    Blatant botting in Eureka Pyros

    I have been reporting them for a while and some people say they have been reporting the same bots for months. It's aggravating to see them in the zone and especially with how blatant they are. Usually the same bots with the same names, all level 80 in a single job with the equipment you get from boosting. They all follow a set scripted path and scripted battle, though sometimes they just stand there (maybe to avoid autobot detection?).

    Mostly here to vent and maybe get some attention to the issue since nothing is happening. I don't know if it's because Eureka's zones are all instanced so botting detection isn't working or if because SE is unable to look at Eureka instance logs to make a determination but we're talking about 8+ bots farming a fate that has limited rewards (so they are taking rewards from actual living beings during peak hours) all day everyday with chest giving out 10,000, 25,000, or 100,000 gil alone not including potential high value items.

    It's just infuriating to see the same bots for weeks on end following obvious scripts without any action being taken and with reporting doing absolutely nothing. Not expecting a public response from SE but if it could at least get noticed internally that would be a step to getting these kind of bots out of the game.

    I feel your pain, this has been ongoing for years, back in SB i reported fate bots over and over, nothing happened. In their weekly reports they show that they remove about 4-6 bots per week.
    It honestly feels like a joke, they could just straight out say "yea so you can report them but we don't have the manpower to do anything about it" because that is honestly what it very likely is.

    Reports of abuse will be looked at, reports about bots are likely piled up till person X has a certain amounts of complaints about them, then they will look ... and maybe do something. Or maybe not since 4-6 are kicked per week ...

    Also let me guess they told you to blacklist them, in a special duty in which you cant blacklist players, man I bet the GM's are imported and don't even play the game and cant even be blamed ...

    I have been reporting the same guy farming legendary nodes for months now. It does feel like bots are getting completely ignored by the GMs.
