Aye, I had to remake an HB account for forums. Been a member forever. But anyways, seems like everyone who is botting on EU is getting banned left and right, are they scanning more and more now? Seems like they're getting very strict. I'm from the US but I'm curious.
Most of these bans are dungeon/bg farmers (blizz keeping eye on that right now, atleast on EU its not safe to farm dungeons/BG right now) or using combat routines on bg/arenas while having no idea whats happening (e.g. super duper reflections and interrupts while movements of very low skilled player = lots of instant reports from players).
I've been using BG bots for the past week but purposefully avoiding AV and no ban so far. Botted about 8 hours a day.
EU = cheap russian battle chest and lots of anzul suicide instance farming , hence the high ban rate, for just 4 euro's you cant miss really, i lost some accounts but my paypal says I am way ahead.
Been wondering the same, i lost all my account on tuesday/wednesday as usual, and lost another 15 yesterday that i just start leveling.
I also had the same thing happen but mine are all US. I dont think this is only EU getting hit hard. US is also getting rocked.
Just lost 8 myself, 2 healers survived. And again, like last month, the explanation for the ban was "Use of Bots or Third-Party Automation Software". EU is getting hit really hard, and it's even worse that a battlechest is 7.5 euro or 5 pounds now, which makes it way harder for the bot investment to even break even.
Honestly US isnt any better atm. People just cba to open threads anymore with bans, since they are useless.
this. the EU forums are literally bursting with people crying about botters in dungeons, bgs and arenas. and this is only the forums, i don't wanna know how many tickets they receive on a daily basis of people complaining about that druids or whatever in that dungeon etc. europeans love to cry and to complain, like a lot. since there are so many people complaining, blizz has/had to do something.
Before entering a BG, I always write in chat, "Using 3rd party programs prob. HonorBuddy in BG/PvP" so i can easily right click - report - ctrl-v, since on EU since 6.0 launch you often see 20 man BG's with around 16-18 bots, soo yea, it's getting way out of hand and ruining my game, resorting to semi afk in a corner and just spam report the bots. So get perma banned pls.. bot pve content all you want (who cares bout pve anyway?) but stay out of pvp.. (ive never reported pve / farming bots, will report all I spot in pvp tho) tl:dr - dont bot pvp
