To make it not happen when I type, I will have to change it to something wierd and un comfortable to hit. I find it hard to believe that there isn't a way to disable hotkeys while talking in chat, as I am an avid user of TuanHA and this issue does not present itself with any of his profiles. Also, if you couldn't check chat panes with honorbuddy. How does arelog log you out when a gm conversation is detected, or any of those types of functions that it uses. Just a suggestion, but if I have to use abnormal key binds in order to be able to actually converse with people in the game maybe this profile isn't for me.

Thank you,

Hey - Without wanting to sound abrupt - there's 120 different key combinations for toggling slow fall (which is only ever really used for air dropping into blacksmith from lumbermill in arathi basin). I'm sure there's a different key combo to shift+s that you can use if it's causing you issues.

TuanHA isn't online at the moment, but I'll ask him to see if he's doing anything special with detecting if the chat pane is open.

If I were overlooking the self-botting hiccups - the routine, as a rotation/reaction suite, eats face, takes names, and spits out "bad guys" (be they human or generated) like a nail gun on rapid fire. You have done a remarkable job with the actual rotation and mechanics of the class.

Moving on to the self-questing issues mentioned previously, and an additional point noticed today while creating this log.
Per request, please see the attached file.

Summoning Issue:
Additionally to the stutter effect, ping-pong object effect and self buffing (mentioned before), upon dismounting there are times it takes a moment for the pet, Frost Elemental, to "appear" and in this instant the toon re-summons it.

This isn't that large of an issue however, to an on-looker it can appear strange (more so if there is a lot of mounting/dismounting occurring either through quest or through issue). You will note the multiple, and many, re-summons of the pet in the log.

Thanks for the log.

Haven't been able to re-create the raid buffing issue, if you have a log of this can you post it please?

Stuttering/questing -> I've just tried running questing for ~10mins - and not seen any issues at all. Try disabling unnecessary plugins, and enabling framelock.

Summoning -> made a code change which should prevent this from happening.


[03/Jan/2014]
- [Frost] Water Elemental should no longer be re-summoned instantly after dismounting.

You'll need to provide more info. What's wrong?

Not sure, its kinda feels slow.

Looking at possibly getting the Paid Mage Combat Routine from you. I only PVE > What separates the free from the Paid version - Also, can you direct me in how to buy into your paid version if I decide its worth it? Thanks mate!

Seems to be casting pretty quick in the log file - like this..

[20:42:18.645 N] [Portal] [HP: 89.4] [Mana: 98.9] [BF: False] [FoF: 1] [Casting: Alter Time] [On: Lvl 90 Horde Mage @ 89.4%]
[20:42:18.663 N] [Portal] [HP: 89.4] [Mana: 98.9] [BF: False] [FoF: 1] [Casting: Deep Freeze] [On: Lvl 90 Horde Hunter @ 100.0%]
[20:42:18.864 N] [Portal] [HP: 89.4] [Mana: 98.9] [BF: False] [FoF: 0] [Casting: Living Bomb] [On: Lvl 90 Horde Hunter @ 100.0%]
[20:42:18.888 N] [Portal] [HP: 89.4] [Mana: 98.9] [BF: False] [FoF: 0] [Using Item: Tyrannical Gladiator's Badge of Dominance]

4 abilities used within 0.2 seconds - can't see anything out of the ordinary in there.

Sent you a PM.

Not at all, I understand completely. I'm not being a prick or anything man, I just found an issue that is effecting my gameplay and thought I'd bring it to your attention. I also understand slow fall is rare, but how rare is toggle burst and toggle cooldowns ? If you can't find a solution, I'll likely just change the modifier to alt and retrain the brain.

Thanks,

Ctrl is where it's at

Seems to be getting pauses and stopping mid fight, not sure what the issue is but I updated CC just an hour ago. here's the log thanks

 

[ez101]

Please check counter spell. Bot is casting it even though I have it unchecked. Specifically I am talking about Sha of Pride when ad comes out , but may be other times as well just now noticed it. Will come back to add a log when raid is done

Just a quick issue with Arcane Brilliance that doesn't really bother me as I have it disabled anyways. I noticed that the routine doesn't like Dalaran Brilliance for some reason and will constantly over ride it with Arcane Brilliance. Two other mages in my raid group use DB whereas I only have AB. Maybe put some code in that will not use Arcane Brilliance if Dalaran Brilliance is already active.

I had it active at one point in time and one of the other mages was spamming DB and it was driving the routine insane and constantly spamming AB to replace it. lol Other than that, No real issue with the routine as you already know that I love the shit out of it!

Only seems to be pausing from 'do not attack' auras - like this;

[Portal ~ Debug] Target has an active 'do not attack' aura: Defensive Stance

Please check counter spell. Bot is casting it even though I have it unchecked. Specifically I am talking about Sha of Pride when ad comes out , but may be other times as well just now noticed it. Will come back to add a log when raid is done

Looks like it's enabled in that log file;

[06:50:04.999 D] [Portal ~ Debug] + CounterspellTarget: True

It will force counterspell on some units in SoO - but i'll change it so that only activates when any CS setting is enabled.

It's checking for Dalaran Brilliance with Arcane Brilliance - but it was checking the wrong unit range (40 yards on AB instead of 30). This may be causing the problem - I'll push a fix.

 

[Millz]

[04/Jan/2014]
- Arcane Brilliance is now checking for units in a 30 yard range, instead of 40 yards. Dalaran Brilliance is checking a 40 yard range.
- Counterspell in SoO will only be used if any of the Counterspell settings are enabled - instead of always being enabled.

New to HonorBuddy, can someone help me get this working with Kick's? I load Portal CR and then load profile on Kick's, and my character will not fight when in combat. Thank you!

Hey - The free version of Portal only works with manually controlled bot bases (such as Tyrael, LazyRaider, or Raidbot). You need to initiate combat by casting the first spell, then the routine will take over.

is it possible to set living bomb only on max. 2 targets, when 3 targets avaiable in range?
DPS should be higher.. tooltip: "This spell is strongest when applied to 1 or 2 targets."

Hey Millz,

Only been using the premium version for one day, and nothing but good things to say about what it can do. However, I did notice one issue that may need to be addressed. You have the profile detect when a mob has a harmful aura which should preclude attacking - which it does admirably.

However, this causes some problems in some fights. Specifically, when I am farming Lost City of TolVir, the bot will not attack High Prophet Barim during phase 2, as after he comes back from being invulnerable, he has a retribution aura. We need to ignore this in order to kill him. (I am using my custom QB behavior to handle switching targets between the add and the boss when he goes invulnerable.) Everything is fine until he has retribution aura in the second half of the fight.

I guess what I'm asking is, how easy would it be to add a toggle to "ignore harmful auras when targeting"?

Thanks in advance!

PS. Don't think you need a log of this issue, but if you do let me know.

It's just the tooltip to help people decide which talent to pick. It's always best to apply to as many targets as possible, but it's basically helping people pick which spell is most appropriate for each encounter..

NT says "strongest applying to 3 or 4 targets"
LB says "strongest applying to 1 or 2 targets"
FB says "strongest when can hit 5+ targets"

Have you got the log file? I ask because Retribution Aura isn't on the do not attack list, so suspect there's another reason as to why it's not attacking it.

Wrong, But if you have logs to prove otherwise please link them.

for example klaxxi encounter ... multi dotting. Living Bomb has 40% of the overall damage done. On a Encounter who you should attack only one without mutlidotting. DPS can be higher okay... but thats not effective DPS.

On that encounter, you should be disabling AoE completely and just attacking the kill target - or at least, that's how I do it.
