For me personally i played the game legit for the longest time. Farmed a lot of classes like pyro , cryo , eternal, blaze binder, stone crusher , master ranger , shaman,... and i looooove playing the story , i genuinely watch all the cutscenes and immerse myself into the story. However when i got to the endgame , let me tell you smthn , there is nothing in this entire world that will force me into farming legion revenant legit.
If you farmed using a bot - You're a cheater If you farmed legitimately - You have no life and enjoy making your fingers hurt. There's no winning on this one. Like, you're pretty much f***ed anyway on either side of the argument. I blame AE on why this argument existed in the first place.
Twelve years ago, we were all kids and played genuinely. As we grew older and started high school, we started hitting during school hours and playing at home. Now we are adults, work 9-5, go home, and have more work to do. So we check the bot once before bed and once when we wake up. And then we do ultras on weekends…
The thing is, we all played legit when we were kids. I'm 24 now. I teach at the university as a lecturer. I don't have time to play. And when I rarely do, I want to chill in Yulgar, talk to peeps, do some quests, and help others. Hence, I want to not get outdated. Otherwise, every time I hop on, I'll still be trying to get to level 100.
Its important Artix Entertainment realises why the playerbase plays AQW. We literally just hop on to chill, chat, relax and have fun. So the common misconception, but botting ruins the game, is false. Reason why botting ruins games is because people bot for resources or items, and then trade them in game for cheap prices as they can just bot it for free anyways. This damages the game's economy, as the normal player can't compete in trading to get rich. However with AQW none of that matters. Botting just makes the game so much more fun. I have the game botting on my second screen while I'm working on my research and doing other things. It makes you feel like you are progressing both in AQW and real life. You no longer have the stress of time management where if you choose to play AQW you'll lose opportunities in real life.

There was a moment where (I think it was Alina) a Twett was published for voting, asking people if they wanted to add an automatic attack, when I saw it I thought that everyone would agree, but I was even more surprised when the vast majority said that No. To this day I can't find that Twett, but there I realized that the vast majority of players only play to play, they are not interested in the story, the scenes, how something looks, they are only interested in farming something "difficult", saving it in the bank and never use it. I told a friend about it, imagine botting away everything, if so, what are you playing for?

Last year i played this game quite a bit having missed the nostalgia. It was summer break so i realistically had all the time in the world. At some point i started using autohotkey to spam buttons for me so i could at least watch youtube videos on my phone or something. Eventually though i realized "Why the hell am i doing this?" and after considering botting or quitting the game, i chose the latter. Not botting felt like a waste of time. Using autohotkey was the same waste of time except it made me feel like i cheated the system by being able to progress while being "productive", which really just meant watching random youtube videos on my phone since i had to watch over the game for 70% of the time anyways. Therefore i quit the game. Loved the game, loved the classes, loved the cosmetics, loved the ultrabosses, loved the lore, and even loved the grind, but god damn does it drain your life if you don't bot.
@@JoaoGOW300 Why does it really matter? We all play games to waste time or to earn something In game to use later. At the end of the day, farming for an item in a game, by killing ads whether it a boss or not.... will always be such regardless of what the game is. Its just a loop like all the other games that have you do the exact same loot. AQW just gives DRASTIC requirements. If they made the game flow better and freely and removed the egregious requirements for items it would be less of an issue. AQ3D should have done this.... but nah. I mean... People sit afk in areas for hours at end days, months or even years.... worse principle tbh. Logging on to quite literally... go away from keyboard.
as a player who recently returned i can say that they (AE) works in a very good direction in reducing the bots and it seems to work as when I quit the game years ago it was ONLY botting. 1 example is ultra bosses imo thats the way to go, it makes the game complex makes you team up with random guys or guildies and just kill the boss it brings satisfaction, afterwards most of the endgame items are gotten from there (insignias) . Another thing that benefits regular players in farming is the quest turn-in wherever you are and auto reaccept. Its a slow process but its happening ive never seen so many active players in aqw in previous years. I mean yes there are say 3500 active at a time at most time but the percentage of these people being "by hand" is significantly higher. + i find myself in many situations that botting players are beneficial for my farm xD. Thumbs up
Yep. At this point just integrate some kind of bot to the game is not even gonna hurt the game experience since most interactions you will ever get is from yulgar anyway. Maybe it will even help people interacting more if I’m being optimistic, because botter will not type because of shame and all that.
