I may have found something with the ac/avoidance, its seems there is no check for the avoidance cap in GenerateArmorClass - this could lead to bots having unlimited avoidance? could be the reason they become nearly un-hittable when fully geared/augd

Im going to try adding a line that checks for the avoidance limit, and sets it to the limit if exceeded.

Well the avoidance idea didn't do anything.

I did find the problem with ac though, its the mitigation calc - its very generous for bots and gives about double the ac they should have.

I toyed around with this for awhile till the calculation seemed accurate.

I changed a line in GenerateArmorClass:(around line 1220)
was:
Code:
displayed += ((avoidance+mitigation)*1000)/847;
Changed to:
Code:
displayed += ((avoidance+mitigation)*500)/950;
now ac is way more accurate on bots, around the same as players.

did you check to see if there's a shielding cap enabled for bots?

the way emu shielding works it can be way OP with high caps.

GenerateArmorClass matches the client calculation for CalcAC. I just updated the MeleeMitigation for Bots to match the mob version, which utilizes soft caps. Let me know if this addresses this issue. I tend to stick to realistic values for my equipment, so I'm not sure how this would affect bots who have AC > 6-10k.. (I run in the 2-2.5k range for my tank)
