Suggestion for in-game on how to combat botters!

[Saccharin]

It is quite simple. Allow people to export their blacklist to a text document which we could then send to the Square-Enix Special Team Squad or whatever they call themselves who combat RMT and it would be super easy. Much more than submitting a "Report Cheating" for 200+ Names (because I get more names as I type them out in game) and then get sent an automated message telling me to do it again outside of game. This is just blatent bureaucratical kiting and nobody appreciates that.

I would like to think that the FFXIV Dev team and everyone else involved would like to combat RMT but if they don't/haven't considered this...I don't know anymore...

That is all. Sorry wasn't sure what forum to post this in so I posted this here.

Or report spam feature. Much simpler.

They're actually not invisible - they're just hiding under the ground. It is possible to see their names if you target the enemy's target. Using the <tt> chat command while targetting the mob is also a good idea since it'll give you the name of the bot in the chat log. xD

I know about the underground bots.

The bots that I saw at Sagolii desert around the sundrakes area could not be targeted by the mob at all. I know how to use target-of-target, but it only works if the mob could actually target their attacker.

Edit: No, they were not ninjas. They were all thaumaturges using Fire 1 repeatedly just as the sundrakes spawned.

Huh, that's pretty strange. I'm kind of curious now. Did you see where the Fire 1 fireball animations were coming from by any chance?
