Guild Wars 2

Ive seen lots of bots lately that auto log out when approached. I know you were not able to solve the problems with the old bots, so I dont really believe you will be able to do something about this, but just letting you know. Since they log out immediatly, they cannot be reported.

Maybe they tele, I wonder if they are actually logging and how long before they log back in bc they’d be in the same spot.

they are logging out, ive seen at least 5 bots “disappear” today. two of them were mining before they disapeared. all in low level areas.

It seems as if you did not understand what Wooboost wrote (because he only used half the word). He meant “Maybe they teleported”. Gathering bots usually do that after gathering one node. And there is no visual difference between a character disappearing because it logged out, and disappearing because it teleported away to another material node somewhere else on the map. So the character disappearing is not really an indication for logging out, but standard gathering bot behaviour.

Yea sorry, I’m lazy and use my phone for the forums.

Yeah they use a teleport hax from node to node. Additionally I’ve noticed lately 1. you can’t target them any longer (most of them), like they are not there – and 2. I start getting lag spikes. In fact when I start getting a lot of lag spikes in a zone, this is when I often see them around.

If you can remember the bots name, you can add them in your “Contacts” panel, which will then tell you if they are actually still in the same map (if it’s a gathering bot, it will be). You can then report them from the contacts panel.

This game needs a major bot hunting team.
So far all I can say:
1. If a bot is clickable, click on them, add to friends, report from there and then block.
2. If a bot is not clickable, take a screenshot, go to your screenshot folder, look at their name, re-type the name in the add to contacts thing, proceed to report from there.

Hi,

As Mirta stated and if you can do it , please report the bots via the ingame report tool. If you don’t have the time to do that, the best would be to take a screenshot and send it later to our Customer Support team who will take actions if necessary.

Thanks for your help!
