Increasing number of players using 3rd party tools

[elvenmad]

As soon as that becomes normalized it essentially becomes the status quo and you're punished for not using them.

I completely agree, Use of addons is going to get out of hand very fast if nothing is done, they are clearly in breech of the ToS, Square need to either allow 3rd party addons OR not, you can't have any "grey" area's, there is no middle ground because that's when you lose control.

I know alot have been in the game for quite a while and have been deliberately ignored, but recently with the big influx of new players and a large number of influential streamers , what alot of players previously did not know about is now becoming common knowledge, some of the new streamers even uploading "addon" guides and even downloads of there own addon's and settings through their Discords

This will eventually get out of hand, and its already started.

I recently joined the game, like 3 or so months ago, came from WoW biggest plus for the game was the no addons policy and everyone equal.

There are players out there openly, streaming using addons that automate skill bonus combo's onto one button, com'on if that's not basically botting and automating gameplay and very clearly against ToS , then the ToS needs a revamp, because it is going to get worse


I am having a blast , fell in love with the game, but recent;y watching some streams of "ex" WoW players to learn boss mechanics and see how they handle boss's as new players too, But straight off the bat I see they are very clearly using game changing 3rd party addons, which very clearly do make a difference is very very sad to see.
