Coercer bot does not cast spells quickly

1. I have noticed that ever since I've had my coercer and using the bot that it parses really bad, most of the time, or maybe I am expecting too much out of it. It is parsing at 9% of the total damage of the group, (group is sk,dirge,BL,mystic,inq,coercer) I stopped to watch it and there must be some hidden logic I'm not seeing as it pauses in between casting lots of spells sometimes, for like 3 seconds, it will just sit there. I have crowd control off and the ca list has everything on it.

2. Also, I don't know why, but when in a campspot, it will not cast any spell except for the ones in the priority tab, (and yes the mob is in range of all of the spells) Is there setting to set the range that certain cas/spells can be cast?

3. Also it casts puppetmaster even though that is not on the ca list.

turn on the debugging options and see what its doing. and puppetmaster might be in pre-cast.

Alright that helped a lot. Looks like it was getting stuck while trying to cast possess essence since it was targeting the tank. Does anyone have any recommendations for how to set up possess essense? You have to be targeting an enemy directly, so I put it in the ca list as a maintained spell, and the only way i found to do this semi automated is to set it up to not auto assist when I don't have a pet. But then I have to manually select auto assist again when I have my pet. Is there an easier way?

Don't use it. That has worked the best for me... :)

Yeah, I rarely use PE anymore due to how long it takes to get a pet, and how short the pet stays alive. It does impact your DPS, but overall when not using it I runzones faster.
