I bought a key a year ago but lost interest in the game soon after I bought legion. I came back about a week ago or so and still had some time on my account so I fired up honorbuddy and leveled up a shaman for a day or two. Kept having issues with the bot performance so I made a post about it, few hours later my key was deactivated. Fast forward about a week, I hadn't used honorbuddy since then (no active key) and for almost a year before then and I tried to log on tonight and I was banned. I think the problem for Bossland right now is two fold, frist off the bot is robotic as hell. Anyone who has used it or seen a video of someone using it knows exactly how it acts. It has no randomization, no semblance of humanity and does some of the most idiotic "That's a bot Jim" things. For example the illogical pathing and stuck on easily avoided objects with the most convoluted unstuck actions I've ever seen. When honorbuddy was bigger, before it became apparent that they could detect it people were often banned via reporting. I assume that was how I got caught, any invisible GM watching the account for a few seconds could easily identify it as a bot. So your problem now is two fold, in my opinion. One your bot isn't good enough to avoid simple casual player detection and you can't beat warden. It seems illogical to pretend your solution rests solely in warden/tripwire when the bot itself will get you caught by some 48 casual mother of six.
That was always the case, HB was always navigating in a robotic way and gets stuck on everything, which causes players to Report you. and true, HB is not able to detect warden in time, only after players report their BAN it will be triggered. the 1st week i got HB (years ago) i noticed that but still took the risk(lost permanently over 10 accts). this is pretty simple guys, if you're not willing to risk your account DO NOT BOT !
Ofcourse this is bullshitery... It is not like you bot with the intention of getting banned. That you do something against the rules that the other side has MADE up doesn't mean it is always fair or you should agree with it (or even enforce it at all). That you accept it that you look like a drone while that problem could be fixed by the honorbuddy team says enough. The only reason I never used honorbuddy is because of this and funny enough I've never seen a bot like it. Every bot comes and go, some some sooner than others but in the end honorbuddy still looks like shit. Somethings change, while other don't...
Tony can the robot actions be fix I do not bot at all and I can tell a bot in the game when it is running into a wall for 30 mins The AI needs fixing that is for sure But blizzard is doing a detection of the bot some how with warden I say just like a virus scanner does with a virus it is spyware and works no different to a virus scanner does (Warden)