Introducing raids would also be a great option to discourage botting as long as the raid has mechanics so its not bottable. At the end of the Nation raid you can complete the daily raid quest which allows you to choose one Nulgath resource, for example a Roentgenium or even 2 or 3.
Ngl botters have helped me a lot, like a lot. I just goto em whenever I'm farming for a quest, and whenever I'm farming bosses that takes time to kill they're there lol Tbh I don't mind em, i just play and afk.
honestly i grinded vhl and lr and that took me an entire week + 2 days of honest grinding of 8-12 hours a day and after that i started another grind that is harder then both put together. one grind required me to sit in the same spot for 30 hours just for 1 out of 8 item requirements. and my fingers started hurting after the lr and vhl grind that i couldnt push buttons for another 60 hours. so i resulted to botting. i actually like it cause i can actually pay attention to other things other then spamming 2 buttons for 30 hours while not being able to do anything else. i dont abuse it like teleporting all over the place tho. i only use it when i have to sit in 1 spot for countless hours, i pretty much use it like an idle button and thats all. i do not abuse teleporting and auto quest farming, just the auto battle feature. i also think they might aswell make this an idle game. honestly they just shouldnt have made the grind so ridiculous and time consuming cause it honestly feels like this game is "trying to get you to bot" anyone doing these grinds honestly i feel sorry for them. im not spending months pushing 2 buttons for hours on end. either they make the grinds more interactive or add an idle button cause atm the game is literally forcing you to bot.
Tbh i dont know how you farmed vhl and lr that took u so long, I did them both before the launch of insignias maximum 3-4 hr per day and easily got em both with my health and sanity intact
Facts bro 100% percent agree you will not catch me grinding for NSOD just to have a 51% damage weapon just to compete with the meta lol I have responsibilities and a life
tbh I sometime go to a private room and have an autoclicker and just spam skill 3 with AM when farming stuff like Escherion. But it really is annoying when a botter shows up in fights like the void bosses cuz they: 1 don't do shit, 2 occupy room from someone else who would've been actually useful, 3 discourage other players and may make them leave, and 4 they cash out on something they're actively making harder to do.
Honestly, instead of trying to ban bottlers. They should add more items for people to buy for the respective ultra bosses. For example, instead of bottling for the Chaos Slayer class, you can kill Ultra Drakath and get Chaos Slayer. This encourages team play, as you need four people to do Ultra Drakath. Similarly, instead of bottling Void Highlord, you can now get Void Highlord with a 1% drop from killing Ultra Nulgath.
i remember them banning botters back in the absolute peak of aqw, it legitimately gutted the playerbase to the point where they started closing down other servers cause it wasn't as populated as before
If you want to play with genuine players, the best way is to look for a guild. There’ll be a Discord guild where you can play and chat with other people. But even then, most guild mates have work, so there's not much to play legit.
I’ve never been boting and farmed pretty much every hard item,but ye sometimes is boring some of the quest are awful but it is still fun grinding 10 hours each day after new hard farm release and no need for boting if you actually like to play the game
their ways of catching botters has always been primitive anyways. i remember they had a "dev backdoor" shop years ago to catch people shop loading from their new way of tracking ac tagged items specifically. or them updating one of the packets that the bot client sent, so anyone playing officially was sending the new updated one to the server and the bot client was sending the old one. i think their best bet is focusing on infinity and implementing server side checks that way.
6:21 that farm is really the only way to get ACs for non-mems and is painfully slower than non free methods. Legion needs the same overhaul that Nulgath drops got so that people would stop botting for stuff.
People just need to enjoy the stories and early level. Not just the grinds that were meant for hardcore players. When u think from day 1 u need lv 90 and LR to farm other things ofc ure gonna bot. My suggestion is to experiment with servers, like low level server, non-bot server, even bot server, etc
2008 player here and took a break of 13 years. man i spammed the shit out of auto clicker but didnt bot honestly. some auto clicker inside game would be great
i only use auto attack at bot launcher but i'm not abusing it just to use teleportation or shop id's quest id's something like that, like the /starfield map you can see the quest there is you need to kill a 1M enemy to get a 1M Star Destroyed Misc. Item for the Quest.
Report them. Even though botters is normal and I accept that, botters should be mindful when they use them, moreover if it directly impact other player
i miss this game its been years since i played sadly my account is already banned cause it got hacked. wish i could play this again with my old account dont wanna start from the start again.
Personally I usually only use ahk scripts to press a sequences of skills so I don't need to actually press it as I remember doing the LR quest and my fingers were giving up on me at one point. I had enough from there. While I don't usually use a more advanced bot to teleport around to play as I do like looking at maps and the art though.
