Booted from server for leveling alchemy, again

Still having this issue. :(

I know it has been reported but it seems the search function on the forums does not work properly because no matter what I searched, it found 0 topics. (Had I found an already created topic, I would havw posted there but I am so upset that this is still an issue, I decided to make a new post.) But I don't care about the search function on the forums not working.

I care that I *literally* can not play the game doing something as simple as leveling a crafting skill. EVERY TIME I try to level alchemy on any of my toons, I get kicked during the process of leveling alchemy or even after I leave the crafting table. Multiple. Times. I get a "booted from the server:307" error. I can't log back into my account for at least 10 minutes, if not longer. This is sooo frustrating!

I have tried repairing my game. Disabling addons. Creating minimal/small amounts of pots at a time. Selling pots as I go. Nothing saves me from being kicked from the server.

I really wish someone could look into (and ideally) fix this issue. I know I am not the only one that is having this problem. :(

    Are you using an addon such as multicraft instead of the built in system? If you are, it can lead to 'messages exceeded' or similar error + boot.

    Since you can make multiple items with the in game UI now, and still get the associated inspiration from doing so, no add on required.

    If you're not using such an add on and it's still doing it, you may want to issue a /HELP ticket, as it has to be something else.

    Good luck.
    Just because you don't like the way something is doesn't necessarily make it wrong...

    This happens to my low level toons i am levelling up with alchemy master writs EACH EVERY TIME.
    In my understanding it is "anti-bot" action. Noticing that a character stands stationary and repeats actions the game just disconnects you with "Booted from server" and blocks your attempts to reconnect for 10..15 minutes.

    I opened a support ticket, reported bug.. Futile.
    (Zenimax could make the anti-bot exclusion for 5m area around Rolis Hlaalu as he has only a very few locations)

    I use workaround. After each 8 master writs turned in i make a walk to nearby treasure chests locations, kill a mob or two.
    This works and i m not disconnected, though it wastes the time of XP experience scroll consumed to increase XP received.

    I am not running any addons that enhance/alter ingame crafting (I just have a few quality of life ones, like skyshard and lorebooks).

    Also, all my characters I have tried this with are all 50+ level.

    Being any antibot kick I guess makes sense but it does little to alleviate the pain of being booted from the game for 10 to 30 minutes at a time for simply crafting some potions. :( Thanks all for the input and feedback.

    Just to clarify are you leveling alchemy from 1 - 50 on a toon by crafting potions/poisons? Or are you leveling up using alchemy master writs and turning them in for xp? I've occasionally been booted for the second situation but never been booted for just leveling up my alchemy skill.

    If you are being booted just for leveling the skill, I'd say it's not an extremely widespread issue. I'm not saying it's a non issue, but it suggests that you may be doing something differently than others, perhaps something that could be avoided. I've leveled 25+ toons to max alchemy and never received the auto boot you describe for it.

    I power leveled alchemy on 6 character during past few months and didn't have such problem, but I did have such problem when power leveling jewelry. I'd craft a bunch (~100) of CP150 rings and then start stashing them into bank, and than BAM, booted.

    With alchemy it might be that I am trying to minimize resource loss, so I craft a big bunch of poison, then smaller and smaller as I am approaching next alchemy passive level threshold so I won
    t overshoot, then I put a skill point in passive, select higher level solvent and repeat.. Maybe this all make it look like not a bot action. With jewelry, it's literally doing same thing over and over.
