Considering an overwhelming number of bots in random battlegrounds, I've decided to launch a poll to find out what are the incentives behind this. No flaming in this thread please.
RedRussian, You missed an option: "Because everyone else does and it's a complete waste of time to try to actually play the game with five good players, fifteen retards, and a giant mound of bots chilling round a GY during the whole fight..."
The vote is missing an multiple anwser. For me, i do it for a mix of honor points if i leveled a new char, i bot on my main to get conquest points, is used my honor points on my main to buy every heirloom items and the honorable kills is a big bonus towards the honorable kill achivement. sepending on the battleground of the week i also bot to get rep. so for my main, i bot for every reason except the 522 gear ^^
I do it to kill bosses and chew bubblegum.. MR. BLIZZARD EMPLOYEE(!) DUN DUN DUUUUUUUN (Dramatic music) #TinFoilHat!
I was playing battlegrounds yesterday with a few mates. I saw an Orc Warlock botting and he had Gold Challenge mode transmog. I was thinking how stupid that guy must be.