I am not against it. There are people who are capable of making their own bots by reading through the quest info and getting the ids and stuff. Also it is done as some of the requirements in quests are like killing the same monster or mob for like 10k times, which takes a lot of time and is boring as hell. A simple option like auto kill would be game changing. Surely people cant do ultras with it so there are still stuff people must do manually.
For me personally is to grindy, and now that i v grown up and i have a job and other priorities, i don t have enough time at all to farm how i used to do so yea, for me personally i need to use that bot
@@krong-bi2ewTotally agree, just dont play lol, botters everywhere ruining comps and just spamming 1 skill just hoarding the room and taking space for actual players to farm

What bit are you guys using now? I played in 2014 and lost my account. No way I’m honestly grinding those items the legit way this time around. Please send me bot names
I've downloaded Grimlite Rev for a brand new account just for some tests, it's really useful if you don't have time for end game items or even playing the whole game, there are scripts for a lot things in game
As much as I like playing aqw after coming back to try it again after a couple years I can't sit there killing the same monsters a couple hundred times so I ended up downloading a auto key presser and have it pressing 1 through 5 😂 it works for adds and some bosses but I actually like killing the bosses my self
I came back to the game about 6 months ago, 14 year account. Told myself I wouldn't bot and try to play legit. Played for about a day and said FUCK THIS and downloaded SKUA lol. At the end of the day it's an 08 flash game MMO with no engaging gameplay paired with some of the most insane farms I've ever seen in a video game. I can't comprehend how somebody could legitimately farm for these endgame items. It's mind numbingly boring and repetitive, but in order to look cool and deal max damage (NSOD/VHL for example) you HAVE to do these farms. Now I have basically every single endgame item one could want, hell, I got hollowborn caladbolg in two days. I really only play for the nostalgia and the occasional ultra boss.
Broo!! I didn't know there is botters. i farmed for VdK, VhL and DoT for a year and a half, before that i even farmed for YnR for half a yr. Thats just YnR didnt even include the waiting for free ACs so i could buy the undead warrior
I was banned for 3 days due to botting. I just think the farms are so tedious and boring that it insentivises botting too much. Like why should I be forced to spam my abilities for 10 hours. If the farms were more "quest based" and "progression based" where you can enjoy the story and not spam as much ,I would absoluetly not bot.
literally just said this today: Add auto farm/ bot options, and people will play more, it will spike in popularity, just make it like afk arena bro xd but not turn based.
I don't have problems with botter because that was like 90% of the players even if they said "they never bots" or "they hate bots" (Not trying to be hypocrite) cause i also bots sometimes if i play on internet cafe (cause i don't have pc, im puffin players) The only problem with botters is that they botting the daily quest at the /Void party bosses
I have 6 heropoints that were given to me by the game, but i have no idea which calendar class to get there are so many choices. Any recommendations? Any overpowered heropoint classes?
every chrono class are overpowered. it just depends on what you need. on farming u have ncm. on highest nuke solo and party TCM on highest nuke party CDK on party damage QCM others. personally I would recommend QCM since you will need it on most ultra bosses.
My favorite personally is Necromatic Chronomancer, its good for farming, AOE and has good sustain. Its not good for boss fighting, but ill be honest the class can do 95% of the content.
I do my ultras, I farm gold, legion tokens, and nulgath stuff, do story and releases normally with my friends and guild. but I do use bots for tedious stuff while I work, or spend time with my wife and kids, I'm not gonna stand still killing the same guy 50.000 times for hours just to get a 51% weapon... if you play legit, congrats? I just feel like its a waste of time if you are doing it alone.
this game just isn't worth the grind. it was back in the day. it was fun. engaging. now it's just the same mid crap every single release. not even hard farms. just tedious and long for absolutely no reason. i'd rather have farming dailies than having to literally grind for an item that's simply not worth the grind.
its not like botting is ruining the game to other players its true that the items that are hard to farm will lose its worth but it cant be compare to other games hacks botting doesnt ruin the game to other players.
is like 70% of the players are botting, keeping the game alive everytime I go and grind for items I see people tping everywhere VHL attacking from distamces despite having short range attacks (some infinite)..
ngl i part time bot somewhat. whenever im working or dont want to sit there spamming 4325 ad nauseam on lr while doing some farms, or 241114321142113 on tk where if i mess up once or twice my damage is damn near halved while doing high hp bosses. if they just added a macro option in game i would be happy.
