[Partially Solved] Hallow's End Quest help

I’ve been trying to work a solution for Hallow’s End quests Fire Brigade Practice (Quest IDs 11360, 11439, 11440) and Fire Training (IDs 111361, 11449, 11450). The goal is to put out fires on the wickerman but it looks like the same mechanism could also be used for the headless horseman event as well.

I think I found the right fire aura spells, id 43184 and 42971 (one if for the base and the other is at shoulder height). I’m using a simple sai script to apply the auras on invisibly horseman fire mobs (creature entry 23537) that sit inside each wickerman gameobjects. This part seems to work.

The issue I’m having is I can’t determine how to remove the aura. I can’t tell if the issue is with the Horseman Fire mob (being unselectable) or with the water bucket item spell not being accurately supported…or both. Originally I was trying to use a Spell Hit script but nothing seemed to work. There also seems to be another issue with the buckets because if another player is select the bucket passing the bucket to that person instead of splashing on the ground.

Can any one think of a similar quest that is already scripted I can use as a model? (so a quest using an item with an area effect spell used on a mob

I think I worked it out. There were some issues with the water bucket item template. It seem whichever spell in Spell_id1 is the only spell that gets triggered on use. I’ll repost the complete script this weekend once it piece in the quest credit info, if anyone is interested

Yes that would be great, Thank you :slight_smile:

Here is what I have so far. The SAI is probably more elaborate than necessary but I was trying to go on memory. I had to update the water bucket item_template, as I mentioned only the spell in the first position works visually. The update to the creature_template is to keep them from flagging the player into combat when hit with that bucket splash spell (42114).

Currently the only issue I’m having is that some of the creatures will flag the player in combat when hit with spell 42114, but not all of them…I think something is not refreshing properly. Feel free to tear this up…it’s been awhile since I scripted anything.
