[Plugin] Giles Trinity

v1.4.8 uploaded:
- (experimental) Pause button added to the main DB window, next to the Start/Stop button. While running DB, just click pause - you can now play manually/visit town etc. - click again to unpause.
WARNING: Make sure you go back to where you paused it, before unpausing!
DOUBLE WARNING: Unstucker plugins may try to "unstuck" you if you are stood around while it is "Paused", as DB is still technically running (could just try disable the unstucker while pausing)
- Changed the variables that record how many monsters are within XX range of you to account for monster-size (so Azmodan should trigger more abilities etc.).
- Reduced specific priority increases for shaman/hands of pestilence/cydaea, now that priority in general works better.
- Some improvements to barricade handling.
- Health wells have slightly more weight when you are injured.
- Some minor changes to item scores (particularly amulets being valued too highly for having a socket).
- Some minor changes to a few skills.
- Witch Doctor spirit-walk now only used out of combat if "out of combat movement buffs" is ticked in combat options.
- WD missing "Hex" skill now added.
- The "Wizard Critical Mass" checkbox in combat config now also affects witch-doctors, and is used for WD's that use Grave Injustice.
- More work by Moley on Witch-Doctors and Wizards skills - Witch-Doctors using the "Grave Injustice/Critical Mass" checkbox should find their WD's capable of spamming spells effectively in combat.


IMPORTANT: Updating Plugin Versions:
To minimize or fix problems (random slowdowns, oddities with avoidance settings ignoring certain avoidance types), you should do the following things every time you update Giles Trinity or if you get any problems after updating;
1: Make sure DemonBuddy is closed
2: Go into the DemonBuddy folder, and DELETE the entire "CompiledAssemblies" folder from within the DB folder (this is completely fine and safe to do - DemonBuddy will rebuild this folder!).
3: Go into the /settings/ folder within DemonBuddy - in this folder, delete "GilesTrinity.cfg".
4: Load DB and configure the plugin again
Following these quick, simple instructions will fix a lot of random issues that can crop up between upgrades. The reason for these requirements is largely down to the size and complexity of Giles Trinity.

 

thanks for this nice plugin Giles. It is definatly a must have for every CM wizard out there.

Here are some ideas / suggestions for further improvements:
- the avoidance is a bit choppy, looks a bit like a stepdancer, not very natural - also sometimes it is running back and forth for a short time it seems
- sometimes when there are alot of monsters around it just stands there doing nothing, I will try with debug output to see what it is doing in those moments.
- small scoring adjustments maybe, 815 dps dagger / 141 str / 62 critdmg / open socket - gave me only 67629 points

keep up the good work, it's already close to perfection

*edit: oh nice another update, *updating*

 

Giles you have to let me install before updating

 

man I'm not the type to donate (jew) but damn you've put in so much work there is no way I can continue to freeload off ya. Cheers mate.

 

That's the spirit, thank you! You guys have to keep me in good supply of coffee & noodles or I won't be able to keep this up!

 

ya know i'm right there with ya.. Thanks Giles for all your work on this, wouldn't be worth it without ya! Donation incoming!

 

my farming accounts got banned so i have to lvl up my new toons.. BUT after my first cash out again it will rain money on you giles!

 

Giles, could u develop a support teleport/calamity for wiz? Think can have a nice develop on this.
Atm he don't use for combat... and its better then explosive blast / chain for skills (since can be used either for avoidance or dmg/speed run both have same dmg)...

My build atm for wiz have those small glitches/bugs.
Spectral Blade/Deep Cuts (on 1.4.7 he tends to not attack and stand there waiting for twister (mostly times hes at 3 charges) gonna check on .8)
Dunno if can be implemented but a check for using a normal attack each 3 twister would help greatly on the dps.
Energy Twister/Storm Chaser(He usually uses it even when its only 1 monster around, mostly any skills is more efficient at that time, even normal attack)..

Also tried a archon build, but he was using the archon skill even when walking(no monster around).

My barb still has some problems with avoidance... I don't use a "chicken" build(that's to say)... he's more like a juggernaut (60% block 70khp 60kdps 75% dmg rec/resis 10% dmg redc from melee/ranged/elite 5% life steal)... I pretty much set all avoidance making it nearly 0 deaths hours.
He can stand under 2 elites at act3 w/o much problems, but when the avoidance starts calling at low life (mostly against fire walkers)... instead of trying something like "kamikaze" that always let him alive, he keeps doing loop on fire out fire, that either doesn't let him heal enough hp for going back and making hes a nasty target for others ranges...
Dunno but was wondering, if its possible to make like a "chicken" or "kamikaze" run option? Making the elite black target for 30s or so when hp 20% below so he could just run to next spots and grab some hp of monster around and the other would ignore the avoidance if hp below 20-30% for 10~20seconds +.

 

It seems the barricade problem still occurs here (fresh install with the new DB and latest trinity).
Setting the destructible object range to 0 seems to fix it, dunno about the downsides of this setting.

 

Just wanted to say thank you for the new update, I've gone up about 30k gph and from 4-5 dph to 1-2 Awesome job!

 

I would like to thank you as well - running flawless for me with 0 DPH now. I guess its time to venture into Act 2 or 3 now.

 

Not sure what you changed the latest version but I went down from 4 dph to 0-1 dph! Amazing, gonna donate you $ for some coffee and noodles on my next paycheck

 

I have been getting stuck a lot lately... Here is my stuck log. If I need to post this somewhere else (profile thread) let me know. I have been using this same profile for a long time and nothing has gone wrong until today. I am using the latest version of your plugin.

Hey Giles,

Killspeed/runtime between 1.4.7 to 1.4.8 is amazing huge huge improvement for Critical Mass Wizards until 1.4.7 it took me 50-60 minutes to clear all static content in act3 with 1.4.8 its down to 30 minutes that is a huge improvement. itemlevel 63 rares per hour are up from ~10ish to ~19ish. Whatever you did with ranges on spells and stuff its working now he's cutting though shit at an amazing rate because he's not just using 'Energy Twister - Storm Chaser' only all the time Awesome job I guess I've to send you another donation.

 

Giles, I noticed a couple of things with this new build.

1. Doesn't hit weapon racks.
2. It tries to run through large groups to kill Shaman rather then killing to them.
3. It prioritizes looting over combat while still in combat.
4. It Prioritizes Treasure Goblins while in combat with champion groups.
5. Bot sometimes stops while doing town run. This always happens right after selling to vendor on its way to the Blacksmith to salvage. It DOES NOT happen if I only sell.

Other then what I mentioned it works AWESOME!
LOVE THE PAUSE FEATURE!

As always really appreciate your work.

BTW, This is while playing a monk. Not sure if it makes a difference.

 

Is it possible to blacklist the dodge mechanics for those dark zones during azmodan encounter? I want just to stand there and heal with life on hit while dpsing instead of running away an dying (because no dps = no heal and dmg from dark zones ticks anyway).

 

set azmodan pools/bodies to 0 in the plugin settings (same tab that has other avoidance settings)

 

what do you mean by typing "LOVE THE PAUSE FEATURE!" ?:>

 

i wish giles made a relogger

 

^I second that!
