I have the 3.3.5 Lazybot. The grinder settings are different for this version. The manual also uses MOP I am guessing. Anyway, My character will not loot after killing a mob. Yes I have auto loot checked. Is there something else I need to have checked for 3.3.5 Lazybot to loot.

Good morning, I had to format my pc and reinstall the game, but the game is at version 5.4.8 (18414) already have a date for when the bot will be upgraded to this version? Thank you.

Hi, I use lazybot version 1.7 on a wotlk 3.3.5 server. I'm new to the bot and need some help if possible
Bot works as intended, walks towards mobs, face them correctly etc, but the behavior dont work properly.
For every spell in the rotation I get the error message "Key: *spell* does not exist on your bars".

I searched for a while and found a few fixes for this, but none helped me. I dont have a single addon enabled, keybinds are reset to default.
Also all the keys are places between 1-0 in keybinds, as adviced from some other threads.

Could someone please help me in the right direction? I feel I'm close to getting it started
-----
Managed to remove the error by choosing the spell to "send key" instead of "cast spell", so I guess I can tweak the behavior to work now. Is there any way to get the "cast spell" function to work tho? Seems much more clean, however I'm just happy if I can get it working with the tweak
-----
Changed all spells to function with "send key", now the behavior was almost worse, refused to go into catform, and just stood there until it was low hp, at which point it started to spam heal. Log said constantly: Send 9 : 1 : 9, 7 : 1 : 7 over and over, more 9 : 1 : 9 and the other one tho.
I had the impression this bot was very basic and easy to understand, now I'm feeling really stupid here Maybe I dont deserve botting if I cant even figure this puzzle.
-----
Edited everything to include buff detecting of cat form on all spells etc, first tried with spell name, but those dont function well. Worked better with spell IDs. I think I'll have to simplify the behavior a bit tho, tiger's fury and rake made it very clunky, I managed to get a few kills with the bot, but not long after, 1 of those 2 would get stuck and bot would fail. Stay tuned for updates I've started to understand this bot well now, was easier than I thought, just need to know what im filling in.
-----
Buff detection is not working well for me, everything that depends on buff detection is being spammed and mess everything up. Even mark of the wild, spamming the buff until out of mana Seems like my only chance of getting this bot running is to use mangle and ferocious bite all the way, maybe a healing touch below 50% hp or something aswell. Advanced rotations require buff detection working. Anything I can do to fix it?

How do u find the buffs id?....See if the addon "ID tip" works on that version of wow, it shows the id's of all spells when u hover over them ingame.
Also the spells are prioritized from top to bottom, so just add cat form to the top in combat tab (also add it to pre-pull and pull tabs), and it will always go into cat before executing other spells, no need to add a check to each condition.

Oh my god, thank you so much Jumperu! With the Spell ID addon (prequel to ID tip), I managed to get a flawless rotation now with the new ID's
Everything working FLAWLESS! Oh wow, can't believe how much fun it was to make my own profile and my own behavior, now I'm tweaking and perfecting it as I please! Thanks to all the different threads on ownedcore who helped me through this Search-function made this possible for me

Hello, I had a question about the relative safety of this bot. I understand the risks of using a bot as I have used em with past games and have been banned for doing stupid stuff. You say that the bot is highly undetectable when not using Mouse Hook or Memory Writing. I am a time starved student hoping to make some gold before the xpac lands and I was wondering, would you guys honestly consider it safe to use this bot without MH/MW to farm mining etc if I am sitting right in front of it watching while doing homework or studying?

depends on how much you're gonna bot and if you're gonna be reported and checked. i use LB for nearly 24\24 botting, and if they report me, its a matter of time when i get banned (even if you answer to "hello, bot?" whispers instantly, ppl might send a report anyway and blizz will check you), only im not sure if its online uptime (pretty good proof ) or some memory check stuff makes them sure that you used bot program.

off-topic i beleive 6.0 pre-patch is gonna hit oct, 15. and i already cant wait for update (cant even guess how much work and time it might take since new addon always changes stuff alot )

Thanks for the response! I wouldn't be botting too long per day, maybe 2 hours a day? if that. I'm not planning to do over the top botting, just a bit here and there to close the gold gap that I am seeing.

No one under any circumstances, for ANY bot will be able to guarantee that you won't be banned. As i said in first post, if u don't use mw/mh the bot is 99% undetectable. That does not mean that a GM cannot personally watch/teleport/whisper and punish you after. In my opinion, gathering is most risky, cause the moves "like a bot" are pretty visible, and going the same route over and over might trigger some auto-checks on blizz side.

It all depends if you care about the account or not. There are a few guides @here ..some i linked in the 1st post also..that can help you minimize the risk while botting. Real all you can, it helps!

[skurrponce]

I see. Thanks for the response jumperu. I don't see any links in the post prior to this one, but I will definitely reread the first page of this thread. I do care about the account, but I feel confident in my ability to keep the farming random and unsuspicious as I do have a lot of experience with botting on other MMOs and diablo 2 (not much of a feat to bot on d2 lmao).

So let me get this straight, lazybot is undetectable on my side to scans if I am not using MH/MW, so the only way blizzard is going to catch me is either repeated reports or a GM manually doing detective work on me him/herself?

[tylen]

as i keep thinking logically: even if they cant say that you used a bot by scanning your memory, etc.(which im not 100% sure) imagine a worst case scenario: you get reported (you dont even know someone sent a ticket ofc), you keep botting 1-2 hours a day, a GM catches your botting character and notices some bottish moves while you were away (a cig \ kitchen \ bath \ out \ etc), again, he can even tp a bot and make sure it actually is a bot, there you go, get banned =)
Again, its a worst case scenario but still.. it kinda proves that there are ways to get detected and catched, and noone can 100% say you're safe

generally i think you got it right. me, i never use mh\mw, and i have a couple bots which still gather for 1-2 years and never got banned (even survived a couple mass ban waves) while other accounts get banned periodically, so i think its a matter of zone \ luck \ idk what else that some bots get reported and some dont

tough time waiting..
