Bot Spell Behavior Druid, Shaman, Cleric, Mage

Kaain,

I didnt happen to be watching the pets HP's. But it could be simply that, a CH is only registered at say 15% of total HP. I remember Angelox did quite a bit of work putting logic together to CH was more reliable. He had done coding work so if HP's were dropping at such a rate that a CH would fire.

But I'm pretty sure the issue is more convoluted as the Cleric casts nothing but the 180/tick HOT.

Yep your right. Logged on lower level toons with me, 2 lan buddies, clericbot and shamanbot. Went to Acrylia Caverns where mobs are about 5 - 7 levels over us right now. Cleric consistently failed to do any normal heals other than hot, without shamanbot we would have been dying constantly. I was even sitting regening health after one nasty pull at around 10% health with both cleric and shaman in direct line of sight, never got after fight heals from EITHER one. I stood up and moved twice to make sure there were no los issues. I sat waiting just to see if either one would eventually heal me but got to full health just from natural regen, don't know what that was about but it only happened once. I'm updated to cavedudes Rev946-Bots and latest svn db.

I don't have time to look into this issue right now as I'm getting my house ready for an appraisal to refinance it and what time i have to code I am committing to overhauling the entity system so I can integrate bots into systems like adventures, raids, guilds, etc. However, I wonder if one of you has the time and ability to see what healing spells are available to the cleric bot at its level this happens at. Look at its spell list and make sure the healing spell you'd expect to be casted is available.

Spell lists have to be hand tuned for priority casting and things like that.

They have been tuned more at 60+ for raid encounters, I believe, and if you're finding error in spell behaviour at levels like 30-50, it's probably because they've been quickly tuned.

Hi

I just looked at the listing, there seem to be a priority level from 1 - 10.

I just changed the priority of celestial healing from 1 to 2 and complete heal from 2 to 1.

Hi, a couple more notes.

My toon is now level 60. I've tested a few more encounters Im getting similar results so not sure what the tuning thing is.

The cleric still will not actively heal me. At 60 he's stopped using celestial healing. Now as my bot I want his attention, while I do know some clerics out there that do not heal paladins when warriors are around (hahah)

I did a full database restore so my priorities have reset and probably spell lists too. I'll look deeper into that.

I am able to duplicate this. The Cleric will occasionally cast HOT's but no CH's and he only heals when he feels like it. I changed the spell priority, that did not seem to help. Testing was done on level 65 Bots.
