As I watched the bot train pass, I wondered what they would do with a target they couldn’t kill? Something a human player wouldn’t think to target, but would register to a bot as a valid mob. Something other mobs wouldn’t attack.

Has that been tried before and failed to have an effect?

I thought about this some more, and if I was a botter who realized my bot was stuck on a honey pot, I’d code a timer to ignore any target I couldn’t kill in 10 minutes. So maybe a twin honey pot where one was stealthed while the other was visible and they switched state every 10 seconds. Perma ban any account that attacks the twins for more than an hour.
