Defend (script)

Defend (script)
Category	combat,Warrior Mage
Front-end	StormFront

This is the script that I use to train defenses. I've only really tested it using Warrior Mage spells, but it should work for any other guild's damage spells. AoE spells are preferable, but anything that can hit without fully targeting should work.

The script has only one parameter, which is the number of critters you want in the room. It will run in wait mode, letting critters attack you. It will check the critter count every seven seconds. When there are too many critters in the room, the script enters kill mode, where it retreats and casts the spell you specify until there are an acceptable number of critters. It will then loot the corpses and return to wait mode.

Be sure to change the variables in the script. They are:

• wait_mode_stance: This is the stance you want to use in wait mode. Set attack to zero to take advantage of the extra 20 defense points.
• kill_mode_stance: This is the stance you want to use in kill mode. Make sure attack is 100 and set the other points to your best defenses.
• kill_spell: The spell you want to use in kill mode. Abbreviations are fine.
• kill_spell_mana: The amount of mana you want to harness after prep.
• loot_method: Type of looting to perform on dead critters. Leave it blank for the default looting method.
