Path of Exile 2

Start banning trade bots
We're not even a week into league and the bots are already in overdrive. GG should do more to keep these types out of the game.

how you know they are bots? have a bottrap to share?

This is why the economy reset is pointless if they dont deal with the botters first.

I often prefer trade bots over regular traders, as trade bots are much more likely to actually answer you and actually trade you the item you wanted to get. Nothing is more annoying than whispering to many players without any of them answering.
If they simply made an in game trade market similar to the currency exchange, that would essentially end the bots. If you post something cheap, people should be able to directly buy it, instead of having to wade to pages of non responsive people before getting to a real seller/buyer

Since they didnt do it fo poe 1 i doubt they will ever do it for 2, its a deliberate decision at this point.

No they wont. there is a video about it. Basicly the less restiance to trades, the more bots.

many hear about bots, and start hearing bots in the walls.

if you actually belive bots hit you up too often. your price is to low. if you are buying from a bot. it had the best price for what you want

I'm watching the same five accounts sell the same item over and over on live search. Pretty sure they're botting it at this point.

That doesn't mean that there isn't an infestation of mainly chinese bot accounts trying to farm up currency to sell for cash online. As frequently seen in PoE1

Imagine you have a guild of 10-15 people that farm currency.

In these 10-15 you will always find at least 1 or 2 that spend most of their time trading.


Just to give you an idea, i have a friend who play poe but doesn't really play. His guildmates bring currency to him and he essentially double their currency by spending all his time trading for them...
