Blessed Ranging-Archer Bot ?!?

Recommended Posts

If a Character is going to be a Guild Map Guard Bot,and there are already two (2) Blessed Guard Bots with Great Swords and Armors,would a Blessing be wasted on a Ranging-Archer Guard Bot utilizing Elven w/*blank*-Arrows ?

I mean, it's not like the things gonna' pull the Bow string back any farther so the PK Arrow would hit any harder or go any deeper right ? I mean,all those AP pots shoulda' taken care of that aspect of it,right ?

Hit me back with your thoughts on this...and thanx for taking the time to do so.

 

Respectfully,

Tokie

Blessing would give it health so it wouldn't die as quickly as it might to other things..

 

As for having a ranging guard bot, what happens when someone ttr close so you can't range them?

You are suggesting an area with 2 blessed guard bots and are thinking of having a third bot in there to shoot arrows?

 

TBH its way over the top. Any player in there would be killed very quickly by the two guard bots - probably before the archer bot had chance to fire a single arrow.

 

Do not be put off by constantly seeing Corpus dead on IP - a properly equiped and trained guard bot is very very very hard to kill. Attention to map design and bot build will greatly improve this.

The bot would need perception to see the intruders (depends on the distance to the intruders/light and so on) it would need a pretty high ranging level to be effective and AP pots is a must and ofc the perk/s would be good too, and all that would be compleatly wasted because someone would use ttr and get too close to the bot for it to fire, or the other 2 bots would kill the opponents before it would be able to shot an arrow.

 

Also depending on the location of the bot the other bots will attack the intruders and might be in the line of fire for the archer bot so it can't do anything but stand there watching.

 

Would be alot of effort to put into a bot that might not even be of any use, it all depends on how the map looks where the bot would stand if intruders would be able to get past the first 2 bots..

You could easily have your ranging guard bot not be attackable by putting it on a single walkable tile with no walkable tiles around it, so nothing could get close enough to melee it.

 

With that said, 2 guard bots (properly leveled, etc) will already be just fine imho.
