AI Logic[]

• An ability will only be used if all of the following conditions have been met:
  • The ability is not on cooldown
  • The target is within the range and angle required by the ability
  • The ability has the highest priority out of all that meet the previous 2 conditions
    • A lower priority number indicates a higher priority.
    • If multiple abilities share the highest priority, one will be chosen at random.
• Global CD is shared with all nearby Nobushi and Kairagi.
