[Zekken] Avoid telegraphed attacks.

[newb23]

Does it not dodge in story quests, etc? Idk mine isn't dodging it stands in all the things. How do I post a log.hmmmm

It will dodge in story quests but ONLY if the spell it needs to dodge is already in the database.

If it isn't, it'll take a picture for you to add it.

Might just be me, but I used Zekken before and after awhile I really noticed it to behave like a bot, its less suspicious for my character to eat the AoE's and my chocobo heal me then for me to use the plugin and run around like a mad man trying to dodge AoE's that are 15 feet away and wouldn't hit me.

Yup, Zekken is outdated at this point. There's a ton of changes that it needs, things like moving with the mesh, a pathfinding algorithm instead of just vector addition, raycasting against obstacles, movement logic that has a bias towards the original position to avoid endless kiting, better spell shape data format, etc. Perhaps if one day all that work were to have its reward *wink* *wink*. This Zekken is still useful when grinding mobs in OrderBot that aren't clustered together. But for Fates, better not use it anymore.

He's talking about the STORE! HA!

*cries and runs back to RetBot's code, whimpering softly, only just recently fully realizing how much friggen work it is to develop even a simple plugin*

That being said, I still like to use Zekken even if only because, while looking bottish sometimes, I'd rather that than to eat ERETANG, and waste my time and resources to get back to where I need to be. Farming seals for Ventures. For my own plugin. FULL CIRCLE. BOOM. Obligatory thank you Neverdyne. Again.

Hi! I'm new using Zekken, I've read main post and i hope I did all correctly. I see plugin on my BR, and options are all marked. but does not evade anything plus sometimes takes screenshots. I'm new with RB and i don't know to correct it any tip? thanks!

To keep it short and reply quick

Zekken is currently outdated - Might take a while until Neverdyne updates it. - I recomment NOT using it, since it is moving pretty obvious 'like a bot'. If Zekken avoids spells its walking way to far from the AOE area.

 

[Mirko1987]

Ahhh that's why it "sucks"... it's a shame due to it seemed a really good plugin...

 

[Neverdyne]

Yeah, it's still fine for some grinding situations where you're mostly 1v1 with a mob. But otherwise, due to the blind moving, it'll get you stuck and endlessly kite if too many spells are around you.

it should match and you don't need to replace

Shape Database

Quick Explanation Video

If you're grinding a spot and one of the mobs does a nasty telegraphed spell, to make Zekken avoid it in the future you have to add it to the shape database. To do that, do the following:

1. Go to /Rebornbuddy/Plugins/Zekken/Spell Screenshots/ and take a look at the screenshot of the spell you want to add. Notice the number in the screenshot's name, that's the spell's ID.
2. Go to /Rebornbuddy/Plugins/Zekken/Spell Shapes/ and open the XDatabase.xml file.
3. There are a few spell shape entries on the database already, copy paste one of the "XSpellShape" elements and change the ID property to the new spell's ID.
4. Modify the "Flags" properties of your new entry. These flags describe the shape of the telegraph. Be accurate, don't leave "Circle" and "Rectangle" on the same spell.
5. Save the XDatabase.xml file and close it.
6. On the Rebornbuddy application, go to Plugins and select Zekken. Click the "Compile" button, located where plugin settings usually are.

That's it! Now Zekken will avoid the new spell.

Can Zekken worth with Ultima? With Kupo and Zekken, the cross-class abilities don't get used, but Ultima lets you specify.
