i want to know how to recognize bots in pvp match?

i played wierd match today... from start we was dominating, and very soon 2 quiters from other side was left game... however those 3 that lstay was playing kinda strange:

always using exectly same combo (ok, many ppl do)... after we kill one he immediately ignoring everything and rush to altar (ok, this also not so strange.. im doing similar).. most strange is they behavior in battle and the way they was feed us... most strange of all was, none of them was never try to run away even he is almost dead and have 3 of us on him...

this all can be only in my head tho, so i want to know how to actually see in game whos botting?

    OK this is how I identify them.

    1. They are almost always TRs. (Some rare occasions I have seen other classes I suspected)

    2. They will have real basic gear most of the time.

    3. They never use a mount.

    4. Even though they are TR they never stealth. They run up to the enemy and start throwing daggers, dazing strike, LB. (Usually killed instantly)

    5. When the match begins they will try to run into the fence continuously. Like they're trying to walk through it.

    6. They will not use chat of course (This is a given)

    7. In the event you are teamed with multiple bots they will follow the same exact pattern. They will run on top of each other and mimic the same exact movements.

    8. They will always try to go for the middle node. They never try for the front and the back one, ever.

    Be 100% sure they're not a bot before reporting them or submitting a ticket I recommend. Use chat and ask them if they are a bot first. Give them a lot of time to reply just in case they're not paying attention.

    And note these signs don't mean they're always a bot. Sometimes they're just really bad players.

    Those are good points mentioned above.

    However, most bots I've seen, have been CW's. Also, they will run to the first node and cap it if it's not in their team's control, and even once saw one using a mount (but repeating same pattern in its first moves, not talking, and continuing battling even when all its teammates had left).

    There are many possibilities, but I think I've never seen a DC or GF bot.

    All you need to do to see bots is join any PvP match and look around....

    If the guy is a TR and you win, it is a bot.

    this one i see very often... but i guess some ppl do same at least cuz they saw other doing it? (i was done it same once or twice until i find out it will teleport me back on camp fire when match start anyway)

    btw... shouldnt be easier to play against bot then real player... i mean, bots have no intelligence...

    I'm sure there are players which fall into this category too :P
