I wanna preface this by saying that i am well aware that the bots sometimes make wierd decisions when playing solo adventures, but what ive experienced lately feels way off to the usual as the AI/bots usually seem rather competant and even challenging at times. Now they basically kill themselves and uses their buff cards on you basically giving you the win.
Been playing solo alot lately and ive noticed that the bots are acting wierd.
In Rastakhans rumble i had consecutive fights where the bots targeted their own shrines with spells. they then proceed to only focus on hitting face, even if you are running Shirvallah’s Vengeance, effectively just committing suicide. Other than that They no longer use the best card for the occassion or calculate the proper order, just throw the highest mana cost out until they run out of cards.
To make it even wierder, if they have healing spells or the priest hero power they will often target the player or the players minions with the heals
Needless to say, the difficulty is a complete joke after this apparant AI “bug”.
I suspect its just a coding problem from the latest update but still thought it was interesting enough to share
I also tested Tombs of Terror and didnt notice too much off, other than the noticably lowered difficulty (This might just have been in my head), but on the final boss of the first run (Plague of murlocs) After i finished the first phase, and his hero power switched out, it instantly removed 100 hp from his health pool. This triggered his final phase shift, after i attacked his face once, and it removed around 100 hp as well finishing the boss fight.
Anyways ive only played Rastakhans rumble and Tombs of Terror so i dont know if this is happening across the board or if it is limited to these two solo runs.
so yeah TL:DR:
- Solo run AI is broken
- kills its own minions and shrines
- heals the player more than itself
- sometimes instant kills the boss during phase transitions
