[Quest The Plume of Alystros] Provided item has range too small

[click]

Quest can't be done without flying mount because you are provided with Skytalon Molts to call Alystros, but it says: "You must be near to use this object" (or something like that).

INFO:
Core Version: 11364
DB Version: TDB 335.11.38
Quest: http://www.wowhead.com/quest=12456
Skytalon Molts: http://www.wowhead.com/item=37881

The solution would be to increase action range of Skytalon Molts enough to be used from land nearby.

This spell doesn't have a specific range it only requires that you are up to 10 yards near to the TEMP gameobject with the Entry 300208, name of this is "TEMP that you be closer to Alystros the Verdant Keeper"

Need fix!!! too far from the subject

[Skettis]

After a year, the quest it's broken again.

[Star-lion]

its been broken a long time

GO range is too small. You can fly up and land right next to it but using it does nothing.

Using this: http://old.wowhead.com/item=37881
Should provoke: http://old.wowhead.com/npc=27249
Currently the item you use doesn't not provoke him into attacking so he remains a non-interactive object you can't attack.

-- The Plume of Alystros by unknown author

-- Fix spellfocus range
UPDATE `gameobject_template` SET `data1` = 60 WHERE `entry` = 300208;

-- Workaround
DELETE FROM `event_scripts` WHERE `id`=18223;
INSERT INTO `event_scripts` (`id`,`command`,`datalong`,`datalong2`) VALUES
(18223,17,37880,1);

P.S. Is there a way to make the npc attack the player from event script?

[ZxBiohazardZx]

why is the last part a workaround?

[nelegalno]

Because it just gives the player the quest item without sending Alystros to attack him. The player should loot the item once he kills the bird.

P.S. I believe the spellfocus GO location is wrong, it should probably be located near the bones from where the player should use the Skytalon Molts and not where Alystros the Verdant Keeper is and thus won't need it's data1 value changed.

[Aokromes]

GO > id 300000 custom made GO because we can't sniff spell focus, so data1 can be changed.

[ZxBiohazardZx]

Nelgalno try moving it and see if that solves the issue, as for the script, either SAI or event_scripts should be able to spawn that creature, do we have a location?

[nelegalno]

The NPC is already spawned as friendly, once you use the provided item it should become unfriendly and attack you.

P.S. It can only be event script since SAI still doesn't support it and the Skytalon Molts (49566) spell uses: Send Script Event (18223).

[s7an-it]

Yeah, or the spell can be sripted in c++. That event finds nearest npc of that entry, removes flag that prevents combat or being attacked and sends it attacking as nelegalno said. The event_script in SAI seems too far away atm. It's fast to do only must be decided, if it should be used.

[ZxBiohazardZx]

part of the SAI support is written, but its just not useable yet, im not sure what needs to be done in order for it to be added, maybe @Subv can enlighten me on that.

[ZxBiohazardZx]

Closed: issue is ancient, all fixes in here are a mess and a cpp solution might be required. if anyone is up for the job then re-report this issue instead of its curernt rotstate
