While leveling my first character to level 80, in the first month of this game, I’ve easily seen and reported dozens upon dozens of botters. I’m sure we’ve all seen the type, they teleport around a particular area and attack anything on sight, and they’re there for WEEKS on end. Certain bot names have stuck in my head even more than a month after I’ve reported them, occasionally I’ll /whisper them to see if they’re online, and they always are.

Anyways, I made a new character, got up to level 26 already. First thing I see when I enter Kessex Hills (at the Triskellion Vale Farm) is literally TEN hunter bots with dual hand axes, running around in a gigantic circle at the farm killing monsters over and over and over and over, they are all doing the identical attacks and they run along the exact same path. I took the time to report every single one them, but what worries me is tomorrow when I recheck the farm, they will all be there. And in 3 days I’ll do the same, and they’ll still be there. And in 1 week, they’ll still be there. These guys are farming crafting materials and likely fencing the items to another account so even if they are banned, they’re still coming out ahead. At the same time this was going on, my friend who was leveling another character as well, and is in the 40’s, says on vent “I just ran across like 10 bots here as well”.

This is getting out of hand, and determining whether a reported individual is a bot can be figured out in literally 5 seconds.

Just venting, but it seems like it’s out of control.
