I basically searched through the whole Azzi AI GUI but can't seem to find an option to set lava slide to be recast ASAP.

 

The description text says that lava slide is assuming a lasting time of 7.5 second but that is wayyyy too long (especially when mobbed). Is there a way to shorten this recast (attempt) delay to something more like 3-5 second, if asap is not a choice? The Dietar is leveling very inefficiently simply because the lava slide recast means it can only kill 5 mobs every 7.5 second, while it has tons of sp and and 1-hit all the mobs in OD2 QQ 

 

(I'm leveling a Sera at that same time, and the level spread has been widening to a depressing degree...)

H_SkillList.lua - change the last set of numbers (5000,5000,5000,5000,5000), lower = shorter

SkillInfo[MH_LAVA_SLIDE ]={"Lava Slide",{7,7,7,7,7},{30,35,40,45,50},{1000,1000,1000,1000,1000},{5000,4500,4000,3500,3000},{700,700,700,700,700},2,{12000,14000,16000,18000,20000},{5000,5000,5000,5000,5000}}

By the way, one lava slide can hit more than 5 mobs.

Wow thanks. Gonna test this and see what would be a good delay time

Still want other buffs like bulwark being cast so can't go solely lava slide

400 milliseconds is what i use. Set offensive and defensive buff to ASAP it will give them priority over lava slide. If lava slide one shots a mob then set it to ignore in tactics so it will just spam lava slide instead of wasting time attacking. If it doesn't one shot then you can set to react medium to hit them that one last time to preserve lava slide procs. Or just ignore everything but Archer and spam lava slide lol. Ignore also helps him to stand there and regain sp faster. Make sure you don't use idle walk also. Another tip: change level two bulwark to recast at 30000 instead of 35000 for unlimited hp buff while you are in H_Skill.lua.

Thanks for the detailed instructions

 

I'm also leveling a sera so probably can't set up all mobs to be ignored. I think i'm currently using 1500 as the number but shorter seems possible with the ASAP buff option.

 

Changing the bulwark recast time sounds awesome. I always feel a bit disappointed when some hp suddenly disappeared due to recasting timing

400 m/s is the fastest cast possible without lowering autoskilldelay option i think. I haven't tried any faster but this way + ignore mobs keeps lava slide up as much as possible. Lava slide is much different from poison mist it doesn't stay up for a long period of time agroing mobs for sera to punch/needle/mist. If lava slide is not up half the mobs will just run by so the amount of time in between recasts makes a huge difference in exp/hr. In heavy mob conditions when lava slide hits 5+ mobs and immediately goes away it will recast ASAP at 400 m/s. Lava slide insta kill 5+ things per cast so dieter doesn't need to punch/skill like sera and since lava slide needs to be recast very frequently he needs to ignore everything but archer or else he will punch one mob at a time while half the other mobs run by instead of casting lava slide and continually wiping everything in a 7x7. Everything in od2 will run to your red square of death either to agro or loot without having to attack them. Except archer of course he gets punched/sniped. Id just change the od2 tactics depending on the homunculus you are currently playing with it only takes a minute or so to change 5 tactics from ignore to whatever other setting for sera and will make a big difference in the exp/hr for dieter.
