Not if it doesn't have some aoe attacks.... if it just attacks the specified player it would be fine

Would be better if it could only attack players with AFK Status on and like you said, no AOE attacks.

1000 shards takes 10 minutes to farm, plus if you grind them on 50 nodes you can get a piesteskin, toadskin or boarskin map while you are getting them.

1000 shards in 10 min is 2.4 seconds a node. Im going to say that pretty impossible even if you add the respective ward thats like 3.1 seconds a node.

OK 8 miner/botanist retainers, 60 shards each/40 minutes. If I had stockpiles of the ingredients, I could still get shards fast enough to keep up with making relish.

People are vastly overestimating how many shards you can bring in via mining, botany, or retainers.

That's 1.6 shards on average every 1 second. Even if you use proper cooldowns and chug cordial on cooldown, you won't get anywhere even remotely close to that many.

This is the closest thing so far. Over the course of a 24 hour period, a single retainer can bring in 2160 shards if you send them out the split second they get back. If you have 4 mining/botany retainers for some reason, that would be 2160 in 6 hours, or 8640 per day. That's a lot of shards, but it means really being on the ball with sending them out, too.

All of this can be easily solved by only allowing accounts to have a max of 8 characters instead of 40. Who has time other than botters, rmt, and possible sentient life to lvl 40 characters just so they can sub and mule and stuff.

I don't know about you guys but 5 rmt sellers restricted to 8 characters per account sounds a lot better than 5 rmt sellers with 40 characters to their account. This applies to botting too.
