Hopes for Artoo AI ability priorities

Improvise - use on cooldown under all circumstances.

Smoke Screen - always use on a toon with the "tank" tag

Electroshock - use on burning targets first


My fear is Smoke screen will be prioritized and used on squishies:(
  • Luckily (or not) smoke screen will be on a random ally. I don't think they have ever used a specific tag for abilities like that. Dame goes for electroshock.

    (Side note if they start to, all resistance toons should target exposed first)

    They may have weighted chances by tag. I recall someone posting about AI targeting chances for ability block or something being random, but with higher weights being given to support tags than other tags.
  • It seems to me like Plo's ship always targets tankier units to grant taunt.

    That's probably purely based on health/protection, NOT a specific tag. Likely R2's would do similarly.

    Same with Scimitar retribution

    If R2's smoke screen follows this logic *and* uses his burn off cool down, watch out.
