      So far, I have the following issues with HB. I am using the Amplify CC for mages, and am running a fire-mage. I am not sure if this has just never been tested before (which blows my mind) or if there is just some tweaking that I have not been able to figure out. I am running Kick's Questing profiles, and I believe most people run those without problems.

      1) Questing doesn't work good.

      Most quests work fine, but any one requiring me to click something along the right margin in order to advance the quest does not work. Sometimes I'll get stuck in an area doing nothing for hours on end and I do not know where to find a "Logout after X time" function. There are also a great deal of other quests which do not work as intended, and result in the bot tweaking out and going bonkers for endless loops.

      2) Moving to quests doesn't work good.

      On my way to quests and hotspots, I get 2 choices:
      a) Run through every npc I see, not avoiding, targeting, doing anything... just run through them and tank them- which wouldn't be the end of the world if the bot lost the aggro before farming the hotspot (but usually results in at least 1 death per hotspot rotation)
      b) Kill as I travel, which results in quest times being lengthened by a ridic amount of time. The bot targets every single npc it can find, and does not accept the range indicated in the settings. I either set it to a range of 50, which allows me to target the npcs in the 40 yard range, or I set it to 40- causing me to often aggro npcs before I can pull them.

      As well, sometimes the clicktomove function causes me to move past my target, then go backwards for no reason, then go back to the original target... and loops on forever. This is bad and makes you look like a botter.

      3) Killing doesn't work good. (this might not be HB feedback, but CC feedback for Amplify)

      If it's one target, that's fine. Somehow the scorch spell is being fired instead of the fireball spell, which is what I have selected as the spell I would prefer to use as a firemage... in fact, I can't even find the scorch option in the CC, so this baffles me as to how it even works. There is obviously an error in setup, or in the code here.

      4) Training skills is shoddy.

      Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. You really just roll the dice and hope after 4 levels it goes to the trainer. Sometimes you're lucky, sometimes you're not. In earlier levels it was 12 levels before it went to a trainer... which is very bad. I just manually went to a trainer.

      5) Eating/regen needs more options.

      I have evocation, but if I select to use it... I'll start using it in a fight, which is bad because then I either die or I waste much of the health evocation I had before. There is no customization here.

      6) No inns?

      Dunno why there is no hearth option anywhere, hearthing should be a vital part of botting... because you can insta-teleport to places.

      7) FIGHTING IS BAD!!!!

      This is another fighting related beef, but different than before. The actual fighting the bot does is extremely bad. So one thing it does is try to pull an NPC with frostbolt, take 2 steps, try again, take 2 steps, try again... repeat repeat repeat until the NPC aggros me. This is bad. May as well set the pull range to 0 and not look like a bot. I can opt to "not move" which will result in the NPC sitting behind me and me spamming skills all the while seeing "The NPC needs to be infront of you." or something. Bottom line here is, very flawed and buggy. This might be CC related, again, because it seems like HBs only job is to run you from X to Y- but if this is all we have as mages... then you may as well not even roll one.

      ====================================================

      I know at least 2 of these is directly related to HB, and the rest are either CC related explicitly or are related in the interaction of a CC and HB... and need to be fixed. Thus I've dumped this all under the "HB" tag.

      questing works fine - sometimes various quests have various issues... you need to give a thorough bug report in the appropriate thread for each bug individually
      moving to quests works fine. adjust your pulldistance
      killing works fine (at least with singular)
      training skills works fine - i have disabled train skills 1-40, after epl, after winterspring. and then will train at the end of BC, end of LK, and disabled in Cata. this is on purpose - as most of your spells you get 1-50
      evocation is a CC issue
      i don't hearth on purpose - if you would like to add hearth... then use azenius profiles ... or you can code your own profiles (it only takes about 100 hours per continent (200 hours for 1-60) to code a profile, per faction + vehicles @ 2-8 hours per vehicle)
      fighting generally works fine - this is CC related

      If you're using my profiles - thoroughly read the profile thread before

      I didn't even know hearthing on purpose was an option, heh. Pulldistance adjustment do not work. Moving to quest works fine from a profile side of things, but not from a HB side of things for the previously mentioned reasons. I can tell you're upset that some guy who joined 6 months after you came back and just started saying all of the issues he was having. I assure you, they are issues I'm having and this is not a user-blunder. Quite possibly user-error, but not a blunder. I already helped Tony change something in Talented and caught a mistake he made... so I'm not brainless. I'm telling you the problems that I'm having now. It is frustrating for me, as well, to have someone tell me things are fine when they are not.

      Simply, shit's broken and doesn't work good. Is it my fault? Maybe. If you don't want to help me, or you have nothing to add... then please participate in both of those activities (doing nothing or not helping me) and don't try to stir the pot.

      I'm an old time glider-vet and quit playing WoW to finish university... I've now graduated. I'm not your run-of-the-mill whiny noob.

      if you mean it's stuck at 20-25 ... then you can adjust your distance in the profile

      open all profiles
      replace all in all opened documents:
      PullDistance="20"
      to
      PullDistance="##"

      and PullDistance="25"
      to
      PullDistance="##"

      If pulldistance (in settings) is still not working, then it's prob a cc issue - report it to your CC thread

      See, that helps me because that's probably what the problem is. I was adjusting pull distance in HB settings. This might fix everything.

      well settings works - but I force it set at 20/25 on purpose because people leave it at 100 or at 1 and then complain, as many common complaint issues were fixed by me putting in a forced setting (flight paths, pulldistance, killbetweenhotspots, etc)

      you can also just replace PullDistance 20 / 25 with nothing (replace all PullDistance="25" with a blank replacement) and then set it in the settings and it should work... but then you may have issues with various quests and agro... or stuck in combat. I wouldn't know the side effects

      Well I don't think there's much that is the responsibility of the profiles any way you slice it... they generally work great except for the clicking parts and when HB fucks up the click-to-move (which means the errors are HB problems, not profile problems).
