[DiscordArchive] SAI lacks support, that's a fact, but how deep can SAI get as in scripting complicated bosses?

this is not the point of this discussion. the thing is that bosses use certain instance script mechanics which are automated by BossAI. smartAI does not handle these, so consequently in order to properly support and handle bosses, we would have to add new smart actions

I think you coined it best here. Everything is relative, using the correct tool for the job is much better than trying to force a tool to be something other than what it is

I don't think adding *more* complexity and/or features to SAI is a good solution, you just end up bloating it beyond what it *should* be used for

sometimes I am left perplexed by how people think SAI was written in stone by Moses centuries ago and cannot be modified at all. SAI implementation is in C++, anything you can do in a C++ script can be done in SAI, as long as one implements it

fun fact: SAI has a better automatic spell retry handling than C++ scripts out of the box

I never said you can't improve it but it's just not the right tool

alas, imagine having to implement Sylvanas based on SAI alone

my mind can't grasp how many new actions you'd require JUST for that single boss, which by the way, they wouldn't be generic, they're counter specific

also, it's not as easy to debug during development time for complex boss fights
