Honorbuddy improvements

[Honorbuddyuser1]

I'm certainly no expert so some of my suggestions/improvements may already be available and unknown to me. Sorry if that turns out to be the case.

Dungeonbuddy

1. Ability to run older raids solo
2. Ability to run LFR's that result in Cooperation Packs
3. Ability to run all LFR's (Although that may be in the works)
4. A pause key

Questing

1. After leveling many characters in WOD, I have noticed that certain quests always bug. They've bugged from the beginning and they bug now. I'd like them to be removed.
2. Garrison Fishing Quest to unlock my Garrison fishing area and do the mount.
3. Randomization of quests in as much as it can be done.

Those are basically the only 2 bot bases I use aside from Enyo, and overall I think the questing is really well done. I just want more options, particularly in my Garrison. If I had to pick one thing that would be most helpful, it would be a hotkey to pause the bot. Oh and of course I'd love a 64 bit version so I can run my game at its best, but I get why that isn't on the table at the moment. I've read the post. If anyone else has any suggestions I'd love to read them. If I listed something that is already in the program, let me know.

Dungeonbuddy:
1. Tons of profiles available for older raids, both on the forums and in the store. Studio companion, and echo tiger's profiles can achieve just about anything you're probably looking to farm.
2. Been mentioned several times by others, and is probably going to be available as a plugin sooner rather then later. SatchelScanner addon is capable of telling us when they're available, so theoretically honorbuddy should be able to do so as well. it will most likely be a plugin however and not incorporated into the dungeon buddy bot base.
3. See here - ALso, the official writer of honorbuddy has a lot to do in terms of making these profiles available. For now oleary has made some non-official profiles that seem to be functional enough to cover the wings dungeonbuddy doesn't cover with the exception of Archimonde.
4. Most combat routines are able to be paused if this is what you're looking for, otherwise it would be a nice feature to have.

Questing:
1. See this post. Removing the quests isn't really an option in a lot of cases because the questing profiles go for the most optimized routes and most of the time you have to complete quests 1,2,3 before 4,5,6 become available. It's like that in most of the questlines, and similarly so the profiles tend to follow that.
2. Unsure if there could be paid profiles available that would do the questing for you, otherwise there are some fishing profiles available in the professions sub-forum as well as in the fishing buddy sub-forum.
3. Randomizing quests isn't ideal, as I described above- most quests have an order they're meant to be completed in. Players generally stick to that order, and as such so should the bot.

----

It's good to see your suggestions, and while yes there are plenty of things we would all love to see implemented into the main honorbuddy program- that's a ton of work for honorbuddy developers to maintain and keep track of and as such it falls to our top community contributors and staff members such as Kick's, and echotiger and others to provide us quality profiles and things to do stuff the bot allows us to do, we just have to tap into it's power. Forum searching here and there, and often times googling what you want followed by honorbuddy can typically bring something up of use. So just keep your eyes open, and do lot's of browsing because new thigns pop up all the time and developers are eager to see you test their products.

Decent ideas; non original but all with the right intention.

Now in terms of implementation, the HB team is currently super stretched so i wouldn't expect them to do anything anytime soon, that will be up to the dev community.

In essence, you're asking for a new version of HB, something we've all been requesting for years from HB including telling them we'd be happy to pay more, but the HB team is happy with their current state (keeping in mind they have been in litigation for years now with Blizz), so its best just to feel with it all and hope for the best.

Botting WoD leveling on Horde side is a headache, +1 to that idea.

Been using HB for a while now, some profiles get updated from the feedback they give. Some don't get touched or tuned at all.

Honestly overall pretty good quality programs that are being sent out (free or paid)

-Best way to go just learn how to write your own profiles!
