All of Marilith's Sprouts are bots

Cool. Good for you. Other people need gil.

No they don't. Every economy needs peasants.

Are these free trial or paid accounts? If it's free trial, what's the point of botting since you can't pass your ill-gotten gains to paid accounts anyway unless there's a loophole I'm unaware of?

If these are paid accounts, let's all report them en masse so they are banned which hurt the botters' bottomline.

The game hands out gil like crazy. Its actually insane how much gil you can generate in a week not from player interactions.


We have no gil sinks, so inflation is insane.

This.

Out of boredom i bought every minion and mount i didn't own on the marketboard and barely made a dent into the gil pile that just stacks up over time.

The amount of junk and small effortless activities like Eureka bunny fates that just shower you with Gil is laughable.

I think the average Eureka Pyros gil/h is something close to 500k -> 1m depending on luck, Much better time spent than doing 20 minute dungeons for 15k each.

Fake CD key accounts, they were a huge thing in China for a long time, they get detected after a few weeks and banned, but those few weeks generate so much gil on fresh servers (1m per account at level 30) that its laughable how slow SQE are at banning them.

Really? When they suspended free trail during EW launch, a lot of bots went MIA. Also, if you think they can't haven't figured out a way to get around some of those limitations I got some farmland in Florida to sell you.

It wasn't just free trial account creation that was suspended. Sale of the game and paid account creation were suspended as well.

The only way they would have to get around those limitations is to convert the account from trial to paid. Those limitations are very good at preventing transfer of anything with gil value from a trial account.

No they don't. Every economy needs peasants.

Come on, let's call them what they are. Replaceable cogs.
BUT, to be fair, if the cogs could start their own start up businesses then we would all be in trouble! The World Economic Forum told me so! D^:

[PoyoYoyo]

Lmao, Yoshi-P be creating new servers for this " new players" and it's just bots x'D

[Tiramu]

The problem is that the average player is dumb at spotting bots.

I have been called a bot several times simply because I was mining for several hours in the same area. A low level area. (identified a gap in the market)

Two people called me a bot who was ruining the game.

This is true, while going for the At Arts Horizon achievement I got called a bot a few times. I just laughed it off and told them I bloody well feel like one right now.

However, bots and RMT are a problem that SE need to do more about. Given the chance they would wreck the game like they did to XI.

Don't worry, Eureka Pyros, in every datacenter (except japan! funnily enough) is completely overrun with RMT bot farms doing the south bunny fate for 700m+ a day gil.

Its great to see that they moderate the JP servers, but its kinda sad when 50+ bots are sitting in an instance, reported by an entire datacenter eureka community, and gets ignored for over a year.

The cracks in the XIV facade of being 'an amazing game' really start to show when you find the parts of the game they ignore.

I thought the same first time I went to Pyros strangely enough the recent few times I went to Pyro there were only like 2 bots.

Now I see a freaking ton in Eulmore same ones all the time show up.
