[Gold/Itemfarming] [AutoIt] Sarkoth Act I Dank Cellar [WD] [Stash, Sell, Repair, +++]

[zEEneXx]

Yea, I had a few using the 1.4 version.

ok atleast i know now the loot function works properly

I have everything setup correctly. I'm at the character screen and after I run the bot it exits diablo and takes me back to the log in screen. It's failing to click resume game. I have the right resolution and all my other settings are correct. Can anyone explain why this is happening and how to fix it?

if everything is set up correct this wont happen

check hardwareclass and all other settings again

Hot monkey a stick.. Awesome script! Got it working in a couple of minutes with a few tweaks.
Ran it for 30 minutes got 222k and one yellow in 38 runs. 72 closed. With 330%gf, 48mf, 16+ Pick up radius and ~18k unbuffed ~25k DPS (buffed with BBV)

Here is what I found to useful after watching it run:
I replaced skill 3 with Acid Cloud (Corpse Bomb), Right-Click mouse button with Wall of Zombie (Unrelenting Grip) and Skill 2 Fetish Army( Fetish Ambush)

One cast of Corpse Bomb does 200% weapon damage, this will effectively take out the white mobs around Sarkoth also a chunk of his health, and with Wall of Zombie Sarktooth will get boxed in along with where the white mob died. A few more Splinters (~2 cast) will finish him off without him moving. You have around 20k Buffed DPS to pull this off since the white mobs usually 20-40k health. Lower should be Okay too since wall of zombie will last a couple of seconds, and you shoot darts immediately after the cast sequences anyways.
The idea is that the gold and item drops around in a smaller area. So you can turn on the higher pick up radius function and use the shorter route without the actual bonus pick up radius. Time saved = gold gained amiright ?
You can still pick up ~100% of the gold each run with pick up radius like maybe around ~5-10, Once in a blue moon you might miss one or two hundred gold.. but I'd take the latter.

The Fetish Army with Fetish Ambush rune:
I notice when the the cellar door is closed, as the toon is casting town portal it can get interrupted by near by zombies and quilfiends sometimes, and you end up waiting a couple of seconds to retry again.
The Fetish Ambush rune does 250% damage per fetish summoned around the WD, this protects the toon when he is casting the portal.

Happy botting, and thank you zeenexx again for making such a great bot!

nice report dude

the skill setup is personal preference i think. for me now, with the original setup, sarkoth drops in about 2 seconds without moving a single time in 100 runs. Sometimes i get hit by a zombie while teleporting but those little basterds save me most of the time

what i though about is how neccessary the fetishes are for sarkoth tokill. maybe we should change them with horrify and the movementspeed glyph. would save 0,5 seconds(?) to run to the cellar and cc all zombies around... what do you think?

First of all, thank you for that great script. According the banwave today, which has been started yesterday, how secure do you think you bot is?

I thought about some additional randomization:

Maybe after x runs (x should be a random number), the bot decides to change quest in menu and start that quest. After that, the bot could stay in that game for some minutes and then it should start Quest 1-6 again. (it's always the same route to the Dank Cellar coming from the WP).

Another idea: Make some possible randomization in pausing the script and staying for some minutes oder seconds (dunno what should be better) in the menu and returning after that time to the regular script.

Last but not least: Start/Stop the script at a configurable time. (if you are too bored, include a GUI to configure all variables)

BUUUUUUUUUUT:

I want to thank you to that awesome scirpt. I think another poster said that before, but I see there is a lot of love for odds and ends in that script. well done!

lol good point! I used the d3prefs that you provided. Shouldn't the value already be correct in that file? If not, what do you suggest I change it to? Whats happening is I run the bot when I'm at my character screen. Instead of hitting resume game the mouse moves above it where it shows what Act and Difficulty your on. Then it looks like Esc is being pressed and it clicks log out. Thanks for your work/help. I'd really like to get this fixed!

Secure as every other autoit bot without memory reading / writing, randomization etc.

Hmm.. i don't think more randomization is worth it.. if blizzard has statistics about sarkoth kills or how many times you do a quest / open a new game it dosen't matter if you change the quest for about 5 min.

We all and Bli$$ard knows:

After you inserted the d3prefs.txt start d3 and check every single setting:
- Displaymode "Windowed (Fullscreen)"
- Resolution 1920x1080

if thats correct close d3 and have a look at your d3prefs.txt and serach for the hardwareclass. if its 3 it should be ok.

also make sure if you are running on vmware to set the desktop resolution of windows to 1920x1080

and if its not working then there is no option left :/

So, I just realized..this new script puts some random blues in the stash. It salvages most of the 60s but somehow 1-5 blues make it into my stash somehow. Quite strange..because the settings are the same as before from the 1.4 script.

Okay I will try that when I get home. Also, I'm not running this through VMware, should I be? It's running straight from my machine. Does my windows resolution need to be set at 1920x1080 as well? Thanks again!

that can happen because the selling / salvaging delays were lowered. i noticed this too overnight. try to higher sell delay if you have lvl<60 in your stash and higher salvage delay if you have 60<lvl<$keeplevel in your stash

yes everything needs to be set as 1920x1080 as far as i know

[R444ge]

Can anybody report a looted legendary / set item for the last 7 days?

I have looted 1 set and 1 legendary from last night, until now=)

[jp0ll]

Yeah that makes sense. If the resolution is to high then it would explain why the mouse isn't clicking resume game. It's not in the correct place.

[zEEneXx]

Maybe I can start to code on wizzard and barb tonight. depends on blizzard

I have looted 1 set and 1 legendary from last night, until now=)

nice one

What is deal with Blizz finding this script...I don't understand what Warden detects...do you feel this is still safe? 50/50 I guess, haven't botted since yesterday, guess I'm a fraidy cat

D3 is a crappy game.. Don't care anymore if I get banned or hacked. It's just an Idle-Money-Making-Machine for me since I reached 60.

Botting is always risky. But with AutoIt scripts you are at least a bit more safe than with injection bots.

The worst aspect of a ban would be that I have to stop developing this bot. It was actually much more fun than playing D3...

[R444ge]

You have to put up a fond, charity here for a D3 game too keep you programming XD

[dorianc]

I've botted with this script for about 10-16 hours a day casually for my own use and I haven't been banned. Everything in moderation, guys. The only people I've seen banned are people running multiple instances on the same computer. That's probably how they are banning people.

[R444ge]

But if someone have done 4000 cellar in 1 go it would look suspicious. If they do a search for those kind of things. Never the less, if your not prepered to get banned, then dont use bots XD Always a "Risk". Huhu But its fun when someone comes home from work, and just go and craft the shit out of money, then sell the stuff for multum XD This is the only, almost, thing left thats fun. Haha... Wait to see if it found something nice =)
Before this, I crit 350 k with my WD. So its not like ive never played this game befor using bot.
But ur right the chance of getting banned should be much higher with multiply games on 1 computer.
