[PAID] [Mage] Portal - An Advanced Honorbuddy Mage Routine [PvE/PvP]

[hellomr]

The cr does seem to have a fixation in frost novaing pets and mobs, could u somehow add a pvp check for this?

Frost Nova is only looking at your current target. Not necessarily a bad thing frost nova'ing pets (since you dont really attack them) - it gets a full duration of the pet being stuck.

Okey thanks, I thought it looked on enemies near . 1 thing I gotta say about mouseover RoF, is that I don't think it should need a unit for it to work. It should just be a normal RoF but it clicks it also. (I want to place it where ever I want to place it )
It also feels like Cokx version of it is a lot smoother/faster. You don't see the green floor target thing by your mouse when playing with cokx routine, u just see the cast bar and RoF going off. Also I noticed that multi dotting works good on target dummies, but it never works on players.

I wonder this though, does this combat routine have any juking compatibility? Or is that up to the user.

One thing you could develop further is the pet attack logic and add a pet passive and pet active toggle key. The force pet to attack option in the cr isn't really optimal for pvp and it's a pain hitting pet attack on every enemy I encounter (pet assist is very bad).
If I am attacking a target and have it targeted, pet should attack that target. If I clear my target, pet should start following me. If I want to disable my pet, (he's dying or idk) I could hit the toggle pet key

 

[hellomr]

Actually I think Force pet attack setting combined with a normal petfollow macro is enough. No need to further develop it I think.

Update from SVN if it's not working. Needed updating for the new version of HB.

[10/Apr/2014]
- Added 'Dragonmaw War Banner' (Galakras) to 'Kill Totems' option.
- [Frost] Fixed a potential issue with multi dotting.
- Minor change to improve responsiveness of Counterspell.
- Changed Counterspell target cast time threshold system to react slightly better.
- Fixed a bug with Incanter's Ward, cast on X units targeting us option.
- Incanter's Ward on X units targeting us now ignores healers.
- Added cast Blazing Speed on melee unit in range attacking us.
- Changes to DRTracker to better handle Bladestorm.
- Improved Ice Block usage to react faster.
- Will no longer attempt to CC units with Dispersion.
- Hotkey RoF will cast on ground faster.

Idk but it do tends to dot up pets, and if I put an enemy on focus, it seems to dot up that one. But I see no multi dotting of players that I haven't targeted or have on focus. Am I doing something wrong with settings, or is this intended or was this update suppose to fix this. Does it only multi dot enemies that are very close by, or how does it work.

Another thing is that sometimes cr just blankets counterspell, without the target casting. I think I have seen this on a few mages.

 

[theaadark2]

Please remember: the more dots up: the more procs. From what i have observed, it actually only dots what you set as target. So changing target adds a new dot

 

[hellomr]

Btw if we could change hp setting for presence of mind polymorph healer it would be golden. That setting would be the best presence of mind setting if the user could change minimum hp.

Actually lol it seems to work now ^^. But I have no idea the logic behind it.

Thanks for these updates. Was a bitch trying to cast ring of frost for some reason efficiently at least in a timely manner. Also Faster response from Ice Block clutch. Was a lil iffy when I'd below as the routine would sometimes over power manual casted Ice Block even though it should have done it it's self.

There is no way to check victim of spell casted by enemy?
If someone targets you it doesn't mean he will hit you (even for PvE).

For maximum profit Incanter's Ward (pve) should be casted exactly before incoming damage Maybe it's better to read combat log and check this damage? If you getting some -- cast Ward and hope you'll get enough to activate 15% bonus asap? Reading log will help to get bonus from aoe also, not only single-target direct boss/adds damage.
Routine could even analyse number of damage got per second to decide if it worth to use Ward and get active 15% bonus instead of passive 6% to exclude casts on random 5k hits.

It should be multi dotting any time it's possible. Need logs if it's not working. Best place to see it happening is target dummies.

It's checking the target is casting, and has been casting for a minimum of 700ms before it allows counterspelling. It shouldn't be silencing randomly.

Btw if we could change hp setting for presence of mind polymorph healer it would be golden. That setting would be the best presence of mind setting if the user could change minimum hp.

Will change it

Nobody should be using Incanter's Ward in PvE. In PvP if you're being targeted by an enemy, 99% of the time you're going to be attacked.

dont mind payin!

I get some lag/stuttering when enabling aoe in battle grounds. Cokx combat routine handles it way smoother ^^.

Maybe I shall lower TPS? Mine is set on 45. Though it runs smooth without aoe enabled.

What anti-lag settings do you have set on the advanced tab?

45 is far too high. 15 is fine.

Hey mills any update on optimizing the fire rotation? I've read it's not very good with portal but would really love to play as fire!

 

[Lowdeath]

What settings i need to do exactly so DoT bomb all targets in the arena in any % of HP?
the settings question there is not clear, so i dont know how much % to chose.

 

[lve2raft]

Glimpse in what sense? It does have some PvE logic built in (i.e. for Thok etc).

No plans to stop development.




It can only be caused if you have a set of gloves in your bags ... ?

The way it works, is it finds you have a spell attached to an item (i.e. synapse springs has a 'use' ability which is a spell). It then tries to cast that spell using lua, however the lua call activates the first occurrence of that spell (which if you have gloves in your bags, will be those - rather than the ones you have equipped).

Double check you definitely don't have any gloves in your bags, and let me know if it's still failing.



Found something which could be causing this. Will sort it.



It's a combat routine, which basically handles casting the spells/abilities.

You need to download the routine using the zip file or (preferably) the SVN link. It should go under the 'Routines' folder.. <Honorbuddy>/Routines/Portal/

What about pets?

Sent PM about other version.



Mouseover RoF does click on the ground ?

Incanters ward -> define more responsive? Should be used near enough on cooldown.

Blazing Speed is a good idea.

There's a possible issue with multi dotting on the current version (see above). Will fix this tonight.

15 tps hard lock is fine.

Counterspell is automatic, it has a lot of randomization in it to prevent it reacting at bot-like speeds.

Millz - I am sorry to say - but 100% confirmed no other gloves in bag. I deleted the ones in bank too just in case. Anything else i should try? It doesnt happen all the time, but when it does, its of course in the middle of a boss fight or a burn phase or when I am close to ranking and rocking my warlock buddy and then he beats me and crows about it lol.

 

[phaedrus]

Millz,

Presence of mind when someone healing not working. If you see on log it used i did manuel.

Is there some reason portal free casts evocation when not in group and just standing around at bank?

appears to only do this when targeting someone, including self
