I have stupid question. What good does it do to lock the encounter? I assume it just prevents the botters from being able to loot the chest/corpse? Is that all?

Edit: also, isn't it also agaisnt the rules to train someone, therefore possibly getting yourself into trouble too?

Ariven

because you own the encounter.. and locking it prevents other people from messing with your mobs.. there were (and may still be) reductions to possibility of loot and reductions of XP if they crossed over a certain percentage of the mobs health in damage instead of you doing it..

But.. when you lock the encounter, it prevents them from attacking the mob.. but doesnt prevent the mob from attacking THEM... you get initial aggro and "own" the encounter with a low aggro attack.. and they pull aggro with their high aggro one.. and if you do nothing, the aggro wont shift back to you..so mob goes to town, they cant kill it, they die..

Gallatee is a good GM. I was going to the bank one day and seen her by the horse seller in WFP. This was shortly after the petition system was moved out of game and she said she was there to see if everything was okay and etc. I decided to bring up some of the farmers on Perma. This was back when I was grinding out claymore quests in SoS so was there often and these two farmers in particular made it hell trying to get quest updates. Taking quest mobs, following my groups around invis and stealing the last nameds from ring events, watching us clear trash around a named then pull it before we get the chance etc etc.


I had reported/petitioned a few times and other had as well but they were still around up to no good and making real players life in SoS even more hellish then it already is (we all know SoS sucks)! So I give her the two names of these bots and tell her a few of the things they have done to me and others and she says she will look into it. Eventually I have to run and I didnt really think anything would come of it.


Well 2 days later, Enioth and Elisper were banned. No more items for sale on broker and they dissapeared from SoS for good! Gallatee actually kept her word and did something about it! When I recognized her name in one of the screenies in the OP and seen that she took care of these guys I figured i'd give her (if its a he, I apologize) some props, she actually seems to do things, keeps her word and get rid of the botters when possible. So I just wanted to say that there is some GMs out there that do actually help out in the fight against botters.

Edit: BTW I've lurked this forum for quite awhile and have enjoyed many threads lol. I made this account a bit ago, just never actually logged on it and posted. Great game forums are few and far between so keep it up LFG. Enjoy the site!
