I’m currently in Vern, checked 4 channels, saw like maybe 2 bots. Nobody will talk about it because it’s a positive.
Most channels look like this on Una.

It takes them a day after a client executable change to come back as they have to update the bots for the new offsets and any changes to the data. We get this post every week or two. Nothing’s been done about the bots.

I have saw a number of threads on it, so people are talking about it obviously.
I’m hopeful, but not going to get my hopes up too much. I quit the game around a month and a half ago because I got sick of seeing way more bots than actual players. I haven’t logged in since.
I will keep an eye on the forums and hope this lasts because I was really enjoying the game. But I refuse to play a game that has way more bots everywhere I look instead of actual players.

Now there are few/almost no bots. It had a gigantic banwave beyond the measures taken. There’s a post about it on the official “news” page 
EDIT: Yes, not all beserk and sorcerer are bots, sometimes you just saw a bad one.
They’re just words. The bots will be back at the end of the day like every week.
If you’re keeping an eye out on these forums to get your information on when you should come back, you’re doing something wrong.
This is the worst place for that.
This must happen on your server. On mine, I hardly see bots, so stopping playing because of that is at least funny. It’s like trying to catch 1 flaw, and justifying all your desire to play the game after riding the hype wave.
Just checked arthetine which is a bot hotspot
Already some back, and they seem to have a gained a new ability to walk through walls which they weren’t doing yesterday 
I see many threads and posts with people either reporting how bad they are or how it’s gotten better,
I’m not going to waste my time logging into the game just to later get disgusted when I see bots everywhere. I will continue to check here on occasion and see what people are reporting.
I’m an intelligent person and realize people sometimes aren’t completely honest and exaggerate in the game forums. I’m also intelligent enough to understand when I see thread after thread of people demanding something be done about all the bots, that this game still has a major problem. I’m also intelligent enough to understand that when the forums makes a shift to saying the bot situation is better and thanking AGS, that’s a plus and one can hope it lasts. I don’t expect it to though.
But thanks for your concern!
They started their bots on na west first
They are taking far longer than usual to get online though
Enviska server
When I quit playing about a month and a half ago I rarely saw a legitimate player anymore. I would get excited if I saw an actual person. Looking back, how pathetic was that?
Every channel was bots everywhere. I had played since the first day of early access.
I would love to know what server you are on where you never see bots. That’s absolutely amazing since many people have been complaining about them for months. I was on NA server east coast. What server are you so fortunate enough to be on that bots don’t exist? Even Amazon themselves have said in these forums many times now how it’s an ongoing problem that they are constantly combating. How is your server immune?
And look at the numbers people are posting since the latest ban wave. Hundreds of thousands less players than before. Down from around over 500k players to less than 160k.
Edited to add: Ride the hype wave you say? I wasn’t following this game. I had next to zero interest in it when I started. I was just looking for a new game to try and decided to try it spur of the moment. I initially wasn’t impressed with the click to move and over the head camera view. I decided to give the game more of a chance. I ended up liking it much more than I thought I would, until the bots took over anyways. I won’t play any game that has more bots running around than legitimate players. I don’t care how much I like it. It has nothing to do with riding a hype wave, especially since I definitely wasn’t ever hyped for Lost Ark.
Wow like after every patch, you don’t say. Clearly this time will be different, though. It’s not like we have this thread every week of course.
Meanwhile, here’s Vern on Rohendel right now, starting to fill up with updated bots, like after every patch.

There were spikes well over 550k players. This is 300k players that aren’t here. This is a metric ton of banned bots. Seems like a lot of damage was done and its taking time to come back. When I get back from work I’ll see if the numbers change and if it impacted the crystal prices.
Not interested in cropped pictures that can’t even keep the server time and date in there.
Arcturus S.A. Believe me, there are almost no bots. But in any case, if you played 1 and a half months you didn’t see anything of the game, you just got really tired. MMORPG is that, most people don’t like it. Lost ark doesn’t have enough flaws for a person to say the game is bad, for example. She may just not like it and that’s okay.
Ignore him. All He Do is talk Bad about the game and seeks attention. Literally in every Post u See him He flames the game.
Let’s talk about addiction because this guy is something Else.
When dp u apes stop using pictures from other people to make a useless point in your bottalk? This Ship picture Was postet literally 4 hours ago by someone Else and u use it as it is from yourself.
See some help u addict. All u Do is badmouth the game the whole day.
