First of all, sorry for my bad english
Sure, its possible to write a good Arena Bot... but it would never be worth the time... you've got to think about serveral things:
1.) First you need to discover what kind of opponent you're fighting on (Healer? DPS? - means... parsing the whole combat log)
2.) The Bot needs to classify the gear they are wearing (This is one of the hardest parts.... you need to calculate your damage before... see how much damage you're doing on the player; classify if he's wearing full gladi or just using pve equip)
3.) He needs to have several tactics against several classes, serveral specs and several arenas... (tons of code)
4.) Know your enemy before he knows you..
5.) Figure out what kind of tactic they are using against you? Do they what for your cs? Do they just gunna rush down your healer? Do they just cs your healer?
6.) Handling against their tactic
7.) Skill... the bot needs to have skill; You need the perfect CC for handly against ALL possible tactics... (also tons of code)
8.) Write this code for ALL!!! possible combinations of classes (e.g. botting pala/druid; botting rouge/druid and so on...)
9.) Save all gathered informations to handle 1-4 faster than a human player
10.) Share these informations with the other running bots in realtime...
* Part 1-3 the human will decide within half a second... a bot needs to go in fight to figure this out;
* Part 4-6 You'll need just a few seconds in combat
* Part 7 Not all human players have skill... but every human player can become skilled while fighting battlegrounds and playing arena (could take some time ;O)
* Part 9 These part is the only one, which should be better than a human; But for this... you can write yourself an addon ;O
Im currently trying to write a Plugin to handle these points ONLY for Battlegrounds... and only for paladin... becouse every class; every battleground... these would take maybe some months or years ;D
Yes, I know what I'm talking about becouse I was already gladiator at the time of wotlk![]()
will you share this plugin when finished? I'd be perfectly happy with a badass pally BG bot
