    Ill never get why they dont just go out and buy gil/gear and follow all the traces for some time... And maybe get Paypal/whatever to freeze these accounts...

    Is anyone starting Eureka for the first time going to be affected by the bots?

    Just wondering as I'm interested in getting into it but probably not if they adversely affect the Eureka experience.

    I’ve recently guided a fresh Eurekan newbie from lv1 to clearing BA. All I did was prepping a verni cloak for them and tell the dos and don’ts in the zone. The rest (Exploration, Prepping, Grinding) was their own earned hard work.

    At its worst, the bots will just make your spawned NMs scaled to the amount of players in the instance: they will have more HP. It will start becoming an issue if you’re not grouping up with other bunch however.

    Otherwise it’s not impossible. If you’re trying to do bunnies then that might not be worthy of your time.

    Depends on your time playing.
    On prime time you have about 30 other real player who do fates.
    So enough that the additional HP caused by the bots does not have to much of a impact.

    When you play in other times and you try to spawn and kill fates alone.... That it is extremely difficult.
    Killing a fate alone in a empty instance is easy.
    Killing a fate alone that scales to 10ppl because of bunny fate bots becomes difficult and takes a lot longer.

    But, you don't have these bots on the very first Island.
    So you can start eureka without a problem.

    And another ban wave that did nothing against the Eureka Bots.

    They'll just be bottle necked by wherever the bots are /s

    Veteran healers don't care if we need to heal, but right now we don't. We want interesting things to do during the downtime other than a 30s dot and a single filler spell that hasn't changed from lvl 4 to lvl 90.
    Dead DPS do no DPS. Raised DPS do 25/50% lower DPS. Do the mechanics and don't stand in bad stuff.
    Other games expect basic competence, FFXIV is pleasantly surprised by it. Other games have toxic elitism. FFXIV has toxic casualism.[/LIST]

    Bots that usually farm bunny fates decided to kill some mobs on Primal. Quite odd to see. All the bots follow the BRD which looks like a real player, the BRD tags the enemies then the bots attack and kill

    You guys are making me too scared to even open up the zones on the character I have finally gotten to a level and point in the MSQ where she can. I don't want to get picked up in a bot sweep by accident. Is there any reason I need to open it?

    Don't worry.
    SE will not accidently Ban normal player.

    You still can enter and finish all 4 Eureka island.
    But you should do it during prime time when it is more active with real player's. It is also more fun to do with others.
