I have bot statistics on Herod

6:45am server time. All classes I don’t associate with bots are “others”. Alliance only. Herod is majority Horde so I assume they have even more bots.

Elwynn Forest: 9 Mages 1 Hunter 2 Priests 2 other classes
Dun Morogh: 14 Mages 1 Hunter 3 other classes
Teldrasill: No players
Zul’Farrak: 50+ Mages 4 Hunters 15 Priests 1 other class
Zul’Gurub: 19 Mages 1 Hunter 0 others
Stratholme: 50+ Mages 1 Hunter 15 Priests 0 others
Scholomance: 15 Mages 4 Priests 1 other class
Blackrock Depths: 50+ mages 16 Priests 3 others
Blackrock Spire: 50+ Mages 13 Priests 0 others
Sunken Temple: 9 Mages 2 Priests 0 others
Stockades: 8 Mages 1 Priest 0 others
Dead Mines: 4 Mages 1 Priest 0 others
Winterspring: 8 Mages 3 Hunters 2 Priests 4 others
Un’goro crater: 6 Hunters 1 other
Tanaris: 23 Mages 13 Hunters 2 Priests 1 other
Feralas: 8 hunters 3 Mages 1 Priest 3 others
Maruadon: 20 Mages 3 Hunters 1 Priest 3 others
Searing Gorge: 5 Mages 1 Priest 1 other
WPL: 4 Mages 4 Hunters 3 others
Wetlands: 9 Mages 2 Priests 2 Hunters 3 others
Hinterlands: 9 Mages 18 Hunters 3 others
Ironforge: 34 Mages (No more than 5 of any other class and I can verify many are legit)
Stormwind: 21 Mages (insignificant amounts of other classes with verifiable players)
Darnassus: 1 Paladin what a loser

I omitted zones I felt didn’t have enough players to report, but even still mages/hunters dominated them.

TL;DR: this is the class makeup of the open world and dungeons in Herod and there are likely 10x more bots than real players at this time
425 Mages (4 areas had /who capped at 50 and likely have far more)
65 Hunters
75 Priests
31 Other classes (+stragglers in major cities but no more than 30)

This is just what you assume are bots are do you have something actually evidential?

The dungeon botting groups typically have Druid tanks, might be useful to check for them too.

So basically anyone who plays early in the morning on a class that is stupidly OP at farming cause class balance in classic is amazing is a bot…

I think this has to be the least evidence given for botting that I have seen on these forums which is saying something cause most people dont give much evidence anyway.

I mean there is no way people would make a mage/hunter alt for farming gold and then go to one of the best places to farm with those classes.

What?

We’ve devolved to the point: if you play class X, you’re a bot? Am I missing something?

Common sense. Feel free to do your own /whos.
