It's over.

They are expirimenting with european goldbots.
I was just running through const and there are goldbots littered all over const. Wizards, 1-hands, bard, and loads of dagger rogues. Probably about 50-75 in all. Currently they are inactive or stuck, but are still taking online. This means that there's no longer goldbot free training for europeans up to high 3X-4X and much less server space for everyone.
I guess our only hope will be that the european pot delay makes them too easy to kill and the companies give up.
This isn't only on venus correct?
PS - and yes, i am very sure they are goldbots before someone asks. I would post a screenshot, but my keyboard programming is messed up and i can't take them.

Well, either the gold companies finally realized that euro parties are much more effective that solo chineseee.. or they finally realized that they were losing money from the jg tax.
Orrr, maybe they're just goldbots made by players. I know someone who runs a 6-8 wizard party at sonars and has been for a month or two now.
don't see how it's over though, there's still a limited amount of space.. just means less chinese bots spread out all over dw and ht and more concentrated 8man parties. ie, leaving more free spots to grind at

Yep, they are covering the iceshades and the rest of the ice. To come to think of it, the only higher level goldbots I have seen have been wizies. People and companies are both running the wizard ones.

Yeah I've seen these bots for awhile now at Ishades...hard to find a grinding spot.
Hmm check this out...
Go to youtube.com and search for "gold bots"
The entire first page is just all SRO related.
Hell...I'm pretty sure ALL the pages are SRO related.

i'm sorry to say but they started with euro goldbots 2-3 months after euro patch (wizzards at shades). Now Karakoram is full on my server (60+ wizzards with share parties and weapon change skills) they might try warriors @ yeti cause there are no more free spots on ice?

Old news.
Wizard goldbots are quite common, And there are just as many rogue goldbots (better at ks'ing than china bow)

Yes, people might actually learn to appreciate the chinese gold bots. This means we should be happy the euro bots are about to invade.

I thought Goldbots were the ones that stay in town and spam links to buy gold?

lolwat? Why would anyone be happy about any sort of gold bots invading? They ruin the game. Like I said earlier. Wiz gold bots have been around for forever. They kill lower level mobs fast enough to be more effective than a Chinese gold bot.

Since you have to pick the lesser of two evils, the euro bot invasion will mean that you now should appreciate the chinese bots since they dont do as much "damage".

I picked neither of the two evils.

I'd read other posts before writing anything. One wizard alone can't do a shit, except if he's hand grinding. Seen a few people trying to bow a wizard, they just quit it.
