E.g. this bit from the Dwarf-Gnome 1-60 by Hawker:
Code:
  <SubProfile>
    <Name>Troll Whelps</Name>
    <MinLevel>4</MinLevel>
    <MaxLevel>6</MaxLevel>
    <TargetMinLevel>2</TargetMinLevel>
    <TargetMaxLevel>6</TargetMaxLevel>
    <Factions>32 36 107 189</Factions>
    <Vendors>
      <Vendor Name="Rybrad Coldbank" Entry="945" Type="Repair" X="-6104.651" Y="391.6877" Z="395.5427"/>
      <Vendor Name="Adlin Pridedrift" Entry="829" X="-6226.09" Y="325.0958" Z="383.1523"/>
    </Vendors>

      <Hotspot X="-6371.81" Y="773.9807" Z="386.2139" />
      <Hotspot X="-6419.276" Y="644.1398" Z="386.9178" />
    </Hotspots>
  </SubProfile>

Eventhough minimum target level is 2, it still runs around killing lvl 1 wolfs. Same thing for my lvl 26 Pala, who are wasting time killing lvl 21-22 Crocs even though I have set minimum target level to 23.

Is anyone else having this problem:confused:
 
Your profile is structured incorrectly. My guess is where you got it from doesn't work correctly either. :)

<TargetMinLevel> is only valid inside a <GrindArea> element, not a <SubProfile> element. Here is the documentation for <TargetMinLevel>.

For a grinding starter profile, look here in the Wiki.

Hope it helps, and good writing!

cheers,
CJ

Ahh, I see. But how can I use <TargetMinLevel> with subprofiles then? I tried looking subprofiles up on the Wiki, but ended up even more confused:
http://www.buddyforum.de/mediawiki/index.php?title=Honorbuddy_Profile_Tag:_SubProfile

In the example on the Wiki they are placing the <TargetMinLevel> inside the subprofile-tags.
 
Nvm, I think it got it now. Is this correct?

Code:
  <SubProfile>
    <Name>Troll Whelps</Name>
    <MinLevel>4</MinLevel>
    <MaxLevel>6</MaxLevel>
    <Factions>32 36 107 189</Factions>

      <Vendor Name="Adlin Pridedrift" Entry="829" X="-6226.09" Y="325.0958" Z="383.1523"/>
    </Vendors>

This is sad. The Wiki is supposed to be a help rather than a hindrance. :D

I can't find what you're referring to by this. In the <SubProfile> documentation, it shows a <MinLevel> in the SubProfile, but <TargetMinLevel> is not explicitly called out on that page. You don't really need a SubProfile, but if you want to use one, here is your fragment rewritten that should work.

Code:
<HBProfile>
    <Name>Troll Whelps written with SubProfiles</Name>
    <MinLevel>4</MinLevel>
    <MaxLevel>6</MaxLevel>

SubProfiles can be confusing if your not familiar with a composite pattern. Checkpoints are preferred to SubProfiles by many Profile Writers, anyway. :D

Hope this clears things up. But, you need to help me figure out where the Wiki missed the knowledge transfer.

cheers,
CJ

Edit: Guess we both were writing at the same time. Yes, your post #4 should work if you move the <Factions> inside the <GrindArea>.

Checkpoints are only for questing behavior. When grinding, you have to use sub profiles.

It does for sure. Just tested and it works on both bots. Thanks you! + rep

Regarding the Wiki-confusion I was just to hasty and didn't see that it said MinLevel and NOT TargetMinLevel. My mistake. I guess the Wiki aren't retard-proof :o
