    There is likely nothing on ESOUI.com that will get you banned.

    AUI is highly reputable. To this day, I have yet to hear of someone getting banned for it, and hundreds (at least) players use it. Most addons (maybe all of them, tbh) that you find on Minion are safe. Even the ones that come with disclaimers saying "this can be flagged as botting blah blah blah" are just people covering their butts. Addons like Wykkyd's are the closest thing you'll get to botting, and I gear-swap with it several times a day, and have for two years now.

    The API is used for many things, two of which are botting and addons. Addons are allowed, and botting is not. If you aren't doing the latter (which is not the case with any addon you find on Minion or ESOUI) then you aren't at risk of being banned. ZOS gives us access to the API, so addons can't do anything they haven't "told" us is okay.

    Addons can only do what ZOS allows them access to. As far as I know, no one has ever gotten banned for addons ever.

    AUI is an awesome addon. Use it with confidence.


    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    In recent times the only things I've heard people get banned for are language, and roleplaying to close to overly sensitive roleplayers.
    This one has an eloquent and well thought out response to tha... Ooh sweetroll!

    Of Zos doesn't like an add-on doing something, they just change stuff on the back end so it can't do that anymore. Has happened with a few, barely any, addons. As far as I know though they never have banned anyone though - since originally the add-on was doing something zos' API allowed it to do.

    AUI is definitely safe to use and not even close to being in a grey area. I have used it for a long time!
