Razer Synapes macros OK to use?

[delaSO]

The allowed use would probably be that of bindable keys, of course not to legalize a cheating tool.



TOS specify both software and hardware.


If you repeat the same action over and over, that's botting.
What the guy does in the thread you linked looks legit since it looks like a crafter macroing its steps, but still borderline.

However I think anything that goes beyond the software/game functions is not allowed, like could you gather with a macro? If not then you shouldn't.
I would send a ticket if you wanna be sure.

Thank you for the clarification. The only thing is you can get around it looking like its automated. Say you have 2 crafting macros, one for first 'step' and one to finish. You could easily have mulitple razer synapse macros made that change the time between the two in game macros running, setting them to random orders. Sure there may be a pattern eventually but you could say the same about someone sitting there for 8 hours clicking the two macro icons, that may look like a pattern of 'botting' as well.

I generally only use these types of software for FPS games. Some where you have to 'activate' an ability then click the mouse, etc. To have mouse2 do those 2 actions in keypress is nice. Like everyone has mentioned it's borderline once you look into it. I could make an Autohotkey script that would make most things trivial where synapes doesn't have the control like programs as Autohotkey. I despise bots and how it ruins economy's as much as anyone else, if anything maybe this will help SQ in targeting players?(doubtful but one can hope)
