Remove bots from PvP ASAP

This is really starting to get out of control, lots of kick bots and rotation bots in solo shuffle lobbies lately. They all behave the same, walk straight forward into middle of room then start a perfect dps rotation bot and react INSTANTLY (literally) to any cc in game. Things like automated ring of peace into a priest healing dome, automated Sanctuary from a ret paladin to remove CC from team, instant kicks that are literally faster than a duped cast… it’s really blatant. There are a lot of clips going around such as https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dmwd4c_oPl0

Please make this a priority and take swift action against the cheaters, the community would really appreciate it. I have reported them in game but we know that does nothing since I have reported gathering bots in the world daily for months on end to no avail. SO here I am asking for action…

a lot of hunters using bots/script/hacks to instantly Disengage when griped by DKs nullifying the grip, this hacks are getting insane !

I do this every time I queue into a dk on my moonkin, it’s really not difficult. They have a second charge of grip to make it not matter even lmao

Flagged for trolling, the botting is a fact and there is plenty of videos of it on youtube. Doesn’t take long to find the cheats on google but not allowed to link here obviously.

I mean pressing 1 button when the enemy presses their 1 button isn’t that hard…

Not my fault you are 1550 rated and can’t recognise difference between bot and player.

I’ll explain it on the small chance you will listen and learn something.

In the video I linked, look at vanguards on his priest bait the bot into proving it was botting.

He throws a Priest Dome damage reduction in the middle of nowhere. Now real players seeing this dome would laugh at the misplay and be glad it was wasted and continue playing the game.

The bot he baited though did exactly as it was programmed, it INSTANTLY (faster than humanly possible) with perfect accuracy, put a ring of peace in the Dome. Now ring of peace is a good answer to Dome if enemy was in the dome and needed to be knocked out, but the simplicity of that bot was “If Dome, Ring of peace @ Dome” and gave itself away.

There are many other tells with cheats and bots but that was the easiest one to prove and learn from if you aren’t a close minded troll.

Those kind of plays just come with experience. Don’t call anyone better than you a bot with no proof :robot:

I don’t know, that Dome - RoP was pretty good evidence.

100% there are bots

  1. Bots
  2. Scripters (even if they are pros’)
  3. Carry’s , including from Streamers for money aka subs

should all trigger perma bans ( it creates an unfair advantage)

Carries are too annoying to try and prove for blizzard so they won’t ever ban it. No point in even bringing it up.

is it hard to look at the same stream that blizzard looked at for botting
they are usually the streamers who get “paid” by subs and do carrys who complain the loudest and put up video’s

kill 2 birds with one stone

I’m perfectly happy for streamers to carry other players, regardless of the incentive they use. The player themselves have to at least be playing the game, they won’t remain at the rank they get and it’s painfully obvious when you play against them.

Automated bots and scripts, however, those are cancer.

You’re fried if you think blizz is looking at any streams for botting.

The problem you’ll run into is these guys are queing with literally anyone, you don’t have to sub to them to get in on the action so by blizzards definition it’s not a paid carry.

Lol what? Disengaging a grip is easy. I’m not denying that botting isn’t happening, but hunter disengaging a grip? Come on, get a grip.

those fall through the map glitches look so easily replicated. is anyone in game rn to war game test? Robbo#11227

Google “wow pvp arena bots” and see what’s possible…

It’s actually pretty depressing to see such advanced bots play.

I pulled this from one of those sites after looking for about 30 seconds…

“ So I made an advanced AI bot that played an arena healer for me. It plays paladin and druid, fully autonomously. The druid plays at duelist level.”

It goes on and on but you get the idea…

He goes on to say it’s happening in retail too.

no one is going after Venruki so calm down

You’re weird.

say it loud enough to that mirror

I think you should follow your own advice here.
