    And to that I say you can still claim without bots. It'll be lower chance, but you put in less time, you should claim less.


    Edit:
    To byte, I read it and ignored it. Windower is not undetectable, its just undetectable server side. And thats not even entirely true, there are certain tendencies that aren't necessarily dead giveaways, but if theyre consistent you can guess who uses windower and who doesn't.

    Also it might make work for se, but if you break windower enough, the developers will stop wanting to fix it. It might get patched n times, but after n+1 i'm sure the guys in charge will have enough.

It's gonna be a hit guys.
    There's something incredibly ironic about someone who posts 'stop repeating this shit!' in every 'botting sucks' thread. Especially when they start backseat modding about what's bannable and what's not.

    I don't want some random scrub linkshell to decide that they can have a fair shot and get a ridill that i've been camping for my friends for a year and a half. After taking 65 minutes and nearly wiping to wings 4 times.

    Things like this will draw so many people to do, most of them without the dedication to learn how to fight these monsters, lag the zones, and generally give gear to slob players.

    There are ways to increase your claiming without bots, if you're not even willing to look into that and try and do an event as it has stood for years, you don't deserve to win the claim on a completely lottery claimed mob. Bots or not it invalidates years that people have dedicated in da/vos/bd.

    Go out there and try and claim, bots or not and I'll give you credit, you at least tried to pay attention. Slobs who waste what they win from the lottery are still slobs. They might have something nice from winning the lottery, that doesn't make them better.
    Your post doesn't make a lot of sense.

    Comparing the RNG of the game to botting is ridiculous.

    For all those that don't understand, no one is saying that gear should be distributed equally. Instead, they are saying that everyone should have an equal chance to claim. Botting obviously destroys that equal chance through cheating.

    Please stop comparing drop rates and botting, it really is just dumb.

    And I'm saying if shit spawns right in your face after 5 minutes to the other guy's 5 hours, congratulations, you got lucky. If the drop is like 5% and you go 1/1 because of this, congratulations, everyone's now jealous of you. Doesn't matter if it's Mee Deggi or Faffhog. As far as the game's concerned, a mob's a mob. Setups that encourage botting are unhealthy setups, plain and simple.

    Even a flat-up lottery would be better. At least then everyone has an equal chance of winning.

    The guy who showed up after 5 hours and got the claim is lucky, just like the guy who spammed and got the claim was lucky. Still sucks for you that you lost. But at least the guy tried, and in the case of mee deegi he actively had to try and claim it, didn't just walk into zone and get free mob. You stopped paying attention and didnt claim. Thats your fault.


    And ring, if 5 lses claim a mob the same number of times, they all have a equal chance of getting a drop. percents are still percents whether you take them out of 100, or 20. Drop rates are still equal, unless you count the number of times a linkshell has been in zone and award them higher drop rates for that.

    No you thick skulled retard. I'm bitching that what has been said has been said ten million times already. Why don't you get some reading comprehension and come back? Show me where I said anything that I am against the fixing of bots or a new method.

    My selective reading reading doesn't have time for you anymore.

    I really don't understand why you are having a hard time with this. The RNG for drops has nothing to do with botting.

    People bot because it increases their claim rate and thus gives them more chances at the RNG. If it didn't people wouldn't bot.

    Drop rates don't matter if you don't get claim. And to respond to your specific comment, bots let people not pay attention and still claim. Even in your (bizzaro) vision of the world bots would still be illegitimate.

    Exactly the point, if you give everyone an equal chance to claim, whether theyre skilled at killing FF or not, they pay attention at ff window or not, everyone has equal chance at the mob. I'm saying simply work in should equal work out. I don't expect to claim FF if i fall asleep at window.

    Bots break the game. A solution to the problem isn't making it so the game doesn't work as initially designed. Break the bots, not the game.

    Here's a solution that makes more sense to me. Have se set up a website and have all linkshells that want a chance at a ridill to register on that website. The assign a random order to all the linkshells and give them a one day where they have the mob alone to themselves, and mark who gets the mob each day on the calendar. At least this way I don't have to stand in zone and watch the people who didn't try to even spam claim still win the mob.
