Building Your First AQWorlds Bot Script

Your download is almost ready!

Grimoire is one of the most widely used third-party trainers for automated scripting in AdventureQuest Worlds (AQW). Building custom bot scripts allows players to automate repetitive farming routes, turn in quests automatically, and optimize skill usage.

In this guide, we will break down the fundamental commands in Grimoire and step through how to construct a simple automated loop script.

1. Key Grimoire Command Overview

Before building a script, it helps to understand the main command categories inside the Bot Manager tab:

• Map Commands:
  • Join [Map Name - Room Number] (e.g., join battleon-9999)
  • Move to Cell [Cell Name, Pad] (e.g., Cell: Enter, Pad: Spawn)
• Combat Commands:
  • Kill [Monster Name] (Attacks a specific target until defeated)
  • Kill for Items [Monster Name, Item] (Farms a monster until a specified quantity is met)
• Quest Commands:
  • Accept Quest [Quest ID]
  • Complete Quest [Quest ID]
• Item & Inventory Management:
  • Get Drop [Item Name]
  • Bank Item [Item Name]
• Logic / Flow Control:
  • Index / Label (Used for creating custom loop jump points)
  • If / Else Statements (Checks inventory or quest progress to decide the next action)

2. Step-by-Step: Creating a Basic Quest Bot

Let’s walk through a basic template: accepting a quest, joining a map, defeating monsters for items, and turning in the quest.

Step 1: Set Up Combat Skills

1. Open the Skills tab in Grimoire.
2. Select your class skills in order of priority (e.g., 1, 2, 3, 4).
3. Set a skill delay (typically 1000ms–1500ms to prevent disconnects).
4. Save your skill set.

Step 2: Add Script Commands

Navigate to the Bot Manager tab and add the following sequence:

1. Accept Quest: Accept Quest: [Quest ID]
2. Move to Target Area:
   Join Map: [Map Name-100000] (Always use a high room number to avoid crowded rooms)
   Move to Cell: [Cell Name, Pad Name]
3. Farm Requirements: Kill For Item: [Monster Name] -> [Item Name] (Quantity)
4. Complete Quest: Complete Quest: [Quest ID]
5. Collect Reward: Get Drop: [Reward Item Name]

Step 3: Enable Script Looping

Check the "Loop" box at the bottom of the Bot Manager. This ensures the bot restarts from Command 1 once the end of the script list is reached.

3. Best Practices for Smooth Scripting

To keep your script running reliably without crashing or disconnecting:

• Add Delays: Always insert a small delay command (Delay 1000ms) after map jumps or quest turn-ins to give the server time to register your actions.
• Whitelist Drops: Use the Item Whitelist feature to ensure your character automatically picks up necessary items without filling the screen with drop prompts.
• Auto-Rest: Enable auto-rest options in the settings so your character automatically regenerates HP/MP between room transitions.

Conclusion

Building custom scripts in Grimoire comes down to breaking a repetitive in-game task into distinct conditional steps. By combining movement, combat, item checks, and quest commands, you can automate almost any farming process.
