Yo, so...i currently just perfected my profile(well only a few sticks) any how. a big problem came about after i mapped out Tower of the Curse lvl 2, the harpies have their stupid $%^&ing minions, anyways problems arise when the harpies die and the minions do not, because then they are friendly YET DB still targets them, and will sit there using your skill to kill them. any ideas on how to ignore them? i tried modifying Gilesignorestuff, to do my bidding. but i think since its a unit it will not work. any ideas?
 
You may have to make a plugin that iggnores all mobs on that world id so it will just run past them all then re enables killing when you get far enough away or something. An example of this can be found in the Lt Vachem plugin. I have taken to altering some of the code in that plugin to fit a few of my custom profiles. At any rate wish you the best, look forward to seeing your finished profile :D

To add onto this post, i just thought of how you may be able to acomplish this. I am not sure how skilled you are in C# but if you wrote a plugin that switched you in and out of combat just for the time that you are in the world id. What i mean by this is have it set to a timer, you will attack monsters for 10 seconds, stop attacking for 2 seconds, start attacking for ten seconds, stop for 2.... and so on. Because they are unclickable you toon will not run to them so in turn each two minute window you will be advancing... this may make the profile horribly long in that section but it could work... another way is setting them to priority before the sucubus is killed... because you can kill them if the succubus is not attacked first.

You can add their ActorSNO's to the blacklist in my Giles Monster Priority Changer.

If you get their ActorSNO's and do this, would you mind sharing all the SNO's you found of units that should always be ignored, so that I may add it to the next public release of monster priority changer?

Also, you can change monster priority changer to output the internalname and actorSNO of any mobs it is trying to target if you like. Open it up and find this code;
Code: 
                            // Bonuses to priority type monsters
                            //Logging.Write(tempUnitWithWeight.diaThisUnit.Name);
                            if (hashSetPriorityUnits.Any(s => tempUnitWithWeight.diaThisUnit.Name.ToLower().StartsWith(s)))
                                tempUnitWithWeight.iThisWeight += 100; // These are generally from the hashlist of monsters that spawn other monsters

And replace it with this;
Code: 
                            // Bonuses to priority type monsters
                            Logging.Write(tempUnitWithWeight.diaThisUnit.Name + ". SNO=" + tempUnitWithWeight.diaThisUnit.ActorSNO.ToString());
                            if (hashSetPriorityUnits.Any(s => tempUnitWithWeight.diaThisUnit.Name.ToLower().StartsWith(s)))
                                tempUnitWithWeight.iThisWeight += 100; // These are generally from the hashlist of monsters that spawn other monsters

It will then constantly output any unit it sees as a valid target to DB output window (careful, this can get spammy :P).
