Migrating to Trust

If you are a multi-boxer, you are likely already using several add-ons and custom scripts for things like healing, following, singing, rolling, etc. Trust consolidates all of this functionality into a single addon-on, allowing you to use fewer add-ons. Below are the add-ons that you no longer need to use:

Add-on Trust replacement
EasyFarm See Trust.
FastFollow See Follower.
Singer See Singer.
Healbot, Cure Please See Healer, StatusRemover.
Rollbot, Roller See Roller.
AutoRA See Shooter.
AutoWS, autoSC See Skillchainer.
autoMB See Nuker, MagicBurster.
attackwithme See Attacker.
AutoPUP See Puppetmaster.

Tips

Below are some common multi-box scenarios and how to accomplish them with Trust:

Battle

Automatically assist a party member, engage and switch targets when the party member switches targets.

  1. // trust assist party_member_name
  2. // trust set AutoEngageMode Mirror (// trust sendall trust set AutoEngageMode Mirror to update for all Trusts)
  3. (optional) // trust save (to update the default value of AutoEngageMode in the settings file)

Combat Positioning

Automatically assist a party member, only approach when the party member approaches and stand where the party member is standing in battle. Use this in situations like Dynamis, Omen or Sheol C where you want to avoid running into a pack of mobs inadvertently.

  1. // trust assist party_member_name
  2. // trust set CombatMode Mirror (// trust sendall trust set CombatMode Mirror to update for all Trusts)
  3. (optional) // trust save (to update the default value of AutoEngageMode in the settings file)
