| '''Expanded AI''' is a custom combat intelligence system that makes monsters behave in a significantly more dynamic and reactive way during combat. Instead of following fixed attack patterns, monsters with Expanded AI evaluate the situation in real time and respond accordingly.

| == What changes in combat ==
| |
| | |
| Monsters with Expanded AI can:
| |
| | |
| * '''React to player tactics''' — for example, a monster may try to avoid or counter specific skills, reposition in response to area-of-effect threats, or break out of defensive setups.
| |
| * '''Adapt to the party's composition''' — different player classes may draw different responses from the same monster. Healing classes, ranged attackers, and frontline fighters may each be handled differently.
| |
| * '''Support and coordinate with allies''' — monsters can heal, buff, or assist nearby allied monsters during a fight, creating more coordinated group encounters.
| |
| * '''Change behavior based on health''' — many monsters shift to a different combat phase when they drop below certain HP thresholds, changing their skill usage or aggression level mid-fight.
| |
| * '''Scale with difficulty''' — on Heroic and Mythic difficulty, monsters become more aggressive, use their skills more precisely, and react faster than on Normal.
| |
| | |
| == Where it is applied ==
| |
| | |
| Expanded AI is currently active on monsters in '''open-world encounters''' and '''instance content'''. The system is designed to grow over time — future updates will extend it to '''pets''' and '''summons''', including companions from classes such as Beast Master Hunters.
