Hi everyone,
I have a server based on the VIP GOLD version 15.0 - [FUN / SOLO VIP Version] - Cataclysm 4.3.4 Repack and I have kept active the configurations that allow you to use bots.

The problem is that some of these npcbots (such as the hunter or the rogue) make an exaggerated DPS and their primary source of damage is the auto attack. With the hunter it feels like playing Call of Duty instead of wow XD
Obviously all this DPS generates an amount of threat that is absolutely impossible to manage !!
About this problem my two questions are:
1) what can i do to solve this issue?
2) there would be a way to ensure that the threat generated by the bots is null or at least reduced? I had thought about the possibility of applying an aura to the character_template of the npcbot, perhaps something based on a paladin hand of salvation always active. What do you think?

Thanks so much for your help :)

1. The NPC bots have a configuration in the worldserver.config that would allow you to reduce their overall damage output, that would be one method of reducing their damage output.
# NpcBot.Mult.Damage.Melee
# NpcBot.Mult.Damage.Spell
# NpcBot.Mult.Healing
# Description: Multipliers for bots' damage and healing. Allows to balance bots vs players.
# Minimum: 0.1
# Maximum: 10.0
# Default: 1.0

NpcBot.Mult.Damage.Melee = 1.0
NpcBot.Mult.Damage.Spell = 1.0
NpcBot.Mult.Healing = 1.0
2. As far as threat generation goes for bots, unfortunately the only way you'd be able to reduce or get rid of their threat would be to add an additional threat generation spell to yourself, or whichever bot you wish to have tanking priority..
