Is HB as safe as Pirox was / is it as easy to setup?

So, I've been using pirox for a few years and ye, since he shutdown I might get honorbuddy..

However I think these forums are very vague, for example I can not find anywhere what HB actually contains, all I know it's some sort of wow leveling bot. Compared to the Pirox site where you could see everything each bot included.

I can't seem to find a News forum, where a moderator updates with info related to the bot, like new version, possible ban waves, bans of other bots. Basicually I have no idea if HB is safe to use or not.



Answer these 2 worries of mine and I will most likely buy HB if I like the answers :)!

Well it's a closed community. If the bot were detected (and it isn't) would we really want the entire world to know? Would we want Blizzard to know they succeeded? Think about it a bit.

Incidentally, HB is much safer than Pirox and has an extremely competent and talented development team.
 
No but you would want your users to know. If the bot one day was suddenly detected how would I know that?

On another note, I've seen that there is a profile that lvls using quests, is it possible to set it to start somewhere in the middle of the profile? I have a lvl 38 warrior, can i set the profile to start questing in WPL or wherever the bot chooses to be around this lvl.
 
If the bot is suddenly detected, you won't be able to run it. It will shut down automatically. This feature is called "tripwire".

The questing profile can start wherever you want it to. If you just change a settting (ignorecheckpoints) to "false" it will start where it should based on its level.
 
HB is easier than pirox if you want a basic set-up, the more advanced and experienced you want your bot, the harder and annoying it is to set up.

If you really want it perfecto like no other bot, you're going to have to start coding your own CC/Profiles/Plugins, but, only if you're super paranoid.
 
ty for answers. i just bought it :)!

Welcome to the community :) and... This has been the safest bot I've ever used =] + the Dev's are very Honest and Open. If you have anything you want answered. All you need to do is ask =]
 
Found a guide to follow however iam stuck at the part after extracting the files. It says i shall go and get the 2 latest versions of some stuff,

You most definitely want ForcedMail.xml and ProtectedItems.xml files, but the one that ships with Honorbuddy may be slightly stale. You can always obtain the latest version of these files (maintained by the Community) from here:

Honorbuddy: A prototypical ForceMail Element
Honorbuddy: A prototypical ProtectedItems Element

so i press these 2 and I cant find any dl links. Should I just copy the code and put it in a xml file or what :S

make sure your wow is in direct x9 and make sure you have .net framework installed and you'll be good to go.. There are guides around somewhere

I'm not too sure what you mean mate. What you need to do, Is open wow, have it in windowed mode, then once the files are extracted ( all the files that were in the HB Zip ) are in 1 folder. rightclick on the Honorbuddy.exe and run as administrator =] it should open Honorbuddy

I'll try to answer your questions best i can coming from a fellow Pirox owner to another.

Part of the reason the forums are more vague is that there is much less to do when it comes to setting this bot up, and also alot of the bots success is because they allow users to write their own plugins and Custom Classes.

First, you do not manually set-up combat based on timing, like first strike is key 1 then 3000 ms later hit key 2. Instead there are custom classes that users make that go through whole rotations, there are plenty of them out there so it's as simple as finding which ones you like and select the bot to use that one, it's that easy.

Secondly, the bot has it's own navigation system, meaning you don't need an exact waypoint to waypoint in order to get somewhere. Instead you just need hotspots that tell the bot where the action is, the bot will then download meshes from the game and figure out how to get to that hotspot from it's current location so it's a much smarter bot. Because of this isn't not as necessary to make your own profile as it was with Pirox because even with the same profile the bot can act differently. Almost any profile you want is in the forum and available for download. Also because of the bot is safer because it seems more human like.

Third, on top of what Pirox did, this bot does more, yes, Kickazz has done an awesome job making profiles that will actually quest for you, you can actually set the profile to skip quests that are too low a level, however i don't recommend this unless you need to. To do so edit the profile with wordpad or notebook and search for, QuestOrder IgnoreCheckPoints="True" and change True to False. Also when you download Kicks profiles under the questing profiles there is a plugins folder, copy all of those plugins and past them into your bots main directory inside the plugins folder, without those your bot will have problems.

Fourth,
I've had the bot about a month now, i've leveled 2 chars to 85 without even knowing there rotations and i have 200k gold, and that's within the first month, now that i understand how the bot works i think i could double that gold in a month. I would also like to point out the Battle Ground bot (there are different bots within HB) was recently revamped and works quite well if your interested in BG leveling it's very easy to use and i got full honor geared in 3 days.

Cheers and good luck i think if you spend the time to get to know the bot you'll realize it's even better than Pirox was.
 
Btw Nate, I completely agree =] I used Pirox for a while about 9-10 months ago.. I'm sure it came along a bit since then.. But I've always found HB to be just that much more =]
 
thanks for post nate. Maybe Iam just stupid atm cause Iam really tired but atm I have a lvl 37 warrior and I need to start quest lvling with this. Do I need to download a warrior setup or what? Iam currently in the configuration window and it says Gift of the Naaru HP 30. But Iam no dranei, what do I do with this option?

I go to Class Specifics and the bot have already seen that Iam a warrior, so it has a few warrior abilitys in here. First one is Bladestorm? True. However since Iam low lvl I dont have bladestorm yet, do I need to turn this off then?

Tbh Iam really clueless, you said that I dont need to write in what buttons the bot shall press but how do i make the bot hit abilitys, i havent set up anything :S

The defualt custom class "singular" should work just fine for warriors. I'm not very good at explaning stuff by typing.. But I can go though all the setup and stuff on teamspeak or skype or something.. If you'd like that?
 
its auto loaded. what you need to do is click on options on the bot, go to class set up, then choose your spec, by the sounds of it ? I can't currently look cause I dont have it on this computer, but.. you don't need a "warrior profile" it built in. make sure its on quest bot, and then go into options and look for class or custom class or advanced options or something. it will be in there. I thought it would have auto detected your spec though..
