Miner's Transmute Script Guide

[sf_hope]

Just wanted to write down for other peeps who are on the new side of the game how to use a miner team to farm ORE while still having them gain the essence from monsters, won't use transmute on miniboss's or higher and won't use transmute on janitor as both of these cases the enemy is immune to it.

1 Enemy: Is Ore - PIckaxe
2 Enemy: Has Essence - Strongest Attack
3 Enemy: Rank > Miniboss - Strongest Attack
4 Enemy: Team Alive != 1 - Strongest Attack
5 Enemy: Rank = Norm - Transmute
6 Enemy: Team Alive = 1 - Strongest Attack
7 Enemy: Weakest - Strongest Attack

A team of miner's will obviously hit ores first, if no ores then essence enemies, if none of those then they check to see if it's a mini-boss or higher, if not then they check to see if team doesn't = 1, if not then they will attack the enemies, once the enemy team is down to 1...the miner will transmute it to ORE (since you can only transmute once per battle, you want to do it on the last enemy) if the enemy doesn't = NORM (janitor's) then they skip the transmute and go to Team Alive or Weakest...probably only need step 6 OR 7 not both, but kept both in there anyways
Janitor is NOT considered a NORM enemy, but also not considered a miniboss or higher either.

You could just take the 3rd and 6th line out and it wouldn't change the script at all.

1 Enemy : is ore - Pickaxe -> ore gets pickaxed first
2 Enemy : has essence - default / strongest attack -> essence enemy gets killed even if it's alone
3 Enemy : team alive > 1 - default / strongest attack -> kills everything until only 1 enemy left
4 Enemy : rank = normal - Transmute -> transmutes the last normal enemy and ONLY normal
5 Enemy : weakest - default / strongest attack -> only mini/boss and janitor left here so attack

I can't remember if miner's "strongest attack" is pickaxe if you don't have gear abilities to use instead. If it is and you aren't running ability gear you need default attack in the lines for default / strongest attack to avoid pickaxing instead of doing damage.

Note, in this script, janitors, minibosses and bosses won't ever get touched by anything until 5th line unless they have essence which kills them with 2nd line. This means none of them get transmute spammed.

I tried that..if you take 3rd line out...they constantly try to transmute the minibosses..which means you'll never go past the first miniboss level

Then you messed something up somewhere.

Your 3rd line, as you wrote it, won't interact with minibosses at all. If the enemy is a miniboss, then "enemy : rank > miniboss - strongest attack" will ignore minibosses and let them pass through to lower lines of your script.

When I wrote my miner script 100% identical to your script and took out the 3rd line, I ran perfectly fine through several minibosses without ever having my miners trying to transmute a miniboss even once let alone constantly.

It works fine either way, but your script has extra useless lines that accomplish absolutely nothing. Not really "Miner's Transmute Script Guide" worthy.

Mine is set to:

1 Enemy : Has Essence, Strongest attack
2 Enemy : Rank != Norm, Strongest single-target attack
3 Enemy : Is Ore, Pickaxe
4 Enemy : Team Alive > 1, Default attack
5 Enemy : Team Alive = 1, Transmute

These issues would be resolved with "AND/OR" clauses...please and clauses
