Behavior when farming mobs WAY under your level

Is there any way (or is anybody creating a way) to have the bot behave differently when farming targets vastly lower in level than the character? Would this be in the CC or part of the core HB movement logic?

I am running a profile that farms Twilight Texts from level 54 mobs in Silithus and my character is behaving much more bot-like than when he is killing mobs around his level (i.e. mobs that actually require fighting and can't be 1-shot). He is a level 85 and kills the mob while running up to it, then turns around and runs back several yards, then runs to the body to loot.

Ideally, my character would 1-shot the target while moving to them, and then just continue forward to loot the body instead of resetting back to the path before looting. Even if I turn looting off, he still runs back to his path awkwardly after casting 1 spell to kill the mob.

Thank you!

 

It happens both with Fpsware Paladin, and with Singular. Which is why my low knowledge about HB led me to think it is something in HB itself? It's not the end of the world if there is no solution, but it would be super neat if there was.

 

we'll need some logs

and what profile are you using?

I tried it without GoF on and it still happens.

Here is a new log with the GoF folder removed from the HB folder. I have since switched to a Mag'har farming profile, but it exhibits the exact same behavior.

I think the problem is during the lag time between when the mob gets 1-shot and when the combat flag drops off. During that time, my character runs away (I assume to try to drop combat) until the very instant he is no longer in combat, and then detects "oh hey sweet, there's a corpse over there to loot" and runs back.

There is no way to keep the game from creating time between when the mob actually dies and when the combat flag drops off, but maybe HB could not run away to drop combat until after a few seconds has elapsed to compensate for the natural server lag time between mob death and combat flag dropping, if fighting mobs way under your level (and I assume this would not happen to casters since they don't need to run up to a mob until it's dead; my paladin is obviously melee).

This behavior is probably working as intended; I'm just trying to suggest a way to reduce people getting caught in these situations.

 

Hey, i got the same problem and im trying to solve this to but have no idea how.
But it is as you say about beeing in combat and then when he leaves combat he goes back to the mob and loots it. If my paladin kills with judgement on far distance he will have time to leave combat before he enters the mob and then loots it right away.

 

I do also have this same issue.. Very annoing actually. I would be very glad if someone a bit more expert than me could help us out!

 

I do also got a problem that my char is sometimes just standing like 10yards from a mob without using jugdement or something. Ima paladin. I use the standard CC that comes with HB. and I am also grinding lowlevels..

 

I am having this issue on two different toons, 1 DK and 1 Paladin both using singular. The bot kills one mob runs past it going to another hotspot then runs back to the corpse and loots it. I am also running Kickz's 1 - 525 Skinning ally

 

same here, i think bot gets confused that the mob dies to fast so its not next to it when it dies to loot, so runs to next mob then it kicks in it should run back and loot. very very annoying and very botlike

 

was there ever a fix to this? having same problem on a pally, noticed this is from 2010 though.
