Solo rogue Backstab script

do_know_a_little · Post by **do_know_a_little** » Mon Jul 07, 2003 5:46 am

I know people who can solo with their rogues by circles strafing and such, and I thought hey what a great idea for a script, I'm thinking its not something you leave on. You fight the mob and everytime the backstab button pops up you push a hotkey(something like /macro /endmacro).
It would circle strafe your quickly around your target and automatically backstab it. You guys are the geniuses.
Thanks

sub Main
/goto :wait
/return

:wait

/if n $char(ability,"Backstab")!=-2 /goto :backstab
/goto :wait

:backstab
/face fast nopredict
/sendkey down up
/delay .5s |may need to tweak delay
/sendkey up up
/face fast nopredict
/doability "Backstab"
/goto :wait

something like this probably would work. This will move you forward for 1 second and then make you face the back of the mob (don't do this with lots of people around) then it will backstab it every time backstab pops
EDIT:try this, I'll try and make a strafe one, will take some calculating

subroutine not found 'backstab'
I add the word Sub, maybe that'll make it work. checking.....
didn't work obviously I don't know what I'm doing...

changed /call backstab to /goto backstab checking...

it works only i run forward too far i think. also if another way to apporoach it would be to keep locked on to the target and sidestep sround to the back perhaps? im going to change th delay on you script and see how it works.

this is what I have so far for the strafe/BS macro

Code: Select all

sub Main 
/goto :wait 
/return 

:wait 

/if n $char(ability,"Backstab")!=-2 /goto :position
/goto :wait 

:position
      /varset v0 $target(heading)
/varcalc v1 $v0+485
/varcalc v2 $v0+515
/goto :positionsub
:positionsub
/varcalc v3 $char(heading)+500
/sendkey down ctrl
      /if n $target(distance)>40 /sendkey down up
      /if n $target(distance)<20 /sendkey up up
      /face fast
/if n "$v3"<"$v1"||"$v3">"$v2") /sendkey down left
/if n ("$v3"=>"$v1"&&"$v3"<="$v2") /goto :backstab
/goto :positionsub

:backstab 
/sendkey up ctrl
/sendkey up left
/echo $v0 target heading
/echo $v1 target heading +485
/echo $v2 target heading +515
/echo $v3 my heading
|/doability "Backstab" 
/echo backstabin!
/end
/goto :wait

the /echo code at the bottom is just a little debugging I was doing. This code doesn't exactly work. it seems to pass the code to :backstab no matter what. Can anyone see what I'm doing wrong?

Neatened it up a bit and fixed a few problems I could see.

It doesn't work I am locked on to it and the strafe modifier is on, but it I don't go around and stab the back. just stand there.

Eh, I can't exactly test it out (my pet would just look at me funny). Have you tried using the code half way down this page:

this one works correctly(tested). Unfortunatley, it can't do what you want it to do, whoch is get behind the mob and BS it solo. Infact, I don't think that's possible. By hand I ran behind my mob and typed /face fast, and then hit backstab. It didn't even think I was behind the mob. If you were to maybe stun the mob, or catch it casting, this one would work, but other then that no solo BSing.

this uses grimjacks getbehind system (would never have though to use trig). it will BS every 7.6 seconds if you're behind the mob.

Just so you know, I did not come up with that. I got it from this post.
