Since they fixed the pen trick, I really haven't soloed too much besides rats. So I'm looking for ideas on what a new team could be!
Right now I'm running dual wammys that use Parox until they need mana. They each have a set of 3 weapons w/ hit area, mana leech, ssi, di or better. I run em both and the one follows the other and duplicates his moves/actions. So when one divines/consecrates/cursewpn, they both do. They each run their own script that also attacks spawn w/ either momentum strike or lightning strike depending on if there's more than one critter around.
It runs pretty well, but I can't just mindlessly run into a level4 dragon spawn and chop away lol.
So I'm wondering if there's a better idea for a team out there?
One guy I play with runs a SDI necro/mage accompanied by a sampire archer w/ healing. The archer just chain bandaids the mage while attacking anything it can find. Seems like a decent way to do things, and if they have 140dex like they should, you would be getting healed like crazy.
-
I haven't ever done one solo myself but if it is me and one other friend we like to do it with a couple of necro/mage/Tamers each with a GD.

I would probly say a pair of healing necro's one with peace/music. When the main gets low on health, have the secondary peace? Then he can heal up, what have you. Or have them be HEALING necros. haha Cross heal while wither spamming... :)

you could use globals to ensure that they are peacing opposite each other

1st Nec-Mage
2nd Bush-Nec-Archery

Yeah I've been thinking about that.
Maybe I'll try that out!

Disco Tamer + SW/Necro/Mage
Or a Peace/Necro/Mage

I went yesterday w/ a necro/tamer/mage & wammy. It was actually the easiest spawning I've ever done. Throw the dragon in & let it tank anything. Usually only takes a few momentum strikes to whipe everything out. I'm just thinking how to write a script to do it as easy as I can. I suppose I'd have to control the necro/tamer and have the wammy take commands. Maybe keep wammy on my character until I tell it to clean house. Then it would run to the dragon and monentum strike to clear things. That way the mage can stay out of range but still Gheal the dragon & wammy if things get bad.
I usually don't discord the champs anymore, as I don't have one so I wouldn't be running one of them.
-
Well let me suggest my pvm script with an autoattacker and Cerv's Gbot. :) WIth a little tweaking you could make the ultimate spawner with them both. I've done some amazing things with the Gbot with very little effort... It's a nice template to expand on. :)
-
Ya right now I have a pretty crazy script(s) for my wammys.
But I think I may try the archer w/ necro deal. Could easily write a script that would switch bows around to match the correct slayer and all. Heck, could even pick up some protection/killer talismans and throw that into the mix.
-
I've been looking for tali's too. I finally got a 50+ ratman shaman protection bloodwood spirit. I love it. :) I got a giant rat protection tali too.
-
Archer use crossbow after honor and eoo the boss can do 200+damage
Nec-Mage keep curse and cor-skin it, and bless archer is a must.
-
I prefer a magical shortbow on some bosses depending on the mods on it. Concussion blow does less damage than a normal hit for some reason in pvm. But when I use my mana/velocity/lightning magical I can spam lightning strike & the lightning strike special move like crazy & actually out damage my XBows. But it all depends on how I fight em (Wraith form, on mount etc).
Bless don't help my archer as he's 190 stamina (150dex) & 150str/hp. One less spell :P. Bugged pots make it so my stats never drop unless cursed or death.
I actually purchased most of my bows for this. Right now I'm running all magical shortbows for working the spawn which narrows me down to only using bulk arrows (Cheaper) except bolts on some bosses depending on my bow/mood). All my shortbows are 30+SSI, 40+DI & balanced w/ an appropriate slayer. I haven't done testing but I was told if you cast a mage spell to make your weapon leave your hand & then equip your next weapon thus fizzling the spell that you don't suffer the swing penalty of switching weapons like normally. I could incorporate that into a script incredibly easy and if it works it would make a hell of a difference switching between something like XBows. Right now I set up a test script that switches my bows around depending what I fight. You prebuild a "table" w/ your bows in it (It's actually a list). From there you add the ID's of the creatures that bow will slay.
I'm still debating on how to handle the talismans. I suppose each spawn type will have its own rules to cover em. It wouldn't be really profitable to keep changing talismans like crazy as it hinders swings by dragging items I believe. But I suppose I could code it to follow the rules & equip the correct protection/slaying talisman depending on the level of the spawn. That would really just require some time invested to figure out the best protectors (Dread Spider or Terathan Matriarchs... Which does more damage?). But then again it could really pay off in the long run, especially for the necro pulling ago.
Oh well. This will be a long project. I have 3 players in my guild who plan to try this setup to spawn with (Including myself). Hopefully soon I can start posting up how it goes.

I view pet player scripts as the ultimate extension of easyuo, but also as the end of the game as everyone knows it.
Players can beat peerless/do champs on their own with 1 account, but the devastation of being able to use 2-5 accounts all acting more tactical in pvm than most real players are capable of.... just.... scary...
-
Yea have you tried my pvm script? It's almost scary in my opinion. At least to my limited scripting ability. It works insanely well for me. :)
-
Heh, Long ways to go, but excellent for what it does.
-
Have you seen the version in my project thread? I'll have to see about getting you access if you want to test and give feedback. :)
-
if its for pvp intent, I decline.
-
Me and my mate do spwans with a necro/weaving/mage and disco/tamer .. works pretty well for us
-

Nope, it's for doing peerless pretty much, right now it's semi optimized for necro/bush/warrior. You CAN use it without necro, but it's designed around that template. I'm "planning" on making it work for everyone, but there's a lot of available options for any template, just not sure how they'll work without using curse weapon. :) You'd have to try it and give feedback. I just used it yesterday at Travesty and it worked like a charm. :) I'll see if TM or Cerv will add you. But I expect good feedback!
-
Sounds good, Maybe we can collaborate. I have...... "Some" experience at pet player scripts.......... Would be more than willing to get onto the team.

That's interesting you say that, because I'm working on a version of Gbot that uses my script to be a pet player with attitude. :) A 2 man team of dexers cross healing using my script and necro... unstoppable I'm sure. Especially if you can control them both from one client effectively. :) If you've used Gbot you know what I'm sayin... I added movement controls in the Gbot thread for controlling from the main client. But my version is WAY better. I'm considering scripting rails and such for peerless and trying to completely automate the key gathering and doing Travesty. Will be fun to try anyways. Travesty isn't hard at all.

Rofl, to be honest I'd rather not discuss all of this in an Open Forum for anyone. I'll PM you.

LOL nice read and it ends here !!

I don't get it, what's wrong with talking about scripting on a scripting website? :) haha
-
so far i've done every spawn with this setup, including Oaks. It's a huge PITA and I had to go out of my way to program some subs to make my bot teleport on ledges w/ me to work the spawn. If you don't go up there, it will take forever to get worked!
I've been debating on switching to a dexer based character bot rather than a archery based one, but then I'd be left hanging on Rikktor cause he's a major PITA meele undiscorded lol.
-
Why couldn't you just do some cross healing wither bombers? :)
-
Why not just make an all inclusive script that Works with any combination of templates so you can have 2 Dexxers crosshealing/Wailing on everything, a tamer for tanking tough spawn (Not really necessary), and some witherer/Peacer/Discord/Mager/Whatever the F*** You want.
-
Whatever works. :)

3 Bushido Chiv dexxers, Take any Spawn, Do Every champ But Rikktor. ( 1 Bushido archer Can Take him though)
