Best Rogue Secondary for Bot

#1 Post by FelixTheCatetris » Mon Oct 12, 2009 7:16 pm

I am planning on waiting for the druid/warden elite skills, but that may take some....so I have been considering a Priest secondary (obviously for the heals, the invulnerability shield, and the Wound Tear elite) however I also am considering a Rogue/Mage. My problem in deciding is this;

1) Can I effectively use stealths and backstabs with the bot? I am assuming not.
2) How do traps work for the Rogue/Mage? Can I only have one (between all three types) out at a time? Will they work well with a bot? Again I am assuming not.

ATM I think it would just be wise to go with Priest for the heals, but I just wanted to hear comments form other who may have tried one of these secondaries, or possibly found a better one. Thanks for the help.

Stealth and backstabs do not work well with the bot, no. However you can have it cast hide after every fight. I believe you can lay one of each trap at a time, but it again doesn't work well with botting. The point of the traps is to lay them, then pull the enemy into them. You could probably get it to work, but probably not well. They are more trouble than they are worth, anyways. I think traps would be better for instances or PVP than grinding.

having the bot cast stealth is buggy, if youre poisoned or the bot uses a potion just after combat, it wont rehide

i made addons to handle that, it works quite well
check what i posted here http://www.solarstrike.net/phpBB3/viewt ... f=21&t=710

using backstab probably wont work though, as theres no checks/cooldowns to tell u its usable

you could try this:

Code: Select all

/cast Blind Spot
/wait .1
/cast Shadowstab
make a macro with this, place it in your shadowstab spot,
so when the bot uses shadowstab it will try to cast blindspot first, then use shadowstab if blindspot doesnt get used

if your shadowstab has high priority he will use this first in combat
