[Question] Make a Mob Cast a Spell When Critted?

[kevinno]

On blizzard server's there is a mob that casts a spell whenever he is critically hit. This is because if he is critted, the player will be then killed by that spell.

How is this done?

Is there an Lua command?

Or is it done with C++?


Try not for the one word awnsers guys :yuck:
-Thanks in advance and +Rep if it is solved

does that help?

[kevinno]

Thank you. But i was looking for more of an Lua alternative, or C++ if need be.

What you linked me to is interesting, i tried it and it didn't work. However i probally made a mistake.

Does anyone else have any solutions?

[b!atch]

Maybe you should ask TheSpidey. Hes pretty good with c++, and im pretty sure this is impossible with lua

[imsosorrygms]

Actually im sure u can do it with lua but when i look after it i cant find it so i think u need to add functions to do it with lua

[b!atch]

Maybe lua++ but normal lua.. hmm xE

[Greeko]

No, i thinks it possible to do it with lua++, even with normal lua i think
Yeah, you should ask TheSpidey, he is really good with C++ etc..

[doublehex]

you can use (C++) OnTargetCritHit ill setup a creature script with this for you

edit: just re-read 1st post and saw you wanted player crit, fixed post, anyone know the npc id so i can find out more about him? like what spell he casts and such

[TheSpidey]

Seems like doublehex is on it

What creature is this?

[doublehex]

ive never seen a creature like it before, im searching around on the online database and havent found anything yet.

Looks like this is caused by a spell rather than a special AI.

Well, Heres my Situation....
High Overlord Saurfang Casts these following spells on blizzard servers...
-26339 WHENEVER HE IS CRITTICALLY HIT on the player that crit him.
-14100 Every 30 seconds
-15749 If the main tank tries to run
-16044 Every 6 seconds, insane amounts of damage as told
-24573 500% damage strike, unknown cast periods




Heres my Lua Script without spell 26339 (When he is critted)

 
function Saurfang_OnCombat(Unit, Event) 
Unit:SendChatMessage(13, 0, "Lok'Tar!")
end
function Saurfang_Cleave(pUnit, Event) 
pUnit:CastSpellOnTarget(16044, pUnit:GetClosestPlayer()) 
end
function Saurfang_TerrifyingRoar(pUnit, Event) 
pUnit:CastSpell(14100, pUnit:GetRandomPlayer(0)) 
end
function Saurfang_ShieldCharge(pUnit, Event) 
pUnit:CastSpellOnTarget(15749, pUnit:GetRandomPlayer(4)) 
end
function Saurfang_MortalStrike(pUnit, Event) 
pUnit:CastSpellOnTarget(24573, pUnit:GetMainTank()) 
end
 
function Saurfang_OnDied(Unit, Event) 
print SAURFANG HAS BEEN SLAIN. HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE!!!!!
Unit:RemoveEvents()
end
function Saurfang_OnKilledTarget(Unit, Event) 
Unit:SendChatMessage(12, 0, "I hope your're counting, Brox.") 
end
RegisterUnitEvent(14720, 1, "Saurfang_OnCombat")
RegisterUnitEvent(14720, 2, "_OnLeaveCombat")
RegisterUnitEvent(14720, 3, "Saurfang_OnKilledTarget")
RegisterUnitEvent(14720, 4, "Saurfang_OnDied")

So now im wondering, can i keep this script and add another? (like C++ or Lua++?)
+Rep to all the people who have been helping me btw

[TheSpidey]

You should make a C++ script.
Check the Creature AI to see if there's an event on player crits creature. There should be.

[doublehex]

yea i think its
void OnTargetCritHit(Unit* mTarget, float fAmount)

[kevinno]

C++ is abit out of my reach, unless someone makes one for me...

As for the AI, i tried that, yet the mob then refuesed to do ALL fighting actions.
You can see my reply to http://www.mmowned.com/forums/ascent...ls-no-lua.html

on that forum.
Heres what i said.

Well... I did
Entry, Type, Event, Chance, Maxcount, Spell, Spelltype, Targettype, Cooldown, FloatMisc1, Misc2
14720, 4, 13, 100, 0, 26339, 8, 0, 0, 0, 0
Entry of Saurfang, 4= A Spell, 13=UnitCrit(when he is critted), 100=100% chance to proc when critted, 0 can proc infinite times, 26339=Spell that will be used when critted, 8= It's a damage spell, 0=A null target-The one who crits them?, 0= No cooldown on the proc.

What's the solution? The mob now doesnt even perform fighting, he runs to the target when aggroed and then stands there.
