I’m no expert but the way it works is because players have access to the API. Literally a player can read every single piece of data being distributed in the game…in order for anything to happen checks are made for conditions. If all of this data is openly available then the person juking, if using a script would indeed know the kick was incoming. This is the whole reason add-ons work…the server has to receive the information from the key press and then send it back to the player. If someone can read that data and write a bot to react to conditions…it’s extremely easy and possible to have a jukebot. There are more than several sites where you can pay 25$ for guaranteed rating for these reasons. You can actually go online right now and buy a bot that will play 100% perfectly for you no matter what. It is reading and reacting to data provided by the game. Literally anyone can do it.
If condition = casting - then kick
If condition = incoming kick - stop casting.
We aren’t talking about players here. We’re talking about bots that can react literally millions of times faster than a human will ever be able to. If the data is available to read then the person juking will know that the player got the kick button 100% of the time because the kick cast can’t be stopped until the kick button is pressed. In order for any of the game to work at all this has to be done. Someone playing a man in the middle bot that reads and reacts to the data faster than humanly possible is always gonna basically be able to do whatever the best option is for that specific scenario.
They are hacks, xploit users, bot user, and traders, no matter how many reports you sent or even if you send a video, the answer is always the same, continius do it, that what Gm says, in another world, they are doing nothing. we have to wait for programmers patch, but gm are gonna do nothing of nothing. becouse we dont have GM inside of the game. no one is monitoring the game. you can cheat all that you want. im no playing the game anymore, becouse y only play for pvp, maybe im coming back the next expancion when the administrations system change.
The way blizzard goes about it is probably the most effective overall tbh. If they just ban the botters as they come, it becomes a game of wack-a-mole and the script makers are able to continuously adapt to an everchanging bot meta as they receive ban data.
If blizzard does what they currently do and send out mass banwaves every once in a while, it sets them much further back and has a much bigger impact. There’s no perfect solution, but paradoxically, botting would be much worse if blizzard banned people more reactively on an individual basis instead of collecting mass amounts of data and banning thousands of people at once.
Idk about juke bots but I ran into a dude yesterday i’m 90% sure was using a kick bot.
He always kicked me .5 seconds into my spells. My cast bar barely had time to show up before I was locked. One time he stood there for a second after kicking me like even he was surprised how fast it happened. Still killed him though so it’s fine lol
Its soo SCUMMY, the company that does nothing to stop it, and in a sense allows it by inaction and indifference towards its own player base.
Did a Solo Shuffle Healer + Dps from one server, other healer and Dps from the same server, and 2 random players. I literally saw them throwing and not healing. Openly win trading with the Queue Sync exploit. The one account that was being boosted, they will farm it up to 18, 21, 2400 or whatever they purchased, rinse and repeat. That is why player participation is low. Real Money boosters once again have ran off the player base leaving another DEAD season lol.
What you’re suggesting here though is a mechanical impossibility.
And you aren’t backing these claims with tangible proof.
And you’re going on the personal offensive with (pretty weak) banter against seasoned good-faith vets who are actually interested in this discussion so
For these reasons I’m going to have to ask you to leave Chuck E. Cheese. You don’t have to cook at home but you can’t cook here.
As survival, I encounter these types of bots NON-stop. Before you go on passing judgement, or claiming skill issues - I’ve seen things like warriors reflecting disarms perfectly (and consitently) (usually with a travel time involved), priests fading traps despite standing on top of them.
And yes, I’ve staggered them throughout the game. It got so silly that I even had a priest hitting fade instantly despite me trapping their dps. You can use your imagination to what else you could apply this to, jukes, kicks, etc.
Then I thought about this, and found how easy this is to develop. All you need it a weakaura and a simple 10 line python script. The weakaura flares up when someone casts a specific spell at you, and the Python script to keep checking a pixel to see if it’s changed color that you set your weakaura to. This isn’t rocket science, and for the people on this thread denying that are either cheating themselves - or don’t understand how any of this works. So if you do this, first off - GTFO. Secondly, I hope you idiots get punished for this, it’s not smart or clever - you’re a script kiddy and will lead the game mode to death.
Literally can get this coded and working in 10 minutes.
When someone reflects updwards of 8-10 disarms in a single game despite them being staggered; yeah, I’d say so. Seriously not a single disarm landed, that’s how fast the reaction was.
Sticky tar bomb, there’s a travel time that’s pretty quick - but it does fly through the air. A normal player wouldn’t have the reaction time to reflect it that quickly. I get there are moments when players hit reflect (with avatar, storm bolt, etc) - but I’ve accounted for that before. Started throwing them randomly. Once again just before it hits them, a reflect comes up.
Like in my earlier post, this is easy to put together with weakauras and a simple python script.
