So I was levelling my necro in Straights and I noticed something very odd. As I was standing next to a mining node, all of the sudden 4 people arrived out of nowhere, mined the nodes all simultaneously, then disappeared as if they had all mapped out together in unison.

I watched for a few moments, then another came along just a solo person and it happened again.

A few seconds later, two more.

And so on and so forth for about 3 minutes. No warning or anything. No running animations up to the node itself, just appearing out of nothing. All random classes, though primarily they were all humans. Under no other in game circumstances does this happen to me. During dragon events, I can be at max draw with max settings, and I can see quite a large gathering of people. I do not think it has anything to do with graphics culling or anything like that, or else I’d be experiencing the problem in other areas of the game.

I am running Windows 7, AMD FX 6300 6 core processor, on a Nvidia GTX 650 Ti. 8g RAM.

Is it my specs? I suspect its some sort of mass botting and this is how it manifests on my screen? However, I can only offer information from my own end of things. Can anyone clue me in on this? So far, I’ve only witnessed this in SoD. Not in anywhere else considered a popular farming zone.

For the Toast!

Those are teleport bots. Been around for ages. Best thing you can do is report them.
