Right this is getting completely out of hand. Nearly impossible to get a herb at the moment in Nazjatar EU because there are bots traveling around in groups of 10 sucking up every single node. Currently on Silvermoon there are at least 3 packs of bots going in both clockwise and anticlockwise circles around the map and I have got 11 Zin anthid in 15 minutes of trying because these packs are just constantly hoovering the slow respawn up.
FIX THIS. They are clearly bots and I’ve added them to friends list and surprise surprise these same characters are online 24/7. It can’t be that hard to find and ban them…

The multiboxers can be very frustrating to deal with. I struggle to herb for myself in Nazjatar. I would love to have my own farm or herb patch somewhere so I could actually get enough herbs to make my own flasks and pots.

boycott the herb market, stop buying flasks & pots, they’re expensive as hell cause some wise guy with 30 accounts wants to dominate the server’s herb market.
Allowing multiboxing is an archaic concept, we’ve all accepted that cute little Blizzard is greedy for multiboxer money, but come on billion dollar company, please do something about this herb supply mess.
(Make the herb explode if more than 3-4 people try to pick it at the same time, lethal damage to the herb and no1 gets anything out of it)
This way you’ll force these multiboxing Andies to click on the herb individually on each of his 30 accounts, the way we have to, or at least delay them significantly enough so that regular people have a shot at picking the herb too
Id love if they brung crafting dungeons like in and another mmo plays here, where you enter in solo with a couple of quests related to the crafting instance and the expansion.
example for mining instance in arathi highlands and sabotage their enemy mining operation, sacking their ore for yourself while hindering the horde or alliance mining operation, while killing the workers and peons looting the ores off them, then at the end killing the mine overseer for a key to open locked ore crate for a large assortment of monelight, stormsilver, platinum
nazjatar would have its own craft instance too naga themed liberating slaves etc

Ooh that sounds like a really cool idea
I wish mobs dropped mats, zones were bigger to make more room for environmental mats and more variety of those AND crafting was the primary source of items in the game instead of getting chain-fed epics from brain dead daily quests.
No as I stated these are BOTS not MULTIBOXERS.
I’m well aware of the difference.
They are running the exact same lines making hard right angled turns at EXACTLY the same points and are NEVER OFFLINE. As I said I have added the individuals to friends list to test this.

But you can also pick from what they pick up until it disappears, no?
Or is it that they pick that much that the timer on every available node is all the time ticking and almost every node despawns?
10 people loot a node it disappears, so when packs of 10 bots are roaming around a small map…you rarely get ANY nodes.

No dude, a million people can pick the same node, it just gets a timer to despawn the first time it get picked up.
Depends how many multiboxers it is. They can deplete a node in one go. This is the problem I have, nodes literally disappear even if you land the second after they do.

I’ve made it my personal mission to kill any multiboxer I come across until I make them phase out.

Are you sure that nodes deplete?
I’m also doing that when I see them.
They disgust me.

Yes, this is why so many of us have trouble in Nazjatar.
I’m 100% convinced that nodes are infinite and just despawns after a time after they got picked up.
How could I see that it is the way you say it is? Is there a video or info or guide or something I could check?

Thanks for your contribution.
Blizz should add “traps” into herb nodes, ect.
The sort that, if you are alone, you can easily click it off or something. But for multiboxer if they arent paying attention to each and every one of their characters, might be left behind due to slow or root. Ect.
I remember back in the day when I played the ancient oldest runescape, they added random events to resource nodes. You just had to talk to the npc that spawned and answer some questions. If you did not, you died instantly. Ect.
Traps would be fun.
As it is, multiboxers being allowed and seemingly allowed to bot and obviously cheat due to some rule allowing them to do so, they are ruining economy and causing problems.

I have searched and everything I saw was someone on r/woweconomy saying that a node disappears in 15 seconds after someone picks it up. I think it actually lasts longer, but even if it’s only a minute I can see the problem.
I think one technique could be to follow these farmers and farm with them, since they would have routes and maybe timers and all that, and you could certainly access what they pick up too.
I like the idea.
