Does Drain Samba HP drained from regular hits count as additional damage or just a % of damage done to a mob = drained hp?

It's additional damage. Your killing blow never drains HP because there's no more HP to drain ergo it's actually draining HP from the mob directly.
It's actually not additional damage. You can kill a mob by draining it, a mob can kill itself hitting you with dread spikes up, but you'll never kill a mob w/ the dmg from samba, because it deal no damage.
yeah Blood weapon was the only draining move like that which causes additional effect damage, Bloody bolts function the same as Drain samba, happens at the same time of your attack but drk 2 hour can kill a mob
Actually it's the other way around, BW doesn't do any damage and bloody bolts do.

Make a macro made up of smaller scripts.

For example, let's say you have fastcast.txt and then MACC.txt, and let's say this is your macro.

/console exec "Fastcast.txt"
/wait 0.3
/ma "Herb Pastoral" <me>
/wait 0.3
/console exec "MACC.txt"

Not as complicated as you'd think.

My first stupid question is what the hell is up with grellow? Who decided to call it that originally and why?

Grellow does not exist.


Asking what the hell is up with grellow is like asking what the hell is up with those Romulans.

Hrmm, I was doing that and it didn't seem to be working. Thanks though, I'll look at it later on.

//exec "Whatever.txt"

You might have to mess with the timing, but it should work. Otherwise you can do it all in one .txt.

Just use "input /equip head "Gear" <me>;" and "wait 0.3," without the slash.

It's a name, not a thing. For example, I can't think of any items called Kingsly, that's just what we happen to call this guy at my old job because that was a name.

When that particular !! appears, a lot of us choose to go with the name Grellow. The same as a kid may name their Tyrannosaurus Rex action figure "Fred" It's not a Fred, it's a T-rex, but that's what they call it and grellow is what we call the particular !!

Next stupid question:

Why is it that every time I block Flionheart in forums posts, he somehow magically re-appears?

How many accounts does this guy have?

You're right, a term that removes any uncertainty and prevents a lot of arguements was definitely a stupid idea...

Mines a 2 part question.

Part 1 - Why is it every time I try to be as cool as Flionheart I just end up with everyone hating me and sounding like a total douchefag?

Part 2 - How exactly do you pronounce Elanabelle?

I don't see what's wrong with "green". It's not like people would get it confused with the red or blue exclamations.
