In classic+, make all of the lucrative gold farms exclusively out in the open world

This way the bots will just get camped on PvP servers and they can flock to the PvE realms.

You could also perma ban swipers and hire GMs, but we know you’ll never do that, so at least let us PvPers put matters into our own hands.

Then get permabanned by the bot mafia who controls Blizzard HQ lol

Yes let the PvE server have cheaper consumes

Expert goldminers helmet should be evidence enough why the open world is a terrible place for lucrative gold farming items when they aught to be instanced.

Reduce the instance lockout from 5 to 4 per 60 minutes.
Add in the anti-kiting dungeon mechanics from SoM.
Every Mage or Paladin who balks should be immediately investigated for RMT.

Klonkntronk WHERE R U ! ?

I support this even though I am someone who uses a character on my main account to boost my characters on a secondary account so these changes would impact me but if that’s the sacrifice that needs to be made in order to see the elimination of boosting then so be it.

Microsoft just laid off another 9,000 employees, some of them from blizzard this past Wednesday. Wet fantasy dream if you thinking about GMs at this point. It’s not that serious

Frost Mages and Protection Paladins can still chain-clear Stratholme 24/7; these changes just put a non-insignificant dent in the GpH generated.

I also don’t care if Warriors make 5G/hour less from Stockades boosts.

Ah ok. Looks as though I was overestimating just how much of an impact the changes would have. Either way, I used a protection paladin to farm silk cloth in SM Cathedral and Runecloth in Stratholme because it was quick and easy. Had an appropriate leveled character from the second account tag along because why not. Every intention of doing it again once TBC rolls around.

Has never happened to me and I have camped and undercut bots for years. The people I know who got unlucky got it overturned extremely fast.

Let the bots try when the entire playerbase has to compete in the open world for gold.

Actually a good idea.

Blizzard please do this. Perfect solution to purge bots from PvP servers.
