Sharing my autoIt script :: Sarkoth (loot and optimized for DH)

[Mad man]

This is a great script, especially with the last update where you added the check for the loading screen. This speeds up the runs considerably. After some research it seems that these runs are usually done in N. I didn't know that when I started using this script, so I am still doing runs in Inferno. I am doing 120k gold per hour, probably due to my low gold find of 158. Due to Inferno I need to have gear that does damage in order to kill Sarkoth quickly and to survive a hit or two from a zombie. The upside are the drops of higher level items (>60) and gems and not to mention the rares. I don't have any magic find, but I find a rare once a week. So selling these is making me an additional million a week (I am too lazy to do any research before posting them on the AH so they are gone within minutes). This means that I adjusted the script for survivability which will probably take the runs a bit longer than the original script. I also use a slightly different build than yours, namely with caltraps, also for survivability reasons. Dying is also occuring rarely, mainly thanks to the latest update of the script.

The script has some minor bugs that were already reported by others:
- sometimes it shoots at enemies due to walking by mouse clicks, however I don't mind because I don't have a middle mouse button (as that would be the only alternative; bound walk to second mouse button).
- some rares are not deposited in the chest while some whites are in fact deposited in the chest. This has however never been a problem because I don't do more than 5 runs before going to the vendor. This way your inventory will have enough room even for rares for 12 hours straight (depending on magic find of course).
- some gems are not deposited in chest, but sold. I don't care because I am only interested in green gems and they are deposited in the chest without issues.

The only big issue that I have is the case when Lea stands in the way when going to the merchant. When this happens the character will not be able to leave town and the script must be reset. I saw this happen once in a few days, but yesterday I saw the reason why. I guess it is going to be hard to fix this one because it occurs so sporadically?

So thanks a lot for this great script!

thank you for your input. Will use your suggestions

I'm running it with 200MF and 100GF. I don't care much about the gold, the game is boring to play, so I'm not buying gears.

I enjoy coming back every evening to check out what the bot deposited in my stash. I enjoy it a lot more than the actual game ^^

Updated script on first page!

Please post feedback !

For me personally, I use your script (especially now with the new features!) but I keep modifying a few things every time you update by stealing sections from other scripts.

1. I change the movement to the cellar so that middle mouse is used to move instead of mouse clicks so there isn't any danger of clicking on an enemy and attacking it. Perhaps you could make this an option if you have the time. Coords would be the same, just using MouseClick("middle", instead.

2. The combat seems to work better, in my experience anyway, if you stand just outside the doorway instead of inside the room. The mobs are more predictable... They don't move. Somewhere around 110, 1000 works

3. I speed things up. This may not work for everyone... But I like to spend as much time in smoke screen as possible when I do this. You can completely get rid of the first caltrops if the smoke screen is used earlier, and delays are reduced. One thing I'll test one day is if laying bombs will work better for survivability.

4. I wonder if there's a way to make selling the remaining whites more efficient... I believe they could be targeted based on the background black/brown color mix.

5. Random commands.... It's good to have a random time in here so we don't all have the exact same time per run. I don't know how much time it would take, but someone could probably go nuts with random commands. Random delays for sure, but you could also do random clicks within a range for the salvage + merchants. You could even have which merchant it goes to sell at random. If I get free time I can try to put something together, since it's pretty annoying to do and you've already done a lot.

Thanks for your improvements! Will test them to see how things go

Because I was curious.... I tested out TP'ing vs just leaving the game. TP'ing seems to be the better option.


There's a Send(2) and Send(4) that need quotations

I think SHIFTUP should be SHIFT UP
SHIFTDOWN should be SHIFT DOWN

Not sure if it's just me, but after salvaging the inferno dust didn't get dropped into my stash. Same with the hell yellow.

So I changed the colors.

;inferno dust
$Searching = True
while $Searching
$Pixel3 = PixelSearch(1400,584,1900,874,0xAA88C7 )

; hell yellow mats
$Searching = True
while $Searching
$Pixel3 = PixelSearch(1400,584,1900,874,0xbda68c )

;hell dust
$Searching = True
while $Searching
$Pixel3 = PixelSearch(1400,584,1900,874,0xAA9A70 )

I think there might be multiple colors needed for each dust


It also didn't make it to the vendor to sell, think the locations are off.. Will keep testing and edit when I get a chance.

if($SalvageBlues)Then
MouseClick("left", 1055, 225) ;go to vendor

That mouse click is wrong, ends up putting char in a corner. I changed it to

MouseClick("left", 858, 354) ;go to vendor



I did not test Brimstone or Green items as I don't have any.

