[N] Vortex Pinnacle Mount Farm, Rogue Edition v0.1

​

All credit for the initial profile goes to Shifty. I just modified his, and am seeking no credit. Check out the original one here: http://www.thebuddyforum.com/honorbuddy-forum/honorbuddy-profiles/farming/107712-n-vortex-pinnacle-mount-farm.html

Shifty's profile was nice, but considering I have a level 90 rogue with Stealth and Blizzard just increased the number of times you can run a dungeon every hour, I felt it was time to make a slight variation of it.

This profile is intended for level capped Rogues only. It might work for Druids with Prowl, but was not written for it. All other classes will fail miserably at this due to the mechanics of the profile; you should just use Shifty's original profile instead.
Your combat routine must keep you Stealthed when out of combat for this to work.
Set Honorbuddy to run in Questing mode.
Must be right outside of instance when starting. Will not work if started inside.

Here are the differences:

1. Skips all mobs except first and second bosses, whenever possible. (Some random mob paths may, very occasionally, aggro out of sheer bad luck)
2. Waits a moment after the first slipstream to allow for re-Stealthing.
3. Waits a moment after the second Gale thingie and clears the target to prevent pointlessly engaging it in combat.
4. Waits for thirty seconds before the reset instead of five minutes, since Blizzard has changed the hourly instance limit.

I erred on the side of conservative pathways, but at level 90, it could probably afford to be a lot more reckless. I'm not a profile maker, just an Honorbuddy user. Feel free to leave feedback of course.

I have uploaded this profile as-is. I am not affiliated with shifty. I make no guarantees that it will work, or that I will update it in the future.

 

Thank you so much! testing it out right now.

EDIT (after 3 runs):
It's working great and fast, ty again

EDIT (after 10 runs)
Got the mount!!

 

Tried it out. Works great getting to the boss and all. My only issue is it doesn't seem to be looting the boss. =P

 

Doesnt loot boss .... :/

 

I added in a wait timer after killing Altairus and it seems to have fixed the loot issue.

 

ne fonctionne absolument pas...

 

Sorry I am not amazing at french, but I used a translator and it seems you are having issues with it. I found that it works best if you start it right outside the instance, and make sure you use quest bot. Also, I used singular with the routine setting "always stealth" set to "true" so that it would stealth any time it was out of combat. I did have to restart it a few times, and it definitely isn't flawless, but it seemed to get the job done. I got my mount after around 15 kills.

 

ok thank you my friend I'll test it will give new

 

View attachment [Quest] Vortex Pinnacle Mount Farm v0.1 (Rogue Edition) -riebrieb.xml Thanks for this version. I encountered some issues though that I tried to fix in the attached version.

I hope you enjoy it, it runs flawlessly on my HB.


V0.2
- fixed an issue where you attack the howling nps instead of just using a ranged attack
- fixed an issue where you can't enter instance cause of wrong coordinates
please note, that this version only works on rogues. message me if you need one for druids.

 

he doesn't use prowl for druid, maybe some advice i can use this profile but to make him do this ?

 

dont loot boss

 

Did someone was able to use this properly with Druids?

 

Doesnt work for me, just stands in stealth, any tips?
tried the updated profile and it just runs outside the platform in the same place and just keeps doing that

 

Works for me, but sometime he stucks at Howling Gale and kills them both which needs a lot of time for me. Also he sometime pulls aggro as you said, but he just waits 30 seconds and doesnt attack the pulled mobs.

Would be nice if someone could fix this

 

IN the OP version my toon runs between the mobs shows in the screenshot and walks straight off the edge from dungeon start.
In Riebrieb's version it starts with hotspots but walks off at the very same position.

Does anyone know why? It seems it does move to the boss location, but doesnt follow the dungeon mapping. Just tried to get there in a straight line.






EDIT: it works now. Don't ask me how i got it to work though... I am quite clueless...

 

This profile is almost perfect.

Once it exits after farming then tries to re-enter it goes about two feet too far to the right and gets stuck on the edge of the instance entrance.

It also doesn't loot the boss until after the timeout period that starts once it kills the boss, I think we may have to use ArkAutoLootBoP for this now too as other people are having issues with mount farming profiles and looting a mount.

I should be able to fix this

Edit - I fixed it, it should enter now without issues

Edit 2 - I am getting some WoW crashes, but I wouldn't necessarily attribute it to this profile.

Edit 3 - Enabing 'Framelock' may help with the crashes, it helped me with BG crashes.

Edit 4 - Enabling Framelock solved all my WoW crashing issues

 

Works like a charm thanks for the fix thatonedude

 

No problem, the real work was done by others, I just altered a single coordinate

I'm just glad we have a working VP mount farming profile post 6.0.4, even if it is Rogue only.

Now all we need is a working Stonecore one.

 

time to dust off my rogue for some farmin

after 15+ runs I can say that it works fine with 6.0.4
the only issue is the Howling Gales, the bot is not using ranged attacks on them but runs in and tries with melee, which is not a problem it just takes a little bit more time because of the knock backs

 

Started having lots of issues with this profile today to the point I had to actually watch the bot even after a clean install and following the cache clearing procedures.

We should just use the profile in this pack that works perfectly for all/most classes

And I will confirm that enabling Framelock solved every single occurrence of WoW crashing when entering an instance.
