Boss & Zariche Hunting Mechanism in L2M Auto Key
A detailed walkthrough of every setting in the “Other” tab, and how the bot opens the map, scans, and teleports to fight Boss/Zariche — even when you enable both at the same time.
Overview
The “Other” tab lets you enable two independent features: Boss Hunting and Zariche Hunting. Once enabled, the bot periodically opens the map, scans the list of monsters currently present in the area, and teleports to fight whenever it finds a target matching your configuration.
What Each Boss Setting Means
- Check boss every … seconds — how often the bot opens the map to scan for boss.
- Go back after lost radar (s) — after teleporting and having already detected a monster on radar, if radar is lost for this many seconds (boss died/despawned), the character returns to town automatically.
- After teleport, fight boss for … s, then press Low HP Priority 1 button — if teleported but radar never detects a monster, the bot waits this long then returns to town (treated as a timeout).
- Boss maps — pick specific maps (Gludio, Dion, Giran, Oren, Aden) to scan only there; if none are selected, the bot scans the “ALL” tab.
- Boss diamond maps — mark which maps require confirming the teleport with diamonds (a different confirm popup than the normal one).
- Exclude boss — comma-separated boss names to skip, even if they're detected on radar.
- Attack all (F5+F6) after teleport — after teleporting to boss/Zariche, auto-press R → F5 → F6 to start combat immediately.
- Screenshot at Boss/Zariche location — saves a screenshot every 10s to
Training/boss_zarichefor AI training data; doesn't affect hunting logic.
When Only One Is Enabled
Boss (or Zariche) runs fully independently on its own configured interval: when due → open map → check the relevant tab → teleport if found, otherwise close the map and wait for the next cycle.
When Both Boss and Zariche Are Enabled
- Shared frequency = the smaller of the two intervals. E.g. Boss 30s + Zariche 60s → the bot checks both every 30s (Zariche's own 60s mark is no longer used on its own).
- When due: the map is opened only once → the Boss tab is checked first → if nothing is found, the bot switches straight to the Zariche tab without reopening the map → the map is closed only if neither is found.
- While one side is actively away hunting (has the “turn”), the other side is fully paused: it won't press the return key, won't attack, and won't re-check the map — preventing both mechanisms from fighting for control of the character at the same time.
- After a hunt ends (character returns to town), there's a fixed 60-second cooldown before the system checks the map again.
Quick Q&A
What happens if I only enable Boss hunting, not Zariche?
Boss runs fully independently on its own configured interval: when due, it opens the map, checks the Boss tab, teleports if found, otherwise closes the map and waits for the next cycle. Zariche is never checked.
If both are enabled, is the Zariche interval still used?
Yes, but only when it's smaller than the Boss interval. When both are enabled, the bot always uses the smaller of the two as the shared check frequency for both Boss and Zariche.
While fighting Boss, can Zariche's logic jump in and interfere?
No. While one side is actively away hunting (has the "turn"), the other side is fully paused — it won't press the return key and won't attack on its own, preventing both mechanisms from fighting for control of the character at the same time.
After returning to town, how soon can the bot check again?
There's a fixed 60-second cooldown after every hunt (whether it ended because the target ran out or because radar was lost for too long) before the system opens the map to check again.

Understanding the turn-taking and single-session check mechanism will help you pick sane intervals, without worrying about Boss and Zariche “fighting” over your character. Good luck hunting those rare drops! ⚔️
