The amount of bots teleporting around is absolutely unbelievable

I am a bot-spotting baby.
What about their movements is so distinguishable?
How do you know those players were bots?

I, too, would like to know. I just assume, the crafters at least, are just quick synthing 99 pieces all the time.

A typical gil farming bot does not resort to conventional movement and just teleports from place to place by hacking. They also have gibberish keyboard mash names most of the time.

The standard bots that don't hack are still rather noticeable from their "point A to point B" style of movement that has them zig-zagging all over the place instead of making gradual turns like a normal player would. In flight-enabled zones, you'll also never see them take flight out of a run and will always just mount up, pause a moment, then jump in place before they suddenly veer off in the direction of their next destination. They stand out like a sore thumb in the presence of actual players, such as in the Diadem.

It can be. It can also be a result of players using the legacy camera version of movement. Not all people who make sharp turns are bots. lol
