1. Spark of Life icon is 'fallenshield.png' not 'spark_of_life' -
fixed BUFF_PRIORITY key so buff detection works correctly
2. Mana/spirit items moved to AFTER buffs in all 3 tiers -
was drinking mana potions on turn 2 before buffs were cast
3. Priority order: Health items -> Cure -> Buffs -> Mana items ->
Skills -> Spirit Stance -> Damage spells -> Channeling -> Attack
Channeling works: proc on mana-costing spell -> next spell costs 1 MP
and is 50% stronger/longer. The charge lasts 5 ticks (15 with Mystic
Gem) then wears off and is wasted.
Previously the script would basic attack with channeling charged,
wasting the bonus. Now:
- If channeling is active and nothing more urgent, still cast a buff
(refresh anything under 10 turns) or a cheap damage spell
- Never basic attack while channeling is charged
- Novice/Adept/Veteran all have this protection
Channeling wiki fix:
- Procs randomly on any mana-costing spell
- Proc chance = spell_cost / (base_mana * 1.2)
- Higher cost = higher chance (Regen/Absorb at 17 MP = ~6%)
- Cannot re-proc while already channeling
- Duration: 5 ticks (15 with Mystic Gem)
- Effect: next spell costs 1 MP, 50% stronger/longer
Kickstart now only refreshes expiring buffs (missing or < 5 turns)
with decent-cost spells (Regen/Absorb). No more cheap attack spells
at 4 MP = 1.4% proc chance — that was a waste of MP.
Defaults reverted to full-conservative values since the 'mp-focused'
win was based on wrong channeling assumptions.
Shadow Veil buff icon is stored as 'shadowveil' (from img src filename,
no underscore). Priority list now uses the correct key. minTurns=3
prevents recasting while still active. Also moved to last priority
position — only cast when MP is plentiful.
At 20% SP (~10 SP = 10 rounds of sustain), the player would toggle on
during a Grindfest round, consume SP quickly, toggle off when SP < 3%,
then 3 turns later the cooldown expires and OC is back to 60+ -> toggle
on again. Raising the threshold to 40% means ~20 rounds of sustained
Spirit Stance, making the engagement meaningful and rarely cycling.
Spirit Stance costs 1 SP + 10% OC per round (wiki). Previously toggled
on at 10% SP which meant ~5 rounds of sustain, often running out
immediately. Now requires 20% SP (~10 rounds sustain) to toggle on.
3-turn cooldown still prevents rapid flip-flopping between states.
Spirit stance was toggling on/off every turn because conditions (OC >= 60,
SP > 10%) would be met immediately after toggling off. Added a 3-turn
cooldown via STATE._spiritCooldown that blocks re-toggling until it
expires. Prevents wasted turns on spirit stance spam.
