There are two healing bots in Primal Server Group that have been playing since day 1, reported hundreds if not thousands of times and yet this morning I get queued into matches with them 3 out of 4 matches.
It seems that SE doesn't care as long as someone is paying a subscription they can do whatever they want with their account, cheating, exploiting, botting.

I won't ask for the name, but what specific actions are tipping you off that it's a bot? Or the race/gender? If we spot it too maybe we can all send more reports too to try to get them to take care of it. That's terrible sounding.

so, I run Titan Brutal I did that for two days in row around 8h a day to try and get what I need for my relic, that means that more or less I entered the DF each 15mn more or less, for a total run of around 107, that means I am a bot ???

what exactly makes you think they're bots?
You sure they're not just good healers and well... better than you? That is the nature of PVP after all. -

Probalby recasting the same protection spells over and over even after the match started. Happened to me this weekend. Reminded me of WoW. One of the reasons I left WoW.

01-09-2014, 12:38 AMThreelegsPretty much this, they just standing in the starting area and recast the same spell over and over. Basically all the players in Primal Group now know and recognize both these healers and give up as soon as they zone in and see they are on their team. Their healing usually amounts to around 1k and if you run out of the starting area to fight you move out of range of them.Quote:

yes well that certainly changes things. i assume they're just doing it to coast on the reward for losing then yes? that's kinda lame. -

what is the point of Botting in PvP.....

Having that busy status symbol has become pretty incriminating. Every bot I have come across has that busy symbol to avoid getting tells and whatnot.
But yes, others and myself have come across those two and they're even in the same fc. I've done my part of reporting them because its really aggravating to anyone to end up with these players. -

I don't think these reports go anywhere. The cookie cutter messages you receive when you report a player are quite hilarious too. I think it is only the forums where reports are reviewed to punish bad posters on here.

01-09-2014, 02:07 AMTupsiRead the PvP forums - Watch some videos on youtube/twitch, it's fairly obvious there's PvP bots (and hacks.)Quote:

Since when SE take action against BOTS? Bots farming report, no action taken, Bots in dungeon, no action taken, Bots in PVP, no action taken...........but dont swear in /shout a GM will come right away and take you to jail.

If nothing has been done about them yet, it likely never will. He'll actually reply sometimes if you talk to him, if only to give you a "umad" response.Quote:

Happy fun time edit: If you look him (the botter in the videos) up on the lodestone, he has the achieve for winning 100 matches, but also the one for being in over 1000 of them.
You'll be suspended or worse if you MPK the exp/farm bots.Quote:

That sounds about right, 3-4 weeks for resolutions from the GM team
