Belphegor the official combat routine - We need you're feedback to improve it!

The "HasHydra" test in wizard.cs seems unreliable - I think it might be the trying to identify the owner of a hydra messing things up (is it trying to get this data from one of the three hydrahead entities rather than the main hydra at times, which doesn't have that data, and so failing to identify a hydra is already up?).

Regardless, as most people would, I imagine, bot single-player games, I found this to be much more reliable and not re-cast Hydra quite so much in the HasHydra check;
Code:
var summoned = ZetaDia.Actors.GetActorsOfType<DiaUnit>().FirstOrDefault(u => u.Name.Contains("HydraHead") && u.Position.Distance(unit.Position) < 30f);
(and you can delete/comment out the "int dynId = ZetaDia.Me.CommonData.DynamicId;" line immediate before this)
Instead of the current check which is;
Code:
int dynId = ZetaDia.Me.CommonData.DynamicId;
var summoned = ZetaDia.Actors.GetActorsOfType<DiaUnit>().FirstOrDefault(u => u.SummonedByACDId == dynId && u.Name.Contains("Hydra") && u.Position.Distance(unit.Position) < 15f);

Might be worth adding exceptions too - ie, only cast if more than 2 enemies within XX feet, unless they are elite in which case always cast.

We scan for if it was summoned by you in case your in a group with another wizard also using hydra. Ill increase the range to 25f for the next release let me know how it goes.

Were looking into it getting the wrong hydrahead atm.
 
Further to my above post about Wizard Hydras, I've tried to expand the Wizard auto-skill selection on levelling, to auto-skill a wizard all the way from level 1 to 60 with what I consider (even if others may disagree!) the best skills for the way the bot currently handles. It switches skills/runes a few times as necessary, and fills all three passives. Might be nice to have this until/if nothing better comes along, especially if we're not too far from DB allowing Kick to implement his 1-60 levelling profile(s)!

Ill add that in thanks.
 
Barbarian not using War Cry / Sprint anymore. Any Idea what it might be? Restarted DB, D3, PC and reinstalled DB - no change.
 
Mammon is fantastic at the moment. I think what needs serious work on is out-of-combat intelligent skill usage. Things like using smoke screen to accelerate movement, using preparation when low on discipline, and sprinting inbetween fights.

edit: nvm, i confuesed this with mammon, that one is still using sprint!

At the Sarktoth runs my barb doesn't use any of the high dps spells like "Wrath of the Berserker" "Earthquake" "Call of the Ancients". But he is using "Sprint" infight... very helpful :>
 
thread is tl:dr but one of the worst things as a wiz is how it casts hydra on the top of the screen for no reason at all, would be best to cast it on your current target or on yourself
 
What exactly is Belphegor combat? I selected it to try it and my Wizard goes mad. She will run right up into the face of mobs and use the most basic skills, nothing else. Am I supposed to configure it or something? I see no option to.
 
is working ok but isnt using WoTB it shouldnt waste rage on sprint either while in combat because of this is why its not using WoTB and it also doesnt use Threatening scream off cd either.

WoTB should be used on Elites only, Same with threating scream TS should be used off CD so thats its up on the boss 100%.

I had the wrong mob flag, he is a Unique mob and so ill go through and add this in.

Should work in the newest release btw.

Neither Bel or Mammon use Sprint anymore during Sarkoth runs. Sprint was shaving a good 10s off my times, and I've dropped about 50k-80k gph. Running the latest version of DB.

Same question here. Would be great to get some basic explanation....

Tks
 
Combat seems to be smooth, but it's not re applying threatening shout thnx for the routine :)
 
Preparation - Battle Scar should be used at 40% HP. (Demon Hunter)
