Guild Wars 2

This technically doesn’t go under the “bug” sub-forums, so I have no idea where else to put it but here. My apologies if this is also the wrong spot to ask.

Has anybody else noticed bots spawning on top of resource nodes, gathering them immediately, and then either teleporting away or despawning the second they’re done? I’ve been away from GW2 for about a month now, and just came back. Before I left, I never noticed a single instance of this. Today, I saw this happen three times in as many hours.

Usually I’d just report them and be on my way without going on the forums at all. The problem is that by the time I even notice what they’re doing, they despawn too quickly to get a report off. How would other people go about trying to report them?

So…am I going crazy with a bad internet connection, or this a new development? For that matter, has this been reported multiple times already?

Thanks for any replies!

yes, lots of threads about this already.

it’s new and hard to report (they zoom underneath the surface then pop up at nodes).

Thanks for the quick response. Guess I’ll just try and have faster reflexes.

I got a good solution.

Why don’t you pick a nice well hidden spot, and watch the same ori node for about 2 hours (even 4, but 2 is a good start)
And pay close attention to whoever appears on top of it the BAM you got the kitten.
I got a friend that does this every day for 5 hours, he gets great satisfaction from reporting, he even neglected his entire game progress for it.

Very fulfilling.

sometimes i log out where are nods and when i log in i just mine them and log out have u think ever about that :P

Try right-clicking on their name and quickly selecting Whisper. I think you can report somebody from their name in the chat bar too.
