The Hacks and Add-ons arer already here.

I'm not sure how hacks like self-revival/invincibility would even work because as far as I'm aware damage calculations and changes in HP are handled serverside and thus can't be tampered with.

The things they can mess with are things pertaining to movement and action delays, and the latter is particularly problematic when it allows hackers to output unreasonably large amounts of burst by dumping every OGCD ability in their kit on you simultaneously (And I have a hunch I've been subjected to that before...).

They already did that because people were ruining games of Rival Wings by using hacks to teleport the Oppressors above the objectives and bomb them from a height no one could actually reach.

They need to start taking more action, SE has always seemingly been hands off about this stuff.
And they also need to be heavy handed about it. Permanent ban from the game, none of this 3 day suspension period.

Wearing an Ultimate Title: How much did you pay?
Wearing a high Tier PvP Title: What cheats did you use?

Do these people not understand that Cheating, buying or using these "Addons", make these Titles utterly worthless?
I mean, i am Crystal myself and it already feels like nothing anymore because of this crap.

I'm diamond and there are still so many players that don't know what they're doing. yet they somehow do perfect move sometime.
like a NIN Lb'ing 0.1s after I drop below half health from some random attack while nearly max range yet the rest of the game he moves around like a headless chicken and end up with the most death and least dmg.

Kinda the same for me tbh.

I feel like the action bots are probably going to be the most common form of cheating because it's subtle enough to fall into plausible deniability unlike the other more blatant methods like being immune to CC.

Having an add-on that basically screens for "high risk" abilities like DRG's LB and SAM's Chiten and automatically guards or CCs in response is still a ridiculously huge advantage. Obviously not fool-proof, but still probably likely to save you more often then it gets you killed.
