Quest function to cause mob to be damaged?

I want MobA to loose say 100 hps every time MobB is killed.

I can't quite find the code that allows this to happen, though still playing around. Figured this probably isn't a complicated one. If anyone knows let me know.

Thanks

Figured it out 2 minutes after posting was just a syntax error in what I thought should have worked. Found it in the quest object section of wiki.

$npc->Damage($npc, 100, spell_ID, skill_value, true, -1, false);

Works well.

The only subs you will need should be:
sub EVENT_DEATH
sub EVENT_SIGNAL

And you will probably want to use a signal for the dead NPC to send a signal to the boss. Then, when the boss gets the signal, they remove 100 hps from themselves.

Code:

quest::signal(npc_id, [wait]) - cause an EVENT_SIGNAL on all mobs in the zone with this NPC type, with $signalid = 0. wait is an optional time to wait in ms before sending signal.

quest::signalwith(npc_id,signal_id, [wait]) - same as signal(), except it sets $signal to the supplied signal_id. wait is an optional time to wait in ms before sending signal.

The only tricky part is doing the actual set amount of damage. You might be able to use this command:

Code:

$npc->Damage(from, damage, spell_id, attack_skill, avoidable= true, buffslot= -1, iBuffTic= false);

Though I have no idea what settings to put in there.

But, you might also be able to use something simpler like:

Code:

$mob->SetHP($mob->GetHP() - 100);
