monsters telegraphing attacks

[Nepthys]

hey all

is there any way to tell when a mob is using a certain attack, or telegraphing they are about to?
This would be useful in boss fights, to make the bot run away and not have to facetank vaal smash / dominus lightning fist etc


Thanks!

There's:

Actor.HasCurrentAction - Returns true if this actor has a current action.

which if that's true you can then use:

Actor.CurrentAction - Returns the current action the actor is performing.

The ActionWrapper object returned will have various fields, such as Destination / Target / Skill. Check to make sure Target / Skill are not null before accessing their properties.

Monster skills don't all have "nice names" for what they are, so you'll be working with 'InternalName' and coding around those, which will be a bit of trial and error.

This gives me an idea of a CR addon, will release it tonight if everything goes as planned.
