Mundane Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 They do ban weaves from time to time (meaning every 365 days), but they never catch them all. What they do is not enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karel Posted February 23, 2023 Share Posted February 23, 2023 They won't ban the bot unless it's really disturbing real players like in some situations as constantly killing the mob you need, monopolizing farming spots etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eliseth Posted February 26, 2023 Share Posted February 26, 2023 Bots are way too common right now and it is definitely disturbing the experience of anyone who's trying to quest normally. There are areas where there are 5+ bots constantly killing everything, good luck getting your quest mobs there. And they're everywhere too. I leveled a character recently, and even in Verteron there were always multiple bots farming around Eninte. Eltnen has a lot of bots farming Lepharist HQ, as well as some loose ones all across the zone. Heiron has bots next to the central hub farming kerubar as well as some farming agrints / rotrons. It's gotten to the point that whenever I see a spiritmaster, I immediately assume it's a bot, because 99% of the time it's true. It's mind boggling that whoever is in charge of this game let it get this bad. Seems like they never actually log in and take a look at their own server. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cyfur Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 The bots are crazy never seen so many as their are now. I would like to hear from someone at NCsoft as to why they allow so many bots to hyper-inflate the economy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh we know that, but why let the bots cause hyper-inflation. Surely NCsoft could adjust the type of items dropped by the mobs the bots farm so they are not merchantable? That's how most new kinah is entering the economy, most new kinah should come from quest rewards, not the merchant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their CEO left recently, maybe someone competent will take the spot eventually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This game is not developed for the West, it's developed for Korea and we get the translation. When the game launched they might've cared, but now it's just extra money. I was honestly surprised to see the August changes for our region only, but we can see how much of a disaster that has been after they tried to update our version. If the problem doesn't exist in Korea or is any different, nothing will change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparkalina Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 I've been trying to finish a repeat quest. It would have been done hours ago if not for the 15+ bots running around with 2 and 3 jumping on every kill I'm doing and stealing the loot which after a while wasn't anywhere near the fact that I never got credit for most of the quest kills. Shut the game off and came back FOUR hours later and the same group still there!!! Tried again another three hours later and STILL there!! I wrote down the names of the groups involved. A repeat quest took me half the day to just complete 5 out of 20 repeat times. This just makes fun turn to frustrating then disgust. The Aion support is no help as it clearly states this is NOT a violation and they will not intervene. I guess as long as they pay their subscription on time each month who cares what they do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it's absurd, quest mobs should be set to only drop the quest rewards nothing else, so the bots have no reason to target them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormwing Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 (edited) @Cyfur: I agree. Instead of solving the bot issue we should make quest mobs not drop anything else for normal players as well.This post might contain traces of sarcasm.
