Origin 1st boss farm (Life Leecher)

[doekje]

Heya all,

I was working on a way to farm the first boss in Origin.

Made it this far:

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><waypoints>
	<!-- In front of origin -->
	<!-- #  1 --><waypoint x="-11770" z="8627" y="118">	
		while not RoMScript("UnitExists('party1')") do
		sendMacro('InviteByName("ALTNAME")');
		yrest(4000)
		end
	</waypoint>
	<!-- #  2 --><waypoint x="-11815" z="8606" y="118"> 
	keyboardPress(key.VK_W);

	keyboardPress(key.VK_W) 
	keyboardPress(key.VK_W) 
	keyboardPress(key.VK_W)
	waitForLoadingScreen(); 
	</waypoint>
	<!-- #  3 --><waypoint x="887" z="977" y="277">		</waypoint>

	bug = player:findNearestNameOrId("Dark Blood Bug")
	if bug then
    player:target(bug);
	player:cast ("SCOUT_SHOT");
    player:update();
	end
	</waypoint>
	<!-- Back to entrance -->

</waypoints>

After some editing I'm getting this compile error:

haltOnError: false
0:31am - .../bot/micromacro/scripts/rom/classes/waypointlist.lua:22: XML Parse Error.

Also I am looking to improve my origin script, so if you've got any tips, feel free..

Thanks a lot

You have 2 </waypoints> for number #19. It should be,

Code: Select all

   <!-- # 19 --><waypoint x="1661" z="3283" y="219"> 
   bug = player:findNearestNameOrId("Dark Blood Bug")
   if bug then
    player:target(bug);
   player:cast ("SCOUT_SHOT");
    player:update();
   end
   </waypoint>

[doekje]

ah thanks a lot, will check if it works in the afternoon.

[doekje]

Okay, just tested it out, and it now works again.
Just 1 function which doesn't work and thats the part below:

Code: Select all

bug = player:findNearestNameOrId("Dark Blood Bug")
   if bug then
    player:target(bug);
   player:cast ("SCOUT_SHOT");
    player:update();
   end

If someone has time and knowledge of what could be wrong/changed or updated, then please advice

[rock5]

player:findNearestNameOrId has no distance checks so maybe the mob is out of range. Make sure you are in range first.

[kanta]

I have the following code in my <onPreSkillCast> section and it works really well:

Code: Select all

	bug = player:findNearestNameOrId("Dark Blood Bug")
if bug then
    player:target(bug)
    player:update()
    player:fight();
end

[doekje]

wow, thanks man, will try this a.s.a.p.

Hi

You have an example for Distance Check between the Char and the Boss ??

Something like

Code: Select all

   bug = player:findNearestNameOrId("Dark Blood Bug")
      if bug and range > distance(player.X, player.Z, bug.X, bug.Z) then

Where 'range' is the range of your attack skill.

Thank you i think this is very helpful for me

Somebody got a ready script for this? Maybe the poster can upload his/her script? How many mems are there to be farmed each hour/night?

[nerdyone255]

yea very interested in this one.

i see the party invite function, but does it refresh a new instance once it kills the boss and leaves?

[Marlb0ro]

The WP in the first post should be enough if your character can solo this boss.

When working with more then 1, it does require some more thought.
I for example use Regeneration with a S/P to trigger leaveparty and also to start bossbattle. That way the 1st one outside wont leave party too early and get me kicked out of instance. And good thing is that most of the damage done by boss is healed before we face him again.

I'm sure there's many with their own ways to make this work. It depends on your classes as well. My way of doing this is designed for my own characters. It may not work for you, or anyone else basically.

Tried the waypoint yesterday, it will do 3 mems every 3 minutes. Thats doing it solo, had to change waypoints because it wouldnt walk out. And leaveparty/invite didnt work with me.

Nice script, but i think GC easy is the fastest mems possible atm, as i get 330 mems/hour solo. not by bot but by hand . Dont think i will make that waypoint anytime soon specially cuz of the catching of bunnies lol

[sdude13]

I tried this one, one waypoint is not nice bcause you walk over a hole where
then some enemies spawn. Thats' no real problem.
II ran the script with one char only, no party. When it leaves the instance and
then reenters for next run, the Boss ist not there anymore, it seems it does not
reset, any clue why ?

[Marlb0ro]

Because an instance will only reset after waiting a certain amount of time, OR making a (new) party.

[sdude13]

thx for that info.

Anyone know what level you have to be to gain mementos ?
I could attach some characters if i anyways have to form a party

[Marlb0ro]

I would go pretty 'high' level with them for sure.
When I'm going in with partymembers (level 60 plus nowadays) I have noticed 2 things that might get one frustrated:

1. Sometimes the partymembers aggro (or get aggro) from the boss before your main DPS.
2. Life Leecher cast a magic attack after a few seconds, usually not targetting your main DPS, but his pet, or a partymember. Depending on their gear it's about 5.000-10.000 hit. Pet dies 100%

The walk/run back to Origin is horrible.

[sdude13]

As i have high level mage, and a priest both well equiped i tought it would
be nice to farm this first boss.

I used the Partyheal but sadly the char does not follow in and out of the
instance (for resetting it)... any tricks here ?

To make it faster i will add "swimhack"-waypoints, i'll share it when all is done

[kanta]

The walk/run back to Origin is horrible.

Don't break party in the instance. Once LL is dead, get your character(s) to walk back out of the instance and break party after exiting. Then just reform and walk back into the instance.
