I died to a Hydra?

[M3RK]

Hey Guys,

So last night I set up one of my $$ EK's to bot in Dworcs, I always give my guy a half hour or so to see if their are any obvious issues with the bot set up, then I set and forget. When I woke up this morning, my account had been killed by a Hydra (wtf?) The nearest Hydra spawn is far north east PH, so how is this possible?

I took a look at my bot, seems like it was depositing and purchasing fine (creature items in depot, my GP was +15k from when I left off...) what could have caused this to happen?

I noticed when I reloaded my game this morning to buy blessings that the client was super laggy, I went into a PZ, x'd the browser, re-opened and didn't inject and all the lag was gone.

For the record, I was using Neant's Dworc script.

Sure it was not a raid or something?

You've been roped and pushed to hydra ; ) Happened to me many times at dworcs and coryms.

Does it also spawn with elephants and such? Also, how do you safeguard against this? Add more creatures to targeting and hope for the best? I'm pretty sure if a Hydra was added to my list, I would have been able to kill it. I definitely had enough supplies / skills to make that happen if I also included exori as a spell...

Where can I find a list of the various raids in different cities so I know what to add to my bot incase one ever spawns simultaneously with me hunting.

To avoid you would have to take a route that doesn't pass the raid fields.

To know all raids exactly you would have to visit them, afaik no wiki provides exact info and they are not even updated with latest raids.

For this situation, as you say u can kill it, then you would just need anti paralyze and run the hell out of there, targeting would not be such a good idea as more creatures spawn.

Add to targeting, done!

Honestly, I'm not an expert scripter for this bot, but perhaps this is an idea for Neant? If it was a raid spawn that killed me, it's more likely then not killing everyone else who uses this Dworc script in particular (If they bot there often enough) would be worth considering revising. I know this isn't one of his paid ones, but it is a popular script. (I know, because I often run into others on my server using the same exact script and screwing the exp / loot)
