Halicarnassus has 100's of bots

[Allmightpool]

Its becoming an issue that is interfering with people's games, especially sprouts.

The four major areas right now are, Sagoli desert in Southern Thanalan ( monsters), Camp Blue frog Northern than (monsters), Hawthorn hut East Shroud (mining), North shroud (monsters).

I'm sure there are more areas, but myself and others have been sendong in reports, (that take too long to fill out btw) and getting no response or any action from devs.

I've seen bots on other servers it's different here.

Search for players >sprouts in each arr zone
They all start with two letter first names and random last name. It's in the hundreds now.

Please help Hali!

Dynamis in general has been a bot hell since it came out, Square Enix does not care.

This is not just on Dynamis.

Whenever I open a wide filter for all sprouts I sometimes count as far as half of the new players being actual bots.

The last couple of roulettes can confirm most of the bots are male Viera.

The ones under sagoli and in east shroud are all lalafells, if you kill enough of the fish things they pop to top of ground for a bit.

Havent seen bot viera myself.

They're a widespread issue.

I personally hate the marketboard bots. Every five minutes they undercut by one whole gil. Always a retainer from Limsa with some gibberish name. Unfortunately they aren't stupid enough to undercut down to 1 gil, else I'd be taking advantage of them all night long.

The more predatory ones are in Endwalker fate zones. Presumably using stolen accounts to farm fates, in shell FC's. Reported them a bunch of times, nothing seems to be done, they've evaded plenty of ban waves.

"Halicarnassus" ....Is that what we're calling Titanmen now?

[KageTokage]

I'm not sure what they expected to happen when they started offering free gil as an incentive for playing on low population servers.

Though that would insinuate that they actually care about the botting issues in the first place.

[Allmightpool]

Yes, I doubt they will do anything, but I can hope. It's just upsetting how easy it is find them, and yet nothing is done.

I would like them to purge all the bots during the maintenance, I think that would help login queues also.
