Figures. They are probably hiding from ZOS agents by picking a new spot to run.

Edit: Yeah, there were bots hanging around there in PC NA.

Also, bots are back farming mudcrabs on the beach in Grahtwood. For me, they have been gone for quite a while, or at least not around when I am. It is a different botting crew, too. Different pattern and not all of them are following the same one.

Looked something like this? A group like this was on the EU server today.

jeezuz, those aren't bots, it's a guy "multiboxing" several accounts. bots are an entirely different thing.

also, this is hardly a bug!

there are differents names of user (account) how do you explain that ?

Elsonso

It is not possible to tell in the short video whether it is one autonomous bot + multiboxing, several autonomous bots, or a player + multiboxing. That is, unless the player who is multiboxing wishes to swing by and let us know.

All of that is against the ToS, so I don't see that it matters.

if it were serveral bots you wouldn't run them like this since it's too obvious. but it doesn't matter whether it's a bot or a human multiboxing, it's still just mulitboxing as it is still just driving a car, no matter if it's driven by a human or a computer.
well, it doesn't really matter and yet it does. you don't call a banana bicycle, do you?

Actually, you do. Autonomous bots follow a pre-defined path, and so they will eventually catch up to each other and travel as a group. The group provides some protection, since they are not good enough at playing the game to have high solo survivability. It can sometimes take a few deaths for a bot to get merged with the group.

That video is clearly bots and not a multiboxer, I mean you literally see 10 of them all get CC'ed by that NPC, and then they don't even CC break.

If it was a person multi boxing, they would have at least tried to block the CC, and would have broken out of the CC instead of sitting there like morons.

Use the addons to report them and make sure to follow up on the emails and report them daily.

ZOS will remove them once enough reports and proof are gathered.
