Oculus build for the AI?

 

I am working on an AI mod to get the computer using good builds, favor items, and all other items.   I've pulled a build for each AI from the strategy compilation thread and came up with one for demon assassin as a played a tournament or two with him.

 

I havn't tried the oculus before, can someone post a decent build for him?   Right now the AI select his skills on a weighted random basis, so I think he is very far from effective with that.

 

I have added the ability to customize AI favor selection by build (can be one item or random out of a list of favor items), so include that as well.

 

I can do items by demigod (that is built in), but most demigods use the same stuff anyway, so the global item weights are used.  If oculus should use something outside the common set let me know and he can get a bonus to that item.

 

Thanks all.

I've only tried this in single player, so take this with a grain of salt:

  1. Chain lightning
  2. Blast off
  3. King of the minotaurs
  4. Chain lightning
  5. Blast off
  6. King of the Minotaurs
  7. Chain lightning
  8. Blast off
  9. King off the minotaurs
  10. Chain lightning
  11. Blast off
  12. Lightning Blast
  13. Lightning Blast
  14. Lightning blast
  15. Electrocution
  16. Morale
  17. Morale
  18. Morale
  19. Morale
  20. Morale

Start with Monks and BotF. Get the other idols asap after a few mana and health items.

I disagree. With a full army of higher level minions and a +minion attack speed item the proc chance is reasonably high. Besides, none of his other skills at that level are any more useful, except brain storm, but I doubt the AI would be able to use it effectively.

Also, I realized I forgot Electrocution.

NVM, got confused for a minute. I like this build for the AI... probably not the best for a real player, but will work with the AIs limited decisions.

Thanks for the build.  Even if its not the best it is much better than what the random skill selector puts together.   I gave this build the blood of the fallen achievement item.

 

Added to version .07 of my skirmish AI mod: http://forums.demigodthegame.com/369930

 

If anyone has other builds for any of the demigod's they would like to see the AI use post in that thread and I will probably add them.  For this version each demigod has one custom build defined and i'd like to get that to 2-3 for each.
