Mercenaries

[Armm]

Update-

Everyone on server that i could talk to had healer mercs chain buffing. i personally saw them(mercs) chain buffing bulwark of vie on themselves, and after i jumped my level up they started chain casting symbols on themselves. The point being is they only seem to chain cast buffs on self. Perhaps that helps. I have disabled them from buffing for now till it gets squared away.

Tank and melee mercs sitting is fairly important early on because people use the tank merc to duo with and since most arent healers, rest regen in between fights is important to them. Its quicker in the early levels to let a merc tank plow through stuff rather than try to tank something and have a merc healing you.


To add more detail on the multisave. I am not sure what triggers it for sure yet, seems to involve suspending/unsuspending. In database there are no DUPLICATE mercs that are exactly the same name. There are just multiple mercs with different names for ONE pc.

I have fixed this bug specifically, going to add it to my pull request. Basically we added the merc to the group too many times along with not creating the group correctly, there's also some issues with suspending the mercenary artificially through group merging and manually kicking the mercenary that I resolved.

As for the AI, I will take a look at that next.

edit: AI issue seems to be maybe related to having wrong merc spells data. The buffs they cast need to be set to type buff, or 8. Should work in its current form heh.
