How-to beat the harderst Arcane pylon in the Coldlight cavern ~(61 23)

[jomo666]

For the Trove tracker Trove Tracker - Achievement - World of Warcraft achi.

Most of you, (younger players) will not need the following, but myself was unable to finish this pylon manually, because of my age (nearly 60 years), my reflexes are much slower as are needed for this ... So, from some youtube video I created an precision timing and sharing it here.

You need only some autoclicker with precision timer. Near the end are some misses, but it still getting the job done. (worked for me at the 1st try!)

Honestly I don't know where to post this. It could be taken as guide, but it involves some "autoclicker", so definitely isn't allowed in the game by rules. But it isn't any exploit... so... posted it here.

Here are the times and buttons - use these in you auto-clicker software.

w:wait time in miliseconds and the 1,2,3 are the keys needed to press after the wait time

0	- START (e.g. clicked the pylon)
w:6300	1	- npc talking about fiendish difficulty :)

Any chance you could tell me the program you used to do the autoclicker. I tried a couple with these settings and it didn't work.

[jomo666]

I'm playing on mac, so i wrote one small program in swift. Terrible, (as my 1st) but works. If you play on windows - you need employ some autoclicker - unfortunately I didn't know windows environment at all - so can't help more.

Hi im having trouble. I dont know how to use the software. Are you able to link me what autoclicker software you use please

There's a program called Macro Express Pro for Windows from macros.com . There's a 30-day free trial. Once you have it, create a Hot Key macro and set a hotkey that isn't in use by the program-- such as ctrl-Q. Here is the timing converted to a MEP script-- use the View--Direct Editor and paste this in and save it. Much thanks to the original poster!!

That was REALLY helpful, thanks a lot!!
I used my own code and language, but you done all the tedious work of finding the timing, and the idea itself.
NICE!!

[Dan1234]

will i get banned for using the program?

[spoondrift]

Unlikely, but theoretically possible. In practice, this really isn't the sort of thing that Blizzard is worried about. I've used MEP for longer than I've played WoW (14+ years) and it just takes the "stress" out of repetitive stress. For example, I use <ctrl> A to click the Post button every time I submit an auction, simply to avoid having to move the mouse to the left and back every time. It's less automation than TradeSkillMaster and that is perfectly legitimate.

Script with times doesn't work anymore

[spoondrift]

Script with times doesn't work anymore

There are multiple Arcane Pylons with different sequences of moves and timing. This script will only work on the Arcane Pylon in the cave at 61.3 19.8 . It's the hardest of the Arcane Pylon with about 58 moves. I have confirm that my script still works with that one.

[Dan1234]

it doesn't work anymore i lose with the script

[spoondrift]

Sorry. Without more details about which solution you are using, ping times, and which pylon, there's not enough to go on. As I said before, it still works for me. I'm sorry if it does not work for you.

[Dan1234]

the keys it presses are wrong
im at arcane pylon 61.40 22.86

[spoondrift]

That sounds like it is the wrong pylon for you. There are 4 Arcane Pylons. It is possible that which one is at which location changes per player. Try the script on the other 3 and it should work for one of them.

/way 80 32 On the roof
/way 25 35 In the cave
/way 38 6 in the cave underwater ~40 10, swimming over the map
/way 61 23 in the cave ~61.5 20

[Dan1234]

/way 61 23 the pylon in the cave with that battle pet?
at that pylon i lose hp 4/6 at start and then after 10-20 i lose again hp and its over
