Fighting against bots

Hello,

I saw on the french forum that Cryptic did some cleaning on the game and banished some suspect accounts.
Well, I think it could help to show them some are still here (or came back) like those :

Mod removed image due to our rules regarding Naming and Shaming. Sorry.

There's like... 5 peoples who take 8-10 pages....
I played all day and only get like 150+ bags so it couldn't be more strange to get like X x 999 bags in 3 days.

It's something important to say and I hope Cryptic will/could do something against those bots !

Thank you and have a nice game :)

Icelusa

    The botters have realised that when mod 8 hits, their main source of income (stacks of r4s and r5s) are going to have very little value, hence the current AH mass dumping. They can't bot rank 7s so they're looking for different routes. This is one, it seems they're now going to IWD too.

    Why will rank 4's and rank 5's have very little value in module 8?

    Because you can buy a r7 with 6 trade bars, and a lockbox typically has 5-10 on top of the regular contents. And with preservation wards costing effectively 1 bar each, rank 6 and below will quickly become mostly worthless. It's the reason you can buy rank 7s on AH right now for as little as 4K whereas a couple of weeks ago they were 30K.

    Although only VIPs get a lockbox key every day, it hits the rest of the market instantly. Plus people who buy keys can get the contents of the box and effectively a rank 7 and maybe a ward on top. The demand for r7s on AH has dried up, causing massive price drops, that's caused a drop in r6 prices, and so on.