AE should allow idling tbh but their so money hungry that it won't even happen if AE keeps banning bots not a soul will keep playing AQW forever and AE would lose all the people that they owned like botting never hurt anyone it's just people rather not do things legit and just let the bot do it cause it get's extremely boring on AQW that's why some of the many has left it for years until they re-visit again so AE should allow something cause if they allowed AQW lite into their game they should also allow AFK farming auto fight and auto use skills

Facts bro 100% percent agree you will not catch me grinding for NSOD just to have a 51% damage weapon just to compete with the meta lol I have responsibilities and a life
tbh I sometime go to a private room and have an autoclicker and just spam skill 3 with AM when farming stuff like Escherion. But it really is annoying when a botter shows up in fights like the void bosses cuz they: 1 don't do shit, 2 occupy room from someone else who would've been actually useful, 3 discourage other players and may make them leave, and 4 they cash out on something they're actively making harder to do.
Honestly, instead of trying to ban bottlers. They should add more items for people to buy for the respective ultra bosses. For example, instead of bottling for the Chaos Slayer class, you can kill Ultra Drakath and get Chaos Slayer. This encourages team play, as you need four people to do Ultra Drakath.
Similarly, instead of bottling Void Highlord, you can now get Void Highlord with a 1% drop from killing Ultra Nulgath.
Was half a decade ago now it feels like I clicked on the same video by a similar CC about the same thing. Same ol' story
Bold of you to think its only 30% of the gamers. The only solution is to normalize soft botting inside the launcher.
i remember them banning botters back in the absolute peak of aqw, it legitimately gutted the playerbase to the point where they started closing down other servers cause it wasn't as populated as before
If you want to play with genuine players, the best way is to look for a guild. There’ll be a Discord guild where you can play and chat with other people. But even then, most guild mates have work, so there's not much to play legit.
I’ve never been boting and farmed pretty much every hard item,but ye sometimes is boring some of the quest are awful but it is still fun grinding 10 hours each day after new hard farm release and no need for boting if you actually like to play the game
And I would start locking new items or classes introduced to the game behind ultra bosses of the relevant faction.
And the next thing, start adding more dailies. We have 15 minutes a day to do dailies for a class. We don't have 8 hours to grind some item.
their ways of catching botters has always been primitive anyways. i remember they had a "dev backdoor" shop years ago to catch people shop loading from their new way of tracking ac tagged items specifically. or them updating one of the packets that the bot client sent, so anyone playing officially was sending the new updated one to the server and the bot client was sending the old one. i think their best bet is focusing on infinity and implementing server side checks that way.
6:21 that farm is really the only way to get ACs for non-mems and is painfully slower than non free methods. Legion needs the same overhaul that Nulgath drops got so that people would stop botting for stuff.
Sadly the game isn't playable without bots. If your not a child that is(who may have more time to mindlessly click)
Nope.....it still playable...its just your mentality😂
makes sense, and sometimes not everyone has time for farming
@@XBeet13 ... Well your entitled to your opinion of what you consider playable
may be a hot take but imo botters are just so impatient and want everything the quick and easy way
People just need to enjoy the stories and early level. Not just the grinds that were meant for hardcore players. When u think from day 1 u need lv 90 and LR to farm other things ofc ure gonna bot.
My suggestion is to experiment with servers, like low level server, non-bot server, even bot server, etc
2008 player here and took a break of 13 years. man i spammed the shit out of auto clicker but didnt bot honestly. some auto clicker inside game would be great
i only use auto attack at bot launcher but i'm not abusing it just to use teleportation or shop id's quest id's something like that, like the /starfield map you can see the quest there is you need to kill a 1M enemy to get a 1M Star Destroyed Misc. Item for the Quest.
I had to bot to get void highlord im sorry but I don’t think I would have the time to do allda 😭
What about the people using anti afk bot in ultras then they just leave and comeback 30 minutes after
Report them. Even though botters is normal and I accept that, botters should be mindful when they use them, moreover if it directly impact other player
Keep it up fam I want to see you in aqw infinity as well 😊
6:35 🤣🤣🤣 Nah man they are clearly super saiyans moving on super speed 😂
i miss this game its been years since i played sadly my account is already banned cause it got hacked. wish i could play this again with my old account dont wanna start from the start again.
Recently got a level 20 acc of mine to lv 90 with legiong revenant in 5 days
@@lawrenceluong3936 thats nice but as someone who doesnt spend i think its no fun anymore
Personally I usually only use ahk scripts to press a sequences of skills so I don't need to actually press it as I remember doing the LR quest and my fingers were giving up on me at one point. I had enough from there. While I don't usually use a more advanced bot to teleport around to play as I do like looking at maps and the art though.
