I was playing a bot game with my level 8 mate, and I happened to press tab to check his build, and noticed...the bots still carry green wards? It's not a detrimental bug, if anything it made me chuckle, but I figured I'd bring this up to the devs. Thanks guys.

They pretty much remade it into item 3748 but better and healthier.

Hey Gladiir,

Thanks for the report! We're aware of this particular issue. :]

Could you maybe give the intermediate bots the new masteries? Or make hard bots with them?

(probably not the right place to post/ask this but might as well mention it since the thread is talking about AI bots)

I'm actually not sure what the plan is, as this isn't my area of expertise. (I actually looked this up in the database to see if it was a know issue. :x) However, I'd be happy to pass the feedback along!

The bots have always don this, being able to purchase items that no longer exist. While some of the items may have been fixed by now (haven't done bots in a while) and I can guess why they can do it, will the other items that cannot be purchased by us be removed from the bots too?

I don't know if it's been fixed yet, but I played an Intermediate AI game on the first day the patch came out and none of the AI had the new Keystone Masteries. Either it was a glitch an they just weren't visible, or they actually weren't updated. I'm guessing it's the latter, but I'm not positive.

I remember the old AI supposedly did use Masteries/Runes, but these new ones are not doing it. I don't play many AI games anymore, but they are a decent place for learning how a champion's kit works. While the AI for this game is never going to be perfect, it should at least have the same basic aspects as a normal PVP match.

... is that the reason behind the removal? The fact that the ward placement AI has been broken for months?

Maybe make bots place pink wards now and then to help newer players learn about wards in a more direct way

I agree with this assessment and would add my own. Make the bots use the green wards that they buy for vision instead of having to take it away (remember the never-fixed bug where bots could see into bushes). This will make them more like the humans they try to beat.

im not trying to be mean but honestly u guys seem to be aware of a lot of issues. . .when do u plan to fix these issues you seem to know all about?

It's an honest question.

It depends on the severity of the issue. Based on that, we prioritize issues. For example, gameplay impacting issues are a much higher priority than something like clipping (i.e.cloth clipping through x champions's leg).

I do not mind bots being able to buy old items. I would love to see some mixed bot builds lol

TIL: when bots buy green wards it's called "clipping."

pretty sure twisted bots still get the deathfire item on twisted, just accept the fact that riot probably will acknowledge but will not fix the problem.

Funny thing is is that they always bought them but never used them

They'll drop them when you enter brush in front of them.. at least, they used to.
