In Stratholme - mage bots!
In Dire Maul - mage, hunter, warlock bots!
In Zul’farrak - mage bots!
In Maraudon - one mage takes his 4 mages and pumps them out, after which he puts bots on them!
Blizzard, maybe we shouldn’t wait for people to complain about these bots? Because most people don’t do this, and when there are more than 50 of them, and there are already more than 50 of them, then even through / who it is impossible to do this. Maybe you yourself will finally deal with the problem of bots on Vanilla?
While you are waiting for people to send a report to them, and then you only ban them a month later, they are already earning and just after your bans they put up a new batch of bots! Maybe you will finally deal with this problem normally, and will not tell you that you need to send reports? Or do you enjoy selling them accounts?
Here, watch a video about Stratholme! In the aforementioned dungeons, everything is the same!
Good work with the video to show people how its looks like. Unfortunately we all know blizzard will not give a single F about situation. At the end they will make some wave ban of 300k bot account to show of. A day after the double number gonna be again farming same dungeons for next few months.
Fixing issue not give them any profit and its gonna be costly.
BUT
Make hype on fresh era or hc classic is easier and does not require almost any work.
Additionally.
The time for half-measures end, blizzard. Through your corporate methods you are making the situation even worse.
One moment and there will be nothing to save.
Unless, you are playing for your loss. I wouldn’t be surprised at all.
As they say " King is dead, long live the King". Maybe you need to make room for the next ideas that bring faster profit. Who knows.
I hope they can see this BS actually in action and it will help them decide to add some level restrictions on HC post / AH / trade, otherwise this cesspit is coming hot and heavy for the HC cluster.
Can’t even kill the mass bots on HC servers because of extreme ‘grief prevention’.
I have to ask naive question. Is bots a PvP thing only? Every time I look in Strat or any of dungeons you mention. I see 1 - 2 groups, real names, real guild level fits dungeon and mixed classes. As example: In Strat now PvE cluster at 5:50 servertime: 1 mage, 1 Hunter, 2 Pallys, 2 Rogues, 1 warrior.
All bots are on PvP firemaw claster, on PvE claster 90% of players are HC and they have trade restrictions so bots don’t have enough buyers for their gold on PvE servers.
Well more or less. A few players are on the pve realms but its much much less.
You really dont see them much in the world, only a handful, when pop was lower there used to be more bots in the open world. But it seems they found they get more mileage out of the acc if they keep to dungeons. Just less chance to be reported/interupted.
Bgs too theres very little, virtually none. No gems to sell or exp in vanilla bgs. They would have to sell the acc to earn anything and I doubt they can compete well with premades. So Its probably more individuals struggling with ranking and not for profit actors that attempt that.
Instead its mainly dungeons that get botted, you see it pretty clearly at the auction house. Major mana pots, and the dire maul herbs are all dirt cheap.
Its to the point where mountain silversage is 5-8 times the cost of dreamfoils, where as normally it tends to be half the price of dreamfoils. This as you just need so much more dreamfoils for nealry everything.
Or just put 1 programmer to find vulnerabilities in the code and fix LUA unlocker that allow bots to interact with game code, it will solve this problem forever. Only pixel bots will remain but they are much less efficient then LUA unlocker bots.
wow classic era reports don’t work at all, blizzard employees don’t care about wow classic era bots. Across one dungeon full of bots.
But each bot is + in the Blizzard wallet for subscription. It’s just a market, not a game
Bots and gold farmers exist because there are buyers. Some of my guildies confirm in Discord that they buy gold. Later they get their loot in Classic-era Naxx by GDKP.
It’s just another big game and their hackers telling you you must buy a mod menu to keep your account safe and get in-game money.
I rather go to a real Casino and burn my money there than throw money at hackers.
The downside is we cannot raid anymore, we are losing people because they have decided that buying Naxx loot is more important than raiding ZG & AQ20 with us.
