Letter to a LB autobotter:

[Hartholzwurm]

Dear XXX (I do not want to give your name here),

today I've been farming PVE kills in Hauntlet for about an hour. I often came with you in the map, because unfortunately you forgot to do a soloparty. I hope you are not angry with me for stealing some of your hard earned kills in a fair way during that time (I did some screenshots and a nice video for that). Maybe it's possible that you'll autobot one more hour to get your kills. But do not forget to activate soloparty this time.

Before i forget: I reporded you because I disapprove of such behavior. I hope a Dev kicks you out of the game.

Have a nice day.

How do you know if someone is an autobotter? They can just be running constantly.

Yeah sure - and the one does not answer when i call him a botter im pm, always moves the same, always uses the same skills exactly at the same time, leaves the map after exactly the same time and above all - he often fights against a blank map in first hauntlet room, because I have already killed the opponents there.........perhaps you're right and the player is just very short-sighted and has forgotten his glasses 😁

No sorry,
I can not pixelate the name in the video and therefore i keep it as proof for me.
Of course, the video shows that the guy is battling the air while I am already running in the second room.

I can confirm, ive seen this too. Its not a single macro user, some are/were even on top players lb. They are the reason i have stopped farming kills.

[Hartholzwurm]

Lol....i just logged in game and jumped into hauntlet. This guy is still farming pve there. If you wanna see him......just jump in haunt and wait for a min or so 😁

[Thewolfbull]

This is why PvE kills need to be only in m5+/make PvE farm maps random at start...atleast then there is no way these cheaters get kills

[jade10]

Confirmed hahahaha i saw it mu self now lols this is unfair hahahaha

I belive you, but for honest and fair LB runner it's a shame if those a##ho##s reach the top ranks without consequences.

I hope a Dev reads this post and does something about this guy.

[deathhbringer]

hahaha i see that macro user still farming there

[sellall]

I farm there sometimes for kills and I do it because I can watch TV at the same time. Often, I am still spamming buttons, even though the mobs are long dead because I'm paying attention to the TV. I hope this isn't me you're accusing lol :hypnotysed:

You are saying that you actually are there and are just sometimes afkish. This means that you sometimes look at your game screen, so you see that someone spoke to you. Or cut your moves short because you just realized you can move on, i.e that your moves and timing differ from before or from battling air. Good for you. Hart is not talking about you.

I am saying that I attack the air in hauntlet too. And I don't respond to pms from people I don't know or accept their friend or party requests. That does not mean I am botting. It means I am watching TV and I don't want to chat. Just playing devil's advocate cuz what's described is something I do sometimes

yeh, im guilty of doing the same thing. But the difference between a macro and regular plays is there attack pattern I believe. Its the same pattern everytime. Normal Joes like us regular plays aren't good enough to EXACTLY mimic every run :P

[Suentous PO]

Sorry to say, but I think kills in hauntlet should not count anymore,
besides agreeing that person should be banned along with all botters.
It's no accomplishment if you can spam skills while watching tv.

I think their scripts may be causing lag in towns making me dc

I don’t think they should take away pve kills in the hauntlet .. some ppl enjoy farming pve kills .. it’s not hurting anyone . I do for no particular reason . It just feels good to hit that 1m goal you may have set for yourself

[Thewolfbull]

Make a new Elite PvE counter that is only for endgame maps that have random starts and swap it with current leaderboard kills that would fix it and would also make the top player leaderboard even more competitive and fun :) also there isn't really a way to be 100% sure if they are botting/have botted or not. A new hard mobs PvE counter that only counts on unbottable maps would make it fair for everyone :)

[Scalpel]

I feel that if hauntlet gives PvE kills, that all maps should give PvE kills also.

That's true since everything in there can be one shot, just like in other maps such as Brackenridge or Kraken stuff.

It's pretty bad how a level 71 doesn't get the kills counted in maps like Elite Ren'gol.

[jade10]

I remember dev explained regarding hauntlet.
If im not mistaken..

Is to late to fix botting. I find I funny u wanna fix it now just cuz ur on lb. Top player is a joke bcuz of those pve kills. Some have over 5m and it's obvious not from legit playing. It would be wise if sts just took pve kills off lb cuz it's not really a skill to farm them. It really comes down to how long you've played this game too. If you've played since 2013 it means they've had a lot of time to fake their pve kills. I suggest u just keep farming kills as well cuz nothing will change unfortunately

[Ravisher]

removing pve kills in hauntlet wouldn't help. i myself enjoy playing hauntlet all day without looking at my pve kills and only do look at it after a 3-5 hours of hauntlet runs. hauntlet is the only pve counted map that most ppl starting from newbie to a lb player can run without adding deaths in their kdr. plus the great rewards after collecting tons of hauntlet coins. we should be considerate of other players including me as a average player in the benefits and the assurance of kills and rewards from running the hauntlet.

[Kakashis]

Report video to STS and bye bye player!

[Captainrock]

I agree with you that there are micro users taking advantage of this map but what about other players?think about them
Hauntlet is only map where people can farm kills and other maps are way to hard to get.

And nowadays every guild requires you to have a decent pve kills
And after level 61 most maps don’t count kills and some maps do but they are way to hard.
For old players it was easier to get 100k+ pve kills from tombs but what about new players where will they farm?in mausoleum where you can farm deaths instead of kills.
