[PQR]PvP Skill Amplifier: Stealthers' Bane

[RedRussian]

http://www.ownedcore.com/forums/worl...ation-bot.html is required

Greetings everyone!
This info will be useful to PQR PvP profile authors. I've created a code to automatically reveal stealthers in bgs/rbgs/arenas and you can easily put it into your profiles!

Principle of work
It's very simple. It tracks all invisible stealthers (those who cannot be targeted at the moment) and scans the area for them. List of invisible stealthers is updated every 2 seconds. It won't interrupt your spellcasting/channeling with stealth-breaker ability or target change. /target spam won't affect performance of your game.

How to use it
You can create a new ability in your pvp profile and put my code there.
This part is responsible for stealthed list update period:

local rescan_period = 2 --how often stealthed list is repopulated

and this defines stealth-breaker spell for each class:

local function Breaker() --instant stealth breaker, class dependent
local _, playerClass = UnitClass("player")
...
end

BONUS - AUTO FLAG PICKUP/RETURN
Auto flag pickup/return with option of running to the flag if Shift is pressed.


All-Purpose Stealthers' Bane
Random BG-Only Stealthers' Bane
Auto flag pickup/return

I'm looking forward to get your feedback and tips on improvement!

@holinka please look at this and make it not work http://www.ownedcore.com/forums/worl...hers-bane.html

@Ghostcrawler please take a look at this and stahp it from functioning http://www.ownedcore.com/forums/worl...hers-bane.html

Updates:
07/06/13 Code cleanup+slightly improved logic
12/06/13 A new small code cleanup+logic improvement. Added distance check to prevent annoying /target spam glitch
17/06/13 Name collisions partially fixed
20/06/13 A final nail in the coffin of name collisions
05/07/13 A small but important logic update: your target now switches to spotted stealther instead of returning to the last target
09/07/13 Slightly optimized performance
19/07/13 Code cleanup + improved performance + improved logic for druids
22/07/13 Serpent Sting is hunter's default spell now. It costs only 15 focus making it the cheapest instant ability.
20/08/13 Stealther's Bane is split in two versions: All-purpose stealth breaker working in Arenas/RBGs/Random BGs and Random BG-Only version with optimized performance. Added PetAttack() so stealthers out of LoS won't be unreachable.
10/09/13 Improved spell selection for hunter.
14/09/13 Spellcast Fake is updated. Added a fancy alert of interrupt attempts.
20/10/13 Stealthers' Bane: perforamnce is improved. Added a GY camp mode: rogues and druids are preventively hit with the stealth-breaker spell after rezzing. They won't slip away if your latency is good enough!

This sounds pretty awesome, dude!

Good work, these are spells I would use to pull from stealth.

local function Breaker() --instant stealth breaker, class dependent
	local _, playerClass = UnitClass("player")
	if playerClass == "WARRIOR" then
		return 57755 --Heroic Throw
	elseif playerClass == "PALADIN" then
		return 20271 --Judgment
	elseif playerClass == "HUNTER" then
		return 19503 --Scatter Shot
	elseif playerClass == "ROGUE" then
		if IsStealthed() then
			return 6770 --Sap
		else
			return 121733 --Throw
		end
	elseif playerClass == "PRIEST" then
		return 589 --Shadow Word: Pain
	elseif playerClass == "DEATHKNIGHT" then
		return 45477 --Icy Touch
	elseif playerClass == "SHAMAN" then
		return 8056 --Frost Shock
	elseif playerClass == "MAGE" then
		return 30455 --Ice Lance
	elseif playerClass == "WARLOCK" then
		return 77799 --Fel Flame
	elseif playerClass == "MONK" then
		return 115078 --Paralysis
	elseif playerClass == "DRUID" then
		return 770 --Faerie Fire
	else
		return 0
	end
end

That's a good idea, but it does (in theory) depend on the server revealing the stealthed player to you, unless I'm mistaken you aren't going to be randomly getting people out of stealth unless they walk right next to you. Having said that stealth is so broken right now you probably will have a high success rate.

[RedRussian]

Yes, stealthers are revealed only if they're actually visible to you. It just provides you with superhuman reaction time As far as I know server doesn't even send you info about stealthed players who are invisible to you, for this reason no "real" stealth detection cheats exist.

Thanks a lot for filling a breaker function with spells.

As a hunter with track hidden, this is gamebreaking Feral druids and rogues have never been easier to beat.

I'll update it to work in arenas and rbgs tomorrow.

Brilliant +5

Edit, I suppose i have to Spread some more rep around before i give more to you.

Updated to work in arena and rbgs.

I've been seeing people in BGs using bots (and players probably using code like this in their PQR profile) that instantly take you out of stealth. Like as soon as you go too close to their cone of sight, they'll hit you with an ability way faster than any human would do it and it's very common. I think there's a lot of people using PQR these days. Soon it'll get to the point where it's just profile versus profile.

The one who uses superior technology wins? I'd love such game

As long as you control you're character and don't use instant interrupt, you're good.

end

I would add a 'if IsStealthed('player') then' to druids
