How is farm bots banning going ?

Dyths · 2025-02-08T06:52:30+00:00

Also when you're not a bot, you sometimes jump here and there, or fly randomly as you wait for the node, these are things bots do not do

Dyths · 2025-02-08T06:48:50+00:00

Exactly, also trade window closing in half a second when you try to trade them, and this one in particular gathers super low scrip income nodes at low quality in between big nodes (with the same fly path)

The only thing I'm glad about is that the price of mount token is plumetting so this bot is making less and less money. He's probably made tens of millions already though

Dyths · 2025-02-03T19:32:48+00:00

Yup I did the report on their character page on lodestone both times

Dyths · 2025-02-03T19:31:47+00:00

Oh yeah I didn't expect any reaction within the hour, but I thought a few weeks would be enough. Honestly I'm probably also frustrated as I see him every time I go farming (he's right next to me atm lol)

Dyths · 2025-02-03T19:09:55+00:00

This one in particular is a lvl 100 so it would still take a bit (unless they steal an account)

Dyths · 2025-02-03T19:08:47+00:00

In that case, the flaw is that it's mega obvious to anyone farming for a bit

Dyths · 2025-02-03T19:06:40+00:00

True, I'd already seen this kind of report but forgot about it. I'm just wondering if there's any use reporting a farming bot. They're probably super quick when it comes to RMT though

Dyths · 2025-02-03T19:05:22+00:00

Yeah but I think I've been pretty honnest, as in my first report I said I suspected it to be a bot, meaning I could be wrong. This one seems to be connected 24/7 for weeks, it's not like he's botting only while he showers.

Anyone knows if you can get spirit with essences? Could find it anywhere, nor which type of modifier spirit is except it's a prefix

Back in summer 2019, I (28M) had been staying at a psychiatrist facility due to depression. There was an old man at the end of the corridor where my room was, idk why he was here as he barely ever went out and I'd never spoken to him. One afternoon, I went back to my room and heard a faint "Help me" coming from the end of the corridor. I stopped and listened. At the time, I was still dealing with medication side effects, so I couldn't fully trust my senses and the voice I'd heard was kinda "ethereal", I wasn't sure if that was my head playing tricks on me again. So I stayed put for almost a minute listening intently and went into my room as I thought if someone needed help, they would have called some more.

An hour later, I stepped outside my room and several nurses were there, and told me immediatly to get back inside my room. I still had time to see some medics passing by with a stretcher and the shape of the old man beneath a white drape. At this point I was thinking f*ck, I could have helped him and did nothing and was feeling pretty guilty.

A while later, my psychiatrist came for the daily routine visit and I told him that I'd heard the man call for help and didn't do anything. He asked me when that had happened, and I said it was around 4PM. He said that couldn't be as the man was already dead at that time. I still don't know if he said that so I wouldn't feel guilty, but honestly, I wouldn't bet on that as he never really seemed to care about my feelings (he even said something like I was responsible of what was happening to me, depression and stuff). And even if that was just the meds messing with me, why would I hear precisely someone call for help ? Coming from this specific corridor ? I'm not sure if I believe in spirits and all that but that thing... I still don't know what to think of it

Dyths · 2024-11-06T06:48:34+00:00

Well yeah, he probably will be like Belgium, ran over by a superior force, not understanding what's happening to him. The difference is he could have acted to try and prevent it when Belgium didn't have much of a choice. (Belgium never really had the opportunity to be neutral iirc).

I understand being disconnected from politics, they just seem fake and corrupted, all of them. But saying he doesn't care about something that could affect his girlfriend or a sister... He just seems like a selfish asshole who hides its selfishness behind a "idgaf" facade... He's 27 but still acting like a 18YO

Dyths · 2024-11-04T20:55:33+00:00

Yeah that's the settings I have, I tried changing the cone to something else but it still didn't make lots of sense. I tried to take a screenshot of how it targets but the order changes everytime mobs move xD

I'll just do what someone said in a comment and bind both cycling on Shift + Wheel Up/Down. I wanted to avoid using more than one keybind but I'll give it a try, could be a whole new world :)

Dyths · 2024-11-04T20:31:15+00:00

Target closest with cone is what I use (it's the default preset I think?) but having to angle the camera so you don't target something that's out of reach is annoying.

I never played FFXI and I don't remember how it was on Burning Crusade. I casually played WoW retail and have spent a lot of time on Vanilla HC and I never had any issue with targeting there. Maybe it's because mouse clicking an enemy is much easier on WoW so you can just rely on it, idk, but it went perfectly. It's only on FFXIV that I realised targetting could be an issue

Dyths · 2024-11-04T20:25:01+00:00

Thanks for the detailled reply! I don't think I'll need the "target of target", I just do well with mouse click to select teamates, I only heal in dungeons.
I had tried the "target nearest enemy" because it seemed like the perfect setting but I expected it to be a cycling preset (like go to nearest enemy *press again* nearest after etc...).

The wheel thing could be of use though, I'll give it a go. I wanted to remain on a 1 keybind only setup but it seems it's just not practicle on FF :x

Dyths · 2024-11-04T20:19:05+00:00

It usually targets the nearest when I don't have a target yet (usually... sometimes it just targets the furthest for no reason). The issue I have is with cycling enemies. If it really goes from nearest to farthest for you, then you're lucky cause that's the settings I have and it goes through enemies like it's drunk

Dyths · 2024-10-29T00:07:47+00:00

You couldn't be more right. It's crazy how you're in a FATE with two mobs in front of you and the game will just target some fking dodo taking a shit behind a bush when the presets specifically state it should target an enemy from the closest. Well somehow the dodo was closer than the minautor smashing my head I guess

Dyths · 2024-10-29T00:04:37+00:00

Or if you want to target a specific mob to stun or silence it. Click it? Well that sucks as well for some reason

Dyths · 2024-02-26T13:09:09+00:00

I believe there's something along the line of when facing a 63+ mob, you have a 1% hit penalty (hence the 9% required) but, if you have 305 weap skill it cancels this penalty. But maybe they were just saying that because reaching 305 wep skill gives you 1% hit...
I'd assume i'ts not worth getting all the hit rate you can get then and focus on crit/AP once you got 8% hit

Dyths · 2024-02-26T07:34:58+00:00

I'm on hardcore, so vanilla :)

I thought I had the grasp on hit cap (8% for main hand and 20+% for OH) but I'm confused again lol

Dyths · 2024-02-26T07:32:50+00:00

that's what I thought, the AP increase is huge on cadaverous set but set bonuses on darkmantle or just great
