EQoffline, bots and more..

[Aramid]

I have been playing the following Bots with no trouble even with 2 different people in the same zone using bots:
Cleric, Enchanter, Warrior, Shaman and Wizard

I just figured out today how to get the Enchanter to use MEZ.

First off, lets talk about what you have to do with the spells. I have started to make new ones for my toons, but you can adjust the existing ones in the database.

All spells have a minimum and Maximum spell level. You can only have 16 spells on a bot at any given time. The spells are determined by the Bots Level and Maximum Level settings in the spell database.

I use level 65 bots, so that's what I will use as examples.

All the Level 65 Spells of course have a minimum level of 65 and of course will load onto a level 65 bot. You may have to use the #AI SPELLSLIST # to get them using the correct list. Now, what I did was set the chanter to have all the good buff spells and of course, all the level 65 spells and 65 Mez. On any root spell, I made sure that the Minimum & Maximum level were below 65. 64 will work. This way no root spell would load on the 65 Bot. The spells that I wanted it to load that were below level 65, you just have to raise the maximum level to your Bots level or higher. It will load the 16 spells with the highest maximum in reverse order... I think but not really tested that part as I just have it so 16 spells will load based on the Bots level.

So, again, for an Enchanter to mez, there cannot be a root spell in there list of 16 spells (at least this is how I got mez to work instead of root) Make sure your mez spell in the database is set to a ROOT type. As long as there are no root spells in the bots 16 spell list, then mez will work. The spells load into the 16 slots based on priority. The higher the priority the closer to the top it goes. Not sure if this has any advantage or not.... but that's how that works.

BTW. I think you also have to restart your EMU Server after making the changes to your Spells in order for them to take effect. If you don't, please let me know how.

So what I have done, is to make my Wizard not do any buffs but have all the high nukes, the enchanter to have the highest mez and mana regen buffs, the Cleric to have the Highest HP buffs and AC buffs and no nukes and the shaman to have the best slow and PC Bots, all Group Spells on the buffs as well and so far it's working great.