I am not against it. There are people who are capable of making their own bots by reading through the quest info and getting the ids and stuff. Also it is done as some of the requirements in quests are like killing the same monster or mob for like 10k times, which takes a lot of time and is boring as hell. A simple option like auto kill would be game changing. Surely people cant do ultras with it so there are still stuff people must do manually.
if AQW announce accept botting , I think player will grown to 5 -6k per day,
For me personally is to grindy, and now that i v grown up and i have a job and other priorities, i don t have enough time at all to farm how i used to do so yea, for me personally i need to use that bot
@@krong-bi2ewTotally agree, just dont play lol, botters everywhere ruining comps and just spamming 1 skill just hoarding the room and taking space for actual players to farm
i dont bot in ultras,i only bot for smal normal mobs and soem bosses that my tk class can kill, other than that no, but then again i just simply don t have time to farm for some stuff that i want so yea..i can t rly not bot tbh :/ it s rly impossible for me atleast pls try to understand( i personally would ve not botted but the amount of grinding makes me to sadly) imo if u want to play normaly or bot it doesn t matter as long as at the end of the day after u achive what u farmed for u fell happy for it
@@krong-bi2ew
@@lifeisoverrated236 hoarding the room? you can just go to a private room. how is that a problem lol
@@raphael1106 Talking about boss rooms like ultraalteon and others where its much faster as a team rather than doin it alone. The botters make such farm much slower than it actually should be
I mean my tk while booting can solo ultra atleon lmao@@lifeisoverrated236
They should put auto attck and auto turn the quest. Some farming quest so long and you get bored clicking the keyborad for 1hr.
What bit are you guys using now? I played in 2014 and lost my account. No way I’m honestly grinding those items the legit way this time around. Please send me bot names
I've downloaded Grimlite Rev for a brand new account just for some tests, it's really useful if you don't have time for end game items or even playing the whole game, there are scripts for a lot things in game
You should look into Grimlite or skua
@@BadBoyBobby1 thanks, i have grimelite
As much as I like playing aqw after coming back to try it again after a couple years I can't sit there killing the same monsters a couple hundred times so I ended up downloading a auto key presser and have it pressing 1 through 5 😂 it works for adds and some bosses but I actually like killing the bosses my self
I came back to the game about 6 months ago, 14 year account. Told myself I wouldn't bot and try to play legit. Played for about a day and said FUCK THIS and downloaded SKUA lol. At the end of the day it's an 08 flash game MMO with no engaging gameplay paired with some of the most insane farms I've ever seen in a video game. I can't comprehend how somebody could legitimately farm for these endgame items. It's mind numbingly boring and repetitive, but in order to look cool and deal max damage (NSOD/VHL for example) you HAVE to do these farms. Now I have basically every single endgame item one could want, hell, I got hollowborn caladbolg in two days. I really only play for the nostalgia and the occasional ultra boss.
Broo!! I didn't know there is botters. i farmed for VdK, VhL and DoT for a year and a half, before that i even farmed for YnR for half a yr. Thats just YnR didnt even include the waiting for free ACs so i could buy the undead warrior
I was banned for 3 days due to botting. I just think the farms are so tedious and boring that it insentivises botting too much. Like why should I be forced to spam my abilities for 10 hours. If the farms were more "quest based" and "progression based" where you can enjoy the story and not spam as much ,I would absoluetly not bot.
literally just said this today:
Add auto farm/ bot options, and people will play more, it will spike in popularity, just make it like afk arena bro xd
but not turn based.
Just returned and Now I wish I botted sadly there are no bots available
I don't have problems with botter because that was like 90% of the players even if they said "they never bots" or "they hate bots" (Not trying to be hypocrite) cause i also bots sometimes if i play on internet cafe (cause i don't have pc, im puffin players) The only problem with botters is that they botting the daily quest at the /Void party bosses
I just bot anytime I can't play.
I have 6 heropoints that were given to me by the game, but i have no idea which calendar class to get there are so many choices. Any recommendations? Any overpowered heropoint classes?
every chrono class are overpowered. it just depends on what you need.
on farming u have ncm.
on highest nuke solo and party TCM
on highest nuke party CDK
on party damage QCM
others.
personally I would recommend QCM since you will need it on most ultra bosses.
My favorite personally is Necromatic Chronomancer, its good for farming, AOE and has good sustain. Its not good for boss fighting, but ill be honest the class can do 95% of the content.
