    Amdapor Keep has the highest density of mobs that drop gil out of any ARR dungeon and they have low HP to boot.

    The bots use their teleport hacks to swiftly aggro everything prior to the first boss, round them up into a ball then burn them down in a matter of seconds with the tried and true BLM Flare spam. They can't die as they go out of bounds to avoid being hit by the enemies.

    This could be fixed both by changing the enemy AI to not allow itself to simply be killed if it's not able to path to its target (Which is already a thing in flight-enabled zones where they'll insta-reset if they can't reach you) and by just axing the gil drops so the bots have nothing to abuse anymore.

    I'd be okay with removing all gil drops outside of main bosses in some of the earlier dungeons. The only actual players running AK these days are people doing it for old relics or people doing it for the story - it hasn't been a leveling or tome grind spot since Lost City speed runs came out.
