

Anyway, allowing the use of these abilities/spells already improves the player ability to pull enemies, and perhaps something similar can be done with crowd control spells too.

Hi, i can put buttons in multibot for all this pull buttttttt. The problème is that Playerbot module needs to handle that, the strategies are coded in the module, Multibot is only a interface, so its better you copy past this request in Playerbots Git and if someone write the code i can update Multibot to use it.

Hi. I made some test before post the issue. Invoke the casting when the tank bot is at range already works, pulling the enemy. As you said, the tricky part is to make the tank go at range and run back to the group automatically. I will post the request there.
