Ok, as I've said before, I'm new at this... but from what I've read here and in the source code, I'm pretty sure that this CC is supposed to take over both shot (spell) selection as well as movement into melee range and continuous tracking of the target. I am using LazyRider and obviously I'm responsible for movement of my toon up until the point where a target it selected and within range. I thought though that at that point, I should be able to take my hands off the keyboard and watch the CC work the fight.
What I'm finding is 1) often times I have to initiate combat by hitting the first blow (hitting my button for a range attack) or it will allow even targeted enemies run on by... although sometimes it will initiate the combat on a targeted enemy as designed. 2) At no time has this CC taken over the movement of my toon even after combat has begun. If I don't move my toon to the target, it will simply throw ranged damage and will just turn towards the target.
Now don't get me wrong, the damage and healing it does is probably better than I could by myself, especially since all I have to do is manually move him as combat is going on, but it would probably be even better if the CC was taking the movement during combat. Once in particular, the CC actually seemed to fight me, turning and stopping my toon as I was trying to move him into melee combat range.
2 logs are attached.
12:21 - initiated combat, but stayed at range until I finally took over and moved him into range.
12:25 - same
12:27 - Wow crashed (only time this has happened has been since I started using HB)
Restarted and rejoined the same BG
12:36, 12:37 - same as above
12:39 the bot actually fought me on this fight. As I tried to move my toon into melee range, it repeatedly turned him in a different direction and stopped him.
We narrowly lost this BG - and although I did decent damage, I'm sure it would be better if the bot was moving the toon once combat began.
LazyRaider disables all movement. If you wish for mastahg's CC to use movement in-combat and handle movement out-of-combat yourself, you will need to use the Combat Bot BotBase. The bot doesn't do anything until you use an ability because you are not flagged as "in combat" until you initiate combat with a target, thus control is never handed to the CC from the BotBase.
