ESO Bots Have Gone Underground

Can't imagine what this would be if not some sort of hack/glitch. Though it looks like the bot/player is failing miserably judging by how much healing I could give it/how many times it died. ZOS, you wanna do something about this?

How do you know it's a bot and not some unfortunate player who fell through the terrain? If people are still being feared through walls its not a stretch to imagine people can sink through the ground and get stuck.

They were first spotted camping on delves bosses back in the launch days. Maybe they're digging their way back in again?

so it showed you were near the bitteroot cave wb, possible they were inside the cave but used a exploit to ignore the walls. Or is there a glitch in the terrain, more likely. Why were you able to hit at them, using the same glitch? Or makes one question did you do something as well to reach through? Not saying you did but it does raise questions.

Anytime I got knocked through the world I could not effect anything through to the other side.

@dazee maybe the player fell through the terrain. But if it was you who fell through the terrain would you keep using time stop and fighting the mobs for 5+ minutes and resing in the same spot instead of hitting wayshrine each time you died? Wouldnt you respond in chat and be like "yo help me, idk where i am" instead of resing without responding?

@Grimm13 I was wondering if it was possible that they were in the cave, but had to go to work so didnt check. I logged in and thats what happened to me. I turned on my recording software because I was getting hit by a mob that I couldnt see, then I saw the fireballs were coming up through the ground and there was a player ressing repeatedly down there. Whether its a bot or someone exploiting or some bug I don't know. Lets say it was me exploiting though to see players who got stuck under the ground... Seems a) pointless and b) kinda dumb of me to take a youtube video of it and post it on 1) my official youtube and 2) official forums. Just my personal thoughts though.
