ostrapz✭✭✭Where?? There in at least 2 or 3 diffrent bear spots. If you go take a 10minute stroll around you will find some. There's like 20+ at every spot and there definitely on some sort of program cuz they do endless heavy attacks on low levels with xbox generated names. Definitely botting of some sortXbox 1 NA

There's more than one way to do this stuff.
There's the rubber band method - about as low tech as you can get. Wrap a rubber band on the controller to keep the trigger down.
There's the macro method - the controller connects wirelessly. A laptop can pretend to be a controller and feed the console a set of scripted commands.
And neither of those mod anything on the console at all. There's image recognition, uses tech as common as the face detection on the common smartphone that tracks your face in a picture, but that gets into the realm of feeding the console screen output to a computer input or other such concoctions.Edited by Cryptical on November 6, 2016 6:55PMXbox NA6 -

Sounds like something a bot owner would say. ZOS, ban this guy.8 -

Lol hopefully that is sarcasm.
To op,
I have yet to see a bot in eso on xbox na. Even if there are coming here will not make a difference. There was recently a post about a single bot that stayed open for quite awhile worth zero response from zos.
The only thing you can do is report in game. Even then the proof had better be solid if you ever expect anything to come about.
If people are botting I find it pretty hard to believe 20+ of them are working together as you say.3 -
Averya_Teira✭✭✭✭✭Rubber banding your controller isn't botting... You can't prove he's not holding down the trigger with his finger for 3 hours...2 -
Zach2322✭✭✭My friend stumbled on them and made a few videos 2 days ago. I want to say there was 10 or more with the winged twilight pet and lightning staffs. Kind of reminded me of the pig farming when it was around.0 -
Deathgiggle✭✭✭THERE ARE BOTS ON PS4 AND XBOX AND I CAN EASILY PROVE IT!!!
Just google Titan One and you will find a device that you simply plug into your xbox or ps4 and it allows you to create long strings of macros. You can also upload macros that other people have written and many people have written bots for a lot of ps4 and xbox games.
The gold farmers know this and they utilize these methods as well. They are indeed bots but they have someone watching over them at all times. This person answers a mod if they come on and message them, making it look like these bots are being manned by a live person. The thing is, this person is sitting in a room with 10 game consoles or more and just supervising the bots. They make so much money in a 24 hour period that even if you banned all 10 accounts it paid for itself and they just buy 10 more.Edited by Deathgiggle on November 6, 2016 10:05PM2 -
attackjet✭✭✭✭They've been doing it for over 8 months now. They are all Chinese, some of them have 3-4 xboxs and just run the werewolf loop on each account so they get 3-4x more loot. I've made millions of gold off these guys. They sell me bulk scraps for cheaper, I sell em bulk cheap. They sell there gold for real money though, I know that's against the ESO rules. But with 3-4 xboxs I don't know if you could stop them. This spot used to be extremely secretive, getting in there group was super hard, but tamriel one ended that0

Sooo with the rubber band method how exactly is Zenimax going to prove the player wasn't at the controller?0 -

AsteriaStarfall✭✭✭Don't worry PC NA still has the same 4 bots running as a chain in Northern Rivenspire I posted about a couple weeks ago.0

Why do people always assume that bots are always of Chinese or Korean origin? Lol. That's messed up, bruh.
But to stay on topic to OP, I do believe there are indeed bots that exist on console. Even here and there I'll come across a message in zone chat from an account with a bunch of jumbled numbers and letters for a name, and mentioning a website you can visit to buy gold from, or get power-leveled at. And it always seems automated. So maybe there is in fact something up. Who knows?Edited by Ch4mpTW on November 7, 2016 12:36AM4 -
boldscot✭✭✭Came across this during the week on PS4 EU while I was collecting lore books in Bangkorai, dead bears everywhere and a bunch of characters not moving but constantly firing off a full charged heavy attack with a destro.

✭Thought zos had epic antibot code. Like there is never any bots hanging around the zombies in bangkorai on pc NA.This recent update has made me sad. Sad for the game. Sad for the community. Sad to pay whatever it is now. I want the previous eso back.0 -

A bot owner would want to keep you ignorant and blind to the bots, so that if you saw something suspicious you would dumbly wander away.

✭✭quite sure you can't and even if you use macros to string together a sequence resources are random so you will not be able to ascertain the location of each one. Now if they're standing in one spot that's a different thing but like I stated before I'm sure it's random.不動の Steadfast - Unwavering

Deathgiggle✭✭✭That's not true, resources are not random. They have static spawn locations. Nodes are connected in groups of 4 throughout the zone. If you figure out which 4 are connected, you can put bots at the 4 locations and set them to mine them in sequence and they will respawn as soon as the 4th one is mined. Thus you create an endless farm loop.
Do you guys even read the internet, lol? There is tons of posts on botting in this game out thereEdited by Deathgiggle on November 7, 2016 7:06AM0 -

Very simple. look at their combat log. Have they been doing a single attack repeatedly for hours? IF YES, ban them. Any excuse is just that, an excuse. No person would sit there for hours holding the trigger for hours.