[gallicy]

i'm picking ALL white itens, how can i deactivate ?

[clawlancer]

For guys , who cant detect the cellar try to use this:
Search for this lane: " ;Start Run"
Press Enter
Put In this: "Sleep(800)"
Then search for this lane: " RandClick("middle", 1, Round(370*$y_ratio), 5*$x_ratio, 5*$y_ratio) ;waits ~1 second then [waypoint 2]
Moving(1875)"
Put In This after MOVING: "Sleep(800)"
It makes usually +1.5 seconds each run, but works for me very well!

For me personally, I use your script (especially now with the new features!) but I keep modifying a few things every time you update by stealing sections from other scripts.

You should post the full script so we can test it, I think the middle button should be added right away, I just tried it and works flawlessly, saves lots of random deaths. I also changed the shooting rutine so after a few shots on Sarkoth I turn to the upper mob instead of the lower one because that one tends to run away more often.

PS: What passives are you using to speed up the run?

[Kanenenights]

Script still stop after an hour or so.

[krims0nknite]

Just a note, I think anyone using this will end up making more money not using the salvage.
Prices are dropping on the inferno dusts

Only use salvage option if you need dusts to make some gear...

Also plans don't seem to get picked up. 0x05C331A (yellow plans, not sure if works for blue)

Your DepositRare can be shorter.
There were some it wasn't depositing (Templar Chalice + A Belt + Various Others)
I had a pretty good idea to just detect the question mark!

Func DepositRare()
;Yellow
;1st color
; Any item with ?
$cnt = 0
$Searching = True
while $Searching
$Pixel3 = PixelSearch(1400,584,1900,874,0xFFFFFF )
if Not @error Then
MouseClick("right", $Pixel3[0], $Pixel3[1])
Sleep(500)
$cnt = $cnt + 1
if $cnt > 8 Then
$Searching = False
EndIf
Else
$Searching = False
EndIf
WEnd
EndFunc

There are two things I want to play around with... The move coords, try to find something where I die less.
And I think there's a way to speed up selling items rather than clicking on every inventory spot.

When I play around with it I'll post my butchered version.

[Mad man]

Had some free time to work on the script.

Updated OP with new script


Update5
-Now uses middle click to move
-Greatly improved speed
-Added option to reduce death (will make the run last a bit longer)
-Added option to easily increase the shooting time. Increase the value if you can't kill sarkoth.
-Updated colors to find. Should be a lot better now.
-Now uses random values.
-Cleaned up the code. That was such a mess.
-Make sure to change your skill to the new one posted (in bold).
-Added timers to help you choose between options

[krims0nknite]

Your script looks sexy as hell now if I may say so!

This has quickly become the best Sarkoth script.

For depositrares of any color, 0xFFFFFF is the only color you need (I think anyway.. That's the question mark)

[Mad man]

0xFFFFFF is the HEX for pure white

[krims0nknite]

Ah. I guess it only works when you're not picking up whites (Had that to off)

I will try to find that pure blue they use and test that out.

Having a lot of problems first time through....
It's using too much discipline in the start with all the caltrops. There are five in there + smoke screen.
Won't TP when it doesn't detect the cellar, and when I enter the cellar it won't continue.
Playing around with it...

NOTE: The not TP'ing and not continuing in the cellar were because I had my texture turned low I think. Doh! Seems to be mostly corrected now, still occurring sometimes though... Can't nail down why.


I changed the move to room. It helps looting, and not being stuck, if you stick a bit near the doorway.
MouseClick("middle", 720 + GetRandomInt(10, 20), 270 + GetRandomInt(10, 20), 1) ;move to center on the room
I find it also helps to send out ferrets again right before hitting the TP button, in case they get stuck by chest.

0x00389C is a color that works for all question marks (All unidentified items).

0x715A4A works for yellow blacksmith plans, but should also work for blue jewelcrafter plans I believe...


Side idea for much later: Spend a few seconds shooting off some hungering arrows when cellar not detected, to kill off random zombies in area.

[Mad man]

minor update to fix a loop where the bot could get stuck.

[bluedevil1337]

Script still stop after an hour or so.

I'm having this issue as well. Diablo 3 will eventually freeze up and stop running. I made a script to end the diablo process, start it back up, log me in, and start up the farming script. However, I can't start up the actual runs! I've tried using Send ("="), selecting the window, and a few other functions. But none of them seem to work. Is there anyway to start this farming script without the need for a hotkey, or does someone know how to send the hotkey? Im pretty new to this so I am quite terrible at writing them.

Thanks for any help

[Mad man]

Script still stop after an hour or so.

I never had that issue. idk if it's related to the script
