April 20, 201313 yr Hello, i'm wondering if it's possible for druid fight class as feral to prowl cuz it doesn't seem to be working for me no matter what i put in the conditions. Another thing about druid combat is that it approaches a target within 5 yards before it dismounts and goes into cat form. Is it possible for the bot to go into cat form as soon as it spots the target? if it is it's not working for me. Right now it looks unmistakably to be a bot in any BG doing that. Any suggestions? Thanks!
April 20, 201313 yr "catform" with target true and range to target 20 conditions would work perfect. High priority in the list
April 20, 201313 yr Range to target, bigger than 20. Keyword is bigger. Set range to whatever you prefer if 20 is too much.
April 20, 201313 yr Author that seems to be working.. but still not doing prowl /sigh any suggestions? Edit: Nop, nevermind, setting range to 20 makes the bot turn into a cat at range 20, then just stay at range 20 thinking it's a caster and can attack from afar or something. And Prowl doesn't work no matter what i do : <
April 20, 201313 yr Prowl should be a problem at all. What is the problem for you? Does it break prowl or will it not get into prowl at all? Shouldnt need any conditions at all. My first thought is to check "only use in combat" is false on your top right part of profile creator. Check those options and get back to thread with result
April 20, 201313 yr Author it doesn't cast prowl at all, and when i set range to 20, the character change to cat at range 20, and doesn't move closer than 20 before trying to cast any physical attacks.
April 21, 201313 yr It's because you probably have the Combat only setting on true. My first guess at least.
April 21, 201313 yr Also, it's a melee class, so leave the general range at 5 yards, and only change the range on the Prowl condition.
April 21, 201313 yr Author tried all that just now, still stays mount up until within 5 yard range of target before dismount>>Cat form and completely ignores the prowl option. Looks like a very lame druid lol
April 21, 201313 yr Author "Combat only"= False "Buff"= True Condition: "Have target"=True "Me in Move"=True Tried all but still only cast Cat form when it's right in the target's face (5 yards), and doesn't do prowl at all
April 21, 201313 yr Cast if mounted - true. I personally don't bother with prowl on my fight class, it takes way to long to program it properly, and even then, the bonus isn't all that much. I'm still under the influence of a lot of medication, so I don't dare try writing out a full example right now, but if I am up to it tomorrow, I will give you a full run down.
April 21, 201313 yr Author When i put "cast if mounted"=true it does Mount>Cat form>Mount>cat form and repeat, looks even more derp now lol
April 21, 201313 yr Try this. I use this for prowl leveling, works perfectly. Druid - Feral Cat - Levelling Prowl No Rip.xml
April 21, 201313 yr Regarding conditions, less is more. Never but in conditions coz you "think" it should be there. Most often you only need one, or two. And whenever you put in a new spell in your class you have to think through your priorities. A new spell can fk up everything. As your mount-catform-mount-catform just did. Less is more ppl, never forget.
April 22, 201313 yr Author i guess i kind of gave up now, it prowls sometimes, but most times before going in combat the druid goes up close to its target before turning into cat form, leaving no space to prowl. Maybe hopefully in future updates there can be different options for "action before entering combat" or "distance before action" rather, i think "target distance" just isn't enough for a more particular condition.
April 22, 201313 yr We'll get it to work for you, dont worry. I will take a look when I get home. Never give up
April 22, 201313 yr i guess i kind of gave up now, it prowls sometimes, but most times before going in combat the druid goes up close to its target before turning into cat form, leaving no space to prowl. Maybe hopefully in future updates there can be different options for "action before entering combat" or "distance before action" rather, i think "target distance" just isn't enough for a more particular condition. Action before entering combat can be achieves by turning combat, check if know spell, and target in sight to false, and manually setting two target distance condition (bigger than 15 and smaller than 40 works good). Distance before action is achieved with target distance, there really isn't much more that can be achieved from them when used efficiently.
April 22, 201313 yr Author Well i noticed if i set Cat form as a buff and uncheck the "use ground mount" option, it stays in cat form and runs around less bot like. Then when i set conditions for Prowl to items mentioned above it actually started using the skill. The key was to leave ground mounting out of the option. It lost some speed in traveling but it looks much better now!
April 22, 201313 yr Author the original issue was that it stays mounted up until it's in the target's face before casting Cat form, and that looked silly considering normal players would have went into cat form and prowled from miles away. Now taking away mounting option allows the bot to stay in cat and prowls whenever the conditions of distances are met.
April 22, 201313 yr Ahh gotcha. Upload a copy of your fight class, Loki and I will take a look at it and see what we can do bud.
April 22, 201313 yr Author Yep, here you go. I took the original form Dunduro and modified it a little, for survivallbility in bg use. Let me know if there's something wrong with it. feral_druid.xml
