@ZOS - Suggestion to reduce *some* botting

So I'm coast harvesting in Rivenspire tonight for some crafting bits and I notice there are a few bots running around smallish loops harvesting. After a while there is a standard random spawn of a trio of dremora... normally I'd just smack them down and be on my merry way but as a bot was around I sneaked round and watched with some pleasure as they single hit the bot.
Obviously someone killed the spawn and the bot was back not long after but... gave me an idea...
As of now a level 3 bot can respawn for free so... how about they can only respawn for free in zones up to maybe level 8 or 9, i.e. not beyond the first main area of any alliance. That way any bot killed is not going to be able to respawn easily forcing additional intervention by the controller. it's not perfect but it might be an easy way to make life harder for botters.
Equally making random spawns a little more random in location might help.

Chatoyancy✭✭✭I think that's a really good idea, and I don't think it would affect the average player too much. I'm sure the bots would still be able to get around around it, but it would slow them down. -
Worstluck✭✭✭✭✭This, along with allowing only level 30+ players in Coldharbour would surely help. There are quite a few things they could do, besides nerfing loot tables that affects everyone, but they seem to be slow in enacting anything.Edited by Worstluck on May 14, 2014 12:03AMWorstluck - Breton Nightblade "Some of us refused to bow.

✭✭Ppl should be talking about the game and the fun they have playing it, not making infinity thread on how Zos could do stuff to fight bots.
This is so sad
100% agreed. There is much to like about this game but it is too often overshadowed by bots & bugs which steal the fun out of playing.GM - Malazan
