I got 2 bots running strong, with 1 main account and 2 mule accounts atm, all under the same IP/PC One of the mule is a flagged account otherwise my bots are running strong. I've been tempted to start another bot. I'm curious if anyone else has a similar situation with 3 bots.
5 farming bots each in their own VM with individual IP addresses to prevent banning. No direct trading between accounts, use group party method and drop the items on the ground, pick up with other char. 4-5 hours per bot. Farmed 22ex and one shav in two weeks.
Holy crap that must be a ton of work managing loot. I only use one account and it's already a lot of work to figure out what to keep, what to sell, etc... How exactly do you handle that?
I have something of the same setup working. For managing loot, I just vendor everything that isn't a useful base item for the account. For instance, if I'm using a 2H build, I will vendor wands/1H/Shields and all armor with ES/EVA. Really in my mind, it's not even worth keeping this stuff until it's high enough item level for the chaos recipe. I only id gear that might be useful to the current character unless it's unique, at least 4-linked or belt/jewelry.
I am running 3 per VMs and it's working just fine. Allows me to use only 6 GB of rams per 3 instead of 3 GB per bot if I ran them separately. I just run about 12 on my PC while I can also play the game and no need to invest in a server. That way I keep it casual
