Mob drops need to be addressed

[Sadique]

I have heard that if you open the trade window with a bot, it's screws up their programming and they won't be able to claim mobs (or maybe teleport either). So, grab a friend or two, have someone start a trade with a bot while the others claim mobs.

and i heard that if you open trade with a bot its a good way to get yourself banned

Ah, you see this is the outcome of people crying that no one should be leveling or farming things in an open world setting so SE's response was to do what other MMOs do - limit the spawns and kill exp on world mob. Look at 1.0 you had multiple camps of sheep for leveling and farming purposes even varying in levels, in ARR? You'll be lucky to see 9 at one time in the whole zone.

I advise against it, as for one thing it's actually a griefing tactic, something that can bring punishment to you and secondly you're actively trading with someone who has reports against them most likely, so you'll simply flag yourself.

It's not mob drop rate that needs to be addressed. It's mob quantity that needs to be fixed.

There need to be more places to get specific items. Diremite web, fleece, etc. only drop off a handful of mobs. Leave the rate how it is, just add more spawns of these mobs, or have the lower tier mobs drop the items.

On my server, banemites and golden fleece arnt so bad, but it seems Karakuls are always farmed although not by bots.

The drop rate of some of the items could do with a little addressing as well, i spent just over 2 and a half hours killing billys/nannys for aldgoat skins compareing this to mining i can get a stack of 99 in around 20-30 mins its a huge work rate diffrence for a leather worker compared to a goldsmith

Just means we need a shepherd/butcher/skinner class :P

And, just putting it out there, if you see someone at a spot and roll in and start killing stuff around them with your ~FRANDS~, it's just rude.

you understand that some mats are available from ridiculous small spot? means if someone is here you are screw and must use the market board if we follow your mind?

i means the area is not tagged to you, you can't ask people to simply wait, you have finished to farm your mats for be able to farm... is as much rude.

[Sammich]

Yeah, I've been trying to level weaving and having to compete with bots for Diremite Web is a real pain. I'll frequently only get one or two drops from 20+ diremites, despite hitting them first and doing more damage. ( and the market board prices are just too high to not farm them myself...

[Covate]

I know its not a solution to bot farming etc. But do some of the levequests that make Karakuls spawn and you will be the only one that can tag and kill them.
