I haven't been doing any raid level bot testing lately on my lan server, but I know that the casting AI for higher level bots is fubar at the moment. My druid stops healing once I ding 34 and #bot update, I stopped using cleric altogether, and bards do have song issues. Most of this has been noted in several threads over the last month or two. I 'think' Wildcard has chosen the AI as his next code project so we just have to be patient for a bit on these. I updated from Rev948 and am currently running Rev1038 windows (not Linux) source and db using the binaries Cavedude made on the 24th. I also made sure to source all the sql files for every rev between the 2 versions from the Updates folder.
From my limited testing this week I can group with 1 or 2 bots, fight until I want to move to another zone, then zone (around 10 different zones on purpose) with the same bots, and they have no problem following me or assisting me except for the ongoing healing issues. Healing is such an issue for me atm that I backed off playing bots until we all get a chance to test some of the AI changes once they start getting released.
