Guild Wars 2

As a creator of the first quality and some of the most sophisticated bots in Asheron’s Call 1, I like botting when it is allowed by the terms of service. But since botting is not allowed in GW2, I will not do it. I just expect Anet to ban bots though so I don’t tantalizingly watch them do something I could do if I wanted.

It seems to be the norm for every MMORPG to ban bots nowadays.
I look forward to when my programming plate is empty to make my own MMORPG involving robots. You code robots to go scavenge for resources for you, and then you build better robots to go further. You can write your own code for the bots, or you can find code scraps here and there in drops or terminals.

There is a certain allure to watching cetain bots. They’re like the ultimate screen saver too. You watch them explore the map, and see what they’ll get into, or who they’ll PK. As bots got more and more powerful, they could wander further out to distant zones. There is fun in running bots past,“I’m getting free power.”

But since bots are illegal(which I agree with), I think Anet is doing a good job banning them since November. They just should keep it up, and we should keep up reporting them.

But man… If someone would just make a MMORPG designed FOR botting with PVP aspects, it could be good, real good. PVP + Bots gives a way for a live player to annihilate and loot bad AI.

Played for hundreds of hours since level 80. I only ever got one drop that is an upgrade from what I can buy in TP, and I have 100% mf. I found it for beating the game on the airship.

Anyone have a link to the october dev post where they said Magic Find isn’t working as intended?

Is magic find bugged that it doesn’t actually help find rares and exotics?

Also does magic find have diminishing returns?

Hello,

I’m wondering if I should infuse a Golden Lotus amulet with a Gilded or Magical infusion.

What do you think? I fight lots of monsters and I like magic find more than actual stats.

Does anyone have the charts on what magic find does? Is it a linear gain, or is it diminishing returns?

Does magic find help find lodestones?

I think if magic find has diminishing returns, it would be better to go Gilded, but if it increases incrementally, finding lodestones more often with Magical would net more gold than a Gilded would.

Any help?