Time keeper best soloing class
I do my ultras, I farm gold, legion tokens, and nulgath stuff, do story and releases normally with my friends and guild.
but I do use bots for tedious stuff while I work, or spend time with my wife and kids, I'm not gonna stand still killing the same guy 50.000 times for hours just to get a 51% weapon...
if you play legit, congrats?
I just feel like its a waste of time if you are doing it alone.
If you want more players and less botters then Artix has to promote and sdvertise the fame ro young kids that have time to actually play the game.
I think they should make bot as feature,
i just bot almost everything
not like how i use to be that grinds everything with so much time during my high school days 😂
they should integrate a bot menu in the game at this point but make it pay to use like what other games do 😂
this game just isn't worth the grind. it was back in the day. it was fun. engaging. now it's just the same mid crap every single release. not even hard farms. just tedious and long for absolutely no reason. i'd rather have farming dailies than having to literally grind for an item that's simply not worth the grind.
Wilkinson Crossroad
its not like botting is ruining the game to other players
its true that the items that are hard to farm will lose its worth
but it cant be compare to other games hacks botting doesnt ruin the game to other players.
is like 70% of the players are botting, keeping the game alive everytime I go and grind for items I see people tping everywhere VHL attacking from distamces despite having short range attacks (some infinite)..
I just play in Safiria not because of bots but because of high ping
Ashlynn Squares
If they want to bot go ahead but don't bot on ultra boss is so dumb tbh and get ppl to report you xD
ngl i part time bot somewhat. whenever im working or dont want to sit there spamming 4325 ad nauseam on lr while doing some farms, or 241114321142113 on tk where if i mess up once or twice my damage is damn near halved while doing high hp bosses. if they just added a macro option in game i would be happy.

AE should allow idling tbh but their so money hungry that it won't even happen if AE keeps banning bots not a soul will keep playing AQW forever and AE would lose all the people that they owned like botting never hurt anyone it's just people rather not do things legit and just let the bot do it cause it get's extremely boring on AQW that's why some of the many has left it for years until they re-visit again so AE should allow something cause if they allowed AQW lite into their game they should also allow AFK farming auto fight and auto use skills
i mean i have been botting for years now they stopped banning as long u dont open/do some shops/quest
@@varkusor6899 u weren't specific when u say open/do and shops/quest what u mean by that
@@scarykirby4763 Grimoire has an option to open any shop you want. Like , you can buy nulgath birthday pet in september , 2012 shops , etc. I don't know english , i tryed my best to explain for you.
@@scarykirby4763 I think he means that some people bot shops and quests that shouldnt be available or arent anymore
AQW Died cuz of this hardcore grinds but uninteresting due to easy but repetitive
without bot i feel like this game is similar to cookies clicker mod.

Ellsworth Rest
AE should have made it into an idle game
Just ae should add a bot achievement so anyone that bots will be seen as a botter that did not earn item's like nsod i earned nsod with no botting
Honestly, that would kill the game on the same level as when they banned all bots at one time back in 2021.
Mills Forge
AQW would die if they perma ban botters.
from 20k players on to 5k after 2012.
i only bot ridiculous farming quest like killing boss thousand times or farming million of items hahahaha
Hoppe Villages
they just make AQW an idle game like other games in mobile cuz you can't auto on ultra and grinding items is boring
I Agree!
Elmo Common
a lot of mmorpg has auto play why shouldnt they just add that?
Can anyone link me a working XP BOT, please?
just auto clicker or macros
Amateurs, dont they realize you're supposed to go into private rooms? 😂 (Current account is legit but i was part of the first ban wave back in 2012 on my old account) Account: Ziz
I just got a 72hr for using an auto clicker…
In a public room?
30%? HAHAH nice cope... more like 99.5%
The game is bad thats why ppl are botting but they can't bot on raids and ultra so it's okay
Russ Fort
If they add legal botting this game will die.
commenter: "i think ultras helped alot a againts botters". Hahaha heck no dude. I can literally solo Ultra Speaker or all ultras at that with my 4 accs and the only ultra i bot in the game is Malgor because theres so many stupid and/or inexperienced players in there its so concentrated. Though i dont hate inexperienced players i even teach if other PLAYERS in the room is patient but man oh man the stupids is on another level.
😂😂😂😂😂
don't be surprised you fool, Aqw lives on botters players. So it's boring to play unlike before, just playing solid😂
alot of the botting clients you find on youtube are viruses anyway
