Bots in Craglorn

    The bots who bunch up and it is hard to pick out one of the names - I have been running a stream of them and looking at it frame by frame to report them. Others in Craglorn is the normal in-game tool.

    @ZOS_Kevin I've been putting "Harvesting Bot" in the reason on the report. Is there anything else you want or ?

    Solving this problem takes a better approach than randomly doing bot sweeps and banning individual bots.

    New characters shouldn’t be able to farm materials that yield the most expensive materials, those raw materials can’t be refined by the bots as their skill lines aren’t high enough, so those materials are either sent to one central account for refining, or sold to others who can do it themselves.

    Characters should generate more or less wealth based on how long they are into their progression, farming materials is a work-around for that.

    To solve the bot problem, this specifically needs to be addressed, because if it takes a bot until level 50 to start yielding results, it would be a lot more discouraging to it’s creator when it gets banned.

    "Sweeps" are not good enough at all. Reporting makes no difference as explained because the bots are replaced. More reporting is not needed anyway because developers MUST know by now where the bots favorite spawns are.

    Zos, there is a group of us that would love to suspend any of these Level 3, weird name bot accounts, AT NO CHARGE TO YOU!

    Just add a "Report as a Bot" option to the player interaction wheel like duelling. What could go wrong? Nobody would ever abuse that....
