I just started playing AC again after a 6 year break. Theres sooo much new stuff, new shadow race, lots to do, its great.

Now, i wanna level up some new characters. And i noticed they changed xp chains, alot. There is passup from vassal to patron, but after that it drops to max 10%, and thats max, its alot lower to start.

I remember when i was playing, 6 years ago, there was a decal plugin that would like control a second account character for you. You could use Dual Log for second account, log in a high level mage on second account, and then through as plugin, have that second character follow you around, vuln/imp targets for you, heal you, buff you, etc etc.

I cant remember the name of that plugin. Is this plugin still around, is there something out now that will do this?

I dont want to UCM, at all. This will be a second account, that im using, right here while im at the keyboard.
But the plug will control the character for me, follow the character on first account around, and do neat stuff for it.

Sort of like having a second account power leveler, but the decal plug is controlling everything.

Even if its just some basics, follow me around, heal me, vuln, whatever i can get ill take. Right now im having to alt tab back and forth every 2 seconds, and its alot of work. Just wanna automate this a little bit.

I believe it was called 'pocket mage', or something like that. That plugin is not around anymore. With the release of the 'graphics update' ToD expansion, all old plugins died that were not updated.

For a second account character healing and vulning for you, the only options I know of now are VTank and LTX.

which would be best/simplest to use.

Lets say i have account A and account B.
On account A i have a 90 og mage character. Then on account B i create a new shadow mage.

I want to play the shadow mage through all the quests and whats going on. Like just play it. But also have my account A 90 mage following me around when i want to just level up or kill crap.

So basically, which one will allow account A character to follow account b character around, and also be mindful of his health, and what mobs he is fighting, and imp vuln them.

I dont need like a whole lot more functionality than that. I dont need to auto loot things, or do all sorts of stuff. Just that basic functionality. Which would you suggest for this?

thanks again for the info

To change your name, you need a new account I think, or contact an admin.

As for which plugin to use, I'm a bit biased but I will suggest VTank. If you get the Virindi Bundle then there is a builtin chat that you can use to ask me for help if I'm online tongue

I too would suggest vtank. It had a bit of a learning curve, if you're used to lifetank, but if you take the time to learn it, you'll see just how much better it is (as long as you don't need UCM features). Plus, vtank won't crash on you after a couple hours.

yeah, it seems a lot mroe solid, especially with its nav ability. But its lacking alot in fine tuning ability. Not being able to set spells kinda kills it for me.
I dont need ucm. I dont need a whole lot of functionality. Just the basics, and vtank does most of it. But, being able to fine tune which spells are being used is a must. Not being able to create a spell profile for character/situations is kinda a show stopper for me. i like vtank otherwise. its perfect for non-ucm people, with the noted exception.

trying to use both atm, to see what happens.
